Cottage holiday rentals in Suwannee River

Stephen was a pleasure to work with, very responsive and flexible as possible. He was proactive in letting us know that the check-in time was available sooner than listed. His keyless entry made it very easy to access his house and made it easy for all in my party to come and go as they pleased. His house was very clean and you could tell that as soon as you walked in the door. Everything worked well, his AC system provided arctic level cooling, his pool and hot tube was ready for use, his screened in game room was fun and actually stayed cool throughout the day, his outside gathering areas had plenty of seating, and his dock provided plenty of room to fish. This location on the canal was beautiful and easily accessible to St John's River. Definitely would stay here again and would recommend this place to anyone who wants a cool place to stay, relax and have fun. Thank you, Stephen, for your allowing us to stay at your house it was well worth the cost.

We’ve stayed at several places in this community over the years and this was definitely the best! Place was clean, the appliances were updated, and you can’t beat the proximity to the pool/clubhouse and the Lake views. Will definitely book again here.

Kathleen's home was wonderful. It was like staying at your fancy best friend's house who trusts you with all of her very cool, expensive gadgets. The pictures really do not do the home justice. She left treats for the humans and an Easter basket for the doggos. Very comfortable home and the CLEANEST AirBNB I have ever stayed in. Wonderful backyard area with plenty of comfortable seating and outside activities. I highly recommend Kathleen's home for your visit to Gainesville.

The family and I enjoyed our stay at The Poolside Cottage. There were plenty of amenities for the entire family to indulge in. Andrew and Melody made their home feel like “home away from home”. I definitely recommend 10/10.

The location was fantastic; when we got there, it even looked better in person. It had all the necessities and was a fairly roomy cabin/camper. A huge advantage was the patio and grill. We would definitely return; it's a nice pace for a quick getaway.

Beautiful house lovely house, responsive, helpful

She was a awesome host would stay again

Amazing home and view. So close to springs and other fun Florida spots. Perfect home for a relaxing weekend get away if you live in Florida! We will definitely be back! Thanks Ashley for your hospitality and wonderful communication!!!

This place is conveniently located close to historic downtown St. Marys. Cottage is a nice cozy place with privacy .

Great and comfy accommodations and very convenient location to town. Also right on the beach boardwalk. We would stay here again!

This is my 3rd time staying in Steven's place. Always clean and very peaceful location with a nice view.

Had a great time at Laurie's cabin. Really enjoyed the fire pit, foosball table and my husband loved playing guitar hero. Added bonus was the kids got to see lighting bugs for the first time. Beds were comfy, cabin was clean and well stocked. Close proximity to great trails and Rainbow Springs. Not quite as private as I anticipated from the pictures as there was a tiny home right next to us and the canal was behind owner's home and not the cabin as I mistakenly thought. Overall still a great stay. Owner was very sweet and let the kids feed the chickens, gave our a pup a treat and left a 'smores kit for us to enjoy.

This is the cutest little spot! Hosts certainly put a lot of thought into preparing for anything that you may need while here. I just wish I could have stayed longer to spend more time on those porches! The little restaurant next door served some fantastic food and great service too but they close early most nights so plan accordingly. We were in town visiting our college kid so we'll try and stay here again next time.

Fantastic stay! This tiny farmhouse was spotless, stylish, and comfortable. The space was stocked with essentials, the host was warm and accommodating, and the peaceful setting made it easy to relax. Highly recommend!

From the moment we arrived at the cottage, we felt instant nostalgia. This farm stay brought back memories of childhood retreats and gave our kids an unforgettable experience. The host’s thoughtful touches—from fresh eggs and linens to a personal barn tour and hayride—made us feel right at home. The animals, especially the gentle bull Trouble and Sammy the paint horse, stole our hearts. Mornings were peaceful with coffee and roosters, and the kids were never bored, enjoying the pool, hot tub, swings, games, and even axe throwing. Our final night’s campfire under softly glowing lights was the perfect sendoff. The sounds of owls and laughter created lasting memories. This was the first stress-free vacation we’ve had as parents, and we left feeling like family. Life Renewal Ranch is more than 5 stars—it’s a place we’ll never forget. Thank you, Michelle, for your hospitality and heart. We’ll definitely be back!

The hosts were very quick and helpful. The house was beautiful, and the view was just perfect! My grandmother and mom stayed here from out of state. It was the perfect place to be able to spend family time. My grandmother said the bed was very comfortable and they felt right at home. Thank you again for such a great weekend!

Julia was incredible!! We book last minute to get away from a coming hurricane. She kindly allowed us to check in early and gave us a discounted rate. While she was dealing with her own hurricane preparations she quickly responded to every request and went above and beyond. Her place was beautiful and we can't wait to visit again when the weather is better!!

Wonderful stay! Comfortable, nicely decorated and had everything I needed for my stay. This was a last minute request to stay here and Chesa was very accommodating and helped me get checked in quickly. She made sure all my dates that I requested were covered. I highly recommend staying here.

This Is a great place that has amazing lake views and is very peaceful. This was a much needed quiet vacation that helped me unwind and next time I am going to try fishing , thank you so much for sharing your home.

Thank you so much for hosting this stay. Clean, photos match description perfectly ! Quiet, but so much to do ! Thank you for the guide with restaurant recommendations and things to do, I can’t wait to stay here again !!!! 😀😀😀

Wonderful stay, the cottage was so inviting, clean, spacious, and comfortable. The property is just beautiful. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen and breakfast. The hosts were extremely nice and very responsive. I forgot some jewelry in the cottage, and they contacted me to let me know and offered to send it.

I had an amazing stay at this beautiful cottage tucked away on peaceful acreage. The surroundings were serene and relaxing—perfect for a quiet getaway. The cottage itself was spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I especially loved waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying my morning coffee on the porch. The host was incredibly nice and very responsive, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this gem if you’re looking for a tranquil escape near the springs!
