Natural Florida!
I have been coming here for years and always have a great time! Beautiful spot on the river, peaceful, setting, and a beautiful home! Over the years, I’ve seen abundant wildlife, manatees, alligators, and otters. To be, this is how Florida is supposed to be!

Just lovely
Truly a beautiful property. We fish and kayak and were able to do both without leaving the yard.! House had everything you could want for a comfortable stay. I would say the wi-fi was spotty..if you are depending on that for work. Easily one of the cleanest well equipped places we have rented, oh, and the view……incredible.
