Out the door lake view

The cottage has a great view of the lake and great location for the amenities of this resort, but unfortunately, while our boat was parked, some items became missing. Host is great. Place is nice and clean. Just keep your stuff locked up.

Nice holiday house

We went up with our two grandsons to enjoy the springs. The house was very nice and clean when we walked in. We were able to ride our bikes over to salt Springs. The kids and I enjoyed riding our bikes around the property. We paddleboard it on the lake right out front. I would definitely recommend this property. We normally camp, but we sold our RV. It was truly a pleasant stay and priced right. Oh, and the neighbors were very nice.

Perfect Getaway

Krista's cabin was absolutely amazing for our little getaway. It was decorated so cute, everything was clean and it has everything that we could possibly need for cooking and relaxing. If we forgot something Krista had it. Check-in was a breeze and Amy at the Gate was the sweetest and so helpful letting us know about the area and best times to get to the springs. The view was beautiful to wake up to every morning and have coffee. The wildlife was so fun to watch. We played shuffleboard every day, went to the springs, utilize the pool and attempted horseshoes. There's just so much to do right across the street that we are going to have to come back. My boyfriend and I have been bragging to all of our friends about how amazing our trip was. We will definitely be booking again!

Cabin 21 is clean, well-equipped, very nice. It is close to pools and lake, actually most activities that can be enjoyed on your Salt Springs Resort vacation. Three very close options for eating out: Square Meal, Salt Springs Pizza, and The Grill Out-don't order a double burger unless you're starving.

Weekend at the Lake

Perfect little waterfront cabin. Clean and perfect location for a weekend on the lake. Beautiful view of little Lake Kerr out the front window and screened in porch to sit out and enjoy the view. We brought our golf cart and boat and had an awesome stay. Campground is clean and everyone is super friendly. Krista was very great in communicating and we are ready to book our next stay there.

Great place to stay. The cabin was spotless, had very nice furnishings, an upgraded shower and had everything we needed. It truly felt like home. The owner was not on premise, however, she was very easy to communicate with via text and very quick to respond. We hope to be here again next year.
