Overall a great stay
Very peaceful, wonderful screen porch watching boats go by and listening to the waves lapping. Nice boardwalk through the grounds with interesting flora. I have to agree with others that the bed was not the most comfortable, however, we brought padding that we use for camping and it was much better. The bed was the only con, and the pros far outweigh that, especially since you can make it more comfortable. Really enjoyed the seclusion and quiet. We will come back!

Convenient
Perfect for fishing. I didn't do any fishing but this is a perfect spot to use as a home base. It was very convenient to Volusia raceway, which is why I was there. The sofa bed is terrible and really needs to be replaced. I was traveling solo, so I just slept on the couch without folding it out. The location was convenient for my trip.

Beautiful studio cabin overlooking the river! Our 18ft Bayliner fit perfectly under the cabin with immediate access to the river. We visited Silver Glen Springs (45 mins) and Drifters waterfront restaurant. Our new favorite place to stay!

Relaxing, total Florida vibe.
My son and I stayed for a week. we were looking for a true Florida river experience and that's what we found there. It was out of the way and peaceful but not too far from town. The house was very interesting, clean, and comfortable. The owners called when we got in to make sure everything was ok. They gave us some dining suggestions that were fantastic. I will stay again when back in the area. Two thumbs up!

Peaceful and Intimate
Celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary together for five days. We didn't want to leave. It is cozy and comfortable. I brought our favorite pillows and blankets, food and drinks. The restaurants right around the corner came through in a crunch when we didn't catch any fish. Tasty and affordable. It was so quiet our first night my husband was whispering inside and on the porch. We got comfortable and enjoyed the views of the boats going back and forth, the birds, manatees and one gator. We brought our fishing boat. The only comment I would say to others with boats is to pull in, hold up and assess the driveway. We have a long truck and trailer, so we decided to back out and back in with our trailer after we dropped off the boat at the boat ramp. I parked it in one of the parking spots and could navigate in and out without an issue. We had a great visit with my sister and husband who brought our 9 yr old nephew to fish off the dock. Plenty of outside room to keep him entertained and an opportunity for us to share a couple of meals together before they headed home that evening. Enough space for visiting and being an efficiency the opportunity for us say toodle to have privacy to share each other's company. We are already wanting to redesign our own porch to replicate the experience.

The property was very secluded and romantic! The sound of the water lapping underneath was very hypnotic and relaxing. The screened in porch provided an AMAZING view of Saint John River and all the sights and sounds of river life. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. The location was ideal... with many springs just a short drive away. WE WILL BE BACK!

Property management needs to step it up!!!
The bed is terrible!!! They should have a Murphy bed or better arrangement, it’s a pull out couch with a 70 pound coffee table to move. The unit had a touch and ant problem the was noticed the minute the lights on in rental. The outside was to dark including the stairwell were a crowbar was left in middle of steps, but couldn’t see it until it was to late because the lighting issue. We cooked on the grill got halfway through cooking and propane ran out. The spare next to it was empty also. Great locations but needs general maintenance!!!!!

Hi James P, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following: "We apologize that you were not completely comfortable and the pull-out couch did not suit your personal preferences. We have external lights coming down the stairway that brightly illuminates the walkway area for our guest's safety. We encourage guests to reach out with any concerns while in residence so we have the opportunity to make things right - the local contact would have been happy to help. We were not aware the propane was low and will be replaced. We truly go above and beyond for our guests, and we are confident that future guests will have excellent stays!"

The studio boathouse was exactly like the pictures. Our stay was for a week in Feb. The weather was perfect and the area was amazing. We enjoyed the property and our stay. It was a perfect place for 2 people. We loved the phone call pre checking in from the owners for any questions we had. We will definitely return in the future.

