Absolutely amazing

The house itself was laid out beautifully, lots of space. The river access in the back of the house was amazing. The water was crystal clear. The kids were able to swim and snorkel right off the back deck. We also got to see a manatee swim by one morning.. I would absolutely recommend this property to anybody who is debating, just do it ! You won’t regret it. We made So many Amazing memories with family and friends. Thank you so much to the hosts who made everything so easy and enjoyable..

Tranquil getaway

This home is perfect for a relaxing a getaway. Joe was extremely friendly and easy to work with. We brought our paddle boards and enjoyed cruising up and down the river all day.

Ideal Location

Being right on the Ichetucknee River and a stones throw from Hodor Park is ideal. The property is also a nice open layout and is comfortable. Great place to stay for the area.
