River Run Riviera

**Bring your boat and RV** This newly renovated three bedroom Riverfront home on the banks of the Santa Fe River exhibits a large great room, comfortable seating, and a fully equipped kitchen. Enjoy a peaceful and private three acre lot with a large porch, access to three beautiful rivers, close to other parks, springs and recreational areas.
The property comes equipped with a 30 app RV hook up (additional charges apply)
The space
The house has a very comfortable living space with everything you will need to have an enjoyable stay. The kitchen and bathroom are fully stocked with everything you will need. The fall/winter weather is absolutely beautiful with clear crisp days and cool evenings. There is a hiking paths and within 15 minutes from the house, guests can go antiquing, hiking, and visiting nearby parks and recreation areas during the day. In the evening guests can sit by a cozy bonfire and roast marshmallows or oysters while enjoying their favorite beverage. The spring/summer is all about playing in the water. The springs have a year round water temp of 74 degrees so a lot of people enjoy tubing, swimming, kayaking and canoeing, boating, snorkeling and scuba diving and anything else a person would want to do in spring-fed rivers. The cabin is secluded and quiet with access to the Ichetucknee and Santa Fe Rivers. We even furnish Tubes. There are numerious deer, turkeys, and Raccoons in the area. Guests will have full access to the house and surrounding area. The house is equipped with wireless internet. There are miles of quiet roads for walking or biking and access to several state parks with river access. Wildlife is abundant and the fishing is great. Bring your golf cart! You can also set up a tent outside if you have additional guest. There is a BBQ grill at the Cabin so bring some steaks and enjoy a private cook out with nature. There is also a large grate that you can put over the fire pit and you can roast oysters or clams. The house also has two pull out couches in the great room.
There is fire wood available at all the stores in Branford.

Please note that we are on a river that sometimes rises. At time the water will be high enough that in covers the dock and is well up into the back yard. We actually love it like this as the water is clear, clean and beautiful. You can still bring a boat up into the yard and have full river access for the canoes and kayaks
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a kitchen island.

Enjoyed the location which was close to springs and restaurants. Secure and quiet location. Saw lots of deer and turkey. The host was responsive to text/emails. Please note one bathroom. There was a second located below the house but enclosed. The access to the river was wonderful. The walkway there was a little sketchy in a few places. Looks like owner is working on it. Had everything we needed in the kitchen. Needs a dishwasher.

We had a great time! Loved the house, the amenities and especially the river. We were completely comfortable and had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing vacation. The nearby towns had restaurants and grocery stores available and the nearby springs were a lot of fun. Thank you for sharing your home! We would love to return!

Just breathtaking. Being able to sit on the front porch and watch the fish jump in the River and the deer go across the yard every morning was beautiful. We took a boat down the River towards Branford and were able to visit 5 springs 2 of which aren’t accessible by land. Could only recommend this place. Great place for families
Kids tied the paddle board to the roots and would surf the boat waves
Royal spring
No name spring we found along the river

The property was perfect. Close to Ichetucknee Springs and many other parks but far enough away to get incredible peace and quiet. The house was setup for the dogs well, even had toys for them! And especially setup for a great family stay. We didnt leave the river for more than a few hours a day. The water is very clear and while it is active on the weekends, the weekdays its all yours. Fishing, floating, paddle boarding, kayaking for the humans and limitless sticks for the dogs to swim for during the day, while at night start a fire with wine and smores! We've been gone for less than a week and we are planning when we can go back. Thank you again, Michael!

High school friends annual get together.

The house was very comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for everyone. We enjoyed boating and swimming on the river and sitting on the dock mornings and evenings. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood. Would definitely recommend renting this house.

Ginnie Springs Weekend

This is the perfect family-friendly spot. The host thoughtfully provided amenities, games and toys for our kids making the stay even more memorable. We loved the original cabin vintage charm of this place! The host has done an incredible job preserving its character while offering modern conveniences. Aside from some initial inconveniences caused by a recent storm, we were still able to make the best of our stay. Beautiful weekend!

Nature calls!

We loved our stay in your home! It's a secluded beautiful home surrounded by nature! Woke up in the morning and had coffee on the pier and listened to all the birds. Really relaxing and enjoyable! Jump in the yak and go for ride. Really enjoyed the tree swing too! Close to the beautiful springs, we spent 4 days and had lots to do!

This home is in need of a deep cleaning. Kitchen cabinets and doors were dirty and sticky. Knives/pots/utensils had crust on them. Ants in the spice cabinet and counter. Bed sheets were not washed prior to our arrival(hair on pillowcases and sheets). Remotes in guest rooms didn't work. BBQ grill was filthy. Couch was uncomfortable and dirty. Bicycles with flat tires. Only 1 kayak was usable. 2 kayaks have holes. My son was sinking in the middle of the river. Jon boat had a hole as well.Paddle boat doesn't have a fin to steer. Messaged Michael and he said he would notify maintenance. He said it would take a few days for maintenance to get there. He said it was the 1st of him hearing about it but, one kayak was already repaired. Although he offered a small refund, it doesn't justify the inconvenience and disappointment we encountered. Our main purpose of this trip was to kayak on the river.
