Such a wonderful, beautifully decorated, comfortable and relaxing house. Can’t say enough good things about this house and the host, we’ll definitely be back!
Cindy was an amazing host - very responsive and helpful. Her place is very tidy and well maintained. A lovely place to relax and enjoy yourself….with all kinds of stuff to do.
This was the cutest house! Everything was perfect. The outside area was great with an awesome view. We came to the area for a hike and didn’t have much time to hang out so we will definitely be back with no plan other than to enjoy sticking around the house! The owner was very friendly and responded quickly.

We had a wonderful stay! The property is beautiful and the house is so cute. Everything we needed was included and the host was always just a text away!
This will now be our go to property when we visit Lake George area. Property was pristine and the owners were very easy to communicate with and very friendly. We will definitely be back!!!

We enjoyed your visit and look forward to seeing you back!
We enjoyed our getaway at The Reeling Inn very much. This is a great rental and we were very pleased and satisfied with all the accommodations provided. An added benefit was having our host staying nearby and available to answer questions about the area, etc. We will look forward to returning and staying here again.

I enjoyed our conversations and look forward to you returning!
Cindy and Rick were very accommodating as we were able to book a extra day at last minute. It really is a home away from home. Very clean, and love the Classy Beach vibe decor. I love photography and got some amazing photos during our stay. The peacock's was one of the biggest highlights as they roam free. We caught sting rays, catfish, bluegill, and a WHOLOTTA peace. Bonus: We loved sitting by the fire pit and listening to the live band playing at Renegades!! Thank you both again. This is one for the books.Judith, Mike and Momma C

Great place on the St. John’s River. Great place for a boat. Great place for relaxing and grilling dinner on the deck with a beverage and watching a perfect sunset. Great place to o prepare for and stay. Simply put, Great Place!

Thank you for the review, Greg. We hope you return again soon!!
This property is beautiful! The hosts Cindy & Rick are amazing! It’s walking distance to Renegades and waking up with the view of the river was amazing!! We literally are already talking about when we can go again!! 10 out of 10!!
House was perfect for our family. Great location, great view. The dock was awesome. Kids enjoyed the water and wildlife, and central to plenty of restaurants. Homeowner was very accessible and helpful. Thanks for having us!

Thank you, Emily! I hope you and your family return again!!
clean, calm, and hidden away from the world. Highly recommend this slice of heaven on the St Johns River. Next door to renegades campground for some great times and far away enough for the privacy. Brand new dock to enjoy the boat with family and friends. Will be back soon!

Thank you for the great review, Gabriel! We look forward to your return soon!!
We enjoyed our long weekend. Did some boating and some fishing. The house was beautiful and comfortable.
A time to relax on the deck and watch the sunset. We will be back ! Butch & Trina
5 Star property with 10 Star owners. Reasons for 4 stars on the location: long sandy driveway entrance ( not conducive to motorcycle) and some abandoned neighborhood properties. Quiet, peaceful and the best fishing in the world right off the brand new dock. Local restaurants cook up the best fresh seafood. Don’t miss out on this Old Florida Gem!
It’s hard finding the words to describe how much I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. It felt like a true home away from home. Cindy is a wonderful host! She goes above and beyond to provide you with a carefree stay. It is very obvious that they truly care for the home and their guests. The home is beautiful with a gorgeous deck that overlooks the water and dock. Plus, the sunsets were gorgeous every night. I absolutely cannot wait to come back.

Thank you for the wonderful review, Catherine. We do hope you return soon!!
Reeling Inn is adorable, impressive and everything we needed for the perfect weekend boating getaway ! Cindy and her husband were excellent hosts ! The cottage is updated, extremely clean, fully stocked kitchen and 2 bedrooms with en-suite baths. What a pleasure to have a fully enclosed Florida room with climate control and day bed for relaxing in the evening. Large deck outside with Adirondack chairs and fire pit was the perfect gathering place after retuning from boating all day. Location is ideal for night time fun at Renegades on the River -a walk or ride just minutes away. Sit out on the deck or the beautiful dock and enjoy the live music from afar! We even had a friendly squirrel that we hand fed- seems he or she has adjusted to visitors and is very tame! Booking several more trips at this sweet cottage ! Relax, refresh and reset at this river cottage- for a no stress weekend!
