About this property

Family reunion retreat on beautiful 5800 acre Lake Sante Fe, Sleeps 22

Love to bass fish, water ski, swim or just enjoy fabulous sunsets? Then this recently built compound is for you. The main house has 2 master suites with a fun giant sleeping room that sleeps 12 people. The new attached guest house has 2 additional bedrooms and a separate bathroom. The 1200 sq. ft screened in wraparound porch is perfect for ping pong and other games. Great for large family reunions or Fl. Gator games. (Gainesville is 30 mins away)

About the host

Host profile image
We have owned this property for almost 30 years and have enjoyed ever day we have been there. We are from Alabama and North Carolina.

Why they chose this property

This house was newly constructed about 6 years ago and was built for fun and large groups who enjoy being together

What makes this property unique

We have tile floors throughout both houses which makes cleaning up easier and the very large screened in porch offers plenty of room for games and fun.
