If you’re looking for a quiet, peaceful place to stay, this is perfect. Close to shopping and trails. But far enough away to be private and secluded! Wonderful place to stay.
The property was excellent!! Loved the cabin- feel on the river. We saw lots of wildlife and enjoyed the serenity. Mark was the best host we could ask for! Would highly recommend this property.
Riverfront seclusion and beauty was relaxing and refreshing. Home is open and spacious with expansive view. Host was friendly and attentive, and Izzie the dog was a delight.
We had a wonderful stay at Marks River retreat! Views from the home are gorgeous and one of kind. Amazing quiet piece of property tucked minutes away from everything you could need. Definitely would stay again given the chance! Mark was very nice and Izzy is a wonderfully well behaved girl! Thanks for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!

Great location and view of the river.Nice and quiet place to relax and recup with nature and mother earth.The owners were in the property but were very respectful of our privacy and very accommodating to my needs. They even offered to take me upstream to the spring from where the river flows. If you are looking for a quiet, simple place to relax with nature, then this is your place!

Bucolic View on the Wekiva Riber
The home is situated on a large property. The house is what you see in the pictures on the site. Clean and neat. The views from chairs on the river are outstanding. The river and the preserve on the other side lend themselves to views of nature in a quiet setting. Saw some eagles!The screened in porch is comfortable and allows for unobstructed views of the river and preserve. Definitely will visit again.
