Words can’t describe the peace we found at this amazing cabin! The hosts thought of everything! It is off the beaten path, which was exactly what we wanted, so the thoughtful touches really made a big difference! The porch bed was perfect for afternoon reading and naps and was even an amazing bed for me to spend the night on escaping my husbands snoring! 😂 we had a fire going the whole time for hot dogs, smores and warmth and loved the cool nights just relaxing! This was a Thanksgiving getaway with nothing but relaxation on the agenda, but we are looking forward to returning when the docks are ready and the weather is warm enough to do some exploring with the kayaks! The spices, bath amenities, amazing air fresheners, games and supplies were such an amazing surprise - enhancing our experience and solidifying this as a future vacation spot! Thank you Kelli and Grant!

The home was beautiful and well kept, wonderfully stocked kitchen, very clean. However, I rented this specific home for water access to the Swanee river. No access to the water! Upon arrival the dock was roped off due to storm damage. I understand recent weather events but we should have been notified immediately that this was no longer accessible. Our entire vacation was planned around the ability to access the water... Fish, kayak, etc. I would have still chose to stay at this hidden gem but would have appreciated the heads up. This would have allowed the time to accommodate the change in plans. Instead we spent the time here relaxing and enjoying the view.

Great view, the hanging bed, and soaking tub were some of my favorite things from our stay. We have needed a vacation for far too long and this wasn’t as long as we would’ve liked but felt fulfilled. Well worth the money spent and the hosts are so accommodating. We hit a couple snags during our stay and if we hadn’t had their help, could’ve had a much different overall experience. We can’t wait to come back again.

We’ve stayed here twice and it was really great. Very relaxing, secluded, and the house has everything needed to feel right at home.
