About this house rental
This pristine area is located on the St. Johns River in the heart of the Ocala Forest. Imagine a drift in time to a Florida that few experience. Gentle breezes & fresh sweet air with the hint of blossoms smells from some far off grove hidden in the dense tropical forest. Canoeing with such a vast variety of birds too many to name. Alligators patrolling the shores looking for fish peeking from under the water hyacinths. Sounds of nature like a symphony to hear.

This property looks good from the picture but everything is broken. Half missing wall pepper leaking roof and porches the furniture is broken and made to look intact. The house smells like cat urine. The grill was bungeed together and as soon as I touched it, it fell apart. The Sauna and Hot tub are not usable the showers are moldy and if you rock them they will cause a leak the walls in the master bathroom are bowed form water damage with paneling put over to hide. the cabinets are falling apart with paper over them so you don’t see the rot in the wood. The back porch unusable with old broken furniture cat food, and animal traps. The couches are scratched up and smell like at urine. I cleaned for 3 days upon arrival. If you have small children. DO NOT bring them here I had to install latches on all the doors as none of them close properly. Cabinets are missing doors windows have pieces of foam filling the gaps where they don’t close. The gates are loose and not safe for animals to be in the yard alone. Then the host will make you pay for their home thats falling apart.

Nice locatio
My wife and I enjoyed are stay. Location could have used a more thorough cleaning before we arrived but Denise was gracious when responding to that concern and I realize that cleaning personnel can sometimes get lax. Overall the property and price was very nice.

We had a great time while staying at this property. It was a guys trip and the most important things for us are location on the river, a good place to park our boats, and a comfortable place to eat and sleep. This house had all of that.

Quaint house on the river
The house was very eclectic with a mix of new upgrades, and older touches. The outside space was amazing. I fell in love with the huge window that looks out on the river. Using the steam showers were great, I felt like I was stepping into a time
machine!! Everything was comfortable and we had a very enjoyable stay!

The home is directly on the water, with a beautiful yard and patio furniture. It's in a very nice quiet community. The only noise we heard was from boats going by. Unfortunately the hot tub, sauna and clothes dryer were not working. It had rained a few days before we arrived and the roof leaked on the hot tub porch and the carpet was soaked. The house also needed a serious cleaning. Under the conditions we only stayed for one night. The owner offered a free week once the problems were corrected.

Nothing less than perfect
I cannot say enough about our stay. We traveled with 6 teens from 12-20 and they are already planning our next trip. The location is perfect close to the springs, state parks and only 30 minutes to Daytona Beach. Spent the majority of our time on the lawn watching the river, the kids fish, the manatees play and even the alligator. The house had plenty of room for all 8 of us and the beds are like sleeping on a cloud. We didn't want to leave so we stayed an extra night. The host is amazing! Must try Williams Landing for dinner, it was fabulous . Overall for the price you couldn't ask for anything more. We will definitely be back again!

Great Location
We only stayed a couple of days but the location was great. The kids caught some bass right from the sea wall and the house was well equipped. Could tell the owner cared for the property and communicated well.

Great location on the St John's River
We enjoyed our stay - especially seeing manatees eating in the canal right outside. The screened porches and yard were a hit with my kids. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space for our family to spread out.

The location of the property is great in that it's directly on the St. John's River. We enjoyed the yard with its large oak trees. The house is spacious. However, we felt that the property could use a deep cleaning and some editing as it relates to furniture and family belongings. In some ways it felt like Aunt Sally might come out of the extra bedroom because of all the artifacts in the home. We saw several roaches in the kitchen and bathrooms. Unfortunately we were not able to use the hot tub (spa) because it was broken all week. The laundry room was flooded and unusable during our week there. Additionally, the roof leaked during a rain over one of the porches. The owners are nice and responsive; offering us a free weekend for our troubles with the hot tub, but we would not want to visit the property again. We ended up leaving a day early because of the roaches, and even though we communicated that to the owners, we have had no response.
