We went on their Island Boat Cruise which was very clean and safe and so informative. We then rented one of their pontoon boats for a full day and even... More

20 some people from our local club stayed here for 4 nights. Rented the pontoon boats and had a great time. The staff couldn't have been nicer. Their master gardener does a fantastic job keeping the grounds in great shape. There is abundant wildlife including some overly friendly squirrels and many flitting hummingbirds. The boats were in good shape and... More

“A Little Bit of Old Florida”

Reviewed April 8, 2013

While calling this property a resort is a bit of a stretch, my room had been recently remodeled and had a very nice tiled shower. It is a very clean and updated property with attractive grounds. The setting on the St. Johns river is beautiful. The ferry to Hontoon Island State Park is within walking distance. You can rent boats... More

“Quiet and beautiful Florida”

Reviewed February 18, 2013

When the Holiday Inn in Orange City was charging ridiculous rates because the races were going on in Daytona, I decided to try something more unique for a weekend stay while visiting family. I grew up down the road from Hontoon Island but had never stayed at the marina. It was a really nice and relaxing experience. The folks in... More
