Fantastic stay
We stayed here for a little anniversary getaway. Fist let me say that the property is beautiful, and very well maintained. We stay in VRBO properties fairly regularly and unlike some other places that we have stayed, it feels like you are staying in a home that is loved and taken care of. The location is very quiet and peaceful, and is at the end of a road, so there is no traffic. The home is also well-stocked with everything that you might need. There is a lovely seating area downstairs with fire pit, hot tub and grill. There is also a selection of kayaks and a canoe. I would be remiss if I didn’t compliment the host. By far the best that we have dealt with. They were very helpful and quick to respond. We arrived during a flood, so our plans were a bit compromised, but they bent over backwards to make sure that we still had an enjoyable time. I can’t say enough about how much we appreciate them.

Eric, thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure hosting you! We love our guests and always ensure their experience is the best possible even with inclement weather conditions. We hope you come back again when the river is back to normal levels and you can fully experience the beautiful land and amenities during your stay at Camp Manatee!

Camp Manatee, what an experience!
We LOVED our stay here. It sits back on a dead end road and you truly feel separate from the rest of the world. The home was spotless when we arrived. Walking in you notice right away the view of the river that can be seen from the dining/living area, and master bedroom. They offered plenty of amenities in the bathroom which was an added bonus. The outside provides seating around a gas fireplace, and a dock where we did see a few otters floating by. We used the canoe and paddled to the nearby springs which are incredible. Overall we could not be more pleased with the communication and everything this home had to offer. Thank you for letting us bring our dogs! We will be back!

Great getaway weekend
We had an amazing stay at Camp Manatee!! The space was exceptionally clean and the location couldn’t be beat. The size of the house allowed for our group of 5 to be together when we wanted and have a little space when needed as well. My kids wore out one of our fishing rods casting morning and night from the dock. The only draw back I could offer was there is no boat ramp on the property nor access to the 3 rivers community areas without an increase in the rental fee, this made use of the advertised canoe/ kayaks difficult. However this was a great place to stay and would definitely recommend it.

Carolyn, Thank you for your feedback! We are very sorry that you felt your stay wasn't worth a 5 star review, however, as we indicated in our messages to you, access to the community ammenities are not advertised in our listing and as such are not typically available for guest's use. We did offer you access for a small fee, half of which would have been refunded to you upon return of the key at the end of your stay. This is the first time we have heard guests having a problem accessing the river with our kayaks from our dock and we would love to get more feedback on this from you. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to make it a 5 star stay for you and your guests if you decide to stay with us again in the future!! Happy travels! Best CAMP MANATEE
