Cozy Log Cabin Retreat on the Santa Fe River – Nature, Kayaking & Relaxation!

10/10 Excellent
"The property was amazing, and the cabin was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. I wish more people could see this slice of what Florida really offers. We will return, for sure. This was a gift for our grandchildren, and they absolutely loved it all, especially the fishing and kayaking. The location was super convenient for taking them on the Ichetucknee River tube run--a must-do while that close. We appreciated having wood for the fire and the kids made s'mores on our last night. It is remote, so we cooked all our meals while we were there, but found what we needed to fix all our meals in the well-stocked kitchen. As a coffee drinker, I brought my own Keurig cups but I thought it was super nice to have a great assortment for guests. There are so many "little" things that make this a great location."
