Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The house was spotless and we had the best sleep on their super comfortable bed. The view of the lake is serene and exactly what we needed for a long weekend getaway. Even in our Fla 100 degree heat, the breeze off the lake actually made it comfortable to sit outside on the deck. I can't say enough wonderful things about this amazing house. It was truly a restful, de-stressing visit. We checked out The Lodge in Wakulla Springs & got to see the beautiful campus of FSU. Thank you for a most awesome weekend!

Heather's home on Lake Talquin was a balm to our weary souls! She was easy to contact and easy to talk too. The house was clean and well stocked with bed, bath, kitchen necessities. Immediately we fell in love with the unobstructed view of Lake Talquin from the comfort of the Sunroom! The openness of the conjoined living room, dining room, kitchen with it's high ceiling was instantly appealing. Needless to say we loved the place! We enjoyed fishing, the wild life and the quietness of our 7 day life there. We would like to stay there again and recommend this hidden gym as an awesome getaway.
