Relaxing Getaway off of Florida's St Johns River! | House in Astor

2 Bedroom House in Astor
This beautifully updated and modernized 2 bedroom/2 bathroom home is situated on a deep water canal right off the St. John’s River. We are surrounded by Florida's Ocala National Forest and our many beautiful springs. It's a fun retreat with plenty of activities available! Fishing is awesome! You can fish off the dock in the backyard, on Lake George, Lake Dexter, the St. Johns River or in our many creeks and springs. A photographer’s delight! You will find miles of hiking, and off -road vehicle and horse trails throughout the forest. Bring your boat, kayaks and canoes. We have room for your vehicles and trailers on the property. A public boat ramp is only 5 minutes away by road, 10-15 minutes by river. Hunt for deer and wild turkey in season. And in the off season, check out the pistol, rifle and skeet/trap shooting range in the forest. By the way, we are a golf cart community. Bikers, fishers and boaters are welcome!
This home is also within an hour to many of Central Florida’s attractions including Disney, Universal and the beaches on both coasts. And, within a few miles, you can dine at the newly renovated Drifters Bar & Grill (formerly Blackwater Inn), order pizza delivered from Pizza-Over-Yonder and have breakfast or lunch at the Rose Garden or Sparkys. If you want to eat in, groceries are available from the Triple Z market or the Dollar General Market.
Spend a long weekend, week, or the season with us. Whatever your indulgence, your comfort and privacy is our main concern.
