Absolutely Amazing Stay – A Hidden Gem!I can't rave enough about our stay at this beautiful cabin! The house was absolutely stunning, with plenty of space for our family of six. It was clean, well laid out, and not overly cluttered, which made it super easy for everyone to move around comfortably.The owner truly went above and beyond — providing everything from cooking essentials to a basket of snacks, portable fans, and more. We were especially impressed by the thoughtful touches that made the cabin feel like home.And let’s talk about the lake… absolutely breathtaking! The owner graciously provided kayaks and floats — enough for our entire family to enjoy the water together. It was such a peaceful and scenic spot. The neighbors were really kind and as well! The location is great too: only about 20 minutes from stores like Scaff’s and Family Dollar, and close to Ichetucknee Springs, which made for an awesome day trip.If you're on the fence about booking this place — stop thinking and just book it. It was worth every single dime. We’re already planning to make this our annual vacation spot!
