A Serene Lakeside Retreat
Our stay at this beautiful home on Lake Santa Fe was nothing short of perfect. The views from the screened-in porch were absolutely incredible, providing a peaceful backdrop for our mornings and evenings. The neighborhood is quaint and quiet, adding to the overall sense of tranquility. We were especially captivated by the stunning sunsets each night. This is a place we would gladly return to for another relaxing getaway. Highly recommended!

What a beautiful paradise
Had an amazing stay and it couldn’t be a more beautiful home. Bunnies, hawks, owls, squirrels, turtles, and fish everywhere. The beautiful Cypress and lapping waves of Lake Sante Fe, I felt like Marjorie Kinan Rawlings watching a deer and dreaming of being on the water as I rocked on the swinging bed on the most beautiful porch watching candy colored sunsets or even enjoying a run in the rain, washed anew in fresh dreams enjoying the area. Refreshing to say the least.

What a wonderful lake house!
The lake house was absolutely perfect for our family. Beds were very comfortable and enough bathrooms to accommodate everyone. Living room space was great! We enjoyed having a lot of seating right in front of the big tv and fireplace. The office behind the tv was an awesome space for my mom to do her makeup in the morning! Loved all of the big windows and blinds to close at night time for privacy. The back porch facing the lake was beautiful and relaxing. We were able to bring our boat and tie up on the dock at the property. Very well stocked kitchen with dishwasher and lots of space. Washer and dryer were great. I will book again for our next Thanksgiving trip! Thank you again to our awesome hosts. They were great and quickly available for anything we needed. Book here!!

Great lakefront property. Pictures are accurate, beautiful house, and many enjoyable sunsets over the lake. The house was clean which is always my top priority. The beds were comfortable. The appliances in the house are excellent. We enjoyed seeing boaters, jet skis and wake boarders on the lake on Saturday. We would stay here again and would recommend to others!

Spring Break on a Lake
After driving 1200 miles we were delighted to watch the sunset from the dock and listen to the birds and life around us. The home is delightful. There were 4 of us and we enjoyed the porch overlooking the lake and our family time. The owners are excellent... easy to communicate with and answer questions. We brought a boat, which made exploring fun too... the lake is beautiful. The proximity to the Gainesville Airport is excellent... makes travel easy too. This is a quiet peaceful home to regroup after a long winter :)

A place to gather, relax, explore
One of our best VRBO experiences. We appreciated the care and thought that went into this property and for providing everything to make our stay enjoyable. The light from all the windows is amazing. We loved gathering in the kitchen to make meals, playing games at the table, hiking and biking in the area, and relaxing on the dock or porch swing. Wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
