Holiday rentals with a kayak in Dunnellon

We wanted to take a break from the city we live in and found a perfect retreat at this Airbnb. Located on a canal with a peaceful dock where we had our coffee in the morning. We had friendly turtle visits and a young gator that swam over when he saw us on the dock. We will definitely return in the near future.

A beautiful space on the Rainbow River, you won’t regret staying here! The home is lovely and comfortable and the location can’t be beat if you enjoy nature and privacy. We didn’t use the guest house for our family of 4 but if we had a slightly larger group it would be a great option to spread out. This is a space for quiet time and relaxation, not to be loud or to party, which we appreciated. We arrived on Memorial day and the river was busy but the rest of the stay there was less boat traffic, just a few casual tubers and kayakers floating by. It has lots of floats and water gear and we brought our own canoe which can easily be launched from the yard. We made some fantastic family memories swimming, fishing and cooking off of the back deck and would love to come back next summer! Thanks!

Sherry was awesome when it came to adding a few more kids on. . . the home was perfect as it was close to our relatives. We were able to spend time here also and enjoyed the space. Comfortable beds were a plus!!! We will definitely be back when we visit our relative and we have passed on the listing to all of our family for them to book when they come too!

Sunshine&Whiskey is a fully equipped peaceful getaway in Dunnellon, FL. Minutes from KP hole and the state park at Rainbow River, it was exactly what our family needed to have a relaxing and fun holiday! If you’re a paddler or outdoor enthusiast, this is your spot. This home is also close (roughly 30 minutes) to Devil’s Den and Cedar Lakes Woods & Garden botanical gardens. Check out Beautiful Creatures farm tour where you will not be disappointed, this is for kids & adults! Not to mention, the home was very clean, the host responsive and amenities galore! There are shampoo/body wash dispensers, charging ports on the bedside lamps and the kitchen had everything I needed to cook breakfast, lunch & dinner-multiple times. The backyard is fenced in and private, the pool lovely. The neighborhood is quiet and the back porch poolside is the place to be with a cup of tea or coffee at sunset and sunrise. Book Matt’s place now!

The place is everything that we expected and more. It was like a resort. Everyone had a great time.

Easy access to the River. Boat dock had plenty of room for my 26ft boat. Enjoyed having the pool and loved the layout of the house. This is a good home for a family or even if you have a few more guest with the split floor plan. The kitchen has plenty of counter space for everything,Enjoyed the stay. Thanks!

This house exceeded our expectations. It was beautiful, spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved enjoying the wildlife in the yard, taking the kayaks out on the river, relaxing around the firepit and using the hot tub. We ended our evenings cozy on the couch watching movies on the projector. Megan's guidebook had some great suggestions of places to go in the area and she responded very quickly every time I contacted her. I would definitely stay here again!

10 out of 10 would recommend! I have traveled all over the US and often utilize Airbnb and this is going down in the books as one of my favorite homes! The house itself is like a time capsule. Lots of antique furniture and nostalgic pieces of the past. But also super clean, comfortable and up-to-date. The amenities are also amazing! Everything was clean, well organized, and ready to use. The main river is about a 15 minute paddle, but it’s gorgeous. My kids said this might be one of their favorite vacations we’ve ever taken! The Neighbor kids even came over and joined us for a game of basketball. All of the neighbors seemed super friendly. The house is also well stocked with things like pans, dishes, silverware, extra blankets, pillows, etc. And sitting on the deck for morning, coffee and to relax in the evening is amazing. Communication with the host was easy and painless. We will most definitely be staying again!

Family of 5 (3 kids) and two dogs from VA. Felt the house was perfect with a great yard and cool trees. The dogs didn’t need leashed and could be at ease with pool access being safe. (My dogs can’t swim) The sheets were real cotton (this means a lot) and the beds were very comfortable. Plenty of bedding and pillow options. Kitchen had the basics to cook meals which was easier. The house had everything we needed to have a great vacation other than food to eat. Close to everything we wanted to do. A great trail that was not a commercialized walk where we saw armadillos, manatees, an alligator, bald eagles, snakes and we could hear two owls talking. It was perfection. The swing out back was a nice peaceful touch and I really appreciated the grill. We saw crystal clear water at three sisters while kayaking as well as dolphins at sunset. We took a boat cruise to an island and found more shells I’ve seen in my life. I’d come back again and again. No hoopla where tons of people were.

