About this house rental
* 100 FT OF RIVER FRONT
* HALFWAY BETWEEN KP HOLE & SWAMPY'S
* DOCK IN FRONT OF HOUSE
* BRING YOUR OWN BOAT
RAINBOW RIVER RETREAT (relaxed get away for nature lovers). WI-FI (up to 25 Mbps)
Location on the river:
We are located in a prime spot on the Rainbow River, halfway between the popular K.P. Hole and the 484 Bridge. It is directly across from an uninhabited island (no house across the river which makes for a more private experience on our dock).
Accommodations:
Upstairs include a king bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, living room/dining room combo, bathroom and screened porch with full view of The Rainbow River. (The property requires stairs and may be difficult for guests with limited mobility)
Downstairs is a bedroom with both a queen and a single bed, large screened patio, outdoor shower, second full sized refrigerator and a laundry room with full-sized washer/dryer.
Home sleeps 5 comfortably.
Two single kayaks and one canoe are available at $75 each per stay with a $250 damage deposit.
There is also a volleyball/badminton net in the spacious yard plus an outdoor fire pit and a propane gas grill (propane not included due to liability).
What to do?
Our main attraction is the 6 mile long spring fed water wonder, The Rainbow River....in the front yard: enjoy nature, i.e. otters, a plethora of birds, turtles, vast array of fish, kayak, canoe, tube, snorkel, fish, swim.....72 degrees year round.
--Blue Run Park, popular biking/hiking/walking trail nearby (5 minutes) with a newly constructed bridge over the Withlacoochee River (Bass Capital of the World)
--Historic district of Dunnellon offers shops/eateries
--Gulf of Mexico (20-30 minutes) if you enjoy salt water fishing, boating, diving and scalloping (season for scalloping is usually from June to September)
--Cedar Key (45 minutes) a quaint fishing village, oyster and clam farms, kayaking, beaches
--Crystal River (25 minutes) a premier dive location known for its abundance of manatees in the winter
--Gainesville (45 minutes) home of the University of Florida Gators, wonderful cultural arena

The family had a great week here. Perfect family vacation spot on the river. You can jump right in from the dock. There’s a few large rocks you can stand on in the middle of the river to take a break. Beautiful location in a charming city. We visit Rainbow River annually and will be staying here again next year. 10/10

This was our second time staying here and it was even better than the first time. Great location with access to numerous recreational activities outside your door. The Rainbow River is a treasure and we look forward to returning soon.
