Relax on a Beautiful River in a Natural Florida Setting

Would you like to visit a place where you have the chance to observe otters, squirrels, alligators, deer, raccoons, woodpeckers, blue herons, hummingbirds, cormorants, fish, and many other species of Florida wildlife in their natural habitats? And, you can do this from the comfort and safety of an observation deck or dock over the river.
If you prefer, you can just sit on the screened porch overlooking the beautiful St. Marks River and soak up the peaceful solitude of a completely unspoiled environment. As the sun goes down, you will be captivated by the rhythmic melodies of the frogs and crickets, guaranteed to soothe your soul.

Please note: for liability reasons, we do not provide boats of any kind You can rent them locally at TnT Hide-a-Way rentals on US98.

When you book a stay with us, we will send you a long list of places to visit and things to do such as Wakulla Springs and the St Marks National Wildlife Refuge. The Sceineyard

Most of the roads, ponds and levees in St. Marks NWR were originally built in the 1930’s by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), part of Roosevelt’s New Deal after the Great Depression. The ponds range from fresh water to salt, accommodating the many species of migratory birds passing through Florida’s Big Bend. We take several hikes around ponds to observatories and along the levees, marveling at the variety of grasses and wildflowers. Butterflies are everywhere, including the migratory monarchs passing through the NWR on their way to Mexico for the winter.

Toward the end of the Civil War, the area of St. Marks was strategically important to the Confederate Army for delivery of supplies and to the Union Army trying to capture the capital, Tallahassee. The Union regiment, which came ashore here at the Lighthouse, was repulsed at Natural Bridge (where the St. Marks River goes underground), but not before destroying several bridges and the salt factory, essential for preserving food for the Confederate troops.

Our cabin is a mere 4 miles from the Lewiswood Farm, a popular wedding venue, Mention you are having or attending an event at the farm for a discount in our rate.

Note: The Seineyard in Woodville was sold and is now the Driftwood. Have eaten there many times since changing ownership and it has been excellent. The Seineyard is still open in Crawfordville if you wish to drive closer to the coast.

Before we approve your pet, we must know your pet's breed, age and size and if he/she will be on good behavior if you have to leave him/her alone in the Retreat? A pet fee of $75 will be charged upon approval. Our concern is that your pet is safe and so is our Retreat.

To find out how our guests who have been on the tours enjoyed their trip, please read about them in our guest comments. Hope you will give them a call and take advantage of this special opportunity while staying at the Retreat. Happy paddling!!


Guest Comments

This is our second stay here and we know we will be back again. We so appreciate the beauty and natural setting of this place. In our two visits here, we have enjoyed seeing deer, owls (right outside our windows) and numerous Florida birds hanging out on the river.
Our hosts Floyd and Carolyn were attentive and available to our needs. The Driftwood restaurant (new name) in Woodville has definitely become one of our favorite places to eat (awesome food) and we make sure we visit it every time we are blessed enough to come back to visit.
Thank you Floyd and Carolyn for sharing your Retreat

This place is amazing! We have fallen in love with the breathtaking and extremely relaxing environment.
The jumping fish were hysterical! However, the cows walking in the river topped the fish. The house was perfect and had every thing we needed.
Thank you so much for an amazing weekend. We will be back!
Cory & Amber


Well, what can we say except the location was superb. The interior design is a testament to all your hard work and imagination. Spotlessly clean. So tranquil and relaxing sitting on the dock in the morning.
The beds are some of the most comfortable we have had the pleasure to sleep in. The nighttime chorus (of the crickets and frogs) is something we will always remember. Great fun trying to catch the uncooperative mullet in the river, but we did catch one at the Seineyard restaurant in Crawfordville and it was mind blowing.
So, Floyd and Carolyn, thank you very much for a wonderful Retreat.

What an awesome experience! Our accommodations were unsurpassable, and, to say the least, our trip was a success.
Now that we found you it goes without saying you’ll be stuck with us and our soon-to-be FSU student. We’ll be seeing you again.

We really enjoyed our stay at the St. Marks Retreat. We paddled our canoes on the St. Marks, Sopchoppy, Wacissa and Aucilla rivers. All lovely. Tons of birds, otters, alligators and turtles. We also went hiking at Leon Sinks and biking on the St. Marks Trail.
This cabin is delightful- quiet, peaceful and very clean. There are more rivers and trails to enjoy, so we will be back.

Floyd, it has been a pleasure meeting you and staying at the St. Marks Retreat. After working 11 years in the hotel industry, I have to say this is the cleanest and one of the best decorated properties I have ever seen. The nature and river next to the Retreat is good for mind, soul and body.
The St. Marks Retreat is the Best!

This was our first sort of wilderness vacation, and the Retreat didn’t let us down. Very serene and relaxing. Spotted a very large owl outside the cabin (approximately 2 ½ feet tall)- very wild and scruffy looking. We saw many deer on the road coming in and more up close in the wildlife refuge. We also spotted a black bear in the Apalachicola National Forest.
We enjoyed the good fresh seafood at the Seinyard Restaurant. The cabin was indeed clean, quaint and comfortable. The location and atmosphere proved to be the natural and relaxing stetting we desired.

