Comfort Suites Dunnellon near Rainbow Springs

"Very good place to stay"

Pet friendly free use of kayaks,bikes great dock and screen room fenced yard

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot peaceful quiet get away beautiful house. great dock out back beautiful scenery from the canoe"

Beautiful secluded setting on the Rainbow River surrounded by state forest

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous! We spent a full week, and enjoyed every minute. The location is a showcase of what makes natural Florida so beautiful. We're wildlife enthusiasts; so we spent hours kayaking and sitting on the dock scoping out the anhingas and cormorants fishing, wood ducks, barred owls, belted kingfishers, otters... I could go on and on. What a treat! We found the hosts had provided everything you could possibly need. Kayaks, paddle boards, and tubes with the required life jackets and whistles. The house itself was clean and neat as a pin with a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and plenty of seating. You can tell the hosts care about keeping their property in the best condition possible. We appreciated being able to bring our dog along, too. We hope to be able to return again!"

Stunning Withlacoochee Riverside Retreat near Rainbow Rivers sleeps 16 5br 4ba

10/10 Excellent

"Kurt, Sharon & their home were amazing hosts to our group. We had 3 families with kids ranging from 8 months to 13 years. The home was well appointed to keep everyone entertained and off screens :)Everything is organized and descriptive, including which lights are on the switches and which dishes go where in the cabinets.The home is tucked back, well off the main road, right on the river, quiet, and relaxing.The dock was the fan favorite, with great fishing. At night you can see owls perched on the cypress trees and listen to the symphony of nature, as a fire burns in the pit.The town and Rainbow River is just down the street 15 minutes away.We would happily return again!"

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay! The property was beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. Our family truly enjoyed our time there. Everything was thoughtfully prepared, from the fully equipped kitchen to all the amenities and utilities we needed. We especially loved the home’s décor—it made the space feel warm and welcoming—and the pier was a wonderful place to relax.Although we didn’t get the chance to use the kayaks, we did enjoy the fishing gear that was available, which was a great bonus. Overall, this home exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. We hope to come back again in the future. Highly recommend!"
