Perfect Stay
Two of our company employees needed a place to stay during an off-road event this past weekend, and the cabin was absolutely perfect! They were able to spread out, cook, and relax between long days at the event. We would definitely stay again when back in the area, and highly recommend. The communication with Leana was perfect, and she was willing to work with us since it was a last minute booking, so we are extra grateful for that as well.

Beautiful place!
We loved staying in the cabin, super nice and had a pretty straightforward check in and check out. Loved sitting out on the dock and watching the wildlife. Only complaint I have is the listing says there is a hot tub. We did not find one, but that's the only thing about this place I had noticed. Will be coming back to rent this place again in the near future!

Peaceful Old Florida Fish Camp
Land and entry felt like leaving the city for an escape. Old live oaks full of Spanish moss, with deer, ducks , sandhill cranes, slowly greeting the morning out on the screened porch. Beds comfortable with older quilts and could use some newer linens. Kitchen has all a fish camp would need and hot shower when handle turned to 3:00 before bed. Restful, would have enjoyed reading about the history behind this get away. Leana was very responsive as a host. Thanks for sharing your homestead.
