About this property

River Retreats/Anglers Paradise

Country setting, that is away from all the city noises. FREE use of the Kayaks and golf cart are provided for transport to the neighborhood boat ramp here on the Withlacoochie River. From this location experienced paddlers can travel up river approx 45 minutes to get to the Rainbow River (the two rivers connect). If you have a hitch on your vehicle you may use the trailer to transport my kayaks to other nearby destinations. KP Hole county park and Rainbow Springs State Park are 10 min away. We provide “FREE” passes to the KP Hole also, county park that’s on the Rainbow River. Bring your boat! There is plenty of parking and you can put in at our boat ramp. Relax by the fire in the evening. Peaceful, quiet and only 10 minutes from town for shopping and dining.

Sleeps 4 comfortably, but room for 6.

Cozy little place

This is a cute and cozy mobile home that is in a quiet neighborhood close to shopping and restaurants. The only thing that was a bit uncomfortable was the ceiling height. Watch out for the ceiling fans 😀. Communication with Chaz was always prompt and polite. We'd stay again if in the area.

Good place

When we pulled up we’re we instantly excited. Nice little features around this house made it fun to stay at. With games to play, a beautiful backyard with fire pit and the amazing river close by we had no shortage of entertainment. The only con was a few dead bugs on the floor inside but hey this is Florida… can’t wait to stay here on our next trip. -TJ and the boys

Comfortable, relaxing, & very clean!

We were very happy with our stay! Property was exactly as described; so peaceful and beautiful out back! We stayed 3 nights and found everything we wanted to do was extremely close by, very convenient. We didn’t utilize all the amenities offered, but the host, Chaz, thought of everything. Board games, DVDs, fishing poles, bikes, and of course the kayaks and golf cart. You won’t get bored on a rainy day! Chaz was easy to communicate with and answered us quickly anytime we asked questions. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again! Thank you Chaz!

Amazing EVERYTHING, Fantastic Getaway

This has been the most fabulous vacation for our family of 3, including our13 yr old daughter, plus our pups. The cabin is exactly as pictured, the cleanest rental we have ever seen, spotless, and the most amazing host and property manager you could ask for! This place has absolutely everything you could need and then some! From the golf cart and the kayaks to the little details like tons of board games, an outside carnival style basketball game and a large comfortable couch and smart TV! Everything you need is already there and in pristine working order, even down to measuring cups, a can opener and a huge crock pot. The back yard view is stunning and there is a ton of various birds and other wildlife! The front screen porch is shady and cool to sit and enjoy an outside meal. So many things to do and see very close by. We rented a boat and spent the entire time swimming on the beautiful crystal clear Rainbow river. This cabin is literally 5 mins from town, less than 10 mins from the Rainbow river and there is even a boat ramp right in the neighborhood for access to multiple other local waterways! Just hook up the provided kayaks to the golf cart on site and put in at the neighborhood ramp, or tow with your vehicle to other local boat ramps! Definitely would recommend this location and host. Very impressed and I am admittedly hard to please 🤣 PS. The beds and linens provided are extremely comfortable too!

Weekend get away

The stay was very comfortable and met all expectations for our stay. We do have a boat and hoped to use the neighborhood launch. The launch is not for boats but for canoes, paddle boards, etc. which were available at the cabin. The public ramp is only about a 15 minute drive, but extremely busy. Get started early, but very worth it. Overall the stay was relaxing and enjoyable.
