About this property

Private lake community with boat ramp, beach and proximity to Springs & hiking

Nestled in the heart of Ocala National Forest is this adorable Salt Springs resort! Come relax at our private beach, complete with picnic tables, swings and a campfire/outdoor grill or soak in the jacuzzi. If you’re feeling more adventurous, enjoy a day of boating (accessible by private boat ramp), swimming at one of the two pools (one family and one adult only), playing Pickleball/shuffleboard or enjoying the Clubhouse amenities. Salt Springs State Park is just across the way! There are several trail heads nearby. Our place is a short walk to the lake, front gate and public showers/restrooms. There are food trucks on Friday nights. A true gem !! PLEASE NOTE: The resort HOA charges a $35 fee that is paid through DocuSign after providing your email address. This is a flat fee regardless of days
and covers one vehicle. It applies to the entire park and does not go to us as renters.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was a wonderful place to stay, clean and very easily accessed. We did have to purchase a propane tank but it wasn’t a big deal.

Family Visit /Vacation

My husband and I came to the location to spend some time with family while also taking the chance to spend some much needed quality time together. We really enjoyed ourselves. Neighbors are welcoming, the park is nice with lots of amenities, and the rental is very clean and stocked with everything one would need in a home away from home!

Super cute and accommodating.

The Home was spotless and had everything that we needed. Plenty of room to park our Boat and the Owners were GREAT to work with. They were very prompt and accommodating. The Resort if Gated and we felt very safe. The Salt Springs RV Resort is very pretty with plenty of Amenities. Having a Boat Ramp with direct access to Lake Kerr was wonderful. We would stay again and recommend.

What a nice place to vacation!

Hillary is a fantastic host and her place is well kept, clean, and made for a very enjoyable stay - very much like a home away from home. My best friend of 48 years and I were very happy with the accommodations. Hillary communicates very well and is always quick to respond to inquiries. We felt safe and secure in this small gated community, and the people in the resort were very friendly and courteous! We had a very enjoyable stay! This will be my Go-To place to stay in the Salt Springs / Ocala area! Thank you, Hillary!

Comfortable / clean

My only complaint is the refrigerator/ fan was super loud, & the microwave also sounded like the fan was under deress. With the refrigerator we had to turn off the breaker switch to sleep.
