Holiday rentals with a kayak in Gilchrist County

I am truly grateful to the hosts CARMINE and DANIKA. Thank you. The house was the best. We will definitely return. It had everything, it was very well equipped, very spacious. We had a great time with my family. I definitely recommend it. Your hosts were very kind, they were always attentive..!!! 10 out of 10. Many blessings, thank you for allowing us to be in your home. Thank you.

What a fabulous Airbnb. House was amazing! Clean, comfortable and every amenity that you could need was there. One of the best Airbnb’s that I have stayed at. The property was so beautiful and so much to see and do. Do not be scared to book this gem! Worth every penny.

The Otter House is absolutely beautiful and immaculately clean and organized. The view of the Suwanee River is breathtaking and can be seen beautifully from the house. We loved the fact that there is a wonderful restaurant called Treasure Camp close by, and even in within walking distance. The whole area is pristine and the most peaceful area that I have ever experienced. There is so much to do and it is close to several springs and to Cedar Key, and all of the people in the area are pleasant and kind. It is simply wonderful out there and I hope to be able to go often! Oh, and the beds are the most comfortable this side of heaven!!!

Loved staying at the river house! Michael was great- super responsive, very easy directions to find the place. We did a “screen free” long weekend with our 2 kiddos and this place was perfect. Very clean! Had everything we needed - TONS of towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner. Kitchen had great stock of cooking supplies, pots, bowls, utensils and spices. Ample laundry detergent and dishwashing liquid. Kids loved playing on the basketball hoop, using their scooters on the driveway and grilling hotdogs at the fire pit. Kayaks were great- our kids are little so we didn’t get far but they had everything you need- various paddles, life vests and easy set up to get the kayaks down to the dock. Boat slip for kayak was AWESOME!!! Would absolutely stay here again - lots of great memories made playing board games at the kitchen table, cooking delicious meals in the kitchen and enjoying the backyard and river. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a peaceful and private retreat.

Michael and his sweet dogs were amazing hosts!! Absolutely peaceful and beautiful country home with a lovely well kept garden and large shaded front porch to enjoy your coffee on in the mornings. Michael made checking in late night a breeze and had the lights on for us when we arrived. It is like a hug from back home at “mamas” as soon as you walk in. He has provided everything you could need. There are 3 full sized bedrooms with comfy beds and a big kitchen to cook for your family. We enjoyed talking with Michael and playing with the dogs, he even gave us some local made sausages to grill with our burgers that were fantastic. We can’t wait to come back for a visit. Located near gorgeous springs as well. Book this home, you won’t want to leave. Thank you Michael, see you again soon.

Another way of giving directions for finding the home for the first time: When you turn left as soon as you come through the gate, keep going on that road until you see a street sign that says Riverside Circle. Make a left and then it’s the first house on your right. I've stayed in a good number of Airbnb's & this one is the best one I've been to. The house is simply beautiful & the decorations are tasteful. The privacy is divine. The grounds large. Good outdoor chairs, including for a couple of kids. Shade on the dock in the afternoon. Lake can be a brown tea like color (from tannins) & murky. Stairs might make your calves scream. We lowered our bags down with a rope. Great to have outdoor sink on balcony. Great to have screened in eating spot. Beds & furniture better than average rental. Host is a super host for a reason.

What a fantastic weekend! The property was beautiful. The kids loved the swing, yard, and swimming in the river at the beach. So much to explore! The house was clean and spacious and the hosts were great helping provide information and answering questions. Would highly recommend. Hoping to come back again soon!

Our stay at Hefziba’s listing was a family favorite and one of the best vacations we have taken together in a long time. We are an outdoorsy Florida family and this home on the ichetucknee was a dream come true for us. We have spend past family vacation visiting different springs throughout Florida and we loved this location so much, that we have all voted to visit Hefziba’s place again in the near future. The home was stacked with games and activities for my children- ranging from college age to elementary school age. We brought our own floats and paddle boards, but the Airbnb provided paddle boards and kayaks also.The community beach was a wonderful way to start and end each day outside, while fitting and long float or paddle board in each day. We have been home for one day and are already missing this place on the springs. The beds were comfortable, and the entire Airbnb was well loved, but extremely clean. Thank you for an incredible time 💗

My friend and I stayed a couple nights at the Glass House so we could enjoy the nearby Rainbow Springs and Silver Springs. We felt right at home on the property and the home is cozy with a peaceful view. We sat each morning and evening on the back porch. Anabel is welcoming and responsive. Highly recommend for a nature getaway.

We enjoyed the home! It was the perfect place to enjoy some springs and relax for a few days. The water wasn’t working when we checked in but they quickly got someone on it and a part was changed and water restored within a couple hours.

The place was peaceful, lots of birds..lots of space..huge back yard, plenty of furniture! Comfortable for our fam of 8! Half a kike from Fanning Springs! Kitchen is fully equipped and had extra supplies. Kids a a great time outdoors. Had the option to check out later! ty!!

We loved staying at the house and the dock was great. We also appreciated the extras that were available including the use of the kayaks, paddleboard and tubes.

The house and property was beautiful. There was plenty of space for all of us (7 adults and 2 kids). There were lots of kayaks and tubes at our disposal for the river. I would definitely stay here again!

This was our second stay and we love everything about this spot! It’s a beautiful piece of property with everything you need to sit back and enjoy a weekend away. The host is always incredibly helpful and kind whenever we have had to communicate with them with questions or recommendations. If you’re looking for a place to escape too then you will not be disappointed with this spot! We will certainly be back again as soon as we can!

Jack’s place was the perfect place to stay while I was visiting friends in the area. It was clean and well organized. He was very responsive host and checked in to make sure I had everything I needed during my stay.

had an amazing cozy time ☺️

The place was clean, well-equipped, and beautiful. We were looking for a relaxing environment, and this place is. The kayaks available on the property are a plus for enjoying the river. Recommended

This was an amazing vacation with so many memories made. Before the vacation even started Elizabeth was very friendly and responded quickly to any questions we had. Once we arrived we knew we booked the right place. The property was so beautiful and the cabin was super clean and cozy. The cabin had everything needed to feel right at home. We were able to visit near by springs, kayak from the boat ramp with the kayaks provided and play board games from the comfort of the porch. We really appreciated Elizabeth’s attention to detail on making her place a wonderful place to stay. We can’t wait to come back again. 🙂
