The Gator Den Motel

Pet safe fenced backyard on Withlacoochee River Kayaks Bikes internet provided

10/10 Excellent

"Would highly recommend. Beautiful turn key, pet friendly home away from home. The property is breathtaking and so peaceful you can hear yourself breathe. Watching the wildlife, kayaking and fishing off the dock was amazing. The hosts go above and beyond to make sure everything is well stocked and sparkling. Thank you Karen & Ed for your hospitality and sharing your home with us. See you soon!!"

Your ultimate weekend destination, La Fish Camp.

8/10 Good

"The home is small so if you have a large family like us, keep that in mind. The home is stocked with the essentials. If you are larger people like us, two of you will not sleep comfortably on the bed in the master bedroom. You also will not fit in the shower comfortably either. There are no curtains or shades on several windows which was a scary situation for my small children. The neighbors are extremely close and stay up very late so they are looking at you through the window every time someone gets up at night and turns the light on. The kids enjoyed fishing. The owners were quick to respond when the neighbors decided to pull an all nighter with a large fire in their yard on the second night."

Pet friendly free use of kayaks,bikes great dock and screen room fenced yard

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay. The house is well kept with soft clean towels and bed linens. There was all kinds of comfortable seating to choose from . The screen house and deck were the star of the show for us. We enjoyed sitting by the water and observing all that nature had to offer. The kayaks were ready to go and we just had to drop them in the water at the bottom of the ramp. It was a fantastic get away!"
