10/10 Excellent
"Very easy check in/check out. Plenty of kitchen pans, dishes, utensils, and small appliances. Comfortable rooms and beds. The location is a gem! Quiet and peaceful river setting and convenient for short drives to many great places for fishing, beaches, springs. We plan on visiting again. Host has lots of towels which is great considering the river and proximity to Lafayette blue springs/ Ichetucknee springs for swimming!"

Waterfront Scallop & Fish Spot! Private Dock 2 boats + Ice Machine—Pet Friendly

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful weekend stay! The house was exactly as described, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We all slept comfortably and really enjoyed being right on the saltwater canal.The location was perfect for bringing our boat. The canal leads directly to the Gulf, and we were able to be out scalloping within about 15 minutes! The canal is shallow, so you do need to pay attention to the tides when coming and going by boat, but this was very manageable. There is also a local boat ramp just a short distance away if needed.Overall, we had a great experience and loved the easy access to the Gulf. It was a perfect spot for a boating and scalloping weekend, and we would definitely stay again!"

"The staff were very friendly and engaging which was nice. The property was clean and as was the room. Only two minor issues was the bathroom. It's small so you have to either step inside shower to close door or stand in between toilet and shower to close door Only other minor issues is pillows. I'd advise bringing your own or asking if they can give an additional one as hey don't provide much support for sleeping. Overall nice experience with lot of different food choices"
