Perched directly on the Suwannee River and spanning over 12 acres with abundant wildlife and trails, this waterfront property offers a beautiful, secluded location amid the peacefulness of nature.

Take in the river views from the comfort of your screened porch while you watch the kids play in the yard sprinkled with large oak and pecan trees. Or head directly to the water to experience it firsthand. Your retreat includes kayaks, a covered boat dock, a boat ramp for launching your boat or jet skis, and a charming deck along the river that is great for fishing. Spend fun-filled days on the water; it's only eight minutes by kayak to Hart Spring. Then head home to unwind in the hammock while the chef prepares a cookout on the grill (a gas grill, charcoal grill, and smoker are provided). End your vacation days with fireside chats around the wood-burning firepit.

Inside, wood floors, exposed beams, and rustic-chic decor create a lodge-like vibe. Wall-to-wall windows in the living area showcase views of the Suwannee River, and the sleek modern kitchen boasts a full suite of upscale stainless steel appliances. Enjoy the cozy reading nook offering great views from a picture window and a library full of books. Extra perks include a large collection of DVDs and board games.

When venturing out, Osceola Heritage Park and the center of Old Town are a short drive away. Check out Cedar Key with wonderful oceanfront dining. Cruise 45 minutes to Gainesville.

Explore many springs within roughly 30 minutes, including Manatee Springs, Fanning Springs, Ginnie Springs, and Ichetucknee Springs or the lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge.

Suwannee river gem
This house was perfect for our trip. The house had exactly what we needed and the yard was a dream. Right on the river with beautiful views from the house and dock, kayaks for exploring and an awesome firepit to enjoy s’mores.

Seriously need to think before renting it out again
Don’t waste your time or money! This is our second year coming to this cabin and very sad to say this will be our last. The entire house was infested with roaches and not clean what’s so ever. It seems that they know there is an issue with roaches because the entire house is covered in roach bait. Absolutely disgusting and now an issue we have to deal with going back into our home.

Stay on the Suwannee
We enjoyed our stay at this home so much, we are thinking about going back in July. We have a 23 foot center console with a hard top. The private boat ramp was great and the boat fit under the roof of the covered dock. We enjoyed the fire pit every night we were there. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home.

We made this family trip to participate in Scallop Season. Unfortunately, we were rained out the entire week. But this home saved the day! There is plenty to do whether the sun is shining or not. The fishing was great. The home is well appointed. We will definitely stay here again!

Cabin on the Suwanee
My family and I enjoyed making memories on the Suwanee. Campfires , cornhole , nature walk , and relaxing in a hammock in the many beautiful trees on the property . Inside the cabin is all new and clean! Enjoyed playing games and watching some old movies on the DVD player.

Great spot right on the river
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the house and the river, played a lot of frisbee and cornhole, took the kayaks up river, and generally just enjoyed ourselves the entire time. There were some problems with the wifi (password didn't work) and cell reception was unreliable. Aside from that, great place.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place was so adorable. My boys loved exploring the land. It feels like you’re away from everyone. The river is right next to the house and you can kayak if you want to. The house is quaint with its 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It was very clean and fully stocked with everything you need.If you are looking for a fun adventure, with a beautiful river view, then you definitely want to stay here.

The Best - Family Vaca!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our only complaint for this lovely place is that we needed more time to really relax and enjoy it. The location is just perfect, not too far from town but also very private. The views from the front screened in large porch is just wonderful as well as having morning mimosas on the river gazebo. The dock right at your door step is great to put the boat in. We didn't have time to use the fire pit or BBQ but will stay longer next time. This is one place that the pictures really didnt do it justice. Everything inside was so neat and clean and set up so well for groups. Kitchen stocked so well, even an air fryer! Decor is so cute and modern, tv works well and hides in the tv cabinet till you want to use. One of the nicest things about this place is the great communication from the host and how nice and accommodating he is. We have family in Florida just down the road from here and this will be our go to for future family gatherings.