Owners are wonderful!
I’ve rented VRBO properties before and never had an owner call prior to my stay to give me details and answer questions I had. I felt very prepared for what to bring because of that. They were available when we needed them through out our stay and were most helpful. Several reviews mention the sleeping arrangements so here is our take on that. This is a studio, there is no bedroom which the listing states. We slept on the pull out couch and there is an air mattress available as well. I am 105 lbs and I slept like a baby the whole week. I was very comfortable! My husband is 185 lbs and he really felt the bars in the mattress where I did not. The difference is going to depend on your size but the foam padding made it completely unnoticeable for me. He agreed after 4 days there, that it was still a wonderful property and we would both recommend it. There is a heavy coffee table you will have to move out of the way to access it. We were able to do it ourselves but if you are physically unable, be aware of that. We brought kayaks which we were able to launch from the house. Huge perk! Highly recommend checking out Silver Glen Springs for snorkeling. $14 for the two of us to hang out all day - can’t beat that. We saw a manatee and an otter at the house - really neat experience to be so close to nature!! There are 3 huge sliders for great views even when indoors. We had all of our meals on the patio - it was INCREDIBLE. There is a large boat docked at the house. This did not interfere with our view of the River. You can hear the water and the hot underneath the home rocking in the wake at night. It didn’t bother us - we enjoyed the sounds but if you are bothered by that, it’s something to note. The neighbors were quiet - no issues for us as another reviewer mentioned. Some people just like to complain. This is a lovely home to rent for a getaway. It was just the 2 of us. I don’t think we’d have liked to share the space with anyone else. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

We had a great time . The best way to describe it was rustic meets eloquence.
The place is absolutely charming with a wonderful boat motif. We had all our meals in the screen In porch at night with the fans and the lights we felt it was like a restaurant. A beautiful 72" colour TV . All the moderate convenience including a refrigerator that gave ice and water. I'd recommend this place to any couple that wants to get away and have a private weekend. We fished off the docks. Drink wine by the fire pit . The view was amazing. As I tell everyone It's were rustic meet eloquence We would definitely go again

Relaxing Getaway
We stayed at this property for a long weekend to celebrate our anniversary and we loved it. The owner was extremely pleasant and and made the check-in process very simple. The boathouse is decorated nicely, well equipped, and we found it to be quite welcoming and cozy. The location is very close to several of the springs and the scenery is just beautiful! We didn't bring a boat, but it would be perfect spot to do so. We especially loved sitting out on the screened porch overlooking the river and walking along the private boardwalk that winds through the woods of the property. If you want to relax and get get away for some quiet, peaceful time, this is the perfect place to visit. Thank you, Marion, for a wonderful stay!

What an awesome place to start our Xmas vacation !!! Very quiet and perfect for two, to enjoy the outdoors of the Ocala National Forest and the privacy of the property and the cozy offerings the boathouse has to offer. Great screened in porch to watch the world go by, well equiped kitchen and plenty of room for us settle in. The dock, firepit area and raised board walk through the woods was a nice touch. Looking forward to coming back again.

Nice location but could be kept cleaner. Some electric outlets didn’t work. The pullout sofa bed is terribly uncomfortable. The owners should invest in either a new sofa or a Murphy bed. We liked the location but will not rent this accommodation again.

Hi Daniel, thanks for your review. This homeowner has asked us to pass along the following response: "Thank you for this feedback. One of the outlets is out. I clean the property myself and make sure the property is cleaned to the COVID guidelines. The couch is only a year and a half old. There are two foam sleep toppers available in the closet to adjust to your comfort level as well. There is also a blow-up mattress provided. We do recommend with the current COVID climate that guest bring their own pillows if they would feel more comfortable as well." Thanks for taking the time to leave your review!

We really enjoyed our weekend stay, very quiet neighborhood, caught some big fish off the dock too! It’s also located super close to some beautiful springs. Only down is that the pull out couch was uncomfortable but what do you expect? And the giant yacht takes up most water view on the dock, but fishing was still managed 😀 Lol it was all around a very cute studio home! I 0 recommended!

