Great place to stay
We stayed for 3 nights over Memorial Day weekend. The host was easy to communicate with and we had a great stay. Heads up that the water is sulfur, so being bottled water if you arent used to it. We will definitely be back!

Satsuma cabin
Property manager was prompt in answering my questions and was helpful in responding to any needs we had.The cabin was charming and clean, we really enjoyed our stay. Perfect for a couple but would easily accommodate a family or two couples.An earring that I lost was found while the cabin was cleaned and the manager offered to send it to me! Made me very happy to have her do that!

Homey and exactly as pictured!
Our stay here was absolutely perfect!The host did an amazing job with the space and so much thought was put into every detail. It was perfect for the holiday to visit family but also be able to work when needed. Outside was beautiful too and the perfect space for dog walking and our adventurous 5 year old! We can’t wait to come back!

Peaceful Retreat
We booked this place due to the proximity to a birthday party we were attending in Welaka. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The setting is very serene. We only stayed a couple of nights, but it would be great for a week long getaway. The boat ramp was in good condition and there was plenty of parking for two vehicles and our large tritoon boat. We definitely recommend this place for your next trip to the river!

Cute Cabin
I would stay there again. I didn't catch there was no stove/oven when I booked it but they do provide a portable burner. (We just went out to eat instead.) Hosts were wonderful. Property was clean and perfect location to visit our children and grandbaby. Grateful that it was pet friendly, our 2 daschunds enjoyed it as well! Thank you!

Palatka Tournament
We stayed at the cabin for the weekend to attend a BASS tournament in Palatka for our sons. It was wonderful! The hosts were amazing!!! We would return solely for the hosts. The cabin was lovely. It was clean and we had wonderful dinners on the hot plate and crockpot! Definitely will be back for our next stay in Palatka.

Stayed for the boat access
Easy check in….Friendly staff….Boat ramp access…Andersen’s Bar and grill was a short boat ride away, friendly bar tender. If your looking for a restaurant by way of boat, Corky Bells is a further trip but has a big dock and plenty of out side seating.
There is a dock, to load and unload fishing gear, however not setup for overnight docking. The property has plenty of space to maneuver a boat and trailer since each night we trailered the boat.
