Placed worked out great. Exactly what we needed for a week of fishing the Suwannee. Great neighbors, great house.

The house was as advertised. Great location on a freshwater canal leading to the Suwanee River. Only a couple of local places around to access the gulf or salt water fish, but some very nice places for fishing and crabbing within 30 minutes. A very slow paced community, not crowded at all, if you’re looking for a nice, quiet get away with beautiful sunset views this is a good location.

We enjoyed our stay at the Sunny Side Up and found the house and location to be perfect. The only major downside was that there was in fact NO floating dock for you to tie your boat up to. Just the fixed deck which would normally have a floating portion attached to. If you take your boat, there is nothing to tie up to safely which could cause major issues if that is what you are expecting. There is literally no way up or down to your boat (even if you do attempt to tie it up depending on tide that is) the only way to get on the boat would be a dangerous drop or climb up on the side of the sea wall. My son is 10 and I didn’t want him doing it, it would be impossible with smaller children. All in all, we made it work and other than that issue we would consider this a perfect Suwannee rental house. The host was amazing and communicative.
Nice & peaceful! Kids enjoyed fishing and swimming in the river. The slide could use better stairs. But all in all great time, great place

We had a wonderful stay at the Sunny Side Up! This house was perfect for our family fishing trip! Convenient to the marina and canal. The house itself was beautifully decorated and spacious!! We will be back next year!
