Stunning stay
Absolutely gorgeous place! From the tents, yurts to the cabins all accommodations are amazing. Very pet friendly. The hosts were responsive and attentive. If you want a relaxing get away to be yourself amongst loving people this is the place for you. We will most definitely be back!

So blessed!
Runaway Bay Lodge will now be a part of my monthly/bi monthly rejuvenation process. I have a pretty intense job where I am constantly pouring into other's glasses. I came solely to celebrate my birthday individually and have left with a sacred space to leave recalibrated and rejuvenated to continue thriving professionally. If you are looking for a magical, wondrous land and experience, this is the place. Just in 2 days I had the opportunity to meet such beautiful people. My glass has overflown and I am so blessed to have found this space. Thank you so much Christina and Kennedy for such amazing hospitality and connection <3 Look forward to returning soon.

Yurt
Overall a great venue for sunsets and relaxing…can be chilly so bring extra blanket/towels. Everyone in the complex was friendly including the hosts..This is a ceiling vented Yurt… it was rainy and temps dropped at night… I was appreciative of the blanket and heater that was provided…it was close to kitchen/bar/gathering area… but noise was never a issue.

What a perfect place to gather with your loved ones. A lot to enjoy within the property including a breathtaking view of the lake. Kennedy was very welcoming and hospitable. Our first yurt experience was a success.

Kennedy's land was unique and so peaceful. Be sure to watch each sunrise and sunset from the deck. My dog, Checkers, felt welcome and at home while relaxing next to the lake.

We stayed in one of the cabins and it was very peaceful and relaxing. Christina and Kennedy are amazing people and are so welcoming and inviting. We did the the extra add ons and it was definitely an unique experience. We will be back to enjoy more of the property after the baby is born. If you’re looking for a relaxing, laid back adventure, this place is a must!! It is a judgment free zone, so come as your are !!

A place to leave all worries behind and fully recharge. Amazingly located right on the lake, we had awesome time. We spotted an alligator and some flying fish. The hosts are amazing and cooked a delicious dinner (my son finished the whole salad plate, which never happened before). The site has all amenities one would need.

Absolutely amazing Kennedy was very kind and accommodating. The area was so quiet and quaint. The energy and vibes where amazing. The other guest so nice too. Beautiful views wildlife and great surroundings. He was very accommodating on my little service dog. We are already booking our next visit thanks. This is a must do in Florida

Beautiful view, not what I expected
The positives: Beautiful view. Felt like we were in a bay near the ocean. Watching the sunset and listening to the small waves was relaxing. The kitchen and room had everything we needed. The tiki bar area offered a lot of activities and options. We ended up watching one of the DVDs from there in our room. We didn’t end up using a kayak but were glad they were available. Lots of places to sit. The dock offered a place to fish. We also were happy to take advantage of the hot tub. Negatives: This place has a ton of potential and maybe it was in a better state as some point but it could use some repair and upkeep. The photos in the listing are very nice but didn’t quite match up with the state of the place. The “beautiful decay” style was cool but taken a bit far. Rotting wood in the deck and buildings and holes in screens etc. I was by no means expecting luxury and generally appreciate a wild, rustic environment. The inside and outside areas could have been cleaner. The cabin did have a mildew smell and faint smoke smell in the cabin. The bed linens smelled strongly of detergent fragrance. The floor just inside the front door was squishy in a spot and felt like it could fall through. Most concerning is that it is both clothing optional AND has cameras in places where guests would be hanging out (nude). There are also signs about audio surveillance on the premises. We noticed these signs upon arrival. I understand having cameras near the entrance but… Hopefully this helps

Laid back, unique, fantastic hosts
What a great weekend getaway. Peaceful lake views. Kennedy and his wife couldn’t have been more pleasant and accommodating. They have a great vibe, and it translates to their cabins. We hung out by the fire pit, did karaoke in the bar area, and chose the dinner option, which I would strongly recommend. Kennedy’s wife makes excellent jerk chicken. Wonderful spot for a laid back and unique weekend, and fantastic hosts!

Lakeside cabin serenity
This cabin is so beautifully situated! Lakeside mornings with coffee (especially when the breeze picks up and keeps the summer bugs away), gorgeous hot tub sunset views, and intentional space! We stayed in the yurt previously, and really appreciated the AC respite of the cabin this time around in the summer heat. We had the place to ourselves and it was so serene. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Great couple's getaway! Lakefront property with a gameroom/bar, fishing poles & kayaking available. The hosts are wonderful, they dont live on site so you have privacy yet a phone call away if you need them. Be sure to ask about their Spa/Wellness services. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a refreshing weekend. Tiffany

My partner and I love this spot. Lakefront sunset views, wildlife all around, cute little kitchenette setup, lots of cool shared spaces around the place, a fabulous hot tub, and ultimately a spot cared for with a lot of love by Kennedy & Christina with a lovely history. If you're into all that, come! We loved the yurt we stayed in which was perfectly adorned, but if you want a cabin they have those too. What a special place! We will surely be back

Explore away from it all
My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. The campsite was lovely and comfortable and Kennedy and Christina have a million different talents that they offer on-site to add some self-discovery into your experience. They are a unique couple and will make your stay unique as well! Loved watching sunsets in the hot-tub, enjoying the outdoor and indoor showers and kayaking over the beautiful Lake George. Plenty of springs and nature trails in the area to add to your experience.

Not private but great owners
This is a personal lake house, It's a shared property with a lake house and 2 tents that may be rented out as well and lots of gators and snakes. The dock is very weak, some parts of the deck as well so be careful. So if you don't mind sharing a small space and minimum service then it's great, my boys ( 7,15,15 ) actually liked it though. The owners are very nice however the lady owner went above and beyond. We booked Thurs-Sunday however we ended up leaving Saturday instead.

We loved Runaway Bay! Christina, Kennedy and Shiloh were extremely friendly and we enjoyed hanging out with them and other guests at the tiki bar. Our cabin was very comfortable. If you want a laid back vacation, come here. If you expect a 5 star ritzy hotel, look elsewhere.

Coolest Lakefront FL Property!
This land was incredibly remote, unique, and beautiful. The owners have relationships with their neighbors and fellow community members and personally connect you with them for things like the wildlife tour or other things. This place is for those that enjoy the simple things and are looking to release themselves from societal expectations and enter a space of acceptance that appreciates wellness and exploration.
