Charming Santa Fe River Cottage - 10-15 min from 3 of FLA's most popular springs
Renovated in 2022, this is a 2 bedroom river cottage just a short walk from the Santa Fe River. Conveniently located near several Florida springs, great dining, & unique shopping. Check out our guest book for more info. **We highly recommend purchasing trip insurance that will cover a variety of issues that may arise prior or during your trip. Examples are medical events that prevent or shorten your stay, vehicle problems or accidents, and natural disasters (i.e. tropical storms and hurricanes) that require mandatory or suggested evacuation. Florida in the summer is always subject to strong storms which often cause lengthy power outages that can affect the property and could electively cause guests to shorten their stay. Trip insurance would potentially cover the remaining days depending on the policy purchased.
The tv wouldnât work in the spare room. The pull out couch bed frame was broke . The front door digital lock had issues . The rental was located near springs
The house was very clean and smelled wonderful. My friends and I did a kayak trip on the river and the convenience of the location to the boat ramp was wonderful. Unfortunately, a family emergency occurred so we did not stay overnight. I informed the host and got a reply within the hour. I would definitely recommend 10/10.
A bit rustic, but comfortable, quiet, and enjoyable
Picture & description useful. Very clean and very well supplied. Many amenities. Could use some minor repairs and paint. In the woods - which is a plus. River not as close as expected, but a short drive to a number of state parks offering boating and hiking which is why we were there. Steep stairs to second floor bedrooms. Would stay again.
Had a very nice stay at this house. Everything you need is there and it is so quiet and cozy. House was clean and everything functioned properly. The hosts are kind and kept contact with everything.
At first, we booked the house for August, but storm Debby rolled in can caused the river to flood and the boat ramp to be closed. They were very understanding and worked with us to get a new date on the schedule. We liked how the boat ramp was literally just a couple hundred yards from the house, which made it very easy to get in and out. The house was very nice and the neighborhood was quiet. The driveway circled back to the side road which made getting in and out easy without backing up. We will definitely stay there again!
Staying here is not recommended, during our visit a storm came thru knocking out both power and water. Owner showed no concern and offered no solution. You'd think the property owner would have had a backup system. We were forced to find other accommodations as the power and water were out for twelve plus hours.
We stayed for three nights and had a really nice time. It felt like a home away from home. The house was clean and cozy. I really loved how they had a lot of cookware lol because I cooked a lot for my kids birthday. I enjoyed the seclusion of the home without feeling totally isolated in the area. My kids and I had a wonderful time visiting the nearby springs. I would definitely stay here again! Thank you!
Short 2 day stay to visit the springs with grandchildren. Beautiful spot, the kids loved walking to the river. Even met some locals who were friendly and answered all the kids questions.đ
My family had a short but great visit to Ichetucknee Springs. We loved this river house and would definitely stay here again. Shawn and Jade obviously take pride in making this property comfortable and accessible. We hope to come back soon!
The owners were amazing and helpful! It was fully stocked with everything we needed! It was close to all of the local springs and destinations. We will be staying here again the next time we come to Ginnie Springs!
This was the perfect cozy cottage. Nice private Property. Everything we needed Was there. The location is amazing. We even seen Deer, A lot of Em. We had our17 months old and she loved it too! She thought the UNO Cards were there just for her đ . This is One of the Nicest Places we have Stayed at and Would Definitely Stay Again. Everything was Clean and Communication with Jade and Shawn was Excellent.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. It was just a short drive to the Springs and it was a very comfortable house that had everything that I needed for the short time I was there. The only issue is that I didn't get to stay long enough. The next time I come, I'm hoping to stay closer to a week rather than just a few days. It's also only a 10-15 minute drive into town where you can pick up any groceries you need. For a place that's not that far from civilization, it gives you a nice country feel and it's also an extra bonus that it's right across the street from the Santa Fe river.
We stayed here 2 nights so we could kayak the river. The property is clean and well-equipped. We plan on coming back soon, this is perfect for a weekend trip!
We had a nice relaxing weekend in our home away from home! We visited the nearby springs and it was just a hop to get home! The hosts were communicative and welcoming! Thanks for the wonderful stay!
Nice little touches make this place feel very homely. The surrounding area with multiple springs nearby is absolutely beautiful. We will return again :-)
Shawn and Jade were fantastic hosts with great, quick communication for any questions we had. Clean house and private yard with lots of wildlife to enjoy. Loved the back screened in porch.
I had a great stay spending the new year's with love ones at this beautiful cottage. We walked each morning to the Santa fe river to go kayaking we also checked out ichetucknee spring and did some kayaking there as well. Everything that you will need to feel comfortable was available in this unique home. We will definitely come back again to visit thanks for having us!
Welcome to Huck's Hideaway on the Santa Fe River! We are so glad you are here! We are the Waugh family! Shawn, Jade and our 6 kiddos make up this lively bunch! We hope that your stay is relaxing and you come to love the beauty of "real" Florida as we do. Because our family loves to travel, we've made an effort to stock our river home with things that we know make accommodations feel like home. If you find that you need something not provided, please feel free to ask and we will do our best to see to it that your needs are met. We are always excited to serve our guests, and we take great pride in our accomodations.
Recently fully renovated. It is located in the rural area of north central Florida. The Santa Fe River is within walking distance from the property. A great place to fish or bring a canoe or kayak. Seclusion with no neighboring structures in site from the house. The quietness of the property is extremely relaxing.
This property is quaint and quiet. It is located within a 5 minute walk to the Santa Fe river where there is a boat launching ramp for those that like to spend time on the river. It is also located within a 15 minute drive of several of the local springs.
