We had a fantastic time at this charming fishing lodge right on the St. John's River. The rooms were well-kept and nostalgic, truly capturing the essence of Old Florida. The fishing and boating options were a great highlight, and the staff was very accommodating, making our stay even more enjoyable. However, the on-site dining options were limited due to renovations, which was a minor setback. Overall, it's a great getaway spot, and we plan to return soon!

We had a memorable stay at this charming resort, enjoying the old Florida atmosphere and ample opportunities for relaxation and exploration. Our room was clean and equipped with all the essentials, but the mattress was a bit firm for my taste. The location along the St. John's River offered stunning views and easy access to activities. The dining options were delightful, especially the cafe overlooking the water, though I wish there were a few more choices available. Overall, it was a fantastic getaway for a family vacation!
