Our stay at Dreamcatchers Cottage was exceptional, the cottage was clean with many amenities, the river in the back with canoes or kayaks to use. The hosts were amazingly welcoming and had everything you could need in the cottage. This was an excellent experience. 10 out of 10. Thank you so much.

A dream vacation at Dreamcatcher Cottage!

My husband and I stayed the weekend here with our 2 boys ages 8 and 14 and could not have had a better time. The hosts were friendly, communicative, and very thoughtful. The river was amazing, the home was clean, they had every little thing we needed. This was exactly what we needed to relax and unwind. 10 out of 10, highly recommend!!

Memorial Day weekend getaway

Everything was just wonderful. Hosts communicated quickly & were just great at making our stay memorable. Loved the back deck listening to the birds. My husband fished. I did some kayaking & biking. Lots of little things made the place special & it was very clean. Couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing weekend. We’re only a little over an hour away & would definitely book again.

Charming Relaxing Cottage on the River

My husband and I wanted a little getaway for our anniversary. We found Dreamcatcher Cottage about an hour from us and so glad we decided on this one! Patti and Dave are friendly and welcoming. They live next door but we had plenty of privacy to relax. They offered for us to check in early and stay late beyond the stated times. It rained the first two days so we enjoyed inside; very quiet and clean, lots of books and games to spend the time (there's a tv and vhs/dvd available as well, which we didn't use). Kitchen is well-appointed and had everything we needed. Backyard is spacious and private and so beautiful on the river. My favorite part was sitting outside at dusk by the river and just watching and listening to the wildlife and the wind in the trees. Saw blue heron, turtles, and a gator (who floated peacefully by). Across the street is a little restaurant that had great food and a friendly waitress. Lovely quiet little area. Thank you Patti and Dave! We will be back and will recommend to all!

Fun family getaway

This is our second time staying in this lovely cottage just 3 blocks from where my brother's home is. We are planning on returning again next year. There are so many activities that you can do. One of our favorites was riding our bikes on the paved trail just a couple of blocks from the cottage.

We LOVE this cottage!

This is our second stay at the Dreamcatcher Cottage. Once again, we were impressed with the cleanliness of the cottage. The setting is so peaceful, right on the river. Well we didn’t utilize any of the available amenities such as kayaks or bikes, the fact that they are available at no additional cost is really great. Highly recommend Dreamcatcher Cottage!

Wonderful stay at Dreamcatcher Cottage

Everything about the cottage and the stay was great and was as described on the listing. Patti and Dave were friendly hosts, lovely people who made us feel very welcome with a great check in experience. They live next door to the property, are available if needed but are not overbearing in any way. Using the canoes on the river was a lots of fun. We had our own fishing gear but rods with reels were available in the shed for anyone not taking their own. A lot of thought and care has gone in to the decor and supplies in the cottage. We would stay here if visiting the area in future.

We celebrated our anniversary by spending a few days away from town. This was a great place to re-connect with mother nature and find some quiet time.

Relaxed Vacation Time

This was our second week-long stay at the lovely Dreamcatcher Cottage. The Cottage was just as expected: clean, comfortable, and peaceful, with considerate and thoughtful hosts nearby if needed to support our stay. We come to this area primarily to ride the Withlacoochie Trail on our tandem, and it is a short ride from the home to the Trail, about a half-mile. A shed is provided for bicycle storage. We just settle in to the home with our groceries and enjoy our rides, cooking our meals and sitting on the deck or by the river, watching birds and squirrels and listening to sounds from the river. A firepit and wood is provided for your use, as well as bicycles and kayaks and canoes and a paddleboat. A wide variety of books and movies and music are available in the home. For us, it is a haven. We enjoy our stays here and would happily return again and again.
