Located on a working cattle ranch aprox. 1.9 miles (approx 10 mins) off a paved country road. Beautiful pristine landscape perfect for nature lovers, writers, artists, fisherman, familys, retreats, reunions, star gazers, bird watchers, camping, and even romantic vacations. Get all the benefits of ecotourism and still enjoy a very comfortable stay.
Our lodge has natural and country decor throughout and Cedarwood/cypress dress most of the walls. Inside dining table will seat 8 easily. Kitchen island sits 4. Outside there's a screened in porch with table to sit 6, spacious dock(4 stairs to climb) overlooking haw creek, campfire pit w/swing, and small boat ramp. We are 2 miles off the hard top and completely in the middle of the woods where you can experience nature at it's best. If you listen at night you can usually hear owls talking. Fully stocked kitchen: cooking utensils, pots/pans, usual condiments, and Culligan drinking water. There's also a couple family games and a house set of croquet.
Guest access
For an extra fee and depending on the number of people, we can provide guided fishing trip, guided hunting trip, boat ride, or even buggy ride to tour our property. You must check with us for availability and schedule this ahead of time if you're interested.
Interaction with guests
We'll tell you how to get there and give you the privacy of self checkin, but you may see us working the ranch along the road in. We don't live there and we'll give you privacy, but we're only a phone call away if you need us.
Other things to note
Extra $175 fee to bring a pet per animal and we must know ahead of time to charge accordingly. Located on a natural Florida creek and on our ranch. There are Alligators, bugs, and snakes around. We've never had any problems with them, but they are there, and there's a possibility of seeing them. If you're bringing a pet, please keep an eye on them and we advise to not let them go near the water nor should anyone swim in the water. There are cows on the property. No need to be afraid, they won't bother you. :)

We were wanting a place to rest and relax and we definitely found those qualities here. We enjoyed fishing off of the dock and relaxing on the swing. Brittany was very accommodating and helpful with anything that we needed. Thank you for sharing this special place with us. We would love to return again soon.
Great place for a rustic ( appears to be a working hunt camp) getaway. If using as homebase, be aware road in is not bad, but dusty. I was puling a boat and found out quick to put on cover. Other than that, outside is roomy, pics do not do creek (with small ramp) justice and no support issues. Great Stay.
This was the second time I stayed at the lodge. While I had a good stay there was some deterioration in the facilities and cleanliness. Particularly the silverware is dirty and needs replacement and the water is not potable requiring bottled water for cooking and drinking.
The property was excellent for their yearly trip The host was very helpfully and nice. Just a wonderful place to relax off the beaten path and enjoy their friendship. Definitely will go here again
Great people quiet place
We absolutely loved the property. It was too chilly to get in the canoes but we plan on returning soon. Brittany was great! This is very secluded and private. Next trip we plan on hog hunting- which will be my first time. My fiancé and his family hunt annually on a boys trip! Highly recommend this place.
Brittney is a fantastic host who is quick to respond to my multitude of questions from the very beginning when the family was planning our vacation to our checkout day. If you are looking for seclusion but also want beach and theme park time, then this is the place for you. 30 minutes to Flagler Beach and 2 hours to Disney World. Fishing off the private dock was an every day occurrence, as was quality family time. Thanks Brittney for opening your lodge to the public to allow us the opportunity to rent from you. Certainly hoping to do it again!!
I hardly ever review anything but have been thinking about writing this review since the day we arrived! it’s very rare that you read all these positive reviews and then the place or product lives up to the hype. In this case, the reviews were dead on! I took a five night vacation with my son to get away and reconnect, I could not think of one thing that I would change. I will say the pictures on the site do not do the place justice. It is possibly one of the most quiet and relaxing vacations I’ve ever had. The house is fantastic, kitchen has all you need. There are TV’s in all but one of the five bedrooms, and they get plenty of channels. There is a nice size TV in the living room and a washer dryer, internet, everything! The beds are comfortable, plenty of towels…just a great place! But the star of the show is the property. It is set back on the dirt road (that’s in great shape) and yes…we were greeted by a few cows on the way! When you get to the house it’s serenity. The deck over the river is an amazing place to start your day and end it. You can hear nature around you, it’s so peaceful that on the 3rd day when a plane flew over we were both asking, what was that! I am really amazed at how peaceful it was, it really is a rare find! The final touch is the owners themselves. We got to meet my them quickly and the one or two times we had a question they got right back to us. Brittany is amazing! They really just want you to enjoy your stay and leave you to yourselves. Did I mention that it’s so peaceful?!
Picked this location for a family vacation. It was perfect. We had a great host that gave us her cell number and said to call her if we needed anything. The Double C Ranch is a unique, quite, remote setting. Nice dock by Haw Creek, we saw an air boat one morning and kayakers another morning. We also made a drive to two different beaches. Navigating the long (almost 2 miles) private drive around the cows was a fun added attraction for the grand kids!!
When my son and I entered the gate, we were pleasantly greeted by several cows on the road. It was really cool and exciting! Then as we approached the house, I was amazed at how much bigger the property looked in person. My first impression when I walked in the door was how clean everything smelled. Not only did the home smell clean, it was truly clean. Even the cutting boards, stored in a low, open cabinet, were free of all dust! We were unable to load our kayaks for the trip and really bummed about it, but Brittany saved us from boredom and allowed us to use the kayaks that were there. Haw Creek provided an easy paddle. The current was just enough for a gentle push in one way, but not enough to make a struggle back. We loved everything about the property and will most definitely return. Thank you, Brittany, for everything!
