I loved the scenic views and the sounds of wildlife. The property is great for walking, scenic photos, and provides a peaceful retreat from everyday life. The treehouse has a wrap around porch with pretty views on all sides. I loved the campfire area with wide benches a cozy two seater rocker. The host, Dennis, was very kind and knowledgeable.

We went on a hike and fell in love with the beautiful bald cypress trees and roots

This place is amazing, it’s such a hidden gem. I wanted a quiet place to erase my mind since I have been working a lot lately, for three days I could connect my self with nature, have a quality time with my boyfriend with no screens. Just us, god and the little animals in the woods.

Dennis is very kind and did an amazing job building the cabins. The surrounding is so beautiful and quiet. We saw a lot of animals, even a big alligator in the pont near our house! The campfire place was awesome and we saw the most beautiful sunset. Definitely would recommend to spend a night in this wonderful place!

We had a fantastic time staying in Dennis’s “treehouse”. It’s a wonderful, rustic cabin. Very comfortable and clean. The property is beautiful, secluded and well maintained. We saw deer, turkey, gators, and many birds. We loved listening to the owls at night, and were lucky enough to get a late night rainstorm. We will definitely be back!

I wanted to take my mom who has cancer to a place where she could forget about her troubles. We were able to spend quality time together remember how healing it is to connect with nature. There was not much internet or cell service but it was exactly what we needed to disconnect from that world. This spot has everything needed to stay comfortable and relax.

Weekend Trip to Rasayana Cove

Wow! What a hidden gem! This entirely off-the-grid cabin is perfect if you’re looking to disconnect from the world. This beautiful cabin is nestled amongst the oak trees which provide plenty of shade. The property is surrounded by open prairies and cattle fields and it was so nice to wake up to the sounds of the cattle nearby. There is a creek that runs along the property, which makes for a nice evening stroll. Once the sun goes down, the forest comes alive and you can hear the owls calling out to eachother. Although this cabin is off-grid, I found the camping stove easy to use and was happy to see that basic cooking wares were provided. The host, Dennis, was kind and easy to communicate with. I appreciated that he came by the day of our arrival to make sure we were settling in ok. I look forward to coming back again in the cooler months and would definitely recommend this place!

We enjoyed our stay and the host is great. 2 nights was enough for us out in the wild, but it was a nice change from busy, coastal FL. It was exactly as expected, except the resident wildlife can be quite loud at night!

We loved our time Hipcamping here. The property is gorgeous and we heard so many barred owls each night. I’d love to come back again. We visited Myakka State Park nearby to botanize. Love this area!