Pull out Bed is horrible and so is the air mattress
The property itself is nice I love the outdoor theme. However, Stairs are cracked Which was scary when you have little ones to worry about and the pullout bed is cheap I mean it’s like laying on only springs no cushion at all! Even with extra padding that was provided. The air mattress is a very thin more like a twin Air mattress and low to the ground also uncomfortable. I thought the property was away from other homes (which was my fault for assuming) but they have very noisy neighbors who party all night and made it even harder to sleep. I loved the location though it is right next to 3 different springs. The scenery is beautiful and the AC works great.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us this feedback! We're glad you liked the home, but we apologize for the issues you encountered! We've shared your comments with the homeowners and wanted to pass along the following: - The stairs had just been updated and there was a small crack but it was fixed immediately. - We hate that the beds were such a source of frustration for you! The pullout bed is a high-end model that has never received complaints before, and the owners provide extra pieces of foam for further padding. Similarly, the air mattress is a queen and has also never received any negative feedback, but we appreciate you letting us know! - We're unsure about the source of the noise you heard in the neighborhood; most of the homes in the area are not primary residences and noise complaints have never been an issue here. The two next-door neighbors specifically are an elderly man on one side and a second home for another family who was not there during your stay. Thank you again for letting us know about your experience - we appreciate your feedback!

Absolutely LOVED it!
We were amazed at the creativity and beauty of this place. The decor, construction, and setting put this “upstairs of the boat house” in a “must visit again” category. It is a scenic overlook; secluded yet open; and unique in every aspect. Be aware it has a flight of outside stairs leading to this single room apartment. (We’re in our 80’s and it worked out well.) You’ll find one large room with a hide-a-bed for sleeping while your boat rests below you! A good view of the St. John’s River is always in front of you as you look down from the well appointed screen porch. Great dining out in the little town of Astor available at the noted Blackwater Inn and the Essex cafe all within a quarter mile. Rental boats nearby to allow exploring the beauty of this river that flows to the north..... or bring your own.

Connie, thank you for your review. On our listing, we clearly outline the bedroom configuration of the home, as well as every amenity that is offered, so travelers can take those things into account when deciding whether or not to book. We clearly state that the beds at the property are a queen air-mattress and a sleeper sofa, and we can confidently confirm that we do not advertise this home having a washer/dryer or dishwasher; however, we apologize if this caught you off guard. As a studio cabin, this home does not have the space for these added amenities. The owner does appreciate your feedback regarding the hair dryer and will be sure to add one to the bathroom when she is at the property this weekend. Thank you again for your review and we wish you all the best in your future travels. Best, the Evolve Team

Beautiful property! The location is serene. Landscaping is incredible.
This property deserves five stars, however there were some glaring problems! Most importantly we had a 60-foot yacht taking up most of the dock and blocking our view the entire time we were there! Next, there was an odd and the decaying statue of a man child hanging from a rope in the boathouse. Just plain scary. Third, we were told the house has been rented many times to four people. The house was great but it was not equipped for four people to sleep. We had to buy our own air mattress to add to what they had left for us. We also had to buy our own blankets, aftrr a call to the owner, who was unwilling to provide them. We almost ran out of toilet paper, and there were no paper towels or napkins, but no extra rags to use instead. Finally, when we went to cook, we found that there was not even salt and pepper. Most houses we rent contain some minimum stuff that one needs in the kitchen-this one did not. Despite these problems waking up there every day was a treat,

There are also four additional blankets at the property, extra toilet paper, paper towels, salt and pepper, and a fully-equipped kitchen with pots, pans, dishes, and utensils.

Lovely Weekend in Astor, FL
We traveled down from central Georgia to spend a long weekend here visiting family nearby. The house and the grounds were clean and beautiful. The view of the water and all of the wildlife was very relaxing. While we were there we went to Daytona Beach one day and did some sight-seeing in Ormond Beach another day. Overall it was a great experience and we would highly recommend the cabin to others.
