About this property

Best lake view cottage #21 at Salt Springs Resort

Come relax and enjoy this adorable cottage with the best location in the Salt Springs Resort. You will appreciate the gorgeous views and lovely breeze from Little Lake Kerr. Cottage #21 is one of the few cottages available for rent from which you can watch the sunset over the lake every night directly from your front patio.

This 720 sq foot 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage
has everything you need for a comfortable stay including: kitchenware for cooking, gas stove/oven, toaster, coffee maker, microwave, blender, pool towels, board games, tennis raquets & pickelball paddles, poker set, outdoor gas grill and picnic table, cable TV & wifi. Comfortably sleeps 4, but can accommodate 6. Inquire in advance as we can provide a nice queen sized inflatable mattress.
We do charge a one time cleaning fee of $75.

Resort amenities start just 100 steps away from home to the two pools and waterfront including hot tub, game room, volleyball, pickleball, corn hole, horseshoes, shuffleboard, fire pit and more! Bring your boat; there's plenty of parking and a boat ramp on site.

Within walking distance are a Dollar General, post office, the Square Meal for breakfast or lunch, Salt Springs Pizza, hair salon and laundromat. Other nearby restaurants like Maxine's Kitchen, The Grill Out, Odd Todds & Cactus Jacks are a few minutes drive away.

Explore the local area: Salt Springs Recreational Area is across the street and nearby is the Salt Springs Marina where you can launch your boat into the run that brings you to the St. John's River. Juniper, Silver Glen, Silver Springs and Alexander Springs are all within a short drive. Bring your snorkel masks from home and spend a few hours at each spring. No two are alike. Like hiking? Bass fishing? Dirt biking, 4x4'ing (trails begin across the street!) Spectacular sunsets? It's all here!

There's ample parking at the cottage for 2 vehicles including a boat/trailer.

The host waa great, communicated with me the whole time, was helpful throughout the whole process. I gave 4 stars because no one let me know before getting to the resort that, there was a 15 additional car decal, and that due to poor cellphone reception they could only take cash. Otherwise all else was top of the line.

About the host

Hosted by Krista McDonald

Host profile image
Krista & Kevin purchased this cottage in 2021 for a winter getaway and we are happy to share it with you. We love the peace and quiet of the Ocala National Forest and the close proximity to hiking and springs.

Why they chose this property

Front row view of Little Lake Kerr and gorgeous sunsets. Steps to the lake and lodge, resort pools and amenities. There are very few cottages for rent within the resort that offer such a wonderful view and location.
