For those longing for adventure, the resort offers seamless access to a range of outdoor activities.

Rainbow River's Club is a great place to bring the fam and enjoy some time on the river. Renting their kayaks is the best option so you don't have to carry yours all the way to the river. Kind of a far walk. Or bring inflatable stuff so it's light. The pool is great, the staff is extremely helpful and friendly. We had some people find a couple different wasp nests and staff got rid of them quickly. Will definitely go back!

We stayed in cabin #8. It had everything we needed for our family of four. We also rented pontoon number 22. Heads up, bring enough pool noodles for everyone in your family. When swimming in the springs. We only had one, and that was not enough. There also wasn't a hair dryer if you can't live without one. The pathways are well maintained, and they have plenty of wagons available to haul your items to your cabin. We saw tons of wildlife, and the rocking chairs on the screened-in porch were fantastic for peaceful evenings. Bring games and enjoy time with your family.

The family and I were able to spend a few days here with my folks who are long time visitors, needless to say, we will be back. Real old Florida vibes in the cabins, love everything about this place. *Only improvement I could see, is having access to the club house in the evenings so folks can enjoy the pool/foosball tables in the evenings.

"My son and I stayed for 2 nights in cabin #8, and we had a great time. The cabin, staff, and the surroundings were all perfectly in tune with the charm of old Florida. It’s the kind of place where you can escape, unplug, and reconnect with nature—away from the chaos of daily life. Honestly, I’m a little hesitant to leave a review because I don’t want to give away this hidden gem. But if you're looking for a peaceful retreat, this place is it. Tip: If you don’t have your own boat, rent one of their pontoon boats for a cruise up the Rainbow River—it’s a great way to explore this beautiful spot!"
