Other things to note
- Quiet enjoyment. I ask guests to please be mindful of noise levels. The neighbors have been understanding about the vacation house, and I intend to keep it that way, so each guest is responsible for quiet hours and not disturbing the neighbors. Quiet hours are from 9pm - 8am on weekdays and from 10pm - 9 am on weekends.
-Because the house is on the waterfront and I provide recreational equipment to use, I require that all guests please sign a waiver, release, and assumption of risk form prior to arrival. This requirement includes anyone who you invite on to the property during your stay as well. The form will be sent via DocuSign. Thank you for your understanding!
-Fireworks of any kind are not permitted on the property.
This vacation house is a nature lover’s dream, peaceful, and made for a great couples getaway weekend. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all spotlessly clean. Probably one of the cleanest vacation homes we have ever stayed in with fresh towels, linens, rugs, etc. We saw humming birds, owls, hawks, otters, butterflies and much more from the dock and the spacious screened porch with the Withlacoochee river as our backdrop. I can't even really describe the serenity of the location in words. The full stoked kitchen had everything we needed to cook with a campfire area in the backyard to make s’mores for dessert. The on-site kayaks were nice and easy to launch from the backyard. If you’re looking for a nice place to stay in the Brooksville area, you found a hidden gem at this river house. Highly recommend!
Peaceful location! We got to enjoy a storm rolling in over the cypress trees as well! I appreciated the way the renovators of the spot had turned an mobile into such a cute spot. The thrifty touches in each room were classic and cozy. Plenty of pillows and blankets. The ONLY qualms we had we all due to the cleaning. I had an allergic reaction (face swelled) to the heavily scented bed sheets from whatever detergent/fabric sheets were used. I would highly recommend using free and clear detergents and dryer sheets. Sensitivity to fragrance is not uncommon and can really damper a visit. Free and clear does not cost more, so would be an easy improvement! Although I was comfortable, that made the resting part less enjoyable. Additionally, the bathrooms were not cleaned thoroughly (toothpaste in mirrors and hair on toilet/sink/tub) and there was a used cup on the porch. I am a local, so I have recommendations for cleaning crews if needed! I would recommend the spot if the cleaning aspects were improved! The location and home itself were enjoyable.
We had a wonderful time staying at the River House. We wanted a few days to relax and that's exactly what we did! The river was peaceful and the atmosphere of the house was amazing. Our family enjoyed our visit and would love to go back again!
