Great place. Absolutely beautiful. Plenty of everything needed to make it feel as comfortable as home. Smart tvs in all rooms.if you were home. Beds were comfy. Scenery is gorgeous. Grounds well maintained and house is decorated with some really cool artwork. . Host was very welcoming and helpful. . House is very roomy and felt like a perfect hime away from home. Recomend hoghly.
What a wonderful place to escape from the busyness of life. The house sits like it's on a peninsula-water views everywhere. The rush of the river is like constant white-noise, providing a wonderful ambiance to enjoy conversation, games, and landscape. If you are looking to kayak or paddleboard, come with experience and lifejackets, as while we were there,the river moved much to fast for anyone to paddle back upstream.

About the host
Hosted by Jolene Howell
Me and my husband both were raised in Steinhatchee Fl. I lived on the Gulf and he lived up the river. We have 3 amazing children and we love all things water,fishing and hiking. After 40 years in Fl. We moved to Tennessee for work purposes but absolutely love it here as well. We really are blessed with the best of both worlds. We still spend much of our time in Florida as we love to fish on the river and in the gulf as well as scalloping.
