My husband and I vacation here every year with our family. I used to vacation here with my parents as a child. If you are used to the finer more classy way of living then this is definitely not for you. This is a place to go and relax. Get back to nature and a more simple way of life.... More

I wish I could have canceled my current plans as we love to fish! The rustic appeal was charming and reminds me of "Old Florida" upon inspection the rooms were clean and warm feeling. (much less than we were paying to stay over the bridge on the island) Bob, Edda are WONDERFUL and CARING to take in a friend in... More

Definitely fell for all the rave reviews. There are some rooms there that need some serious TLC!! I did see one decent room while there. The grounds also need a little TLC. It was not at all what I expected and I am planning on never going back there. And no, I am not some prissy sissy, just don't like... More

Recently stayed at Sportsmans for week and planning to return in October. Wife and I went to area in March for a couple of days of fishing with local guide. While the fishing was a bust due to the March winds the stay was a pleasant suprise. It was like a trip back in time to an "old Florida" fishing... More

What a beautful site it was, woke up one morning and stepped out on the balcony and to my surprise there... More

The Bering Sea has nothing on this place with it's gold and bickering and dysfunctional relationships. Meet Edda and her family and Miss Rose. Beautiful pristine place, clean comfortable rooms always more than you expected, family and MORE than reasonable!

Pay no attention to any other review of this establishment that is less than superb, awesome relaxing and great. FIVE hotels in a hundred miles. I have a kitchen, a nice clean room, close to everything there is to see and do. A great bed every time A/C heat and lots of hot water. A family owned and operated establishment... More

If your idea of travelling is finding some unique, interesting out of the way places..then this is the spot for you. I've been going there for at least ten years. I live in Tallahassee and it's only about an hour...maybe an hour and half away...and a great retreat for me. Why do I like it so much? 1) It's got... More
