Best view cottage at Salt Springs Resort

Come relax and enjoy this adorable cottage with the best location in the Salt Springs Resort. You will appreciate the gorgeous views and lovely breeze from Little Lake Kerr. Cottage #21 is one of the few cottages available for rent from which you can watch the sunset over the lake every night directly from your front patio.

This 720 sq foot 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage
has everything you need for a comfortable stay including: kitchenware for cooking, gas stove/oven, toaster, coffee maker, microwave, blender, pool towels, board games, tennis raquets & pickelball paddles, poker set, outdoor gas grill and picnic table, cable TV & wifi. Comfortably sleeps 4, but can accommodate 6. Inquire in advance as we can provide a nice queen sized inflatable mattress.

Resort amenities start just 100 steps away from home to the two pools and waterfront including hot tub, game room, volleyball, pickleball, corn hole, horseshoes, shuffleboard, fire pit and more! Bring your boat; there's plenty of parking and a boat ramp on site.

Within walking distance are a Dollar General, post office, the Square Meal for breakfast or lunch, Salt Springs Pizza, post office, hair salon and laundromat. Other nearby restaurants like Maxine's Kitchen, The Grill Out, Odd Todds & Cactus Jacks are a few minutes drive away.

Explore the local area: Salt Springs Recreational Area is across the street and nearby is the Salt Springs Marina where you can launch your boat into the run that brings you to the St. John's River. Juniper, Silver Glen, Silver Springs and Alexander Springs are all within a short drive. Bring your snorkel masks from home and spend a few hours at each spring. No two are alike. Like hiking? Bass fishing? Dirt biking, 4x4'ing (trails begin across the street!) Spectacular sunsets? It's all here!

There's ample parking at the cottage for 2 vehicles including a boat/trailer. Note that Salt Springs Resort charges a one time check-in fee which includes 1 vehicle for $35, additional vehicles for $15. We do charge a one time cleaning fee of $75.

Everything we needed and more! Cottage had perfect view of Lake with trees and sand hill cranes frolicking. The cottage had all the necessary kitchen supplies, including spices. The cottage was very clean. The bed was comfortable. We were on the front porch for most of our brief stay and enjoyed chatting with the neighbors. We spent the day at Silver Glen Springs and felt like we got to slow down and experience the real Florida. Easy check in and check out. Dollar general is just around the corner for treats after spending a day exploring. We would highly recommend this well cared for and accomodating lodging.

Perfect getaway cottage!

This wonderful cottage did indeed have the best view as advertised. The cottage was perfectly stocked, comfortable, conveniently located and surrounded by Sandhill Cranes! We could have easily stayed an entire week, or more. Great communication and support. Hope to return one day.

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!
