Beautiful Newly Remodeled Home on River with Dock!
This beautiful, newly remodeled and decorated home is nestled under Spanish moss draped cypress trees with big, gorgeous views of the St. Johns and the Ocala National Forest. It is the perfect getaway to Old Florida with none of the crowds, overdevelopment and traffic. Whether you are a casual or serious fisherman, a hiker, a hunter, a reader or a boater this home and location will appeal to you. This very comfortable home, yard and dock gives a feeling of freedom and serenity that is hard to match and a peacefulness that helps you go back to a simpler, less complicated world. There are great views of the river whether you are in the nicely appointed kitchen, at the dining room table, sitting in one of our new leather reclining sofas or chair, sitting in the large screen room, out in the well-maintained St. Augustine yard or sipping your favorite beverage with a line or two in the water. Located 90 minutes from the Orlando area, 60 minutes from Jacksonville, St. Augustine or Daytona, this area, known as the “Bass Fishing Capital of the World, has a lot going on including not only bass but many salt water species as well, hiking in the nearby Welaka State Forest or Dunn's Creek State Park, bird and alligator watch on the nearby famous Oklawaha River, boating to Silver Glenn Springs or Salt Springs, ferry over to Ocala National Forest, numerous restaurants and bars nearby such as Renegades Tiki Bar and Restaurant, Idle Awhile, Welaka lodge, Anderson’s lodge, Shrimps R Us, marinas, bait, boat rentals and even the 18 hole Live Oak Golf Course.

Property is exactly as described and more. Home is comfortable with basic items to start you off and spices etc to share. Cleaning supplies are accessible which are often behind locked doors and the windows open!!!!! This home is very welcoming. Lanai is lovely, yard is nice with fire pit. Dock is great with wonderful views of sunset. Dollar General 5 min away and grocery store 15 minutes away. Outdoor/indoor dining options nearby, very friendly neighborhood. Property has all you need for a great getaway.
2nd time here, again wonderful stay! Brought our own boat this time so it made it even better! Love the proximity to Renegades for lunch or dinner, and convenient boat ramp! Thanks for a great relaxing week!
We came for a boat run/sand bar spring hangout event with a bunch of other fast boats. It was nice being located so close to boat ramps and good places to eat. Everything was just as shown and Justin was great with responding to help us out.
Perfect weekend getaway! Loved the quiet, peaceful setting on the river. Lots of birds, fish, and alligators. Home was very well maintained and provided everything we needed. Thank you for sharing!

Amazing property and views
The home exceeded my family's expectations, it was so clean and beautiful. We had an amazing stay.
Just as advertised. Relaxing and quiet setting. Enjoyed the wildlife and saw an eagle in the front yard. Made a nice stopover on our trip further South.
It was perfect and close enough to Pomona park for the ever after farms wedding venue. The view was amazing and peaceful. My husband and son and brother enjoyed fishing.
Was all we wanted. Great location for us, to fish and hang out. Home was awesome, clean nice lay out, had all we needed, (that we didnt bring), was quiet and relaxing. Will definitely be going back there.

The house is well furnished and high quality
A nice experience but a long way from civilization. The house lived up to the advertisement. Next time we will get closer to the coast.

I am glad the house lived up to your expectation and sorry you did not realize you would be so far from the coast. I do provide the location in the listing so assumed you would know where it was located. And yes, we are in rural Florida, Old Florida, and not much around us which I do tell people. The house is suited for those that want a water front experience and enjoy the laid back surroundings.

Great home in a quiet location
My family stayed here over the Thanksgiving holiday to get away and have some downtime and we were really pleased with the home. There's plenty of space inside and it's well appointed. There was enough room for the kids to play in one room while the adults socialized in another. The dock offered some amazing sunset views. Looking forward to staying here again in the future!
