Private Island Waterfront Oasis Kayaks + Paddleboards + Canoe + NEW Pool Table

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (188)
"Had so much fun with family at this beautiful home! You truly cannot beat the location, the river is so peaceful and absolutely stunning! There were plenty of towels which was nice because so many rentals do not have those. My only issue was there was not salt, pepper or foil which I know something that is guaranteed but it is nice when it’s already there so you have what you need in the kitchen. With all that being said, I would definitely book again! The host was also so accommodating and very...

Beautiful secluded setting on the Rainbow River surrounded by state forest

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (14)
"This was the perfect get away for us. We loved the beautiful house with all the floor to ceiling windows- so you could always enjoy the views. The river was so beautiful, we kayaked and paddle boarded, and my husband swam to the spring. The water temperature cooled the air, so sitting on the deck every night was so relaxing. We will definitely be back."

River Retreats/Anglers Paradise

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (28)
"We were very happy with our stay! Property was exactly as described; so peaceful and beautiful out back! We stayed 3 nights and found everything we wanted to do was extremely close by, very convenient. We didn’t utilize all the amenities offered, but the host, Chaz, thought of everything. Board games, DVDs, fishing poles, bikes, and of course the kayaks and golf cart. You won’t get bored on a rainy day! Chaz was easy to communicate with and answered us quickly anytime we asked questions. We...

9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (6)
"We drove over from St Augustine to explore Rainbow River and have a couple of nights to relax in the peace and quiet. The cabin was exactly as described, communication was excellent, and the location was just what we needed. We enjoyed dropping the kayaks into the Withlacoochee and allowing our pup, Izzy, to swim to her heat’s content. Our host ensured that we had everything we would need to make the stay wonderful."

Haven at Rainbow Springs + Free Kayaks, Heated Pool, Game Room

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (15)
"Property was bigger and better than we imagined! It was laid out so nicely with open kitchen, dining and living which also flowed right into pool area. Pool is small but fire table and lights make it cozy for evening dips. Lots of games and books. Kitchen was well stocked and we made many meals. Bedrooms are spacious and each has a full bath. The kayaks were fun and easy to move on the trailer. Rainbow River was a blast! But also the only thing to do within an hourish drive. We did have a...
