Boathouse & Dock: Riverfront Dunnellon Getaway!

Very nice house with unique layout

We three cousins spent two weeks in very clean house right along the Withlacoochee river. The living room was spacious and had comfortable seating; one loveseat, one recliner, and a sofa with recliners at either end. Screened porch overlooking the river. The dock was in good repair and had one kayak and a SUP. Bedroom one, with a king bed, was comfortable and generously sized. Bedroom two, on the main floor, was much smaller and lacked adequate lighting, but the bed was comfortable. Downstairs, the master bedroom was extremely nice and also had a walk-in closet and access to the laundry room. Also downstairs, bedroom four wasn't used as there were only three of us. This bedroom was deemed least desirable due to the low ceiling height in the bedroom and the extremely low ceiling in the attached half bath. At 5' 11", my head hit the ceiling when I stood up. Someone shorter probably wouldn't mind that. Our property rep, Hendrik, responded quickly when we experienced an HVAC issue and communicated appropriately. We enjoyed our time here and would be happy to stay again.

Great property

Our family with 2 teenage boys had a great week. The house is charming, plenty of room with ample furniture and amenities, clean and well maintained. There are lots of places to enjoy the view of the river including the master bedroom, the family room (which includes a desk in the windowed corner for those of us who have to keep up with work), sun room, porch swing, picnic table, chairs around the fire pit. Kayaks/lifejackets available for use on the river. Lots of things available that aren't necessarily standard in rentals including kitchen spices/aluminum foil/etc, first aid kit, sunblock. Our goal was just to get away and spend time together playing board games, reading, watching movies, and this property met our needs perfectly!

The location of the house was great and we were looking forward to a nice, quiet weekend to recoup from a lot of traveling we've been doing for work and the holiday's. Our first day started off with no issues but by Friday that changed. Half the house had no heat. We contacted the person who was our contact for any issues that arise. He immediately got ahold of an a/c-heat repair man to come to the house that day. Which was awesome. However, we just got back from kayaking and was ready to relax when our contact person stated their was no reason for him to hang around while the repair man went inside and outside the house...for hours! My husband and I sat their with this repair man when all we wanted to do was relax and go to dinner. About 4 hours later we are still sitting there. We call our contact person who stated that we can just leave this random person in the house with all of our belongings laying about. I wasn't happy, but was starving and ready for dinner. So we left since it wasn't our responsibility to sit at the house we rented. About an hour into dinner I received the text that the repair guy wasn't able to fix the heat unit and wasn't able to come back until Monday. Mind you this was Friday evening and it was a cold weekend in Florida and most of the house was freezing except the dining room, kitchen and 1 bedroom upstairs which is where we ended up sleeping just so we didn't freeze to death. No one offered to get us space heaters or make other accommodations to make sure we were comfortably. We had to make a trip to the local Walmart and buy a heated blanket and space heater. The bathrooms were freezing. I feel like this situation could have been handled better by the contact person whom seemed to not care one way or another. Other than that issue the house was clean and very roomy. It would have been nice to enjoy the whole house and not just a room.

Cancelled our plans to hang out

This house was GORGEOUS. Our party had plans to go to the springs close by but fell in love with the house and location so much that we decided to stay in. We went to a few antique stores very close by and met really nice people and were able to relax. We are very excited to book again! Thank you!!!
