Overall this is a great vacation home. It has all the amenities we needed and a great library which we used several times. We spent many hours on the screened porch which was great with the overhead fan. We knew the lake in front had dried up so that was the only major downside to accessing the lake. We did use the boat that the owner moved to the main lake and I was able to catch a nice bass. The location is perfect and we enjoyed many nearby attractions like the air boat tour and several golf courses. We hope to return next year.

Restful Retreat

Cypress Cottage was a great way to find some peace and tranquility between a busy schedule of church services and meetings. It's a wonderful location that you can tell has been well loved by its owners. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, this is a great place for just that.

The setting is peaceful and private and if you’re a walker or biker the Withlacoochee Trail is half mile away. Chris is great, responded very quickly to any questions we had and when the wind tore the patio umbrella Chris had it replaced within 24 hours. Overall our stay was wonderful! Highly recommend!

Peaceful Nature Escape

I spent two nights at Cypress Cottage, and it was exactly what I needed — calm, peaceful, and close to nature. Despite the 4th of July fireworks in the distance, the cottage offered a perfect retreat with only the soothing outdoor sounds. Special thanks to our host, Chris, for his warm hospitality, thoughtful touches, and for following up to check in and make sure everything was going well. His care and attention truly made the stay even more enjoyable. It was a lovely getaway, and my dog enjoyed it just as much as I did.
