This place was truly magical and one of the best trips we’ve ever taken as a family. From the moment we drove through the gates, we were in awe. The property is stunning, with so many thoughtfully designed areas to explore and enjoy. We played capture the flag on the grounds, walked the beautiful trails, and picnicked in different spots each day thanks to the multiple swings and peaceful sitting areas throughout.The kids had a blast with all the games, both inside and out. Every corner of the home and property offered something new to enjoy. The house far exceeded our expectations. It is incredibly well equipped, beautifully maintained, and you can tell the owners take great pride in it, as they should. Everything was so comfortable, from the soft sheets to the layout with two master bedrooms, making it easy for our whole group to relax.The Riverview is breathtaking and having the spring just steps from the property made this stay extra special. We also visited Ichetucknee Springs and several other nearby springs during our trip. We will definitely be back. This was an unforgettable experience.

Beautiful home and property.
Spent Thanksgiving holiday here with family. Was very nice place and having “spreading out room” on the property was wonderful. Afternoon games and a little fishing (didn’t catch anything but….) was the perfect getaway and no crowds to worry about like being at popular destinations. Owners very pleasant and easy to work with and despite the recent storms, the property was surprisingly well maintained. Would highly recommend for a getaway from it all.

Thanksgiving on the River
What a fabulous Thanksgiving on the Suwannee. A wonderful kitchen full of awesome smells and the chatter of family. An open floor plan with the Parade on and a wine fridge to support the mimosas flowing. The beds in every room were super comfy and the house and its grounds have a special energy that kept me and my family entertained - I never opened the computer up and that is saying something!
Jacqueline was an awesome and responsive host - as she was the last time I was here.I hope to be here again soon.

Better than we could have imagined
This place was amazing. First off the host allowed for an earlier check in for our group. This was much needed as our group was traveling from 2 different states. When we arrived we were blown away by the place. Property was beautiful and the house was amazing. Pictures could never fully encapsulate how great this place looks. Right on the river with a spring right next door. Bedrooms were large and sleeping arrangements allowed for all 8 people to have their own bed. The host answered quickly to all of our questions. We are a group who travel once a year to a destination and have bee doing this for years.....this was one of the best trips we have ever taken. We will be back.

Private resort vibes - river style
Stayed here with a group of 12. It was spacious and comfy for all of us. The pictures do not do this place justice! It was absolutely beautiful! There is so much space and so many different areas to hang out that it felt like a private resort. The host was great and answered any questions we had. There were armadillos and deer all over the property that were exciting to see. I can't say enough nice things about this place.

A Few Day Get-Away on the River
This property is amazing in size, location and activity. Lafayette Blue Springs State park is a short drive from the house and serves as a unique landing to float the day on the river back to the house. The spring next door is lively with turtles, fish and bubbling water from below. There was ample space, utensiles, cookware and toiletriesis for all in my party, and more than enough space around the fire pit. Jacqueline is a very responsive and kind host who made me feel welcome from the start of my booking. There was a slight discrepancy between the checkout time VRBO listed in email and that which Jacqueline instructed, but she was very understanding and we worked things out without issue. I highly recommend this house, property and host. It was a trip!

Great Fishing And Views Of The River
This is a beautiful, clean home with a great view and access to the river. The host was very quick to repond to my messages. We had great success with fishing during our stay. The quiet location made it a great place to view wildlife such as deer, gators and many birds. The water level was very low during our stay, this created a steep drop off to the water. We could still reach it by the boat ramp and by the stairs on the other side of the bridge. However, the bank was very muddy and uneven. The kids ages 4-15 enjoyed the many games and activities around the property. I would have liked to of had more available cleaning supplies such as paper towels, soap etc. and beach towels or something besides nice clean white towels to clean the kiddos up after a day of playing outside. We also didn't have enough of the proper size life jackets for everyone in our group to enjoy a canoe ride. We also thought the yard would of been a great place to play soccer etc.but the grass was too tall.
