Our Secluded river cottage is the perfect place to escape to. Whether looking for a romantic getaway, A trip with the whole family or a fun time with friends, you will surely enjoy our little slice of nature.

Cozy up in front of the fireplace or gather around the outdoor fire pit during the colder months.

Lounge in the sun on the deck and jump in the river to cool off during the warmer months. 

Cook every meal outside if you want with the outdoor kitchen. Located on the ground floor you will find a kitchen sink, a propane grill and a charcoal grill with a nearby half bath to meet all your needs while cooking up food for the whole family. If cooking outside isn't your thing, don't worry. The fully stocked kitchen inside the house is well equipped for making large or small meals. 

Enjoy watching the abundant wildlife from the porch or go searching for it via the river or one of the nature trails in the surrounding area. 

If you want something outside of the wonderful natural feel of this home then there are several options for daytrips. Marianna, Dothan, Tallahassee and Panama City are all an hour or less away from this property and have lots to offer. Museums, arcades, puttputt, movie theaters and more.

This home is located directly on the bank of the Chipola River. The Lamb Eddy Landing is just a half mile away for putting in your boat. You can also travel just a bit further to one of the many other landings in the area (Johnny Boy Landing, etc.), and float the river straight up to the dock of the house.
