This property was exactly as described and a perfect example of a hidden gem in some of the most beautiful old Florida scenery you could ask for. All the amenities you need and perfectly located! Will definitely be back here!
Pool for swimming, IF you are afraid of swimming with the St Johns River creatures. A canal for fishing with all the after fishing perks. Loads of seating areas outside for talking, games, eating, sunning, reading..... There is even a lone bench, I called the "discipline bench", if you have a child OR adult that needs a timeout! A huge deck over the canal and you can even do some "Florida Glamping" in the bunkhouse. IT IS a "Backyard Oasis"!!!!
The overall experience was great. The property was beautiful, with some cosmetic improvements that needed to be tended to. We didnât have access to deck because it was under construction; however, my family enjoyed the backyard amenities. The pool was amazing, and just the right size for my family. The main house was spacious, and the second home on the property was super cute, and it offered additional space. There is a TV in the second home; however, it doesnât have cable. I have AT&T, and my service was horrible there, unless I walked out in the front yard. Overall, I absolutely loved this place. I would refer my relatives/friends.
This place was AMAZING! The backyard has everything you could possibly want, pool, fishing, plenty of hang out area! Bunk house was great for the kids- adult kids that is! The house is just as great with all the space in the kitchen and living room! I really canât say enough to describe how fun, clean, stocked this place is! Donât make plans because you wonât want to leave!
Property was just as advertised. Spacious with plenty of beds. The pool was gerat for after fishing all day.I would definitely stay again and recommend to others.
This was our second time staying at this property... Did not disappoint! The space was what needed and more. Looking forward to our next trip in the fall.
Everything that is shown for this property was accurate. The interior of the house was comfortable and accommodating. The Exterior is everything a group could want. Fun for the kids in the pool and dock space for multiple boats. Book this place and you wonât be disappointed.
My large family has enjoyed our stay so much!!! We were so relaxed and at home immediately. The space was plenty big enough for all of us (11 people), and we didn't feel cramped. Jackie has been the absolute best host. We will be coming back! Thank you so much for the hospitality, we are forever grateful for an amazing and comfy vacation. Plus the fishing was awesome!!!!!!
Love,
The very large Hoke family
from North Carolina and Illinois
From the beginning, the hosts were very hospitable and helpful! We were able to easily fit 3 boats at the docks and store the trailers in the driveways... In addition to 4 vehicles. The house was arrange wonderfully and we enjoyed the amenities, especially the ice machine! We will be back.
We had a great stay. Property has great space inside and out. Huge patio are and on the canal with boat available. We will definitely want to stay here again.
We had a wedding to attend at Ever After Farms and Vineyard. The location was in perfect proximity to the venue. We had a great time on the patio and in the pool. We had a great cookout, and if the weather was better, we would have rented the pontoon boat! Great time. Would definitely recommend!!
Enjoyed the home very much, had trouble with the small tvs needing pass codes to use, could have probably reached out for help but later in the evening before wanting To use so decided not to bother but everything else was superb
Each time we visit this property we meet locals and neighbors. They are friendly and we learn about places to fish or what the area was like 30 years ago. My spouse and I chose to have a peaceful week enjoying the pool and beautiful outdoor area this property has. The house is always clean
Description and pictures were exactly as described on listing. The back yard has plenty of outdoor furniture and the dock was great to have with access to tje river.
Our family had a wonderful stay. We enjoyed the backyard, played games, made sâmores, the guys went fishing and tubing. Just a great a family getaway overall. Felt like home away from home.
Our annual family trip was a huge success! The house was perfect and the back yard was amazing! Very secluded and so many areas to hang out! Very comfortable for a family of 9. We decided to rent the pontoon boat and it was the icing on the cake. The grandkids loved riding the river and fishing. Georgia Boys fish camp is just 1 canal over so it was super easy to get bait and gas up the boat. Corky Bells is always a must when we are in town for some good seafood and they did not disappoint. You can stop and eat while out riding on the boat, just pull up to the dock! Besides the back yard my second favorite spot was definitely the kitchen! Lots of space for the grandkids to hang out while I cooked and very well stocked!
House and pool was nice, had all our kitchen needs for cooking. You can launch your boat one canal over at GA Boys for a $10 launch fee. Boat slip at the house was a big plus for our 19ft bay boat. Salt Springs is about an hour boat ride away. Kids will have fun catching tiny blue gills with worms (get at GA boys) at the dock. Kayaking was good down the canals, they are quiet and the main run was not too busy either. We ordered from Instacart (publix) twice, so that was very convenient. Plenty of space in the back, many options to lounge in the sun or in the shade.
