Friend weekend

This was a perfect location for our girls paddle weekend!!! It’s a quick launch to either Rainbow River or the Withlacoochee and we enjoyed both over several days. The house was comfy and quirky like most river rentals. My only negative was the 2nd downstairs “bedroom” was very uncomfortable for the friend that ended up staying in that one. There was almost no air, with very low ceiling and just a basement feel. As an all adult group of women, that was sort of a bummer. The 2nd king room downstairs was gorgeous with all new furniture, full views of the river and a stark contrast the the other space. Great spot to pop out for food or shopping and perfect if you’re planning to be on the water.

Nice River Home

The home is a spacious, rambling old place that features the fun surprise of a room designed as a bar. The upper deck of the dock looked questionably stable and provided no shade, but we swam and kayaked from the lower dock. We did not see kayaks listed as available and never received an answer about them, so we brought our own, but 3 were on property. I have never used a wood burning grill and was unable to start the one there, despite buying wood pellets and reading instructions, so that was disappointing. Overall, nice location, fun house.

Relaxing retreat

Very nice accommodations! The beds were comfortable, bathrooms were very nicely updated. The location and view was excellent. The highlight for us was sitting on the screened in porch enjoying morning coffee watching the alligators and otters in the river below.

Kayaking trip with friends

We had nine adults staying for a week of kayaking at the nearby springs. Plenty of space for meals and game time at night. Living areas very adequate for this size group and home well equipped and very clean. Location very convenient to everything we needed and in walking distance to art gallery, garden and antique shops and restaurants. Great home!

Riverview House

We rented this house to relax after a busy traveling work week and the hustle of the holidays. Needless to say it wasn't what we expected. We had issues with unlocking the keyless entry due to the batteries were dead. Then, our 1st night we froze because half the heat was out and inside the house was 54 degrees. The next morning we reached out to the property manager and he did call someone out to look at the issue. Well, after a long day of kayaking we got back to the house exhausted and wanted to chill before dinner. The property manager left as soon as we got there stating he didn't need to be there anymore and left us for hours with the tech. 4 hours later the tech is still there and we're just waiting for the tech to leave or the property manager to come back as it was not our responsibility to stay with this guy. We rented this house to not have to worry about anything. Eventually we called the property manager to see if he was coming back so we can go to dinner. He didn't answer and we had to call multiple times until he finally picked up just to tell us to leave the guy in the house that "he trusted" the company. I wasn't happy about this one bit. However, starvation took over and we needed food. So we left. We received a text while at dinner that the tech wasnt able to fix the heat that weekend and would return on Monday after we leave..I understand issues happen but the property manager didn't offer to supply heaters or anything. Overall experience not good.

Would return in a heartbeat!

Older home on beautiful lot, lots of charm and space. Great kitchen to cook in. Two bedrooms were small but workable with plenty of space nearby if needed. The half bath has a low ceiling. Wonderful screened porch and views. Totally enjoyed our stay.

We were so impressed. The house was either newly renovated or kept in immaculate condition. The beds were surprisingly comfortable and every comfort was made available. I would recommend this property to anyone.

Dunnellon Dream Home

A beautiful spacious house on a clear river. We fished and swam in the river just a few steps out of the back door. We also went to a few springs nearby. Next time we will have to stay longer so we can enjoy more of the surrounding springs in the area.
