Adorable Cottage Next To Rainbow River & Blue Run!

The cottage is very close to Blue Run which gives you free access to the spring fed Rainbow River for boating, tubing, kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing! Located close to a waterfront restaurant with waterfront dining. Downtown Dunnellon offers restaurants, shopping and even antiquing. Publix, Aldi, Walmart, CVS and other stores are also very close for essentials.

Our cottage is absolutely adorable and sparkling clean! All of our furnishings and bedding are new and always fresh for a good night sleep. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare meals. We have an outdoor grill so just bring your charcoal! The backyard has chairs, fire pit and 3 kayaks! Since we are not on the water you will need your own truck/vehicle to transport the kayaks to the river. Smart TVs are in the living room and bedroom. A few games, dice and cards are provided.

There is a 50+ mile bike trail you can hop on right from the cottage! We have 2 bikes in the shed you can use or bring your own! The roads coming in and out of the neighborhood right now are a little bumpy. Waiting on the city to fix them.

Amazing cottage, perfect location

We stayed for 4 days and we couldn't be happier! Super clean, with everything we needed. Very close to the rainbow river and the kayaks provided by the host made our stay even more convenient. It is a perfect location for a couple! I highly recommend!

Fantastic Little Cottage Getaway

You'll want to stay here! Absolutely the nicest, cleanest, cutest, everything you need & more, place to be! From the moment you walk through the front door, you feel welcomed. It smelled wonderful, the hosts had a winter scene on the TV with jazz music playing (our favorite) & a wonderful surprise of a heart shape made out of rose petals & tea light candles on the guest bed! It was our 30th anniversary getaway, & that just made our day! So thoughtful, thank you. It's close to both rivers for walking, kayaking & riding a bike. Lots of places to eat close by & after a long day, you get to come 'home' to cozy, comfortable furniture & a very comfortable bed. The hosts attention to detail with their guests in mind, will not go unnoticed. Can't wait to come back! Thank you so much :)

Excellent stay!

We had such an amazing experience here at your place! Upon arriving, I was a little taken back because it “looked” so small. BUT, as soon as I opened the door, I was blown away by the presentation! The ambience- from the gentle music playing on the television (like a five star hotel), the cleanliness, the decorations, the neutral colors, and most importantly the smell! Oh how lovely! It was more than enough space for our family of three! (even a family of 4) The linen smelled exceptionally clean! I’m a smell person, so this means a lot to me! The small add-ins; cotton balls, Q-tips, extra blankets-that smelled great, shampoo/conditioner, soap, the overall set up was just exceptional. you have done an excellent job with this place. We had one issue with the Internet and Chris was swinging by in no time. Thank you! We will be back and will be recommending your place to friends and family! Thank you!! Wendy

Cute, Cozy, & Convenient!

This bungalow was perfect for us to explore Dunnellon and the rainbow river. The house is very comfortable to be in and well provisioned. We did not cook there but I love the fact that they were spices and things that you would not think to bring on vacation available to use. We loved it and highly recommend this home.
