My wife, 2 boys (11 and 7) and I had a great time at this property. We spent a ton of time on the back dock fishing and watching nature go by. We took the kayaks out on a couple of mini adventures and explored the area. KP hole was only a short drive away and we spent a day floating down the Rainbow River. The house itself was very clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend this property to anyone looking to relax with their friends and/or family.
This was our second stay and it did not disappoint. Idyllic setting to relax and enjoy the wildlife and scenery. Extremely clean and tastefully decorated.
We had such a wonderful stay at this house, it truly felt like the perfect family getaway. One of our favorite parts was kayaking right from the property. Being out on the water, surrounded by nature, was incredibly peaceful and refreshing.We were lucky enough to see wild turkeys, a variety of birds, and even squirrels during our stay, which made the experience feel even more special and connected to nature. The area is very quiet, making it easy to completely disconnect and relax.The house itself was comfortable and had everything we needed. It felt safe and welcoming, and we especially appreciated that our dog could enjoy the space safely too.Overall, it had everything we could have asked for in a relaxing family escape. We would absolutely love to come back!
This is our second visit to Dunnellon and it was even better than last year, especially because we knew how beautiful it was and that everything we would need for a memorable feast day would be provided.
Absolute perfection. This river retreat is a wonderful house nestled on the Withlacoochee River. Everything for your stay is thoughtfully taken care of and available. The house is spotlessly clean and cleverly decorated in a river theme. The fenced backyard is alive with birds and squirrels which you can watch in the screened deck which overlooks the back. Its just a magical space you get to share with nature. The dock deck and kayak lift are at rivers edge in the shadows of the majestic cypress canopy. It is a quiet spot which are few and far between these days in Florida. We want to come back already!

Thank you for your lovely detailed review you were awesome guests that we would enjoy hosting again anytime
As always the house was very clean and well stocked with all the things that you could think of for an enjoyable getaway. We were not able to enjoy everything the place had to offer in one week and look forward to our next visit in the near future.
This was the best vacation rental we have ever been in. The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. The master bed was very comfortable along with the living room furniture, and the screened in porch was the perfect spot to sit and enjoy the natural surroundings.
This was a great place for us to stay while visiting my brother in Dunnellon. The fenced backyard was perfect for our pet. This is by far the most well stocked vacation rental we have ever stayed at. Very comfortable overall.

Absolutely amazing place to come and relax, especially with dogs. Very nicely equipped in terms of kitchen and bathroom. Having access to kayaks and bikes is a special touch too! Excellent communication throughout the booking process and stay. The water level was low when we were there so it too two people to carefully get kayaks in and out of the water but all the waterways and places to explore were more than worth it. The folder of information was thorough and very helpful. Already booked a return visit!
We love coming here for a quick weekend getaway . This was our second time visiting. It’s in a relaxing and scenic location close to the Rainbow and as a plus we are able to bring our dog ! The home is well kept and comfortable and has all you need for entertainment including bikes and kayaks. We will be back again!
This is our second stay here. Enjoy the house, porch, and yard. Fenced in yard is great for our dog. Owners go out of their way to help you with any concerns. Thank you for letting us stay.
My family loves this rental! We have visited twice of the holiday weekend and enjoyed it very much both times. The property is clean and equipped with the essentials. Our family enjoyed the scenic backyard and fishes right from the dock. Highly recommend!

About the host
Hosted by Karen McCulley
My husband and I moved from south Florida to the Dunnellon area 8 years ago to escape the hassle of the big city.
Why they chose this property
The beauty of the Withlacoochee along with it's abundant wildlife makes this the perfect setting. The home is very private and the yard is perfect for relaxing. Completely fenced it is safe for your pets.
What makes this property unique
The location of this home is perfect for enjoying all the Nature Coast has to offer from hiking biking, golfing and sightseeing. It is centrally located to the areas vacationers come to enjoy. Swimming with manatees is an experience of a lifetime and Three Sisters in Crystal River along with Homosassa Springs are the only 2 places in the world where this is permitted. For fishermen, The Largemouth Bass are abundant and big in the Withlacoochee and Lake Rousseau.
