Come enjoy a getaway cabin on 3 wooded acres in the quiet peaceful Rio Vista Community. Rio Vista provides a private park with swimming, picnic area, restrooms, and boat ramp. We do have four 10ft kayaks and double kayak, that comes with your rental. Also provided is a roof rack to take your kayaks to the park or a golf cart you can rent. You can put them in at the community park that is 2 min. away. For larger boats, a public boat ramp is 15 minutes away in Dunnellon. We are located within minutes of KP Hole, restaurants and shopping while a close 5 minutes to the fishing, kayaking and tubing of the Rainbow River. The cabin provides a relaxing atmosphere for a week-end getaway. The cabin décor is a great combination of rustic Old Florida and Bass Pro Shop. We have most of the “bells and whistles” you would expect in a two bedroom, 1.5 bath Florida A-Frame cabin. Flat screen smart TV, dish cable, net flix, and Hughes Net satallite internet, updated kitchen but no dishwasher. The downstairs master bedroom enjoys a king-size bed with a full bath. Upstairs guests enjoy a comfortable queen bed and 1/2 bathroom. There is a double Futon for added sleeping. A wrap around porch provides opportunity for outside enjoyment of the Florida sunshine. There is a fure pit with plenty of wood to enjoy an evening fire or make samores. There is an outside gas grill on the deck, propane included, for your enjoyment. This is rustic Old Florida. We have a gravel road with
lots of trees so we have provided a covered carport for your use. There is wildlife in the area so bring your camera and binoculars.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

LOVED OUR STAY! We all enjoyed the cabin, and floating and swimming in the Rainbow River. The cabin was comfortable with plenty of outdoor hangout space and things to do. We made fires in the fire pit each night.Our dog met a young deer, and they played together for at least 5 minutes. So cute!We found an EXCELLENT Mexican restaurant nearby (Riviera Maya) on our first night. We couldn't believe how good it was. We went back again.

NCAA Gator Getaway

We were looking to explore the area and Rainbow River and this place was excellent!! Plenty of room for everyone and the property is extremely cozy and relaxing. We spent 4 days floating the Rainbow River, enjoyed the fire pit, and dinning in some of the local restaurants. We are a big fan of the Crab Plant and it was within a 30 minute drive so it was perfect.

The Perfect VRBO!

Leslie is an amazing host. The cabin is located down a backroad, and it's very quiet. Daily we would see deer on the property. There is a new grocery store right down the road. KP Hole for those planning to scuba dive is less than 5 minutes away. There is a private park on Rainbow River minutes down the road that you will have access to. We loved everything about the home. Also, it's dog friendly, which was a must for us. Thank you Leslie!
