Wakulla River Wasserfront Rückzugsort

This Wakulla River Waterfront home is a nature lover's paradise. While the homeowners live in this home 9 months of the year, it is offered for short periods of time to those lucky enough to snap it up a few weeks each year.

Nestled on a long, narrow 2-acre lot, the property sits on a wooded lot with a dock that overlooks the beautiful Wakulla River. Only steps away from the private dock to this spring-fed river, you will likely want to book year after year! Grab a kayak and paddle out during sunrise or sunset to float these refreshing mystical waters. Or bring your binoculars and be on the lookout for wildlife from the comfort of the porch swing on the dock. From time to time, you will see manatees, otters, Bald Eagles and Osprey, Suwannee Cooter turtles, and a myriad of other birds as well as boaters who cruise the river. Swim the refreshing waters right in front of the dock. When the tide is going out, the river is swift, and swimming in place makes for great exercise!

While in the area, visit one of several parks that are just a quick10-15 minute drive. Visit the Wakulla River spring-head in Wakulla Springs State Park, the 2nd largest of its kind in the world. Travel back in time on waters used in Tarzan and Creature of the Black Lagoon films. Have lunch or dinner in the lodge or enjoy an ice cream float or a milkshake at the ice cream bar in the lodge gift shop after venturing out on one of the hour-long boat tours that are offered within the park. Hike, bike, or drive through the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge to witness the untamed Florida landscape as it was before the sprawl of urban development forever changed much of this beautiful state. Finally make a day of it at the beach if squeezing your toes in the sand makes for a perfect day for you- Alligator Point is just a 30-minute drive from this waterfront home, or visit Apalachicola and St. George Island, just an hour and a half drive!

Whatever your idea of paradise, this part of Florida offers something for everyone!
