Disappointed,

We ended up leaving and never stayed. The bright, white cleam phoyos were very, very, deceptive. Dirty sink, dishes and rugs. Had to go through bathroom to get to main area from back bedroom. Recommend spray hose, rake yard, amd clean furniyure in and out to be able to sit down

Home away from home!

Each time we stay here we don't want to go home. So Peaceful, relaxing, clean, stocked with pretty much everything you'll need. Staying there has made us want to buy the place... but it's not for sale. Just our wishful thinking 😊 Virginia is the absolute sweetest and accommodating person we have ever dealt with for a vacation rental. We already have our next trip to this lovely place booked!!

It was a great place to stay when we came up to watch the game! It has everything you need in case you might’ve forgotten anything, there are perfect little restaurants close by and even more a few miles down the road. It was perfect distance to Gators stadium.

Great family stay in Florida!

My husband and three kids (ages 7-12) stayed here with our dog while visiting family. It was a great experience; the cottage is cute and comfortable, with some separate seating areas and thoughtful touches like a bottle of wine and treats for the pup. There are some games for the kids, both board games and outside games. The host was very accommodating and easy to work with, and she was very responsive to messages. We highly recommend this rental and would definitely stay here again!

Spring vacation

Virginia’s place was very comfortable and very close to many of the springs. It was very easy to communicate with her. She was very nice to leave us s’more kits for the children, wood for the fire pit, and all kinds of coffee to start the day. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Cozy Cottage

The property owner maintained communication with us and wanted to be sure we arrived safely. We were greeted by a beautiful doe in the backyard upon our arrival. Inside the cottage we found the property owner had left us what we'd need to make s'mores on the kitchen counter...a thoughtful gesture. The house was comfortable and gave us each plenty of space to rest. Unfortunately, we had to leave earlier than scheduled because Tropical Storm Elsa was bordering hurricane strength and was heading our way. As we were pulling out to leave, the doe and her baby made their appearance in the backyard to see us off. A peaceful place to stay. We enjoyed it very much and hope to return next year. Thank you, Ms. Virginia!

Fanning springs family vacation

Check in was a breeze, easy communication. I was a little concerned about the single bathroom situation, since there’s 7 of us, but, it turned out to be a very minor inconvenience. The property is beautiful and quiet. We enjoyed evenings out by the fire pit making s’mores. The amenities were great. The kitchen was well stocked, even the pots and pans were nice, not cheap like some other places we’ve stayed. There were plenty of towels, which was nice. The place has plenty of seating, never felt cramped or crowded. Beds were a good size and comfy. Location has good access to local springs. Fanning springs itself is less than 5 minutes away. Would definitely stay again.
