About this property

The Silver Springs Lakefront Cottage - with Canoe

  • Absolutely gorgeous, quaint & cozy house located on the amazing spring fed Lake Owen. Just renovated, brand new furniture throughout, everything is brand new. A must see lake house. The breeze off the deck is mesmerizing.

    This is a house that you really come to relax and enjoy family time. Fish, grill out, canoe or pedal boat. Everything you need is there other than a fishing pole.
    A brand new canoe is there for your use and a 2023 four seat pedal boat is included in your rental.

    Gas grill, picnic table, firepit and cornhole game is on site

    This Lakehouse is located only 1 block off of Hwy 40 for easy travel to many of Florida's natural springs, where the water is clear, cool and makes for great swimming and kayaking. Juniper Springs is 10 miles; Silver Springs is 15 miles; Silver Glen Springs is 20 miles, St. Johns River in Astor is 22 miles, Alexander Springs is 25 miles, Rainbow Springs is 38 miles, & it's only 15 miles to Ocala, & 60 miles to Daytona Beach.

Great little place

Traveled to the area to kayak Silver Springs. The property was close to the state park and offered a beautiful lake view of its own. Property was very clean and new décor, beds were very comfortable. Communicated with owners on a few occasions and found them very responsive and accommodating. Overall a great stay.

Great few days at this cute lakefront cottage!

We enjoyed our stay very much. This cottage is very nicely remodeled and we found everything we needed for our stay. The host has some nice extras to make your stay more enjoyable. The canoe and paddle boat were a hit with my teenage children (and husband). Beautiful lakefront view and very comfortable beds. We would definitely stay again.

Spacious and easy

This house was great-we were meeting up with extended family in the Ocala national forest, but needed more space. I loved the layout. There is a super separate, quiet comfy sun porch and the kitchen is far from the bedrooms (ideal with kids). Overall, loved it!

Beautiful Lake View

We really enjoyed our stay at the Silver Springs Lakefront cottage!!! It was super clean, was completely updated and had beautiful lake views. The owners were available with any questions or needs. The beds were very comfortable! They had a canoe and paddle boat to use on the lake. The only negative was the road noise but we "toned it out" and had a wonderful relaxing time!

All the Comforts of Home

We had everything we needed at the cottage to be very comfortable for the entire month and David was quick to respond when we reached out. It was great to have multiple outdoor sitting areas and ample space in the house with comfy beds. The lake view was wonderful, and we enjoyed frequent visits from the sandhill cranes and little blue herons.Thank you David and Darlene for creating such a wonderful space and sharing it with us.

The property looked like the pictures and was a great place to stay while we visited Ocala National Forest. The canoe and paddle boat were fun to take on the lake. The communication was slow and I was not able to get the key to the canoe the first night. Also after taking the sheets off the beds at the end of our stay we found a pee stain on one of the mattresses. I contacted the owner and they said they were ordering a new mattress right away and wondered why there was no mattress protector on the bed. Hopefully they are following through with that.

Perfect for spring break

We stayed at the cottage with our 2 kids and their friends (4 kids, ages 10-17) for our spring break. We live in a beach town and were looking for a Central-Florida experience away from the coast. The cottage was perfect for our group, with plenty of sleeping space and outdoor activities. We were able to paddle Silver Spring Run, hike and geocache in Salt Springs, and zip line go for a horseback trail ride at the Canyons. Despite our active, busy days, the kids ran to the lake as soon as we returned to the cottage to use the pedal boat, kayak and fish. The weather was perfect for a fire and s’mores at night. The host was responsive when we needed an early check in to avoid bad weather and was helpful throughout our stay. The only negative was road noise from the nearby highway, but it still felt like an escape to a peaceful lake. Great experience!

The property is nice and has space enough for a family. Loved the kitchen. Nice and bright and fully equipped. The views over the lake are relaxing. It is overall quiet. We had some small issues but the host responded fast and very pleasant to talk to.

Everything about our stay was very enjoyable. We loved the open floor plan and especially the windows with the view of the lake. The appliances, TV and fireplace were very nice. We could have used a dresser in the bedroom. The owner, Dave, was very responsive to any problems or questions we had during the weeks we were there. We had a wonderful stay.

Had a problem on our first night. Contacted David first thing next morning. He acted quickly to get the problem fixed within hours. The master bed is very high. I recommend short people bring a folding step stool. Helped us to get in and out easily. Once in the bed, it was very comfortable.The rest of the house is very well appointed. The deck view of the lake was fantastic! Nice and quiet and very relaxing.Recommend for a relaxing stay!

Cozy Cottage!

The property was adorable and clean. A great location if you are planning on exploring Silver Springs and Juniper Springs state parks. Right in the middle of both parks. Ocala was also close by with a great downtown area with lots of restaurants. We would book this home again.
