Branford House | Idyllic Cottage Retreat Surrounded by Parks and Springs

2 Bedroom House with Laundry, Parking and Bedding

5 Acres of wilderness surround this simple block house, clean, only 10 years old, large deck set up for your vacation. Very clean house. (mention of smoke smell in one of the reviews was a battle, but it has been eliminated). 3 blocks from the Santa Fe River, public boat launch, 2 single kayaks included with this house. Bring your own boat if you wish, great fishing, most of the land along the river is Wildlife Refuge. The property is owned by Bird's Underwater Dive Center in Crystal River, home of swim with manatees tours, this is our 3rd listing in one of our favorite playgrounds. Ginnie Springs Resort is only 13 miles away a 200 plus acre park along the Sante Fe River. Ichnetucknee Springs Park, Manatee Springs State Park, Little River Springs and many other public access sites within 20 miles. This is cave diving country, but awesome for snorkeling, kayaking, fishing, an absolute nature get-away but only 40 minutes from Gainesville and 30 min. to Lake City. This large concentration of Florida Spring sites is unique to central Florida. Water Temperature is 72 degrees all year around, there are many public access sites that make this get-a-way a nature experience. House is located off of County Road 138th, 2.3 miles down a county maintained dirt road which ends at a small public park. Fish and Wildlife manages thousands of acres to the west, and down river you will see untamed State Forests. We have two light weight single kayaks at the rental unit for your use, but you will have to carry or transport them on your car a distance of 3 blocks. In the evening you will hear the owls, coyotes, and deer. There is no limit to the stars. Highly recommend that you check out Ginnie Springs Outdoors for a day of kayaking, picnics, bike riding, snorkeling, tubing, and/or volleyball.
