About this property

Rainbow River Getaway

Location location! If you want to be very close to the river with full access to the park, but not pay to be on the water this is it! This is a two bedroom with one and a half bathrooms on a huge 1/2 acre lot. The huge backyard is completely fenced in and we have a golf cart and kayaks and paddle boards available for your use. Our home is located two blocks from our community park that is located ON THE Rainbow River. The park has a boat ramp, grills, pavilions and a volleyball net. In order to drive to the park you will need a key to the gate. There is no fee unless the key is lost then there is a $300 lost key fee.

The home is fully furnished with two new Queen beds, a twin bed and a super comfy folding twin mattress that can be put in the living room. We have all of the necessary kitchen appliances such as a blender, toaster, coffee maker, crock pot, dishes and cookware.

Sit on the front porch and listen to the birds in this quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We are located one mile away from the popular KP Hole where you can tube or kayak or canoe down the beautiful crystal clear Rainbow River and ten minute from Rainbow River State park!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Our stay in Dunnellon

We had a wonderful experience staying at the rental. The weather was a little finicky while we were there and the house and screened in porch were very comfy. The beds were comfortable, and the house was nice and clean. Over all it was a great stay.

Family Time

We had such a great time! Our trip started off a little rocky with my husband being sick for the first 3 days so that was a bummer but we still made the best of it. The place was just what we needed for our family of 4 and our dog Caya! Richard and Leslie were amazingly transparent and were so wonderful. We had the pleasure of meeting them. They gave us great suggestions. We enjoyed days on the river. Rowing up the river and then drifting back down. They were so gracious in letting us use their river toys! The place was nice and clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting out on the screened in porch in the mornings and evenings. The backyard was perfect for our frisbee dog Caya! We can’t wait to come back for another visit!

Depends

This property’s suitability for you will depend on what you will use it for. If you will be out on one of the areas rivers or other attractions all day and want a place to keep the party going until you go to sleep, then repeat, this place may be for you. My wife and I were in town to visit family, chill, and for me to do a little spring turkey hunting. The neighborhood is a little hit or miss. Some properties were very well cared for, some had uncut grass and junk at the end of the driveway. Literally junk that they obviously hadn’t made arrangements for someone to pick up. This property was well cared for. It is a trailer and we knew that before we booked. I have stayed in trailers that were homey and indistinguishable from a non mobile home. I have also stayed in trailers that I would describe as a hunting or fishing camp, or weekend retreat. This would be the latter. Outside photos may have helped us make a better decision. Now the good part. The fenced in back yard is large and our black Lab really enjoyed playing there. The front porch is really wonderful. It is screened in, has comfortable furniture, and is shaded by tall pines. We spent most afternoons there relaxing and visiting with family. It has a very nice fire pit in the front yard that we did not use even though the March weather was conducive to it. Most of the people we ran into while walking the dog were extremely nice. See other review about one very soft bed, one very firm. It is accurate. There you have it. Make an informed decision and enjoy your time in Dunnellon.

Great gem!

We are very familiar with Dunnellon and the rainbow river. This location is great as it about half-way between KP hole and the pickup location near Swampy's. KP hole charges 30$ per person (I believe) and you have to use their tubes. This neighborhood has great access to the river in their own community park. You can use your own tubes and a have a two-hour ride. The property was perfect for our needs, clean and economical. The hosts were prompt at answering our questions. We will return.

Long Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed our stay and loved the outdoor space they provide. It was clean and tidy, with a lot of extras (soaps, paper products, firewood). I would suggest they get new mattress for both Queens. One is super hard and the other you roll to the middle, but otherwise we really enjoyed the property and our stay.

Perfect location! Pet friendly! Take me back!!

My family and I spent my birthday weekend here over Labor Day and it was perfect from the moment we checked in. Actually even before that, communication with the host was quick, simple and informative. The use of the golf cart was key in helping us setup vehicles at the community area and the pick up area after the two hour float. It was so convenient we did it a few times in one day. They even had extra floats for use in the shed. And they put up a Happy Birthday banner for my arrival. :) I cannot wait to go back!!

We had such a great weekend. Plenty of room for 8 adults to sleep. Amenities were great. Essential supplies were provided and there is a Winn Dixie close by for any other necessities. Loved being able to walk to the park to go tubing on the river. Owners are extremely responsive and awesome to work with. Very accommodating during our trip!

About the host

Hosted by Leslie and Richard

Host profile image
Leslie and I have 6 kids between us, we purchased this place as a family retreat from our home in Tampa, FL. back in 2010. We have so many wonderful memories with the kids tubing down the river, exploring the trails, boating, fishing and relaxing in this natural paradise-- the rainbow river.

Now that our kids are in their 20's and starting theirs lives and careers we spend much less time and wish to share our wonderful experiences with others.

Why they chose this property

We are 3 blocks to the river and have full access to the 3 acre riverfront park. The location is the biggest can walk to the river, but you don't have to pay for the river front price! Also, we have a large 1/2 acre lot. Plenty of room to park, the back is fenced so the kids or pets can play out back. We have a screened porch and a firepit for evenings roasting marshmellows and watching the stars. Wonderful family adventures can be had at a reasonable price. We've providing everything you need to have kitchen is stocked, There are paper towels, clean linens, lots of pillows, blankets, soap, bring your bathing suit, and if you wish to cook we have a stocked kitchen.

What makes this property unique

We are close to the river, close to KP Hole Park, close to Rainbow River state park. We have the best (off river) location on VRBO.
