Rasayana Cove is a 25-acre eco-retreat located in the heartland of west central Florida. An hour's drive east of Sarasota surrounded by vast tracts of orange groves and ranch land, Rasayana Cove has been operating as a small retreat center since 1995. The long eastern boundary borders Horse Creek, a major tributary of the Peace River. The property features two spring-fed ponds - one small and the other large.  The cabins are accessible by well constructed shell-topped roads with good drainage and a variety of nature pathways.  A natural ecosystem remains undisturbed in the middle of the property - a Florida bay head of native flora and wildlife. While most of the state is crowded and overdeveloped, this eco-retreat offers a haven of peace in the pristine nature of Florida

Gorgeous site!
This site was picturesque and serene. We saw an incredible array of flora and fauna. The host D’nesh was accommodating and kind. We had a lovely time and will definitely be returning soon!

Floridian Nature
A fine spread of land that captures the spirit of old Florida with a living creek and mature pastures surrounded by woods and mature oaks. This is a good place to decompress and connect to Mother Earth. Dennis was a gracious host and we were grateful for the experience. Thank you

If you love to find unique places to stay and don't mind rustic, this is the place to experience deep Florida. It is peaceful & secluded with beautiful old trees & foliage. As soon as we stepped out of our vehicle, we were greeted by hooting from an owl. We stayed in the treehouse cabin, which had 2 lofted beds that kids will love. Shower outdoors with nature...time it right to have warmer water. No one was occupying the other cabin, so all we could hear were natural sounds. Host, D'Nesh, is easy to get a hold of and so friendly. We enjoyed his stories about how he landed on this lush property. We were able to find shark teeth at a beach a little over an hour away. Ended our stay with an alligator sighting on the way out!

Great stay here for my Bachelor Party! Cabins have a lot of charm, beds are comfortable. Perfect for fall in Florida with cool nights, not much electricity but if you are prepared it’s a great getaway. Dennis is a great host!
