About this property

The Harley Hideaway on the Water

You Decide! This newly renovated and uniquely industrialized queen bed/full bath hideaway is situated on a deep-water canal right off the St. John’s River. We are surrounded by Florida's Ocala National Forest and our many beautiful springs. It's a fun retreat with plenty of activities available! Perfect for a single person or a couple. Fishing is awesome! You can fish off the dock in the backyard, on Lake George, Lake Dexter, the St. Johns River or in our many creeks and springs. A photographer’s delight! You will find miles of hiking, and off -road vehicle and horse trails throughout the forest. Bring your boat, kayaks, canoes and golf cart. We have room for your vehicles and trailers on the property. A public boat ramp is only 5 minutes away by road, 10-15 minutes by river. Hunt for deer and wild turkey in season. And in the off season, check out the pistol, rifle and skeet/trap shooting range in the forest. By the way, we are a golf cart community. Bikers, fishers and boaters are welcome!
This tiny home is also within an hour to many of Central Florida’s attractions including Disney, Universal and the beaches on both coasts. And, within a few miles, you can dine at the newly renovated Drifters Bar & Grill (formerly Blackwater Inn), order pizza delivered from Pizza-Over-Yonder and have breakfast or lunch at the Rose Garden or Sparky’s. If you want to eat in, groceries are available from the Triple Z market, Raven's Veggies or the Dollar General Market just a mile away.
Spend a long weekend, week, or the season with us. Weekly and Monthly discounts. Whatever your indulgence, your comfort and privacy is our main concern.

Our stay at Harley Hideaway was just what we needed. We enjoyed the local restaurants and how quiet it was. The kitchen was equipped with everything you would need. The homemade cookies, snacks and bottle of wine was extra special after a long drive. Thank you Bob and Jody for a wonderful time, We will recommend to our family and friends. Susie and Randy
