My family was unable to join me due to unforeseen circumstances. I spoke with Ray and he said we could reschedule our vacation. I am very grateful to him for this!

The backyard is amazing- the owner/lister lives on property

It was hard to get the kids off the rope swing and jumping off the back dock. When they did, they played hide and seek for hours inside the house while the parents relaxed and enjoyed ourselves. We did s’mores by the fire very night too. There’s a Big Green Egg for serious smoking/grilling. Great location on the river. Tubing and kayaking were awesome. We end every summer with a 4 day Rainbow River vacation and will definitely be back next year.

Ray the owner was very helpful through the process. The house is great for large groups and the river is beautiful. I would recommend for any family or friend group. We will be back I hope.

This was great place for our family vacation. It had plenty of room for us to all hang out inside and out. We were all able to slept comfortably in our own rooms. Their were also plenty of stuff to do from taking out the pontoon boat, paddler boards and kayaks that all came with the rental to the game room that has ping-pong, air hockey and foosball. It has a very large up-to-date kitchen with two stoves that came in handy for the amount of people we were cooking for. We also got A lot of use out of the Green Egg smoker and the propane grill that was there. The only negatives were we had no access to a washer/dryer and not all the room had closets and drawers to put our clothes away. We had a wonderful time and are already talking about our next family get together being here.

All the kids loved the property and the house. The game room was a hit, every room was so unique but also well noise protected. Incredible property and good communication with the owner. Kayaks, tubes and rope swing kept us all outdoors during the day and the lanai area with poker table kept the night life fun without disturbing neighbors. Great week!

Our family had a great time . Rooms provide privacy as they are spaced apart through out the home. Backyard sitting right on the beautiful Rainbow River.
5.0 / 5.0
This home is so unique. It is very large and like a maze, and honestly, I was lost for the first couple of days. You'll soon find out what I mean when you choose to vacation here. We loved it. The kids said this is a memorable one and their favorite family vacation ever. The Rainbow River is beautiful and having the kayaks, tubes and paddleboards, as well as the very large pontoon boat, to use at our leisure was awesome. And who doesn't love a rope swing. The kitchen is amazing. 2 coffee pots and another one downstairs. First time ever we didn't run out of coffee. We grilled every night. We enjoyed game time on the deck in the evenings. Built a fire for smores. We also were able to set up a badminton net for some family competitions in the backyard. The entire weekend is one to remember and I know we will talk about the house and all its quirks for a very long time. Thank you Mr. Shelton for sharing your home with us!

Are we ever so grateful for following through with our stay at The Lodge. We had an absolute blast. The house is fun and the kitchen is the best ever; we so enjoyed cooking and socializing in the kitchen. The Pontoon boat, SUP boards, kayaks....wonderful! And the rope swing!! I never thought the kids would stop using it!! Oh....the penthouse...aka...loft room....my haven.
Thank you Mr. Shelton for the fabulous opportunity to enjoy every moment of our weekend at the Rainbow River! Such a Florida treasure!

I loved the property. Perfect for a large group.
Had one issue, No washer and dryer. I understand it wasnt listed on website but never dreamed that you wouldnt have them. If I would have known , that would of been a deal breaker.
