About this property

"High On The River" a quaint cabin resting along the upper Steinhatchee River.

"High On The River" is a peaceful escape along the upper Steinhatchee River. Located down a dead end road in the woods. Across the river is Conservation Land so you will hear lots of birds, crickets, owls, and frogs. If your lucky you may even spot deer, wild boar, bobcats, otter, gators, or manatees. This is a natural "Old Florida" environment complete with critters and bugs. Bug spray is recommended when outdoors during the warmer months. Launch your kayak, paddleboard, or canoe from the floating dock and paddle up-river to Steinhatchee Falls or down-river to the Gulf of Mexico. Plenty of yard space for a trailered boat which can be launched at the Taylor County Boat Ramp only a 10 minute drive. The upper Steinhatchee River is only suitable for small boats such as a kayak, canoe, paddleboard, or small Jon boat. Also, the upper portion of the River is affected by the tides so it can get very shallow and rocky in some spots during low tides.

Master bedroom has split king Tempur-Pedic mattresses with an on-suite bathroom with walk-in shower. Second bedroom has a full size bed, with nearby 2nd bathroom complete with tub/shower combo. Living room is large with a 65" TV, high speed Wifi, sofa, large comfy beanbag chair and recliner. Well equipped kitchen with gas stove, full size refrigerator, microwave & coffee maker. The water heater is an on-demand system, assuring all guests have a nice warm shower after a long day. Large screened in porch facing the river with rocking chairs and sectional sofa. Perfect spot for that afternoon nap. The washer and dryer are also located on the porch.

Gazebo with table for dining out by the river. Fishing pier and cleaning station for your fish and scallops. Charcoal Grill. Property is completely fenced except for portions along the river. Well behaved pets allowed with supervision. A one-dog kennel on-site if needed. You must be able to climb a full flight of stairs as the house is on the second floor. The river bank is a sensitive area so NO climbing, walking, or disrupting the river bank in any way. Access the river by dock only. We hope you enjoy your stay!
