Great Getaway!

This property has a casual elegance that invites use - open plan with large dining area, oversized couch & big screen tv, well equipped kitchen, and comfortable beds & linens. We made good use of the outdoor areas, including the charcoal grill and wood burning fire pit. High Springs is just minutes away and offered a variety of restaurants for meals out. The entire property is large, well maintained, and secured by a fence with front gate. This gave us an added peace of mind regarding the safety of our dogs and allowed us to give them a little more 'freedom" than they normally would have when we travel. Natasha is a great host & quick to respond. A great time had by all, in a beautiful part of North Florida. Looking forward to our next stay at The Rustic River Retreat!
