I highly recommend Gigi and John's property to those interested in bisiting this area! Very easy going couple with a very hometown feel home. The accommodations for children and pets will be forever remembered and appreciated. It was like staying at home, away from home. Thanks Gigi and John!!
House was very clean, spacious yard. Even caught a glimpse of a couple deer the first morning, which the kids loved! Only downside is the water didn't stay hot for very long while taking a shower, but besides that no complaints.
The house was conveniently located near the springs and close proximity to shopping needs. I enjoyed the ease of the check in process and the promptness of inquiries to the host if I had any. The property is exactly as listed online. I enjoyed my stay, I am sad I missed the manatees by a week but I hope to visit again next spring.
Virginia was a great host! Very responsive. The home is in a quiet area and is clean and comfortable with plenty of room to spread out both inside and out. Per my grandsons (11 & 14), the selection of games to keep them busy was “Amazingly Diverse” with things for both kids and adults. I loved the Calamondin tree outside. It’s tart, juicy fruits took me back to childhood at my grandparents home. I will definitely check for availability when I go back to visit family! Thank you, Virginia, for a wonderful stay!
The property was very nice and peaceful. The porch was awesome. The place was very peaceful. The house was clean and decorated very nice. The owner was very nice and friendly and very helpfull.
The house was just as described. It fit our family great! The host was amazing, we didn’t experience anything negative, but she was very good at communicating. We will book again if we come back to the area.
Nice property, well set up, comfortable. Would look into replacing or removing washer and drier. Dryer had note saying timer broken, owner doesn't use washer and drier, states linens are laundered off site.

We needed a place to wait out Milton. The property was amazing and the messaging with the host was awesome! We needed an extra day and it all went well! We were very happy!
Went with my daughter, son in law and two toddler granddaughters as well as my dog. It was super relaxing! Kids got to run around and be kids and dog got to run around and be a dog!! We loved that the springs were just around the corner!
This place has just about everything you need in the kitchen. It even had a crock pot so i made the kids a tater tot casserole for breakfast Saturday morning!! Very clean.
We arrived on June 26 2023 and and left on 29th.
We walk through the front door and found it was clean and awesome cool. Everything was so neatly arranged. There was also complementary coffee ,drinks and snacks. It is completely furnished with towels, linen anything that you need for a house it was there. We recommend this place 100%.

Needs cleaning and update
Overpriced doublewide with uneven floors, an accordian bathroom door that is broken, run down washer and dryer, screened in front porch with no screen on porch door which let in in multiple wasps inside.
We had an amazing time in Fanning Springs. We were able to take early morning walks with the kids and dog then finish the evening with late night s'mores. Virginia was quick to respond to questions and added special touches like snacks for our dog and dinner recommendations. The house is small but utilizes the space well with 4 bedrooms and one bathroom. We used the screened in front porch for morning breakfast and coffee and the fire pit at night. We had amazing time exploring state parks and enjoying many hours of outdoor time.

If you would have contacted us and let us know , the washer would have been replaced, I went to property and didn’t have any issues , the washer doesn’t have a agitator, the middle is supposed to be clear of laundry and put around sides , for the future to avoid issues I put in a washer with a agitator. Thanks again

Disappointed,
We ended up leaving and never stayed. The bright, white cleam phoyos were very, very, deceptive. Dirty sink, dishes and rugs. Had to go through bathroom to get to main area from back bedroom. Recommend spray hose, rake yard, amd clean furniyure in and out to be able to sit down

Unfortunately it’s Florida , the property is in a rural area, from January thruzgh April , every time the wind blows it rains leaves . Can’t control that . If you had noticed me , I would have sent the cleaning crew back over . I did not hear from you the entire stay .
We came with family to spend Easter with our grandmother before she flew back to Illinois this past weekend. There were 7 of us in total. The cottage was cozy, perfectly placed, and had everything we needed to have all of our weekend activities. It's right around the corner from many of the springs, so that was awesome, too! It is a lovely piece of property with plenty of privacy, yet, close enough to town to run to Wal-Mart or Dollar General should you need anything ! The cottage had plenty of room for us all to sleep comfortably and the owner was extremely accommodating and thoughtful, including a bottle of our favorite wine upon arrival and plenty of blankets for my grandmother. The yard was wonderful for our dog to enjoy, and the porches were perfectly set for activities and games together as a family. The fire pit was set up for us with plenty of lawn chairs and a swinging lounge chair to enjoy. The fire wood provided was such a kind amenity, as well as the charcoal for the grill! All in all, this place has everything needed to make beautiful family memories, relax, have fun, and unwind. The owner is extremely attentive and replies quickly to any questions or concerns, which was extremely helpful to our planning prior to arrival. We would be happy to stay again on our next adventure!
