Wonderful location on the Suwannee River. Close to Manatee Springs and the Gulf. So happy to be able to bring and dock a boat. Boat ramp is 2 minutes down the road. The neighbors were extremely friendly. The house was clean and spacious enough for our large group. The only downside to our stay is that one room with a King bed was extremely warm while the rest of the home was nice and cool. It would not cool down enough, to the point that we opted to sleep on an air mattress next to the kitchen instead of in that room after the first night. Besides that, we could not be happier with our stay!

Fun Stay on the River

We had a great time at the Otter House. The living room and kitchen is a big open floor plan with tons of seating. Beds were very comfortable. Nice TV and great channel selections avaliable. Loved the dock and amenities. We ate atTreasureCamp restaurant down the street. Amazing food. I would highly recommend this place. Lots of fun.

Great water views!

From check in to check out, everything was wonderful. We were greeted by Clara and John as we drove up and they presented us with a little gift basket! The house was perfect for us! There were two adults and one 12 year old, so we each had our own bedroom and there were two bathrooms! We cooked most meals there so we really enjoyed the big kitchen. Loved the views of the water and the sunny, glassed/screened in porch. We let Brian know that the bigger of the two coffee makers was not working and before we knew it, there was a knock on the door - it was John with a brand new Keurig! Everyone we encountered was friendly, helpful and helped to make our stay enjoyable. Thank you Brian, Clara and John!

Awesome for fishing

The Otter House is really nice, spacious and comfortable. The view of the river is spectacular. My husband fished from the dock the entire stay and caught LOTS of fish. Used nightcrawlers on the bottom. The yard was really nice for the dog. The restaurant down the street had great food.

Quiet & Cozy

We had a wonderful week stay! We came from Ohio and found delight in the warm weather and did tons of day trips within 1 hour of this house. The house was set up with 3 bedrooms, although 1 of them is connected. So to use the bathroom, you have to walk through the other bedroom. We loved the fully equipped kitchen, keypad door lock, and the beds were very comfortable! There was a lot of pet hair in some areas, and underneath furniture, but overall fairly clean. The dock was really close to the house and a great place to look in the water and fish. We loved the area and most of all no snow!

Anniversary stay

Property was clean and well maintained. Instruction for closing up were very simple and straight forward. I did not flip the circuit breaker for the water heater as it was on when we arrived.

A Peaceful Stay on the Suwanee River

Our family enjoyed the property and spent a lot of time on the dock. The house was nicely decorated and well-appointed. A bonus was the nice little restaurant right down the street. The location is close to both Manatee Springs and Cedar Key, so we used it as a home base to explore the area. We would definitely stay again, thank you for the pleasant experience!
