Photos and Description of the Dunnellon vacation house rental

Our house is about ½ mile from the head waters. You can enjoy a leisurely float down the Rainbow River from our house to the KP Hole county park and walk back. The KP Hole has a boat ramp for launching your boat as well as kayak and tube rentals. The house sits on the river on one acre which gives you plenty of room for a game of volley ball, touch foot ball, or just laying in the sun catching some rays. Have a picnic under the covered patio or cook some burgers on the grill. Our house is a two story house. The rental is for the down stairs. The down stairs has its own lock and so does the up stairs. The Florida room has windows facing the river and french doors to a patio. From the french doors to the beach is only about 50 feet. You and your friends will enjoy a private beach reserved exclusively for guests of Nana's River House. Our house has 2 bedrooms (queen in master and full/double in other) and 2 bathrooms with a living room, family room with futon, Florida room with futon, separate dinning room, and a eat-in kitchen. There is a carport that can double as patio.

We are St. Pete, FL residents, and Rainbow River is my 12 year old daughter's favorite destination. She and her friends love the pristine clear water, in which they swim, snorkel, kayak, and use dip nets and fishing rods to catch fish.

We splurged this year and took a group of her friends for an overnight stay at Nana's River House. The girls loved the house, and despite the cooler air temperature, they swam quite a bit. Everything was clean and very comfortable. We cooked out, had a campfire with s'mores, and rented kayaks at the KP Hole to supplement the ones we brought. The kitchen had all the necessities as well. The backyard going down to the river is also pretty and peaceful. The mist rising off the river in the morning is beautiful. This is "old Florida nature" at its best.

Juanita also provided very helpful information and answered all of our questions. We highly recommend Nana's River House!

We just returned home from having stayed at Nana's River House and had a most enjoyable time! The house is comfy and casual and perfect for vacation. Plenty of room for everyone. This spot on the river is one of my favorites - great area for swimming (and like one of the previous renter's said, Dave took us upriver on his boat and let us tube down through sandy bottom areas) and good location for an hour tube down to KP Hole. Pictures really do not do it justice - very nice white bottom area in front of the house where you can relax, swim, or just play around. Had a great time!!

From Pennsylvania and Oklamhoma to Florida they came. The house was clean, spacious, and met every need. Everyone from 12 to 62 years of age found it enjoyable. Relax out by the Rainbow or get adventurous and float down the river. What the heck, float down twice a day; we did. There was plenty of room for meals and the kitchen was big enough for all three "Mom's' to claim their own space. We would certainly recommend Nana's for family gatherings. Just being there made our's even more special.

Great location on the river. Private beach area. Room for my boat. The bass fishing was excellent. Swim and snorkle right from your own private steps to the river. We had such a great time on this property. We had some young kids stay for a couple of days and they loved it. The homeowner provided a nice clean house with all the necessary items for cooking and sleeping. So go pack your bags and bring your family to enjoy the river.

My family of four split this rental with another family of four. We had the best time! The home was very clean and had a nice warm feeling to it. I guess that is why they call it Nana's house. There was plenty of sleeping space and more than enough pillows and linens. The picture of Rainbow River on vrbo does not do it justice. The backyard has the most beautiful blue hole, perfect for swimming or snokeling. The owner's son owns the home next door and he runs a dive boat. He was kind enough to shuttle the kids up river, so they could tube down it futher and also give us a tour of the river showing us all the springs and caves. I have stayed at other places on the Rainbow River, but this was my favorite, it had the best location. Just a few hundred yards from the state park. You can jump on a float or just swim the river as I did right down to KP hole and it is just a short walk back to the property. In between nana's house and KP hole is the best part of the river. I know because I have went to the river 50+ times, it is sooo beautiful. The owner was not there when we stayed, but she was very kind and suggested some great local spots to check out and provided us with details of where to find anything we might need. The home was not only kid friendy having games, paints, and movies, but also kid safe. I would highly recommend this property to any family who would like to have the best time of their lives in beautiful natural Florida. This is Florida at it's best! We will be definitely staying here time and time again!
