Summary: Beautiful house, great location, beds are nice. LOts of extra blankets, games for the kids, Bathrooms are very very nice. Parking is tight. The only issue we had was there was no power to dock for lights or to charge the boats, Tiffany tired to help us but we couldn't figure it out. It was ok we enjoyed the dock anyways. We did not use the stove top because I was scared of the crack in it. We would rent again.

ERICA Jun 19, 2024 01:17:02 AM
Summary: This house is beautiful inside and out. The convenience of having the docks for our boat was a huge plus. Anyime we visit the river from now on we will stay here. The home and property is well equipped with all cooking and living necessities.

Summary: Everything was great about our stay. It was a short weekend but the house was perfect. It was an excellent location, the house was clean, beds were comfy and it had everything you could possibly need or want. Not to mention the view was amazing! I will definitely be booking again but for a longer stay next time!

Summary: This was our second stay at this house and we will for sure be back AGAIN! The location and views are AMAZING! Wish we could share pics w/ the review b/c we have so many great pictures. Sunsets are amazing and fish were aplenty. This vacation was everything we didn't know we needed. We appreciated the slow down from the hustle & bustle and got some much needed R&R. The locals were all so friendly everywhere we went, and even the neighbors were super friendly. Great little fishing retreat with our boys (10 & 13).

Summary: Beautiful place Very relaxing
ALYSHA H. Jun 30, 2023 11:01:20 AM
Summary: This was the best well-stocked short-term rental we have ever stayed in! Many times, even with notes about what is provided/not provided, you have to over-pack just to have the essentials - especially regarding the kitchen - but not at this property! The location and photos were just as you see online.
Pauline H. Apr 14, 2023 11:00:44 AM
Summary: If you are looking for a relaxing getaway, book NOW! This home has everything you could want and more! Convenient to the springs, boat rental, groceries, restaurants, etc. House was stocked with all you could need and MORE. Our family time spent on the dock was memories that will last a lifetime. The giant bait net was amazing and we "accidentally" caught a TON of crab in the trap. Our boys (8 & 12) had a BLAST! We visited the springs during the day and fished all night. House was immaculate, owners were friendly & responsive, and the private dock was incredible. We can't recommend this property enough!

Summary: The house was great! The owners did a great job. It’s an updated prefab with a big addition well planned facing the river. The only issues were confirmation to check in went to our spam. We tried message evolve, they never answer to this day. We tried several times on our check in day and no answer. Evolve should have noticed there was no communication from property manager to us. Which a key code we can’t access. Luckily last minute we reached out to VRBO 1800 and they gave us property manager cell #. She replied immediately. Someone should of followed up since check in day had arrived. Other than a poor communication issue. The only thing that was not up to par were the beds especially the master. The mattress is springy soft and saggy. I would invest in mattresses and go with med at the least. Aside from that, the house is great. We enjoyed breakfast lunch and dinners peacefully watching the river and beautiful sunsets. The owners did a great job with the house. Its simple and cozy. We rented a pontoon and went to the springs one day. Great getaway with 4 teenagers. We went to Kennedy space center and St Agutine. We are grateful with the owners providing there place for us to enjoy. Evolve should do a better job of communicating though.
