Lakefront Southern Charm with private dock

This Florida vacation home located on a beautiful lake in North Florida is just what you are looking for! Enjoy a relaxing and peaceful vacation away from it all. This 2800 square foot home is located on Cherry Lake, Madison County, Florida. Beautifully decorated with southern charm.

Enjoy the crystal clear waters of this spring-fed lake nestled in a very rural setting just two hours from Jacksonville, one hour from Tallahassee and just 30 minutes from Valdosta, GA. Cherry Lake is ideal for swimming, skiing, tubing, jet skis, and fishing. Large mouth bass and fresh water brim are plentiful in Cherry Lake.

Bring your boat and enjoy your favorite water sports. It is approximately a mile in diameter, almost a perfect circle in shape with a total of about 500 acres. This home has its own private dock. There are two bedrooms with a king-size bed in each, one upstairs and one down. The third bedroom has two queen beds and the fourth bedroom has two double beds, both located upstairs. There is an additional room with two twins off the downstairs bedroom, and a small room with one twin and a crib adjoining the upstairs bedroom. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you will need for large family meals. There is a Keurig and a drip coffee maker. Linens are provided.

In the evening enjoy a marshmallow roast or a campfire sing-along in the outdoor campfire area. Whether you're a golf enthusiast or an amateur, you will love our Golf Pong game. Putters and balls are provided. Fishing equipment is provided and there is no license required to fish from the dock. Get out on the water with the use of a kayak or paddle board provided for your fun and enjoyment. Life vests are also available for your use. For the young or the young at heart, a 50 foot rope swing is a thrilling good time for all. A huge yard provides space for yard games and plenty of space for the little ones to run around.

If theme park fun is what you are looking for, Wild Adventures is just 20 minutes away.
