Escape to our peaceful Merritt's Mill Pond Hideaway! Nestled on 2.5 private acres with 300ft of gorgeous waterfront, this rural retreat offers a balance of nature and comfort. Swim, kayak, or snorkel from your dock. Watch wildlife from deer to eagles, then marvel at starry skies so clear you'll spot the Milky Way. Just minutes from Florida Caverns State Park and a short drive to Jackson Blue Springs. A true North Florida gem where family meals and nature's soundtrack create memories that last.

The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Gather used towels
Remove personal items, remove leftover food and drinks and take out the rubbish
Turn off the lights and lock the doors
Place used towels in the shower or tub
If you moved any furniture, we’d really appreciate it if you could return it to its original spot.
If anything was accidentally damaged during your stay, no worries at all — just let us know so we can take care of it
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.
QUIET HOURS:
9 p.m. - 7 a.m. outdoors (so neighbors can enjoy their peace too)
Respect the Septic System:
- Only flush the three P's: pee, poop, and (toilet) paper
- No wipes, tampons, or other items—they'll cause sewer backups!
TRASH:
Please DO NOT leave trash outside overnight. Raccoons will tear open the trash bags and make a huge mess.