Highly recommend the apartment, nice backyard directly at the water. Beautifully renovated bath- and bedrooms. Well-equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook your own meals. Hosts were reachable and very supportive. Perfect for a weekend-escape into the green!

Nice little cottage tucked away and away from people very quiet and relaxing place charming cottage very clean and just big enough for two people Very easy process for our first air bnb and the owners were great to work with The yard was very nice for the dog he is older so it was just big enough for him to sniff. Location to get to things local is great and very good restaurants nearby Would recommend

We are so happy we chose Dardens cabin as our spot to reset and relax. We work a lot and rarely get a chance to take time for ourselves and we were definitely due. My favorite part was being able to sit in the screened in patio, read a book and enjoy the beautiful nature outside while my boyfriend cooked on the grill. This place did exactly what we needed it to do and would definitely come back again.

I don't know where to begin! This home is perfect for a getaway. It's cute, comfortable, in a nice quiet neighborhood and has the private dock. We were there almost two weeks and I could have stayed longer. We spent a lot of time on the screened in porch and out on the dock to do some fishing and just take in the local nature. Julie made recommendations on things to do in the area. Inverness is a very nice little city with about anything you can think of to do, not to mention the things to do within 30-60 mins. My bottom line is I highly recommend staying here! I bet you'll feel just like we did when we left.. sad it was time to go. But we will be back! :) Five star host!

From the moment we walked through the door, everything was just fantastic. Very clean, and exactly how the pictures looked. Nights sitting dockside was amazing, even with the Florida heat. the breeze from the lake just made it peaceful. Very quiet neighborhood. Highly recommend staying here

It was a cute clean home with all the extra stuff you may forget. It was great.

We always enjoy our time in Hernando! RuthAnn's place is comfortable, quiet, and peaceful. Thanks again for another great stay!

As advertised and quick response time. Thanks Amy!

This is a perfect spot for a peaceful weekend getaway and exploring in nature. A highlight of the stay was seeing all the wildlife on the Chassahowitzka River! This cabin was cozy, and felt like home. We appreciated amenities like board games, the grill and kayaks (& lifevests) which made the experience seamless. Make sure you bring your own mask and snorkel to make the most of this great spot with its very own river access!!

Beautiful Location. So peaceful and quiet. We really enjoyed the dock and outdoor space. Very clean and comfortable. We only enjoyed a short weekend but will definitely stay here next visit.

Very Beary Cabin provided a beautiful and relaxing break from reality. Nancy is probably the best host I have ever worked with. I spent a ton of time in the swing, on the dock listening to the birds and relaxing with the beautiful view of Crystal Lake. We would definitely return!

Slice of Heaven! Beautiful surroundings! Right on the lake with a dock! Everything was Perfect down the details! Hope to stay again!

Cutest cabin ever! The cabin decor was a treat witin itself. Cabin was comfy with ample room for 2. Our host was fabulous and our dig received a warm welcome as well. She was always available, stayed in contact, friendly and very accommodating. She even went so far as to get us a grill, hotplate, and a pan for our stay. I wasn't sure about the location on the property as it faced the restaurant with the parking lot outside the door, but the eye for detail in the landscaping made it feel private. Although the restaurant gets busy, it was relatively quiet. This a must stay for a lovely getaway.

Experience was perfect and exactly what my husband and I needed to get some R&R and peace away from the busy city. Lots of great fishin off the dock. Bluegill, gar, bowfin,catfish, and a wee baby alligator. Friendly people nearby and good food and live music at the restaurant across the street. We will definitely return.

You can’t beat the hospitality and the views. Perfect for small center consoles and bay boats. Cameron was friendly and very helpful would recommend this place to any scalloper or inshore fishermen.
