This was our second time staying here. When we decide to return we will definitely stay here again. Rooms are clean, staff is friendly, laundry on site and shops across the street and fishing right outside the room.
Check in was easy. Email said to just walk into the unit. Spacious and clean unit. Canoeing and fishing was fun. Really enjoyed the outdoor screened deck. We'll be back.
Parking was great, kitchen had the basics and we had no issues cooking. Bed was comfy and the AC worked beautifully. The view was spectacular! The only thing I missed was a hair dryer as I forgot to travel with one.

It is a lovely cabin in a lovely place. A peaceful piece of Old Florida.
A very clean and comfortable stay in the 2-bedroom cabin! While it is a bit outdated and "lived in", our cabin was spotless and very clean (which is more important in my opinion!). My family of 4 had plenty of room to move around, and the Master bedroom was extremely spacious. Check-in was very easy and our room was ready ahead of time. Parking right under our room was great. Would definitely stay here again!

Staff was very helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Setting is very nice.
Particularly great for boaters and fishermen. AC worked well - not handicap accessible as you have to climb stairs. Very peaceful.

Overall, nice stay.
Bugs are horrible so I would recommend winter. We got why we didn't see many people outside!
Cabins look a little run down from the outside and on the main road, but we very happily surprised when we got it, beds are comfortable, and all is clean. A little disappointed we couldn't get in prior to 4 to put our stuff, since almost the whole place was empty. Thanks for providing all necessary kitchen equipment, a new sponge, and coffee!
Captain Jack was great for airboat tours, Rod and Gun was great for the old charm, food and drinks on the water, Triad great for lunch, Athena was super at the visitor center.

The cabin was spacious with full kitchen and a screened in deck. The cabin was elevated the car park was directly under the cabin. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Both main rooms had effective A/C. The staff was also helpful and connected us to local 2 hr boat tour that was really special. It was a unique experience.

Cabin was clean and in good order. But the best part was the view from the back deck. How nice to look out over the water in the morning and watch the sun rise plus have so many different birds fly by. Complimentary canoes and bicycles also were such a nice addition. If you like quiet you'll love this place. Plus the lady in the office gave us such good advice as to what boat tours to take and we were especially satifsfied with that. We would definately stay here again.
