Set on stilts at the peaceful confluence of the sacred Santa Fe and Ichetucknee Rivers, this home is tucked within a private, tree-filled community with access to riverside parks. The home features a king primary suite with garden tub and shower, three guest rooms across upper levels, and an on-site space offering massage, acupuncture, and sound healing by request. The private dock on the Santa Fe River is also just steps away from the mouth of the Ichetucknee and a private park for swimming in the clear Ichetucknee waters. Ground level kitchen with outdoor grill that is equipped with gas, charcoal and wood chip smoking features to smoke the mullet that you catch off the private dock. Also the home boasts boardgames, art supplies, and a firepit for family and friend bonding during your retreat. The Santa Fe is known for mullet and bass fishing, bird watching, and even manatees in the winter while the Ichetucknee is known for its crystal clear waters yearround. Perfect for families, groups, or wellness getaways, this spacious retreat offers a variety of comfortable sleeping arrangements: 1 King Bed (Master) 2 Queen Beds (2nd floor) 10 Twin Beds 1 Futon (downstairs outside) 1 Corduroy Full Mattress Bean bag 1 Folding Chair Mattress Whether you’re gathering with loved ones, reconnecting with nature, or seeking a quiet place to rest, reflect, and renew, this riverside home provides the ideal setting. Spend your mornings listening to the flow of the water while identifying the many species of birds and fish, your afternoons exploring the natural springs and nearby trails, and your evenings relaxing under the stars listening to the mullet jump in the river while watching the stars fall across the night sky. At the Healing River Retreat, you’ll find more than a place to stay — you’ll discover a peaceful riverfront sanctuary where you can truly rest, reconnect, and rejuvenate. For a deeper healing experience, you can book sessions in our on-site massage, acupuncture, and sound healing space. Prepare meals in the fully equipped kitchen or hire a private chef to cook for you. Families can arrange a specialized nanny for kid-friendly adventures, or hire professional photographers to capture special moments.
