Royal Springs Riverfront Retreat on 3 acres, kayak/canoe, boat ramp, huge decks!

Royal Springs River House Retreat aka "The Treehouse"

This 3 acre Retreat is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath stilt house with epic breezes and views of the historic Suwannee River, with huge wrap around deck, covered screened room with breakfast bar, and large Florida room aka the game room. It has multiple picnic tables, outside grill, fire pit, hammocks, and benches for relaxing by the fire, or by the river, all overlooking a huge backyard and natural river view.

Bring a picnic lunch and walk to Royal Springs and jump off the dock into the crystal clear blue/green spring. Bring your boat or jet ski as there is a boat ramp at the spring as well. Kayak up and down the river and discover the hidden springs nearby.

Go spring hopping to some of the many beautiful springs in the area, such as Little River Spring, Peacock Springs, Charles Springs, and be sure to tube the lazy river at Ichetucknee Springs.

Some additional amenities that it has to offer include:

- Wifi

- Large screen TV

- Coffee bar (Keurig with 12 cup pot and/or single pod option), blender and toaster

- Over 2,000 sq ft under air

- Covered front porch, 125 sq ft screened porch, and large wrap around deck overlooking the river

- Game room with foosball table, Pac Man 12 in 1 arcade game, chess, checkers, backgammon and light workout equipment.

- Reach out to me about kayaks, canoe and paddleboard availability and reservations.

- The basics such as plates, utensils, cups, pots and pans, pizza sheet and cutter, seasonings, etc.

- Washing machine and clothes dryer

- Concert and music lovers: Spirit of Suwannee Music Park is 1/2 hour north in Live Oak

Suwanee River Getaway
We were in town for a couple of days and wanted to stay on the Suwanee river. This property provided great access to the river and was a peaceful setting in a country area. We traveled to Lake City both days which is a 40 minute drive but it was nice to stay here as opposed to a hotel by the highway. Our

Thanksgiving retreat
This property and location were a fabulous retreat for our family. There was wood for the fire pit, canoes and kayaks easily accessible and very close to many natural springs. View of the river from the kitchen window! Plenty of space in the house for indoor activities too. Plenty of space for 4 adults to be together or go off on their own. We were all very comfortable and we could easily stay there again. We have never stayed in this part of Florida before and we loved it! Lisa and Dave

This is a very spacious modular home in a beautiful setting on the Suwanee river. It is remote and private in rural Florida. Comfortable beds, good water pressure, fully equipped kitchen, good smart TV and wifi.The master bath shower is pretty small. There was a fun fire pit between the house and the river. Our host was very responsive and lived in the vicinity. She brought us fresh eggs. We got the impression we might be some of the first renters, and they were very welcoming of feedback. The property is close to a park with springs and river access, although we did not personally use the kayaks or canoes.
