We had a great time staying here . Its located in the middle of the national forest so theres not much around. Very rural and quiet. Theres a few different springs in the area that are absolutely beautiful. We got to see deer,turkey and even a bear. The host were amazing.

Peaceful

Casual property with all the necessary amenities. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the birds in the morning with our coffee. Enjoyed a canoe paddle in Salt Springs and a short hike down the yearling trail (went at the wrong time of day so was too hot).

Great place to stay very comfy beds and plenty of space!

We really enjoyed staying here. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space. Anastasia was a wonderful hostess and got back to me immmediately with all our questions. One word of advice - understand when you are going to this area there is not a Publix within miles. This is a quaint little town with a country market. So if you are from the city like us don't be surprised!! It is close to so many beautiful springs and horseback riding it is a must book!!

Forest Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our short getaways usually involve day hikes followed by quiet evenings on a screened porch. This area and specifically this home fit the bill perfectly. The king bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed for meal prep. The large yard was abundant with birds and natural beauty. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you very much!

Cute and clean

Bright and airy property. Everything was clean and the beds were comfy. The bathroom connects to the master on one side and to the hallway where the 2nd bedroom is on the other side. Fyi, You need to be very tall to turn on the lights for the fire pit, even with a step stool we couldn't reach it and had to call a friend. They had comfy BBQ chairs ready to use and we enjoyed some smores. There were a lot of bugs near the front door, so better to keep porch light off. Easy check in & checkout, host was helpful and responsive. The entire area has little cell reception so plan ahead.
