Beautiful cozy cottage fully fenced near town and springs

Enjoy a late evening fire pit and grill out with family and friends. This house is perfect for a cozy getaway. 🌿 Local Recommendations

Here are a few of my favorite spots to visit (and eat!) while you’re here in beautiful High Springs:

🏞️ Springs & Outdoor Adventures

1. Gilchrist Blue Springs
One of the clearest and most scenic springs in the area. I highly recommend renting a paddleboard and spending the day exploring the spring run and river — it’s peaceful, beautiful, and a true Florida gem.

2. Ichetucknee Springs
About a 25-minute drive, but absolutely worth it. Float down the crystal-clear Ichetucknee River on a tube — it’s relaxing, fun, and one of the best ways to experience Florida’s natural beauty.

3. Poe Springs
A quieter spot that’s great for swimming, picnics, and a slower pace. Perfect for families or a peaceful afternoon in the water.

4. Ginnie Springs
Famous for its vibrant blue water and underwater caves. Great for swimming, snorkeling, or just lounging by the spring. It can get busy, but it’s definitely worth seeing at least once.

⸻

🍽️ Where to Eat

Spinwiches – A local favorite for sandwiches, wraps, and salads. Fresh and fast — perfect for lunch before hitting the springs.

The Great Outdoors – A charming spot with Southern-inspired meals, live music, and a cozy patio. Great for dinner or a relaxing night out.

Colsie’s Sweet Treats – A cozy bakery and coffee shop with amazing pastries, cookies, and espresso drinks. A perfect morning stop.

El Patio – Delicious and authentic Mexican food in the heart of town. Try the fajitas!

High Springs Brewing Company – A must-visit for craft beer lovers. Chill atmosphere, often with food trucks and live music.

Nice, cozy place just as described inside. Loved having the king size bed in the master and a kitchen for cooking. Peaceful location close to where we needed to be. Enjoyed bird-watching all the cardinals gathered in the yard. Jessica was very accommodating and had excellent communication.

The lot is nice and quiet. However, it is not fully fenced. Several parts of the fence were broken and not safe to let dogs off the leash there.House was spacious, but could use a few more cozy touches.We loved the accessibility to downtown and the springs. We would definitely book there again, as the place was very peaceful .

This was my first time using VRBO instead of a similar company where I had been burned so many times with bad listings that I stopped traveling for a while. I was not disappointed. This place was exactly as listed. Place was clean and no bad smells. Internet worked. Air conditioner was great. Bathrooms were stocked. Beds were clean. Kitchen was stocked enough to get basic cooking done which is one of the reasons I prefer staying in a house versus a hotel. I did bring my own cast iron skillet and a good chef knife. The place was very quiet. Next time I visit the springs next summer, I will not hesitate to see if this place is available. It was close to everything that my guests and I were looking for. I rate it 5 stars all the way. The only thing that I can say for improvement would be that the outdoor gas grill could use some work. The grates were fairly rusty and no bottom pan. I made it work by using my cast iron skillet instead of the grates to put a good sear on some steaks. Having the option for an outside grill was nice but not a necessity. There was some charcoal in a cupboard and an a firepit thing I probably could have used instead.

Nostalgic springs trip

Had not shared the Florida springs experience with my wife and our friends from out of state. The accommodations were perfectly located just outside High Springs which has turned into a lovely little downtown with great restaurants and things to do. Only 20 minutes to numerous springs. Great communication with the host. Will definitely stay here again next time!

Spacious cottage

2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, tricky to find at firsr, but host is very responsive and gave clear directions. Location is close to springs and downtown--everthing you need to relax and enjoy the beautiful area. Only drawback was lack of grass in the yard, which can hopefully be fixed!
