    My partner and I just wanted a quiet weekend away where we could just enjoy some relaxing and fishing, I have stayed at about five plus rentals a year and this by far was the cleanest and well thought out stay of any. We had such a wonderful time caught some fish watched the birds and wildlife.

    Far enough away from the city to be peaceful, but still close to Tallahassee. The place was lovely, homey and clean, and the owners are wonderful!

    Our host Dianne was a delight to work with. She made sure we had everything we needed and some. The house could not have been more perfect. Her attention to detail to make your stay easy and comfortable was absolutely 10/10. My family cannot wait to return to this North Florida oasis.
