Fish on the lake, and there is room on the property to bring your boat.
This beautifully updated home is decorated for fishing enthusiast, , but it is a very comfortable retreat that is fun and whimsical. Inside we have newer, cozy furniture as well as 2 TV sets and plenty of games and puzzles.

We are close to 2 public launch areas, and a variety of Hiking Trails maintained by the US Forest Service. The house itself is one home away from the waters edge.
Two brand new decks, one in the front of the house to watch the Sunsets and relax after a day on the water, and a larger deck off the back of the house that is equipped with a grill as well as table and chairs.
The back deck looks out over a fully fenced backyard. There are Cardinals, Hawks, Eagles and a variety of birds that can be enjoyed from the deck.

They are decorated in vintage fishing items and original artwork.
Our bathroom was completely gutted and has new everything, including a fantastic Under the Lake Mosaic with your own Mermaid...

A Lake Talquin Gem

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived! The Tackle Box has a unique lake house decor with so much attention to detail! We enjoyed having coffee out front every morning, staring at the lake, and watching cardinals fly around while taking in the peacefulness and tranquility of this place! It’s an easy, straight drive (25-30 minutes) to Tally and minutes away from Lake Talquin State Park. We came up for our daughter’s graduation from FSU. Had this place been available in the past 4 years, we would have always booked here! We plan on returning and highly recommend The Tackle Box. Thank you, Marcia, for being so attentive and accommodating! ❤️

Everything was good! Communication seemed to be our biggest issue. But in the end it all worked out.

We live on Lake Talquin and love it. The sunsets are wonderful and the fishing is good.
The Cabin(The Tackle Box) is just one house away from us, so we are hands-on hosts.
