The hostess was very informative and communicative. The Ms Pac-Man machine and the foosball table were huge hits. My family did tons of hours of kayaking. The living room was spacious and comfortable for evening gatherings. It was a wonderful family retreat.

Great place to stay. Kids loved the themed rooms, projector screen for movie watching and all the games. Beds were comfy. House was very dog friendly with fenced back yard. Host was very welcoming and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. We would stay again when coming back to the Springs.
This house is cooler than any we've ever stayed at! The decor is nautical-themed and absolutely adorable! The best part of this house is the hostess--she is kind, thoughtful and attentive! The kitchen has been recently renovated and is beautiful. The backyard is fun and while we didn't use the screen porch with video games, my teenager wants to go back to play them!
I can’t say enough about this house and the owners! It’s a beautiful home away from home, Amanda went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. She was thoughtful and left extra little things out for us to use or have. The house is unique and cozy. The view out back is amazing, the amount of wildlife that we got to watch every day was just awesome! We will definitely be staying here again. ❤️
The house was great, just as described, we were looking for something quite and not city, was exactly what we needed. Scenery was perfect, friendly neighborhood and close to all the conveniences, eateries, grocery stores, activities. The host was great and checked on us multiple times to make sure all was well, offered a little extra when our family came for a visit. The owners of the vrbo next door are great as well, friendly and accommodating. The wildlife was awesome, dolphins, manatees and birds where right in our back yard. We loved the place.😁😁
Our family rented this home from Mandy who was awesome. They went out of their way to make sure we had a great stay. Our 7yr old loved the pirate ship loft and feeding the turtle who lives on the river (his name is now James the turtle lol!). We fished, kayaked, cooked, played chess and pong. Very comfortable house for us all. The homeowners left sweet gifts for us which we truly appreciated and felt very welcome. Well stocked kitchen and baths. Comfy beds. Cozy sectional in the living room. We hope to stay there again! Thank you for the hospitality!
We just returned home from staying at this home on the Withlacoochie for an entire week! We have nothing but great things to say about our stay here, and have already discussed returning for vacation next year!
The home is fun, cozy, and quirky all at the same time! It is tucked into a very quiet little town, very close to the gulf. if you are into peace and quiet and away from the hustle and bustle, this is the place. We were looking for somewhere close to the scallop grounds, but also nice and quiet, and this home did not disappoint. The home is large, offered lots of sleeping space, and was completely furnished with everything you can possibly need, including some fun arcade machines! It is on a canal right off the Withlacoochie and handled our 20ft center console bay boat without an issue. There is a boat ramp / bait shop right around the corner as well.
The host Mandy, was extremely welcoming, and hospitable. Her and her husband were accommodating and helpful! They really worked to ensure we had a great stay, something I am super appreciative of.
