Cave Divers Springs Escape, Sleeps 10+, Relaxing Patio, Fire Pit, Spa Tub

Super cute and spacious private 3 bedroom home on 4 acres really lets you enjoy the country life. Only a few miles from several springs and the famous Suwanee river. (Literally have 10 springs within 39 miles). A few of the springs are: Little River Springs (my favorite), Ichetucknee springs, Ginnie Springs, Royal spring, Rum Island, Hart springs, Blue Springs, Poe springs and so many more.
Set up a nice evening fire or grill out on the spacious patio. We also have a projector available for movie nights under the stars with outdoor lounge chairs ( my families favorite). If you like staying in, try out the new spa style tub with candle lights or painting a canvas! While our home may not be perfect, its our perfect country get away!

Accommodating, clean, comfortable. House had everything we needed for our stay. Lovely, quiet, secluded area. Old Florida feeling. Had some technical issues with check in but was due to Expedia and VRBO not rental owner. Property owner was helpful and very responsive to messages. Would love to book again in the future.

My new favorite place to stay while at the springs!
Everything was perfect! The host even left beverages in the fridge for me!! The beds were comfy and the ac worked amazingly! That is all that I care about when traveling. Coming back from the springs all day to the fire pit was relaxing. Just what my soul needed for the weekend. This was my second time staying and we will be back. Thank you for hosting such a great place.

Spring Break Getaway
My husband and I needed a getaway from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. We were more than pleased with this rental! We enjoyed taking walks up and down the quiet roads of the neighborhood. The springs were beautiful and very easy to find since they were not far from the rental. I highly recommend this rental and will stay again when visiting our family who live in the area. We also found our host very accommodating when a last-minute change to our booking came up. Brianna responded quickly and took care of everything for us. Thank you for your lovely and spacious rental!

Lovely home with close access to many springs and the Suwannee River
Booked this as a last minute mini spring break trip. When I realized I booked the wrong dates they were super quick to respond and change my dates for me. House was clean, with lots of space and peace and quite. While it was too cold to enjoy all the surrounding springs, we still visited several of them as well as take a canoe trip for down the Suwannee River. So many options within 15-30 mins. I will definitely book again for a summer trip.

Perfect Home away from Home
This home is very beautiful and clean, it is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life in the country with plenty of room for your family and even your pet. I was amazed at the location it was literally 30 minutes away from all the places we were visiting for my daughter’s wedding. Thank you Brianna for sharing your home with us.

A great getaway
There was 4 of us. We are longtime best friends from childhood. We took a long weekend girls trip. We were so thrilled with the house and the area. The host was very friendly and helpful. The house is in the country and is very nicely decorated and comfortable. It was very peaceful and we definitely enjoyed the porch and fire pit at night. The nearby Springs are beautiful. It was the perfect getaway. Thank you for sharing your lovely place with us.

Peaceful Florida Spring getaway…
Thank you so much for allowing us to stay and enjoy your vacation spring getaway. The rental absolutely exceeded our expectations! I would have to say this place is the most well stocked home away from home place, I have ever been. Unfortunately, the river had risen into Little River and Royal Springs, so they were not clear. Ichetucknee Springs tubing and the Blue hole swimming was peaceful, breathing taking, and so fun for our family! Fanning springs was my favorite day trip. Make sure to take Google’s and snorkel stuff. We will be back for sure.

Amazing time
This property was everything I expected and more. I so loved our stay here. Much needed family vacation. We were close to a gas station and wonderful Dollar store ( mini grocery store) 1 1/2 miles. Comfortable beds , coffee pot, coffee, adequate supplies to cook and laundry. Bath soaps and shampoo. Just bring your clothes , toothbrush and toothpaste. Oh and grocery stores about 20 minutes away. I loved how the host shared a notebook with all her favorite springs, restaurants and more. I would highly recommend this stay. Would definitely go back. Thanks for sharing your home!!!!
