Welcome to Soluna Springs -- an aspiring 6 acre magical plot of land surrounded by cedar and pine trees, and soon to be fruit forest + farm + retreat space designed to help you disconnect from the chaos of life and reconnect to nature, yourself, your loved ones, and a little bit of magic.
We're just 5–10 minutes from some of the most beautiful springs in Florida—Ginnie, Poe, Blue, and Gilchrist Springs—perfect for swimming, tubing, paddling, or simply floating in crystal-clear water.
You can also:
Walk the land and see our early steps toward building a food forest
Watch the stars with minimal light pollution
Roast s’mores at your fire pit
Read, write, or nap on the deck surrounded by pine and oak trees
Explore local hiking and river trails nearby
Please note: This is a developing property! There are two tiny homes on the land, and we’re in the process of adding two geodomes soon. We are giving each dwelling a private corner of the land but it is possible to bump into others around or hear light work being done during the day as we continue shaping this into something special. The vibe is still quiet, spacious, and peaceful.
Expect a mix of comfort and rustic charm—this isn’t a hotel, but it’s clean, cozy, and full of heart. You may encounter some uneven ground, wild plants, or curious critters—it’s part of the off-grid magic.
Come experience the early energy of Soluna Springs. We hope you enjoy :)

We offer free boat parking at the campground. Do you prefer quiet evenings by a campfire? Would you rather do some hiking or kayaking at the numerous Springs?

More than 20 springs are located within 45 minutes of Steinhatchee.

Welcome to Soluna Springs -- an aspiring 6 acre magical plot of land surrounded by cedar and pine trees, and soon to be fruit forest + farm + retreat space designed to help you disconnect from the chaos of life and reconnect to nature, yourself, your loved ones, and a little bit of magic.
We're just 5–10 minutes from some of the most beautiful springs in Florida—Ginnie, Poe, Blue, and Gilchrist Springs—perfect for swimming, tubing, paddling, or simply floating in crystal-clear water.
You can also:
Walk the land and see our early steps toward building a food forest
Watch the stars with minimal light pollution
Roast s’mores at your fire pit
Read, write, or nap on the deck surrounded by pine and oak trees
Explore local hiking and river trails nearby
Please note: This is a developing property! There are two tiny homes on the land, and we’re in the process of adding two geodomes soon. We are giving each dwelling a private corner of the land but it is possible to bump into others around or hear light work being done during the day as we continue shaping this into something special. The vibe is still quiet, spacious, and peaceful.
Expect a mix of comfort and rustic charm—this isn’t a hotel, but it’s clean, cozy, and full of heart. You may encounter some uneven ground, wild plants, or curious critters—it’s part of the off-grid magic.
Come experience the early energy of Soluna Springs. We hope you enjoy :)

After five days of hotel stays with whirring AC systems, elevator sounds and weary staff members, it was BLISS to stay at Quartermoon Cottage and listen to owls as we sat around a campfire before slipping in to our four-poster bed after bidding goodnight to our incredible hosts. This was our third stay there and it won't be the last. Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Purradise Springs
Tent, bedding, heating, cooling included. It got down to 37 degrees. But we were comfortable. Now for the best part: there are over 100 cats that roam the camp, and they come and go from your tent as they please! We had about 6 cats in our tent at one point, and woke up to 3 cats still snuggling with us!

This cabin is spacious, warm and safe. We were in need of a place to stay. Stacey has many different options to pick from rent and RV spots to even a pioneer campsite. Now that's rad. We were also provided firewood that we were not charged for because it was raining. Stacey is a great host.

I loved our stay here! My daughter (7) and I were driving through and stayed over for the night before getting back on the road. What a great place to unwind. Our lodgings were so cute and cozy. In the evening we sat by fire and star gazed in the hammock. Some other folks were playing cards on the wrap around porch up at the house. A very welcome feel about the place. We spent the morning hanging out with the horses, feeding the chickens, wandering around the grounds, conversing with the parrot and playing games before getting on the road. Trudy was so kind. My daughter loved talking to Trudy and the other people visiting the farm.
