The property and home was perfect for our visit. Great location, plenty of room, comfortable with many surprise extras. Enjoyed the dawn and sunset river views. Located in a quiet neighborhood and so close to everything we wanted to do. We will definitely book this home again.
The house was very nice, clean and cozy. Even the yard was beautifully landscaped. This house is a great place to relax on the back porch in the morning and drink coffee and look at the beautiful scenery in the backyard overlooking the river. The house is located very close to Rainbow Springs which was beautiful. Me and my family had a very relaxing time staying at this property.
This home was an ideal location for our adult children that visited during the holidays. It had plenty of space, was very comfortable and the location cannot be beat. The views are beautiful and we would absolutely choose this location to accommodate our visitors in the future. Highly recommend.
Rudy’s home was exactly what we were looking for and yes I will book again! What got me to rent this place was the beautiful lake view and boy it did not disappoint. Beautiful nature sights from birds and flowers that surround the house. You could launch your kayak or paddle board or use a public ramp a couple blocks down in the same neighborhood. The house was just perfect too, love the Florida charm and very cozy, felt right at home. Very clean! It passed my white socks test (this is one of the most important things for me). Thank you for sharing your space with us, it was truly just what we needed and more.
We had a relaxing time at this beautiful property. The home is fully stocked with all we needed, and was very comfortable. The dock and river bank is so peaceful with both sunset and sunrise views over the river.
Very nice home right on the river. Well appointed, exactly as described. River is beautiful, rented a boat from the Blue Gator and kept it at the house dock, very convenient.
The fishing was not so great. There was a lot of Lily pads and the boats were in the way other than that. It was a very relaxing comfortable place period I would definitely stay here again. The owner is very nice.
Everything was wonderful. Spacious and comfortable. The view of the river was beautiful and the sunsets were gorgeous. This was our third time renting this property and we are already planning our next trip. Love it.
My husband and I stayed 12 days at Rudy's River House and had a wonderful time. The house is spacious furnished and supplied great. The scenery is beautiful and there is lots of water foul. The resident Sandhill Cranes were a daily visitor. All in all it is a great place with a great host.
Just got home from a long weekend at the River House. Had a great time and house did not disappoint. Great location! Plenty of room to spread out and enjoy watching the Withlacoochee River flow by. Worked out great with a dock for the boat and for the kids to fish on all day. Rudy made it nice and easy. Highly recommend this place.

About the host
Hosted by Rudy Coffin
when I retired I added the master suite/bathroom. Remodeled the house my sister and I grew up in. the family uses the river house often. by being on VRBO and renting out the property we can help off-set the remodeling cost, taxes and insurance premiums. Not trying to make a profit...just help to cover expenses.
