Awesome for fishing

The Otter House is really nice, spacious and comfortable. The view of the river is spectacular. My husband fished from the dock the entire stay and caught LOTS of fish. Used nightcrawlers on the bottom. The yard was really nice for the dog. The restaurant down the street had great food.

A Peaceful Stay on the Suwanee River

Our family enjoyed the property and spent a lot of time on the dock. The house was nicely decorated and well-appointed. A bonus was the nice little restaurant right down the street. The location is close to both Manatee Springs and Cedar Key, so we used it as a home base to explore the area. We would definitely stay again, thank you for the pleasant experience!

Anniversary stay

Property was clean and well maintained. Instruction for closing up were very simple and straight forward. I did not flip the circuit breaker for the water heater as it was on when we arrived.

Quiet & Cozy

We had a wonderful week stay! We came from Ohio and found delight in the warm weather and did tons of day trips within 1 hour of this house. The house was set up with 3 bedrooms, although 1 of them is connected. So to use the bathroom, you have to walk through the other bedroom. We loved the fully equipped kitchen, keypad door lock, and the beds were very comfortable! There was a lot of pet hair in some areas, and underneath furniture, but overall fairly clean. The dock was really close to the house and a great place to look in the water and fish. We loved the area and most of all no snow!
