Peaceful and relaxing

We had a wonderful stay. I loved all the detail and art. The home was equipped with everything you need and more. There's so much to see and do from the home itself to the outside shower, to the fire pit, canoe and kayaks. The owners are very helpful and quick to respond. The river is beautiful and the family room has everything from music, tv to board games oh and binoculars. So much that we weren't able to get it all in one weekend so we're definitely looking at some future stays again. A big thank you to Mike and Rob for letting us stay and for such a lovely birthday weekend at the cabin. My only complaint is I didn't catch any fish! Lol but that means we'll have to go back and try again. Thank you for the lovely gift basket and love the signing book!💖

River House Anniversary Stay

This was a perfect getaway for us. Far enough to get away from the everyday hustle, but close enough to the normal comforts. Check in was very easy, everything was clearly communicated, and a great little basket of goodies was made available to us. We caught a few fish, watched some wildlife, took out dog to enjoy the nearby trails, and we were pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the bed was. We will absolutely keep the River House on a short list of preferred places to visit again!

Awesome place!

This place has an amazing location on the Withlacoochee river, and made for a great time paddling, relaxing, grilling, biking, and letting the dogs run. I couldn't have enjoyed it more. Thanks.

Beautiful, relaxing experience.

My husband, myself, kids ages 4 and 10, and our pup had an amazing time here. The cabin style house built up in the trees, really made it feel like we were staying in a tree house. The property is beautiful and tranquil. You are transported to such a relaxing, peaceful mindset. The hosts are so nice and easy to contact. My kids loved being able to fish off the dock and hangout outside all day and even into the night. You could let the kids and dog go and run around with no worries. We went on the trails that are near by and they were so beautiful. Its an amazing place to get out into nature and a unique experience. We will absolutely be back and stay for longer! Best vacation ever so far. Highly recommend and VERY dog friendly!

About the host

Hosted by Rob and Mike

Rob and Mike purchased this property as a get away... They wanted to be close to the Withlacoochee River, Forest and Rails to Trails bike path..... While initially only visiting the property once a month they quickly grew to love the area and all that it has to offer. A few years ago they decided to look for a permanent home in the area that would be able to accommodate their love of animals and give them space to have more... Well they found the perfect place... Not far from the River House, in Sumter County a 60 acre ranch where they raise their goats, horses,chickens, donkeys and cattle on their own piece of heaven. Not wanting to completely part with the River House , they decided to rent it out as a vacation spot to travelers, so others could experience it.

Why they chose this property

Picking out this River House was easy.... The first time they saw this property they wrote an offer to purchase.... It was just that simple. Where else can you find a house on stilts that makes you feel like you are in a tree house on the river!

What makes this property unique

The property has this amazing trail that winds around the woods... with gopher tortoises checking you out as you pass them, and almost the entire property is shaded by oak trees... It has a great mystical feel!
