To the west down the Withlacoochee, you will see nature at its finest with otters playing, turtles basking and majestic cypress trees swaying in the wind. To the west still are miles and miles of Wetlands with a navigable channel through it all and with a vast array of wildlife, it is truly a beautiful site to see and it’s all directly accessible from our dock.

Ladies Weekend in Paradise

I can not express how impressed I was with this property. It was perfect for our ladies retreat and it was even more fabulous than I imagined. The place was very clean, the furniture was nice, and comfortable and I could not have asked for a better place to have our gathering. Heather was beyond flexible from beginning to end. I will definitely get this VRBO again! WE ALL LOVED IT!

Perfect house, all the amenities and a very special place

Having grown up in Florida, we were looking for a quiet bend in the river with enough space and comforts for a multi-family getaway. We were more than impressed with the house. Very spacious with a nice layout and very good quality amenities. Huge common areas and a great kitchen plus an amazing riverfront patio, fire pit and dock, and a heated pool. The host was very kind and responsive. It was everything we were looking for and we hope to go back in the future. Great spot.

About the host

Hosted by Heather Robinson

Host profile image
We started visiting this area a few years ago and enjoyed it so much that we decided to purchase it as a get away home as we live in the city and we liked that we could drive a fairly short distance and have the peace and quiet with only the sounds of nature with a lot less population.

Why they chose this property

We would bring our boat up here when we visited and actually saw this house for sale from the water and it was the views that actually made our minds up that this was the property we wanted. Our plan is to retire up here.

What makes this property unique

The other side of the river is unspoiled and you will only see nature at its finest and maybe some river otters at play.
