A great 3 bedroom 2 bath house.

A great 3 bedroom 2 bath house. The additional 2 bedrooms and bath in the “Treehouse “ are in need of tlc. I’m sure the owners will work on improvements, but for this stay the trail and steps to get to the treehouse are treacherous. The bathroom, on the lower floor, is easily accessible to critters and is just creepy. It is not comfortably accessible to the 2 bedrooms. You basically need to go outside to get to it. Not fun in the middle of the night. Also note the description states the master bedroom in the main house has 2 queen beds. It’s actually a queen and twin bed. Again, the main house has everything you need. Just don’t draw the short straw and end up in the treehouse.

Family

We loved the very roomy 3 bedroom house, beautiful view of the lake/pond. Large screened porch, large outside deck, well stocked lake with fish. We did not like the tree house with the two extra bedrooms, it was a little difficult to get up to on the steep stairs, but we liked the other two bedroom cabin next door, that we also rented. We had 10 adults and 5 kids under the age of 10, and between the house and cabin, worked out great for us.

Steinhatchee get.

Nothing else like this in Steinhatchee. Old style Florida at it’s best. Nice pond to catch and release or swim and play in fresh water right off the back porch, or sit and watch the fireflies, falling stars and listen to the frogs at night while having a cold one or talking over the day. Private and secluded, but only a few easy walking blocks to the Sea Hag marina.

A MUST STAY PLACE!

There wasn't a place to stay from LaKe City/Perry to Gainesville/Ocala because of the festivals . I needed a place for a week to for my family of 9 to stay while my mother was in Hospice and for her funeral. Somehow Mr. Kirk Jones' property came up on my search. I told him my story and he was so gracious and allowed us to use his place. When we arriIved, he was waiting to show us around. He has a large house and property with a stocked pond that the children loved. The pond alone kept our minds off of our problems. I would recommend this property whole heartedly!!! Many "Thank you" to Mr. Jones. The Browns

We had an amazing time at the Lake House!

Our whole party of 13 had a blast! We swam in the Lake as well as fished it and the kids caught carp, catfish and bream. The owner was amazing, accommodating and answered promptly every time I reached out. For such a busy town, this property was very secluded and we felt like we were out in the country and away from the madness, despite being right across the street from SeaHag Marina. The frogs outside provided great white noise while we slept every night. All in all 5 stars! We had such a great time, next year we may rent all 3 houses and bring extended family too! Many memories made here and will most definitely be back next year for another epic scalloping trip.

We rented this place for our family reunion and it was perfect for the occasion. Plenty of space and things for us to do. Huge pond right outside the porch with tons of fishing. Close to everything you needed. We will be back year after year. Thank you so much.

Wonderful place to stay!

Everything was Clean and well stocked for the stay. Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Owner was very responsive to any questions we had all weekend. Pond was very well stocked with fish. We has a blast fishing both days as well as using the paddle boat. We spent most of the time on the screened porch or on the deck . The tree house was an added bonus for an extra couple to join the fun . Definitely recommend this rental.

Not horrible but not good

Owner was great to work with but the tree house part of the property with the two rooms has obvious mold and a wet smell so we didn’t use it making it uncomfortable in the main house. We were able to use the other property the next day for a fee but found cockroaches in the bathroom and in the beds ( dead but there ), also appliances in the main house didn’t work ( washer and stove ) so we have to use the other house for that. The pond and activities were fun but housing needs work.
