Honey Dew Point Lake House
Fantastic place, clean and cozy. My daughter loved the dock and that there was a fishing pole for her to fish with.

Otter Spring on the Rainbow River
Great place to stay. We had lots of fun using the kayaks and paddle boards. The view of the river is awesome and relaxing while watching all the people tubing, kayaking, and boating up and down. The fire pit was great to make a fire at night. The kitchen had everything we needed and the entire home was very clean. The loft area stayed a little warm so my kids did not want to sleep up there. We had clean music playing on the dock, which people on the river seemed to enjoy too, but the neighbor gave us a dirty look and gesture - no issues otherwise. Overall a great place to spend a few days.

5 O'clock Somewhere
Perfect stay! Steve and Tess were wonderful!!! They took me out on a boat for a river tour!! (it doesn't get better than that). The neighborhood was exceptionally peaceful and scenic. I had great morning walks with the dog. It was easy to meet the neighbors, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. It was just an unbelievably relaxing and perfect stay that ended far too soon! I plan to be back for sure!!

Cozy Canal home/ access to Lake Henderson/Kayaks
Mig and Jimmy’s place was perfect for our extended stay in Inverness. It was spotlessly clean with a very well-stocked kitchen in a great location, right on the canal. The yard is large and private, and the home is conveniently located to downtown. restaurants and events. The house is decorated very nicely, and the beds were really comfortable. I would highly recommend this home.

Palm Waters Riverhouse
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Palm Waters River House! We had 7 kids and 3 adults for our stay. Our kids ranged from 11 to 2 months. The screened in porches made for a great place for the toddlers while the big kids enjoyed the kayaks and rope swing. It was the perfect getaway for our families!

Serenity Cove - Waterfront
This was one of the best stays we’ve had in Dunnellon thus far. Big backyard and a short, but fun boat ride to get to rainbow Springs. We kept our 17 foot Key West docked behind the house for the weekend without problem. It is shallow when you’re approaching the dock but once you’re out in the main channel, it’s no problem. George was extremely responsive with any questions I had. There’s a local boat ramp down the street that is literally a 10 minute walk from the house so you have the ability to launch your boat, dock it, and then walk back to pick up truck and trailer to park it back at the house for the weekend. (Local Boat ramp parking is tight.)

Withlacoochee Waterfront Dock Home Lake Rousseau
This house is beautiful, so tastefully decorated, every possible need or want from an AirBnb is provided. It has a fully stocked kitchen that any cook would dream of. The beds are comfortable, linens are lovely and the bedroom fans are exceptional. The backyard is perfect for cooking out, relaxing and plenty of space for pets. The area around the house is quiet, peaceful and makes you feel as though you are in a magical, mysterious place. I kept hoping to catch a glimpse of an alligator, but I was satisfied to see beautiful birds flying and fish jumping while I drank my morning coffee. I really wish I'd been able to stay longer, as it was the perfect respite after our adventures in Crystal River. Thank you!

Waterfront - Kayak to Springs with manatees !
Location was very cool, kayak to spring easily, kayaking with manatees around the corner! New house in quiet location was very enjoyable. Looking forward to another visit.

Guest House downstairs Apartment on stunning farm
This is my second time staying at Cassie's place, it is assuredly the greatest gem in Marion County. A unique, and unforgettable place, a slice of Old Florida that is disappearing fast. Calm, peaceful, relaxing, gorgeous, and Cassie's vision for this place is inspired.

Professor Rousseau's Tiki Hideaway
Worth 1000 stars. Can I just say it’s refreshing to find an Airbnb host in this area? Who isn’t price gouging. Collins properties are super reasonably priced. They’re in a beautiful area, you have access to everything, it’s super private, the area is maintained well, so your pets and family will not be covered in ticks and eaten up by mosquitoes, And it’s priced wonderfully. I can’t say enough good things. Plus this host is very easy to work with and very proactive and responsive. The thing I will mention that apparently puts people off is the well water is kind of brown Ish when you take a shower or a bath, also in the sink, but it’s well water and it’s perfectly fine. I had no problems at all, and neither did my dogs. So please chill out on the well water and enjoy this beautiful gem of an Airbnb and this wonderful house. We are so grateful and I will definitely be returning.

