We had a wonderful stay! The property is beautiful and the house is so cute. Everything we needed was included and the host was always just a text away!
This property is beautiful! The hosts Cindy & Rick are amazing! It’s walking distance to Renegades and waking up with the view of the river was amazing!! We literally are already talking about when we can go again!! 10 out of 10!!
We enjoyed our getaway at The Reeling Inn very much. This is a great rental and we were very pleased and satisfied with all the accommodations provided. An added benefit was having our host staying nearby and available to answer questions about the area, etc. We will look forward to returning and staying here again.
This will now be our go to property when we visit Lake George area. Property was pristine and the owners were very easy to communicate with and very friendly. We will definitely be back!!!
Great place on the St. John’s River. Great place for a boat. Great place for relaxing and grilling dinner on the deck with a beverage and watching a perfect sunset. Great place to o prepare for and stay. Simply put, Great Place!
It’s hard finding the words to describe how much I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. It felt like a true home away from home. Cindy is a wonderful host! She goes above and beyond to provide you with a carefree stay. It is very obvious that they truly care for the home and their guests. The home is beautiful with a gorgeous deck that overlooks the water and dock. Plus, the sunsets were gorgeous every night. I absolutely cannot wait to come back.
House was perfect for our family. Great location, great view. The dock was awesome. Kids enjoyed the water and wildlife, and central to plenty of restaurants. Homeowner was very accessible and helpful. Thanks for having us!
clean, calm, and hidden away from the world. Highly recommend this slice of heaven on the St Johns River. Next door to renegades campground for some great times and far away enough for the privacy. Brand new dock to enjoy the boat with family and friends. Will be back soon!
We enjoyed our long weekend. Did some boating and some fishing. The house was beautiful and comfortable.
A time to relax on the deck and watch the sunset. We will be back ! Butch & Trina
5 Star property with 10 Star owners. Reasons for 4 stars on the location: long sandy driveway entrance ( not conducive to motorcycle) and some abandoned neighborhood properties. Quiet, peaceful and the best fishing in the world right off the brand new dock. Local restaurants cook up the best fresh seafood. Don’t miss out on this Old Florida Gem!
Reeling Inn is adorable, impressive and everything we needed for the perfect weekend boating getaway ! Cindy and her husband were excellent hosts ! The cottage is updated, extremely clean, fully stocked kitchen and 2 bedrooms with en-suite baths. What a pleasure to have a fully enclosed Florida room with climate control and day bed for relaxing in the evening. Large deck outside with Adirondack chairs and fire pit was the perfect gathering place after retuning from boating all day. Location is ideal for night time fun at Renegades on the River -a walk or ride just minutes away. Sit out on the deck or the beautiful dock and enjoy the live music from afar! We even had a friendly squirrel that we hand fed- seems he or she has adjusted to visitors and is very tame! Booking several more trips at this sweet cottage ! Relax, refresh and reset at this river cottage- for a no stress weekend!
House was perfect for 4 adults (2 couples). Everything is like new and very modern. Clean and well kept. Awesome view off the deck! Once the dock is completed this place will be perfect! I bet it will stay rented all the time!! (Bonus: owners let us use their dock, right next door, to park our boats until this house’s dock is completed)
They were very nice and accommodating! Even checking on us (by message)half way through the stay to see if we needed anything! Definitely recommend!!!
We had a great time relaxing, fishing, and playing games. The dock for the house is waiting on repairs but Cindy let us use hers. We caught about 20 fish. If I could make two suggestions a patio umbrella or 2 for additional shade on the deck and tint the sliding glass doors to reduce the heat and your summer utilities bill for the patio room. The sunsets are absolutely beautiful. We would definitely go back.
This property was perfect for our fishing trip. The owners could not have been more accommodating. Please consider this property for your Florida getaway.
We enjoyed our stay, would definitely go back. Beautiful property, everything exactly like pictures. Extremely clean! Sitting on a beautiful river with beautiful sunsets! We didn’t meet the owners, but they were quick to reply to any questions we had before booking.
