Spring Break
We rented for our Spring break and had an amazing time. The house was clean, well stocked with everything you would need. We rented a pontoon and there was plenty of room on the dock for the boat. We saw manatees, gators and caught fish from the dock. Communication from the Host was excellent. We would highly recommend staying here.

Absolutely The Best
We very much enjoyed the property. The game room loft and the big yard made things very easy. Multiple kitchen set ups for our own space. We loved staying here and look forward to renting again!!

Great stay
We enjoyed the house very much; very comfortable with different spaces and things to do for all ages. The online details aren’t accurate be side there’s one of the bedrooms that we never saw, 16 people wouldn’t have fit; we were 10 and it was just the right size.

About the host

Hosted by David Renaud

Host profile image
Hi! We are David and Kristie. Married in 2017, and living in St. Augustine, Florida, we were looking for a nice get-a-way for our blended family to easily visit a few times a year. We fell in love with Astor and wanted to share it's charm with others when we weren't staying. Astor has a lot to offer...wildlife, adventure, fishing, hiking, boating, relaxation, and much more. We aim to make sure your visit is amazing and special. There is so much to do onsite but one of our favorite things is to just relax at night and play games. We've made so many memories here and our goal is to make sure you return. We are always making improvements and love feedback on how to make your stay better.

Why they chose this property

Perfect for large groups who want to stay together but in separate living areas...Family reunions, Church groups, Men's fishing retreats. Family boating to swim in the springs, or just a relaxing weekend with bon fires and corn hole on the property... You will not be bored...

What makes this property unique

Fishing right off dock. String lights, fire pit and outdoor speakers for night time gatherings. Kayaks available on property for canal use. Outdoor kitchen with bar and a great place to clean your catch of the day for the feast that night. Places to eat out, but also charcoal grill onsite for a stay at home dinner.
