About this property

Rainbow River Home - Directly on Main Dive Springs

YOU MUST ENTER AN ACCURATE GROUP COUNT TO RESERVE!!!! Our 3000s.f. home sits on 3.8 acres DIRECTLY ON THE MAIN DIVE SPRINGS of the crystal clear Rainbow River! The absolute premiere location on the river! Why? Check the map! We are UPRIVER of the KP Hole - the county park where thousands of tubers (and boaters) enter the river and float downstream. We are on the widest upriver section with numerous deep springs located directly off the backyard! Swim, snorkel, scuba dive or kayak in peace without massive congestion. Kayak 1 mile upriver to the head springs and state park - the most pristine and preserved section of the river - and then float back to the house. The head springs and first 1700 feet of the river prohibit motorized vessels, anchoring, fishing, tubing and diving, so kayakers are treated with the most abundant experience of wildlife, native vegetation and crystal clear water anywhere on the river! Or, tube about 1/2 mile to the KP Hole and walk back to the house. Of course, the adventurous can still jump in the river with tubes for the 4 hour float downriver to Swampy's Restaurant at the bridge take-out.

Stay with us and avoid the costs of renting kayaks and tubes, transportation fees and park entrance fees (not to mention waiting in long, hot lines for hours). Perfect for family reunions and other gatherings. Four large bedrooms contain enough beds to sleep 20 (4 Queens, 12 twins). Only a 3-night minimum. Use of 20 single-person kayaks, 3 paddle boards and 10 tubes included at no charge!

Exceeded Expectations
Great Property, has all the details. Rainbow River is great, it’s just amazing. I rented good properties on this river and bad ones. Always had a good time because the river is so amazing. This property is a really good one, great for 4 families w kids (boys), house is great, they thought of and provided everything you need. The property is huge and the location and launch point is awesome. Owner and staff very responsive. I wish all vrbo owners had it together like this.

Small sibling reunion
My sister's and brothers flew in to help wish my mother a happy 73rd birthday! I had booked the property with plenty of room for all five families. It ended up being primarily the siblings (no kids) and we had an awesome time! Beautiful property and an amazing spring. If I had to do it all again I'd made sure all the kids could come and enjoy! An Absolutely amazing experience!
