This is the second time for my husband and me to stay at this resort. The rooms and grounds are kept in immaculate condition. The flowers are always gorgeous all around the property. The rooms face the river and have outside patios with umbrella tables and grills so that you can sit outdoors and enjoy the breeze in the evenings.... More

The river is so beautiful. we saw many types of birds: ospreys nesting, with chicks; wood storks - an entire rookery!; sand cranes; blue herons; white ibis; a bald eagle; turkey vultures, and more that I cannot...

My Wife and I stayed 3 nights at the resort and found all aspects of the experience above our expectations. Room size, room view and room cleanliness were all excellent. 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

We stayed in the newly remodeled 'Captains Suite' for 4 days. We brought our boat with us and enjoyed the convenience of a boat slip on the property.

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

Left the craziness of Orlando and headed "inland". So glad we did. What a wonderful place. Clean lovely rooms. Many amenities and a staff that is glad you are there. Wish we could have stayed all winter. Thank you Hontoon Landing!!
