We loved our stay. It was perfect for our needs. The place is clean and well kept. Property management responds quickly to questions. Super friendly and helpful!!
Beautiful home and property. The lake was perfect for fishing. Our property manager was very friendly. Perfect place if you’re trying to get away and just enjoy the outdoors.
We had a wonderful time. Loved the property! The fishing was fun and my granddaughter caught a lizard and tree frogs! She loved it. 17 minutes from Wild Adventures and we would love to stay again!
Love the property. Was so peaceful out on the dock while fishing. The house was lovely. We started a fire and sat around the fire pit most of weekend. We love our stay and will be returning.
This place was wonderful! It’s tucked enough away to enjoy the solitude, but not enough to make a run into town for things you need. This is a wonderful place to unwind and reset and Lisa, our host, had great communication with us! Everything was clean and had a very welcoming feel. This was the perfect place for us to get away from it all and just kick back. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much Lisa!
We went for a quick getaway for the New Year. This place did not disappoint!! Super quaint and secluded. The dock and the lake were serene! We took our cat and dog and they loved the property too! Plenty of things outdoors to do locally and we felt like we were the only ones around at the property! Highly recommend this place and we are already planning a week long summer trip back!!
If your looking for peace and quiet this is the place. The home is out of town and in the woods. Nothing but you, trees and a lake. The home is fully stocked with bedding options, bathing amenities, kitchen ware and multiple tv watching options. The owner is very friendly and quick to respond to messages. This home is definitely worth the money.
As a life long Floridian, it is a wonderful place to escape from an overcrowded Florida ... This reminds me of old Florida! Lisa is a awesome host! 3rd year back! If you are looking for amenities and frills then seek a resort elsewhere! If you are looking for peace, quiet and zen then ... You found the place!
Nice peaceful and quiet weekend away. Property was as advertised and the host. Lisa communicated with us back-and-forth any time that was necessary. The property itself was really nice, except for all the storm debris everywhere, but hard to be critical of that, considering they had a hurricane come through recently. Would definitely stay again, as it was exactly what we wanted quiet and no one around. thanks, Lisa
This property is a home away from home. Extremely remote and extremely quiet. The couch and the bed are both very comfortable and the host provides extra linens. We stayed here a week after Tropical Storm Debby went through so there were alot of trees down. Hosts moved all trees to property extremities but would like to return when all the debris is gone. The lake is private and has beautiful sunsets. No regular Tv, but host provides alot of DVDS to watch once the sun goes down. We took all our own food and never left the cabin..perfect escape
Title: Perfect Getaway: Our Stay in Pinetta's Cabin
Our stay at the quaint cabin in Pinetta, Florida, was outstanding. The property, set on 2 acres with a private pond and dock, offered a rare blend of privacy and comfort. The cabin was clean and well-equipped, ensuring a hassle-free experience.
The real highlight was the outdoor space. The serene pond and private dock were ideal for relaxation and soaking in nature's beauty. Its convenient location also allowed for easy exploration of the local area, though the peaceful environment often enticed us to stay in.
Overall, this cabin is a top choice for anyone seeking a straightforward, tranquil escape from the daily grind. A truly refreshing find.
My vision for my birthday was simple. I wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in the city. I wanted peace and quiet. I wanted seclusion. I wanted to go fishing. I got all of the above at this location. The property was nice and clean and it was exactly as advertised. Thank you to the owners for helping my 49th birthday come into fruition.
This is a charming place with a wilderness feel. You will receive unmatched refreshment and peace in this quiet spot. Pull a chair to the dock and enjoy gorgeous sunrises and ethereal sunsets. Take the canoe that is provided for a ride around the pond and check out the abundant lily pads or fish for bass. Didn’t see any gators, but surely there are a few around. There is a very nice fire pit in the yard and plenty of space for parking. The house is a bit rough around the edges, but it has air conditioning, hot water for showers, stove, refrigerator, microwave, and plenty of towels and linens. The host is also very responsive. There is a laundromat in nearby Madison as well as groceries and restaurants. We had a very nice time and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to get away from the hustle of life.
The owners description and photos were spot on, and I thank them for that! It's hard to describe a real cabin on a very large pond (although I would call it a small lake!) in a quiet location. The cabin is on 2 acres and the dock is a really nice size. It has the ambiance of your grandparents lakeside summer cabin updated with modern amenities like A/C, lots of hot water, Roku TV, great WiFi service. If you need to get any supplies, the Dollar General is 5 min away in the nice, clean, quiet town of Pinetta. We didn't go offsite to do tourist things so I can't elaborate on that. What I can say is if you truly want to get away from the hustle and bustle and not panic because of no wifi or streaming services you will like this place. The owners respond to your emails very quickly and they are very polite and generous. This would be a great place to visit for all 4 seasons.
