About this property

Gainesville Area Lakefront Home (Riley Lake) CANOE JONBOAT KAYAKS Unlimited Wifi

Perfect getaway to enjoy the sunsets on the lake each night. Would be perfect for snowbirds wanting to get away from the cold and snow in the north during the winter. Private lake where fishing is great. This is a wooded area and the house sits on 1.2 acres.

Canoe and paddles are onsite. There is also a jon boat with oars.
Roast marshmallows over a camp fire and eat either on the dock or the picnic table.

Enjoy swimming, fishing, and canoeing on a beautiful, private, spring-fed lake.
Disney World or the Orlando area attractions are about a 2 hour drive. Busch Gardens and other Tampa Bay area attractions are about a 2 hour drive.

Perfect relaxing weekend!
We could not have been happier with the whole experience. We rent 4 to 6 VRBO houses each year. Greg was hands down the best owner we have ever dealt with, and we have had some good ones in the past. House was exactly as described. The old pinball machines were awesome, ping pong table and tether ball were a blast. We caught a bunch 1 to 2lb bass and a pile of nice bluegill of the dock. We did not utilize the boats at all this time, as we just chilled on the property. We are already planning dates to bring the kids to Greg’s house, we will be back soon! Greg, thank you so much for the opportunity to enjoy your property!
