My stay at River Watcher was wonderful. I entered the house and was welcomed with fresh cookies from the host. The home was clean and fully stocked with everything from fresh linens to kitchen utensils. There was a large screened in porch facing the river that made it easy to enjoy the property. The private boat ramp on site was very convenient and there were plenty of areas to park vehicles with or without boat trailers. I had my own private dock to enjoy the river and there were numerous kayaks available to the renters. The host was only a phone call away and was quick to respond to any questions I had. The location is fairly remote which adds to its appeal but it's only a 15 minute drive to the town of Bell where you're able to find anything you might need. This was a wonderful home on a beautiful piece of property making it the perfect place to enjoy the Suwannee River.
John and Mary were awesome hosts! They were able to help us with anything we needed. The house was perfect and comfortable. We do utilize Rentals a lot and this was one of our best yet! We will be back. The screened in porch was such a blessing at night when we just wanted to sit out in the night air and talk. The activities around the house were great for the kids. We will be making this a yearly rental for our family summer trip!
This property is just as amazing as the photos and listing look. My entire family (parents, sister and teen kids) truly enjoyed it. Everything about the stay was perfect. Don't think twice about booking this location!
There are three beautiful homes next to each other by the Suwannee River great for a group event or rent just one of the homes. Each home has three bedroom and three bath. Very clean and is furnished with everything one needs for a short or long stay. I enjoyed waking up and having coffee on the screened in porch every morning listening to the birds and watch the river water flow by. Very peaceful. The owners they are wonderful host!!!
Big property with lots of outdoor activity, right on the Suwanee River. Peaceful rural setting with star-filled nights.
Perfect family getaway!
I was most pleased with the cleanliness of the property! We will be back!
