Quiet hours are from 9pm - 8am on weekdays and from 10pm - 9 am on weekends.

Beautiful spot on the river. Fully equipped with everything you might need. Kitchen well stocked, plenty of towels, etc. Loved kayaking on the river & watching/hearing the wildlife. Nice to already have kayaks, canoes, and bicycles. All in great shape. Justin (the host) was great at communicating & making us feel comfortable. 2nd time here. Will definitely stay again. We enjoyed listening to the birds from the back porch early in the morning too.

What a gem! The enclosed porch was heavenly for watching the storm that came through the last night we were there.. Enjoyed the river on the tandem kayak and tried our hand at fishing even though the river was low. Got some bites and my husband caught 2 bowfin fish on the bank. House was very clean and Justin was very responsive to our texts.

A Lovely Spring Break and Bike Trip

We enjoyed the quiet location and natural setting of the River House. It was great being just a few minutes from the beautiful bike trails. Justin was a great, easy to communicate with host. The house had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean. We look forward to a return stay.

Relaxing place to stay while exploring the area. Beautiful piece of property. Full moon was magical through the live oaks. Nothing fancy, but the bikes, kayaks and canoes are a fantastic bonus to the booking. The host has thought of everything. Hope to return next year!

Paddlers’dream cabin

This property is gorgeous. Pictures don’t quite capture the majesty of the oaks and serenity of the water. Nice newer kayaks with easy access to the river. Cabin itself is super cute and had lots of little things you would need, oil, seasonings, etc…I actually would have planned more meals at the tasty Riverside Restaurant just up the road had I known how close it was. This was a great place to escape the hustle and bustle. I’ll be back for sure.

Just had our best ever vacation!

Stayed at the River House with my husband and our 13yo daughter for 5.5 days. The house was perfect. Very clean and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Justin was easy to work with and communication was good. We did not get to use the kayaks and canoes because we thought that the current on the river was moving too fast for us after the recent hurricane activity but we hope to make another trip before next year. Location was good- we had to drive an hour or so in several directions to get where we wanted to go but the River House was centrally located for our needs so it worked out great. In addition to visiting relatives in Dade City we were able to make two trips to Fort Island Beach to swim and magnet fish; we visited the Florida Aquarium in Tampa; went shelling on Caladesi Island; and did a tubing trip on the Rainbow River; all in between visiting relatives. I even had time to read an entire John Grisham book from Justin's library. I also fished several times in the river behind the house- did not have a single bite, likely due to the recent storm activity. We cooked several meals at the house and were happy to have the use of the grill that was provided. Overall, a 5 Star experience. Thanks Justin!

Loving the Withlacooche House

This property is just absolutely beautiful! It's so peaceful and relaxing. The house itself is perfectly outfitted for couples, families or, in our case...a girl's crafting weekend. The only thing that we didn't like is that we didn't have enough time to stay here for a whole week. We will be back!!!

Peaceful location

Clean, well stocked house. Comfortable bed. Host was very responsive and helpful. Lots of equipment for outdoor activities on the river. Unfortunately my arthritic knee had difficulty walking down and up 45° kayak launch wood ramp. Slippery and steep so i was unable to use the kayaks. Enjoyed the screen porch with beautiful view and lots of birds! Friendly neighbors!

Beautiful Decor and Scenery

The River House was absolutely gorgeous. The check in process was easy. Justin promptly responded to our question about accessing the shed where the bikes and kayaks were stored. The house is beautiful and well stocked with everything one would need for an extended stay. The location was very quiet and peaceful. The cleanliness was excellent; no complaints at all. My husband, who’s extremely picky, said he would definitely stay again. That’s high praise indeed!

This house was a quiet and peaceful gem of a location. The house itself was more spacious than anticipated and very clean, functional, and comfortable. While we didn’t have a lot of time to take advantage of all the recreation opportunities, we did have a very nice kayak trip on the river. Hope to go back again when I have more time.
