Our property rental consists of 5-bedrooms and 6 primitive camp spots available with one nightly rate. This is perfect for a private "campsite" feel for a family and/or large gathering. Find a place for guests to park or rest their heads in either the 2-bedroom Lodge or the 3-bedroom home with full amenities. This venue provides the solution for those looking for a spacious gathering place and ability to entertain family members on the river with our 90 foot dock. Bring your fishing poles, boat or kayaks! A fun way to gather on the spacious, picturesque Suwannee River.

5 nights at Paradise Lake Rousseau ,Fl
My husband and I stayed in David's cabin for several nights & we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was cozy, but spacious enough for the two of us. It was very comfortably heated, which was great when the weather got down to the 30's overnight. The water was hot, perfect for the shower & washing dishes. But the thing that made this place special was being near the water & watching the many birds. We saw sandhill cranes, ibis, coots, ahinoules, & galinules here. We would definitely recommend David's place!

We wanted to stay in the woods and that is exactly what it was. My first time "glamping" and I recommend it. Nice to sleep in a real bed, have AC, heat and protection from the elements. We made a fire every night and enjoyed the trees, birds and squirrels running around. It is close to the main house, but we were unbothered and it felt private. Definitely a thumbs up! Very quiet yet close to town.

We loved our stay! It was an adorable cozy little cabin with the benefits of camping--dinner over a fire, enjoying the outdoors, and an outdoor shower (so cool and enjoyable--even when it got cold at night!). We will definitely be back here. Perfect for a short getaway weekend and very easy to take kids with you without the stress of cramming into a tent and/or getting bad sleep on the ground. We brought out 5 month old and had plenty of room for her portacrib ! Very simple and fun!

I stayed in the cabin, it is cute and clean and the bed is very comfortable. There is a small kitchen equipped with cooking utensils, bring your own spices, condiments, etc.
The tap water has a high iron content so consider bringing water for drinking, coffee, etc.
The campfire was great as was the company 😊

My partner and I decided to extend our vacation to spend more time paddle boarding the beautiful springs and seeing the manatees, and Colleen’s place was affordable, peaceful, and in close proximity to the springs! We loved showering under the stars in the hot outdoor shower and we made an excellent meal on the charcoal grill. We didn’t use the bonfire pit, but the set up was really cute, with a hanging bench and an outdoor table and chairs. Although the place is situated fairly close to Colleen’s house, it still felt private and comfortable. We are avid and seasoned campers, so this “glamping” experience was familiar to us and had just what we needed (a warm, dog-friendly place to stay with a bed and hot shower) for a fraction of the price of an AirBNB or hotel stay. We would definitely visit again! Thanks Colleen!

Great getaway cabin! My wife and I brought our dog Zoe for the weekend to go see the manatees and we couldn’t have asked for a better time. The weather was perfect and the campfire was roaring. Our host graciously provided the firewood and gave us a great brief tour of what to expect. She even provided local knowledge on some local bars etc. our dog Zoe was fine in the cabin while we left in the AC and we went hiking not 10 minutes away. I would highly suggest this place and we plan to come back one day.
