About this property

Farm/Woods stay, 3 miles from Live Oak

Set about 300 yards off the street, our home is conveniently located just 3 miles from Live Oak. It is surrounded by 200+ acres of commercial timberland and old-growth, upland hardwood forest.

On the same property we have two additional VRBO homes. Booked together we can host a total of 25 Guests! One is next door (300' away), the other is a 1 mile drive. For more info, search for "Catherine's Place" and "Inn the Woods" or message us for links to them.

Our home was built in 1943 from timber off the land by Host's grandparents and is of old Florida Cracker architecture. The home has been updated with central Heat & AC, WiFi (17+ Mbps), and 4 Smart HDTVs that stream online content.

Guests will have access to the entire home other than 2 closets secured with deadbolt locks and marked "Owners Closet."

Our neighborhood is quiet and is not on a commercial street or main highway. The street begins 2 miles away in a residential subdivision in town and ends about a mile past our home.

There is a state managed public lake less than a mile away that has fishing piers, a boat ramp, and plenty of parking space. Suwannee Lake was temporarily closed for a couple of years for renovations but has now reopened. Don't expect to water ski here, at 63 acres its more a fishing pond with quite a few cypress tress.

Our rural community has no public transportation. There is taxi service and an uncontrolled general aviation airport (24J) with one paved 4000' runway about 6 miles away.

A Greyhound bus terminal is about 22 miles away in Lake City. Closest commercial airports are, Valdosta, Ga, 50 mi.; Gainesville, Fl., 68 mi.; Jacksonville, Fl., 90 mi.; Tallahassee, Fl., 95 mi.; Orlando, 185 mi.; and Tampa 200 mi.

Amtrak service to the US mid-Atlantic and Northeastern states as well as Central and South Florida is available from Jacksonville, 90 miles away.

Many people enjoy riding bicycles on our rural highways and there are dozens of miles of paved rails to trails paths within a half-hour.

Distance to area attractions:
Camp Weed & Cerveny Conference Center (Episcopal), 6 Miles
Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park, 10 Miles
Suwannee River State Park, 16 Miles
Advent Christian Village at Dowling Park, 20 Miles
Ichetucknee Springs, 28 Miles
Other Springs, 10 - 40 Miles
Wild Adventures Park in Lake Park, Ga., 47 Miles
Steinhatchee/Gulf Coast, 57 Miles

My wife Vicki and I travel a lot and often have very little or no contact with our guests. However, we have a handyman and a housekeeper available for most issues that may arise.

The house holds a lot of people. The property was pretty. The house needs a lot of work. The interior was very cluttered and not very clean. I moved a lamp to put my charger on a side table and there was a dust ring. Having a washer/dryer was convenient. Overall I don’t think I would stay here again.

Reconnect with friends

FYI you are in rural Florida here. It is very peaceful and relaxing, and the people in town are very friendly. We visited during a heat wave, so we did not explore any of the trails or outside activities. We loved the large front porch with ceiling fan. It has a peaceful country view and lots of birds. We spent most mornings out there just catching up and enjoying the view. Roc was super responsive.

Great Stay, Everything was just perfect

This property met our needs perfectly. We spent 3 days cycling the area and just had a blast. After a long 60+ bicycle ride it was like heaven to return here. We were so impressed we are already planning our next years ride. Thank you for letting us use your home.

Quaint little piece of paradise

Everything was easy. Property is very historic and nice. The owner is very easy to communicate with. There was a storm right before we came. They did everything they could to get everything restored for us to be there. They went above and beyond to make sure we had contact info for everyone. Minutes from great restaraunts. Thanks for allowing us to enjoy your property.

Bug problem ruined stay

I wanted to love this property based on the reviews and how great the communication was from the owner. However, there was a serious bug problem that made it impossible for us to continue our stay. The house was also not very clean, which was surprising based on the reviews. I realized afterwards that there had not been any reviews in the past year and that probably contributed to the bug problem and lack of cleanliness. The owner refunded our money for the last night as well as the cleaning fee which I appreciated. It would have been nice if he had refunded the entire stay because we weren’t able to enjoy our time there but he was responsive which I really appreciated.

We had a great experience at Roc's property! Our son was getting married at Suwannee Music Park and we needed a base of operations. The property was beautiful and the location was excellent for everything that we needed to do. We are looking forward to coming back soon!

Beautiful, charming house near numerous springs!

This beautiful, charming house is close to sooo many State Parks and springs including Suwannee River State Park and Big Shoals State Park. If you want to venture a bit farther, Okefenokee Swamp is also not too far and a great day trip from here. Kayaking on the Wacissa River was also a great time and not too far. We will definitely be coming back!