Professor Rousseau's Sea Turtle Sanctuary
The place is very nice, quiet, clean place to stay. With a nice location, would stay here again.

Professor Rousseau's Pirates Lair
This place is truly a hidden gem. I will be staying here anytime I am in the area! Colin was excellent to work with, quick to respond and made the entire process effortless. Colin and his staff were extremely accommodating and no further than a call or message away the entire time. My weekend getaway was everything I hoped for and more thanks to Colin, the facility and the property. The home was cozy, well decorated, surprisingly even better than the pictures and fully stocked with anything we needed from toilet paper and trash bags to extra blankets and towels. The property was beautiful and very clean. The trees with Spanish moss set such a peaceful tone along with the fishing area at the water front that was just outside of our back door. The wildlife was fun to watch, various birds, squirrels and some pretty big bass. The place was so perfect we found no need to go out to eat and just cooked there. It felt like a private island full of character and natures beauty. 10 out of 10!

Waterfront Apartment
Our second time here at Brooke’s home. We have found our go-to place to get away from the hustle and bustle of living in Land O Lakes with our daughter and grandchildren. It’s quiet and it has everything you need. The view of the lake is spectacular. I love staying here and will be back soon.

Waterfront home on a peaceful cove - Lake Rousseau
Cheryl was very nice, responsive, and her thorough instructions were very helpful. Most important to me, the house was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked with cooking utencils, and the bedding was very nice. We all had a lovely time fishing on the dock, kayking, and boating down the river. We explored Homosassa Springs, Rainbow Springs and several other Florida attractions. The whole family had a lot of fun!

Cozy Vibes Lake Cottage
Highly recommend the apartment, nice backyard directly at the water. Beautifully renovated bath- and bedrooms. Well-equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook your own meals. Hosts were reachable and very supportive. Perfect for a weekend-escape into the green!

Lake Weir Retreat w/Dock The Villages/Ocala
We had such a wonderful time. The lake was gorgeous with all the birds, and perfect to sit relax and watch the sunset.

Tranquil Waterfront Cottage on Lake Rousseau, 3 bedrooms
This was perfect for my best friends and I to have an awesome weekend reunion. I moved out of the area over a year ago and it was a perfect spot to spend time with those I love and miss the most. We had gone to the dam (recreation area less than a mile away) when we were kids and it was really neat to visit it again more than 20 years later. The beautiful view from the backyard was incredible and the sunsets looked more like paintings than pictures. Our gracious hosts were accommodating for my dogs, which was a necessity. The grill was in great shape, the beds were comfortable, and there’s a big tub in the master bathroom that the youngest child was ecstatic for. The tv met everyone’s needs and the WiFi was decent. If it’s available for our next reunion, then it will become a tradition. Thank you for lending us your home for this unforgettable weekend of gingerbread houses, fishing, Christmas movies, good music, and cooking great food with friends and family!

Peaceful Lakeside Cottage for Tennis Enthusiasts!
This was a home run. My wife and I needed to get away from the stress of everyday life, suburbia and just see a different landscape. This checked ALL of the boxes and then some. When we talk retirement, this is what we want.

The Lakeside River House
Very peaceful. Loved sitting out on the dock listening to and watching all of the birds, turtles, frogs.

Downtown Inverness Lake Cottage
Enjoyed the stay, the wildlife, and seeing the sandhill cranes every morning and evening was a plus.

(Waterfront) Charming Lakefront Cottage
Our 2nd one month stay at this lovely cottage. It's an excellent location on a channel to access Lake Henderson. Perfect for bass fishing. The home is clean and comfortable. It's spacious and was perfect for 2 couples. The kitchen is organized and well stocked . We enjoyed the patio, particularly the newly installed gazebo which provided shade during sunny days. The view from the patio is relaxing and perfect for sunrises. Home is located in a very quiet neighborhood. It's an easy 3 mile ride down 44 sidewalk to get to the Withlachoochee Bike Trail. Spent many hours fishing. Every Monday we'd make the the 45 minute drive to the Webster Flea Market (excellent stop for produce) then stop for lunch at Big Bass Grill on Lake Panasoffkee. Easy drive to Winn Dixie. Would absoulutely stay again,