What a wonderful vacation! This cabin is so cozy. Everything was clean and comfortable. We had a great honeymoon here.
Thank you for the fruit, snacks, coffee and hot chocolate. That was a nice treat. We will be back.
Take care and God bless you both.
Dustin & Naomi


What a lovely place. Everything was very nice. You’ve taken the time to make this a truly neat visit. Our children enjoyed netting the fish and playing in the water. Saw lots of birds, spiders, fish, deer. I even got up extra early just to enjoy the peaceful setting.
Enjoyed the surrounding area, Wakulla Springs (saw a manatee), the lighthouse, the town of St. Marks.
Thanks again. We will recommend this place, and we will be back. Our son says this is our new Florida home.

Thank you so much for this amazing experience. This was the best anniversary we have ever had. We saw all sorts of wildlife and relaxed more than we’ve been able to in a long time. We really look forward to coming back. We can’t thank you enough for everything.
Jessica & Terry

Thanks for letting us stay here for our 25th anniversary. The house is just the right size for us, and the surroundings are fabulous. We love this area. We even caught and ate scallops. We saw an abundance of wildlife.
Sincerely,
Liz, Mike & Jessica

Absolutely the most peaceful relaxing place on Earth. The cabin was a sanctuary for us visiting our college kid. It’s 30 mins from FSU and gave us a place to visit. The patio provided cool breeze and beautiful sunsets, even a peaceful nap. The kitchen was well equipped to provide home cooked meals for our daughter and she even made some cookies. We will for sure be back!

This cabin is beautiful for those who love the sound of nature with quiet, peace and relaxation. The screened in porch with a river view was our favorite spot. We sat on the dock every day watching for wild life. We got to see a little gator who loves to sit on the downed tree off the dock area. This is country setting not far from restaurants or Wakulla Springs but still far enough away to escape the city life. The property had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and the cabin is so quaint. We will definitely be back to do more exploring of the area. Carolyn was great at communicating with and was there if we had any questions. Thank you. A wonderful way to spend my husbands birthday!

The pictures don’t do this property justice!!!! The property owner is so caring and even called me to make sure we got in safely. We were in town for a funeral but we needed this property! It gave us such peace and solace in our time of sadness. We are originally from the area and were still in awe of the beautiful surroundings. It brought back memories of the great times I had on the St. Marks River. The decor was beautiful and fit the home. Nothing fancy, just lots of thoughtful things placed here and there. I am so glad we got to share this home. We are so thankful. This will be our go to every time we come home.

A Perfect Slice of Old Florida

We had such a wonderful stay at this peaceful riverfront home in St. Marks. My husband and I brought our two dogs and our kayaks, and it was the perfect spot to unwind. We launched right from the dock and paddled up the river—so much wildlife to enjoy! We even got to see a few manatees swimming by. The water was clear and beautiful, and it truly felt like old Florida—the way we remember it growing up. The screened-in porch quickly became our favorite place to sit, relax, and just watch the river drift by. It was quiet, comfortable, and exactly the getaway we needed. Highly recommend!

Perfect Peace

This place is exactly what it promises to be. It's a nature lover's paradise! The home itself is full of sweet charm. From the inside, it feels like living in a tree house. The OUTSIDE is the place to be, though. It's gorgeously situated. We practically lived between the dock and the porch. The hosts were so thoughtful, also. They left wine and chocolates for our anniversary! We'll definitely stay again if we come through the area. We didn't wanna leave at all!.

Fantastic environment

In terms of being immersed in nature, this is a great place to stay! The owls were amazing as were the consistent views of shore birds flying up and down the river. The screened in porch was a phenomenal area to spend time when raining, buggy or too hot out. We stayed cool, dry and bug free within it. Floyd's comical information binder was incredibly helpful. The proximity to St. Mark's allowed us tons of biking opportunities. The extras, like toilet paper, shampoo, lotions, etc were generous and appreciated. Despite its small size, the set up in the house we found very functional. One of the couches has sprung a spring so was uncomfortable but there is a second couch. Overall, we would definitely return.

This was our first trip after my brides cancer treatment. We wanted a place that was peaceful and didn't remind us of a doctors office. We honestly didn't want to leave! Paddling with manatees, eagles and swallowtail kites, catching suwannee bass and being serenaded to sleep by barred owls was just exactly what we needed. Such beauty in every direction, We will be back!!!

Beautiful, quiet spot on the river

We loved our stay at the Retreat! We spent Christmas week there and couldn't have been more pleased with the quiet, secluded location and the amenities the cabin offered. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals and because there was a warm spell we were able to enjoy dining on the screened porch while watching the river. Carolyn was very helpful with any questions we had and responded promptly.This area of Florida has so much to offer for the outdoors enthusiast and the Retreat is a short drive away from the amazing St Mark's Wildlife Refuge as well as various other outdoor activities. We've spent the past few holidays in this area and look forward to returning to the Retreat when we can.
