An amazing property and beautiful view. A perfect place to celebrate Christmas. Everything was as described (or better). Thanks to the owners for sharing their story and allowing us to be a part of the journey.

The host was very accommodating and put the extra effort in down to the little details. We were in town for a wedding, and this home was the perfect location. The outdoor space and lake view were enchanting. The house was decorated for the holidays, which made it feel warm and inviting. Would definitely recommend.

Another amazing stay here! This makes our 3rd visit and definitely not the last! The house is decorated so beautifully and is just so cozy. My husband loved the bass fishing in the lake. Thank you for opening up your paradise to us and our fur babies. Until next time!

The property fully met our expectations and placed us in an area of Florida that we had never experienced. Lake County has about 1100 lakes some of which are huge. The LC Water Authority has a dozen areas or more that are preserves for water quality and flora and fauna protection. Many trails are available to hike and birding was good in a couple of the preserves. We even saw a bear track, but not the bear that made it. The hosts were great and we found all the people we met to be friendly. I imagine this will become a repeat trip in the not to distant future.

It is a truly beautiful lake house with plenty of room. Not far from the city and all it's amenities. I lovingly recommend a visit to this piece of the quiet country living on the lake.

We had a very nice stay at the cottage. It was calm, relaxing and the hosts were accessible, communicative, and kind. We had a little bad luck with the weather but the hosts were very generous, helping to assure we enjoyed our time and felt safe. And our pooches loved it! We felt like we were in a tree house, it was splendid.

Absolutely beautiful home and setting. Peaceful and secluded. The lake at sunrise and the horses and cows on the property were icing on the cake. We were sorry to only be able to stay 2 nights for this trip. We will be back for a longer stay!

This was our second time at the lake house and we just love it. We went fishing, kayaking and played games together. The view of the lake is just beautiful and such a nice place to getaway and relax. Again, we will be back!

Redbird Cottage and farm is absolutely beautiful! My family had a wonderful time and definitely enjoyed the views of the lake. We also had a great time exploring the springs and parks around the area. We will be back!

Beautiful property, you honestly can not help but relax when you stay at Red Bird Cottage. There are porches surrounding the house with comfortable seating to watch the wildlife and view the lake. Kayaks waiting on the dock for lake exploring. Fire pit with wood ready to go and a gas grill. Plan on visits from Sandhill cranes and Osceola turkeys. The house is clean and truly charming. The hosts are very accommodating and seem to be sincere in their desire for you to enjoy your stay.
The only downside is that you walk through the master bedroom to get to the second bedroom and the bathroom is in the master bedroom.
I hope to bring my husband back for a couple weekend.

Our youngest daughter was getting married at Moss Estates nearby. This space from the time we walked in was absolutely perfect. Great location, absolutely perfect David was responsive with any questions we had. My wife loved it and she is sometimes hard to please. This was the best place we have ever stayed at. Felt like home We will be going back soon to explore the area Eustis was great also Downtown has lots of spaces to view. We absolutely loved the entire stay. Thank you David.

Wonderful stay and the property was in perfect condition. Having the pets along, let the experience be complete Wi-Fi on the property is stellar but GPS is a little suspect coming in.
Lock in the address before you get out there. You will definitely enjoy it.

We came to the Redbird cottage for my husband’s birthday weekend. This is our favorite rental so far. The house was so clean with everything we needed for our stay. Sitting on the deck or dock in the morning or evening was a perfect way to spend our time. The owner handled a small problem quickly as soon as we spoke to him. Would love to return for another visit!

Property views were absolutely amazing and peaceful! I wish we had more time to enjoy during our 3 night stay. Property is nestled between equestrian farms right on a lake. The home is cozy and only critique would be the two bedrooms are connected by a slat type door so you don’t have a lot of privacy. The bathroom is in the master so the guest room must come through master to use. Coffee bar was a wonderful touch!! Deck area is expansive and looks right on the lake. Great fishing dock! Our teens loved it!

Based on the great reviews, property details, and location, we decided to book this cottage for a short getaway to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We stayed two days but it felt like more because of how relaxed and rejuvenated we were. The inside of the cottage was very clean, tastefully decorated, inviting, and well-stocked. The amazing lake view welcomed us every time we walked through the front door and the natural beauty that surrounds this cottage is breathtaking. The owners are very thoughtful and accommodating. We highly recommend this place!

The pictures do not do this beautiful property justice! What an inviting, comfortable cabin you have created to share! Much of the stay was spent outside enjoying the peace and beauty of the lake. The screen room was a terrific spot to enjoy the sounds of the woods and the rain on Sunday morning. I look forward to coming back for a truly relaxing and nourishing visit! Many thanks for sharing your slice of Heaven on Earth!
