    Everything was as described/pictured except the lock code provided for check in was incorrect but maid was just leaving when we arrived to check in at 4p and my hubby chased her down road to get the right code. Haha All well and owner apologized. Property has been updated, pics do not reveal the LR is now a BR and the right side of deck is now enclosed as the new LR. I like the deck smaller and cozier, new furniture too. We spent alot of time on deck. Did not use the enclosed downstairs at all except for fridge for the addl cold drinks. We didnt have to lug up stairs. :-)Firepit space was absolutely awesome! We used it alot as it was chilly on our visit. Would be great if there was a shovel and receptacle to dispose of ash to keep pit cleared. Suggestion?Also, as an FYI the 2nd hall bath shower handle is really tough to turn.kitchen had everything except a wine opener, we bought one at dollar store as owner suggested and left it for next guests, not a big deal to us.We boated one day due to weather did hike 2x through the woods and saw LOTS AND LOTS of deer! Played corn hole too! Doggie loved the yard space.Really great place, will rent again! Thank you!

    The location is incredible.The suwannee river here is paradise. Waking up & seeing deer grazing in the yard starts the day right.Listening to owls hooting doesn't get better.The house is fully stocked with all needs. Having the downstairs screened is a plus along with the extra bathroom. We spent alot of time on the upstairs deck watching sturgeon jumping. Will be back!!!!!! Thank you.

    Perfect house for a stay on the river. Conveniently located to nearby public boat ramp the doc was perfect for our boat. We had plenty of space and beds. Air conditioning worked great and the porch was perfect for coffee and evening hangouts.

    I was very lucky. The other part of my family could not show up because of my granddaughter’s national volleyball championship, but if they had been there, would’ve not been enough room for all of us the pictures where it shows how many bedrooms and what’s in them wasn’t quite as accurate And then it shows another room which we took is being downstairs because it shows your refrigerator in a door that there’s two king-size beds in that room wow that wasn’t true. The space in the little living room had a huge coffee table in the middle. It was really heavy and you would have to shove that towards the table for eating at to be able to pull open the couch and I don’t know if there wasn’t would’ve been enough room to even do that so my son had to sleep just on the couch itself. The picture window is gorgeous to look out on the river, but when the sun is coming down, you can’t sit on the other couch it just blind you cause there is no shade to pull down for it not to come through. It was a beautiful place, but just not for our size family. It was just too cramped and didn’t have the extra beds that it said it did.

    If I could give this place a higher rating, I would. This place comes with absolutely everything you need and more. Nicely decorated and very well stocked. It has everything that you could need from linens, cookware, utensils, grill, games, ample seating, cleaning needs, and a beautiful screened in downstairs patio with tons of seating. It also has a beautiful dock that is very easy to get to. Teresa the host is amazing. If you have any questions, she gets right back with you right away. My family and I plan on going back several times. We LOVE this place.

    We spent two weeks at this delightful property and enjoyed every minute of it. The scenery is incredible--we sat outside on the deck or porch every day and watched the river flow by. Just beautiful! The house is charming and had everything we needed. The host was very responsive and helpful. The area is quiet and peaceful, a great place to relax and unwind. We enjoyed our stay so much that we are planning to return next year to this wonderful property!

    My wife's parents live close by in McAlpin and we need a place for ourselves and our 2 grown girls and one boy-friend. We really loved the place. It was very nice and clean. We didn't get to use the canoe or the paddle boat, but we did make a fire two of the nights in the fire pit and had smores! The place is very peaceful and quiet. We did take my in-laws over to the place and they loved it as well. The host was awesome and we had no problems communicating with her. We would definitely stay there again.

    We had the most relaxing time at Floats My Boat on the Suwannee River! From the moment we arrived, we were in awe of the peaceful setting and stunning natural surroundings. The house itself is well kept, and very clean, and nicely equippedThe highlight of our stay was definitely the river. We spent a few hours kayaking and the views from the porch were calming. It is relaxing to sit by the water, listen to the sounds of nature, and watch the river flow by. The area is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and those looking to unwind in a serene environment.Not only was the house and grounds in very good shape considering the hurricane damage last fall to the area, the location is also perfect. It’s just far enough away to feel secluded and private, yet close enough to local attractions and shops if you need anything. The communication with the host Teresa was fantastic too—she was very welcoming and quick to respond to any questions we had.Looking forward to returning in the fall!

    Love the location! Amazing house to hangout at the river….next time we would probably stay during the winter to utilize the fire pit. The only negative thing for us were the huge ants in the house. There were big dead ants in random places and also alive, some crawling on the toilet. Other than that we loved it!
