The cabin is located on a completely native wooded acreage right on the withlacoochee river! Florida's most scenic river.
There are 2 kayaks and a 3 person canoe ready for you to take out on an adventure down the river.

The entire property is completely fenced and there is even a separate fenced in paddock close to the cabin so bring your horses to enjoy the horse friendly trails that start right down the road...

River frontage and great views from the cabin and the two decks. One is right on the river's edge overlooking the river. Sit out by the fire pit for a warm fire and roasting marshmallows on the cooler evenings.

Fantastic stay
We were enchanted with the house that seems to be in the trees, and the property was heaven for our dog to roam. Rob and Mike have left a very interesting and informative booklet. We took advantage of their hiking selections which are very close to the property. We'd love to visit again!

Nice Getaway!!!
This is a nice getaway location. Overall, this property allows you to get away from the hustle and bustle to relax. I did see pet hair on the rugs, but it was not overwhelming. This property is well kept, has a grill, fire pit, and kayaks.

We had an amazing time staying here. Our kids and dogs really loved the property and being so close to the river. It was a cute little cabin with everything we needed to cook and be comfortable. The fire pit was great to sit around. We really enjoyed our time here.

Relaxing paradise
My husband and I stood here for an anniversary weekend and it was awesome!! It was just us and our fur babies and it felt like we were a million miles away from civilization. The tranquility of it all was amazing. The fur babies loved the fact that they could roam around leash free, or just relax under the warm sun. We definitely recommend this place for anyone who just want to unwind and spend time together. We will DEFINITELY be back!! Thank you Rob and Mike for being just awesome hosts!!

Gem on the river
My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time! Live the rustic setting, the driveway through the trees to where you can’t see the property from the road is my ideal type of place! It’s right on the river. We spent time fishing, hanging around the fire pit, relaxing, and cooking on the grill. Would definitely return for another weekend here!

Great weekend getaway
Our stay was the perfect way to unwind and spend some time outside. The property was fenced and our pups were able to enjoy themselves. Check in was a breeze and the hosts were kind and quick to respond to any questions. As a florida native I would absolutely recommend this stay.

Home away from home.
What an amazing place. Very peaceful and relaxing. The cabin is just beautiful. Phenomenal amenities. And dog friendly to. If you are looking to unwind this is definitely the place. All you need to do is bring food and your clothes. The host Rob&Mile were absolutely awesome. . Always responded quickly. Even called to see if we needed more firewood. And invited us out to their ranch to pet the goats and mini horses which my granddaughter absolutely loved. Thank you guys so much for everything. Definitely made some wonderful memories here. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend this place to unwind.

About the host

Hosted by Rob and Mike

Host profile image
Rob and Mike purchased this property as a get away... They wanted to be close to the Withlacoochee River, Forest and Rails to Trails bike path..... While initially only visiting the property once a month they quickly grew to love the area and all that it has to offer. A few years ago they decided to look for a permanent home in the area that would be able to accommodate their love of animals and give them space to have more... Well they found the perfect place... Not far from the River House, in Sumter County a 60 acre ranch where they raise their goats, horses,chickens, donkeys and cattle on their own piece of heaven. Not wanting to completely part with the River House , they decided to rent it out as a vacation spot to travelers, so others could experience it.

Why they chose this property

Picking out this River House was easy.... The first time they saw this property they wrote an offer to purchase.... It was just that simple. Where else can you find a house on stilts that makes you feel like you are in a tree house on the river!

What makes this property unique

The property has this amazing trail that winds around the woods... with gopher tortoises checking you out as you pass them, and almost the entire property is shaded by oak trees... It has a great mystical feel!
