Experience the magic of "Old Florida" at this unique hidden gem on the wild Little Manatee River. The other side of the river is the state park, and wildlife abounds: alligators, manatees, turtles, deer, hogs, hawks and pileated woodpeckers are common sights. Kayaking right from the house is super easy and beautiful. The house itself is very comfortable with two queen bedrooms and a pull-out sofa with a memory foam mattress. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking. The big screened porch is the best space to hang out. Outside there's a fire pit, hammock and swing. You feel far from everything, but it's only a ten minute drive to the commercial strip and the highway. This is a fantastic place for a romantic getaway or a fun family get-together. It's a natural wonder!

Located in Ruskin, this vacation home is in a rural area and on a river. Ruskin Family Drive-In and Florida Railroad Museum Willow Yard are cultural highlights, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Cypress Golf Club and Sandpiper Golf Club. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's happening at Sun City Center Community Tennis or Ellenton Ice and Sports Complex. Kayaking and motor boating offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with mountain biking and hiking nearby.
