Are you looking for a nice private spot with lots of nature and a million dollar view in a park like setting? Well this is the place for you. It is situated at the end of a canal off the Withlacoochee River. There is a double decker dock where you can sit and enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an evening drink to wind down after a day of sightseeing and building memories. There is always a nice breeze coming off the river even on a hot day. The house was a 1960's fish camp that was totally renovated from top to bottom. We named it the Crane House because you will likely get a visit from two Sandhill Cranes every day. The house has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a double futon in the den for extra sleeping space. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you will need to cook a family meal. The kitchen has all the modern conveniences with dish washer, disposal, and icemaker. Outside is a weber gill to enjoy a family cookout with plenty of outdoor seating if you choose to eat outside. There is plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy a meal outside. There are 2 kayaks available for use while staying. We recently totally fenced the property for your fury friends. Whitin the fence are 4 properties. I live in 1, a 1 bedroom 1 bath bungalow, a RV, and the 2 bedroom 2 bath crane house. The Rv and crane house share the same driveway and the bungalow any owner resident house share the other. Both gates have remotes that open and close. The properties are very safe and secured with the property being totally fenced on a dead end street. The neighborhood is very quiet and made up with mostly retired. It's a nice location for peace and quiet and to enjoy all the wildlife the river offers.

This home was a wonderful place for our family of 4 adults to stay, very well equipped and the Host is very thoughtful of her guest needs while staying at the house. Would love to go again & do a little fishing!!
This was a perfect place for my families vacation. From the nightly storms to catching the biggest bass of my life, this place has it all!!!!! I would highly recommend this place if you enjoy quiet country life. You can get out on the river or fish the canal, eitherway was a perfect place.
Very comfortable, quiet gem near Rainbow Springs.
We stayed over Thanksgiving and were very pleasantly surprised about the well equipped kitchen that had every appliance and pots/pans we could have needed (We cooked a full Thanksgiving meal).
The property is right on a small canal. The provided kayaks were put to good use as well as the 2 story dock that lent itself to birdwatching while enjoying a coffee.
Overall it has been a very relaxing stay and we hope to come back one day.
