This little place was perfect for me, I used to travel all over the world and my favorite places to stay were a combination of home/farmhouse/hostel and this was exactly that...loved it!

We really enjoyed the Heron House Unit 5 this past weekend. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. We'll look for this place again next year!

Spacious, clean, and comfortable little apartment. No forks in the kitchen, which was a bit weird. WiFi did not work in the evenings. Advertised screened-in back porch was cluttered and pretty unusable. Advertised included kayaking trip was unavailable and I was encouraged to instead pay for one at the local marina. Since the included kayaking was the main reason I was willing to pay this much, I was pretty disappointed. The listed hosts are the owners, who were not at the hotel. That made communication more complicated as there was a lot of back and forth between them and the actual hotel manager. She was lovely, friendly, and wanted to be helpful, but as she'd only been in Steinhatchee a month, she wasn't able to offer much local insight, which is one of the perks of going through AirBnB. Note that's not a criticism of her. I genuinely liked her. A general note about the town—the density of Confederate flags is very high in Steinhatchee. Not at all an issue at this hotel, but may be information about the town itself that you want to consider before traveling.

The apartment was so clean and homey - we had a lovely weekend enjoying the beautiful kayaking around Steinehatchee. Susan and Tom made our stay so comfortable - they even upgraded us to a larger apartment on the ground floor at no extra cost! Please try Kathi's Krab Shack for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Susan directed us there and we had a fantastic Low Country Boil- the owner Tom came and sat with us and told us about this fantastic area of old Florida. The food, service, and prices cannot be beat!

The place is quiet, clean, spacious, and quaint. Not a whole lot to do around unless you have a boat. My husband and I went to relax and enjoy peace and nature so it was fine. Tom, the resident handyman, was a delight. I feel compelled to mention that the area isn't real fond of city folk (hispanics) but this had nothing to do with Susan's lovely little house! It felt safe and comfortable.

It was a really nice and cozy and clean appartmnet. You can walk everywhere in town an Floyd and his wife are very considered and nice. We had to leave earlier and everybody was really helpful and accommodating. Thank you!

Great value for the price. The apartment was pretty clean and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of pots and pans and dishes. The walls are a bit thin, but the rooms seem to be laid out in a way to help minimize noise from adjacent units. The WiFi is too weak to do much more than email, but that's probably not a big deal if you're trying to relax and get away from it all. The onsite managers were very nice and helpful. This is a nice home away from home.

The appartment is well equipped, spacious and the airconditioning system works well. Check-in and -out work well. The appartment is also well located in the very pretty town Steinhattchee. Unfortunately, the appartment was not perfectly clean and I therefore felt somewhat uncomfortable.

A good stay if you need a place for the weekend.

Amazing day in Steinhatchee! My fiancé will be writing a song about this place and have it done asap! The golf cart we drove around all day made the experience even better! Crabbie Dads is great! We love the River Inn and will be back soon!

The Great River Inn fit my needs perfectly. I was touring the gulf coast on my motorcycle and it seemed like Steinhatchee would be a good spot to spend the night. It was. Very nice town. Beautiful views and good places to eat. The Great River Inn is a great value. It is clean, comfortable and in a great location. If it had been warmer, I would have taken advantage of the pool. Really enjoyed my stay.

It was a little dated but very clean and comfortable. We would stay again

The room was laid out perfect. Living room in front, nice king size bed in the bedroom. Clean as a whistle. Super affordable, and we were able to book just one night stay. It was absolutely perfect!

Booked this place for my dad and uncle. They said it was great and enjoyed their stay

Very nice place for the price. Much bigger room than expected.

The units were great and as expected. Had a great stay...

nice and spacious apartment in a quiet location.

Love staying with Floyd and Susan at the Heron House. Scalloping and Steinhatchee are amazing! Definitely recommend to anybody looking for reasonable prices and friendly owners.

Heron House - Apt 3 is a great setup. It's quiet, clean and close to the lake. You can also cook and take advantage of the fully stocked kitchen if you are there long enough.

The home is a good location, only a couple blocks up from the water. The back deck was a nice addition- especially during scallop season. The manager/owner were nice- present at check in and then not overly noticeable. The room was clean. Had most things that we needed- minus paper towels- but a quick trip to the store fixed that. Very good value for the money.

We enjoyed our stay very close to the docks and water. room to park the boat trailer and the room was well equipped.

Communication was speedy and care was taken to ensure satisfaction. The unit was well equipped for basic needs, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom was a good size and there were plenty of towels. The hotel was close to the river for an evening stroll or a quick fishing venture, and families may be interested to know that there was a community park within walking distance where the kids will find a playground. The fenced yard in back was great for our dog! Restaurants were a quick ride away (even by bike) and it was easy to do our own cooking in the kitchen as well. The area was very peaceful and quiet. We happened by on our way from point A to point B and are glad we did!

Nice apartment. Clean. Comfortable. Tiny town so you can't go wrong with the location. Unfortunately I didn't meet my hosts.

Had an awesome time at Theresa's house. Perfect for us, great location

Description was accurate and the property was clean! Very communicative host, seemed like she genuinely cared about our stay. The house is about 100 yards from seahag marina, ultra convenient for our boat rental. Would definitely rent again.

You can't beat the location. Theresa was very helpful and made sure we had everthing we needed. Would definately recommend this property.

Great accommodations, fair price and excellent communication!

Great place to stay near the public boat ramp.

One of the best places to stay best location. We will be back again next yr.

Great location, comfy beds, nice and clean.

Excellent time! Excellent location. Couldn't be happier with the villa!

It is a nice clean comfotable place.

Wonderful room!!

The listing was accurate to a tee. A nice clean place that was exactly as advertised. It was loaded with that "Gulf charm" that I grew up around.

Great affordable place to stay during scalloping season.

This was definitely off the beaten path! Not near anything really but in my case that was fine. I just needed a nice quiet place. A great little diner called Kathi's just down the road. I would come again if I'm traveling in the area. I think it would be a great place for hunters or fishermen.

Very clean room. Perfect for myself & two young daughters. Joey was very easy to get in touch with during our entire stay. Neighborhood was quiet and the unit is 1 block from the water.

Floyd and Hilda were so pleasant. It was an easy check-in. Wifi was very poor from our room, I was not able to use it. It was functional and meet our basic needs.

our stay in the heron house was by far the best experience at airbnb! the apartment was very clean and lovingly prepared. The idyllic location offers the perfect possibility for excursions: kayak or canoe. we can recommend anyone to stay here. especially floyd was very courteous and helpful. Thank you so much for everything!

This gem was amazing and perfect for our family. The kids loved the ping pong table. The set up was great and 5 stars for cleanliness. Anything that you need was only a short drive away.

House was very nice, close to several boat ramps and restaurants. Rooms and bathrooms were super nice. Highly recommend.

The house was perfect. Clean, comfortable, fun decor, and the ping pong table was an added bonus. Theresa was a joy to do business with. She answered all of my questions and was available if I need anything. We had a great time!

Hatchee House is a great escape! Perfect location, close to where all the action is in Steinhatchee. The house is well appointed and we had everything we needed for a much-needed family getaway! We will definitely be back!

The place was great with many extra amenities. It had lots of food/spices/and extras that allowed for an easy stay. It was spotless and comfortable.

The location was great, the home was about a mile from the boat ramp which was convenient for us. The house was super clean I loved it. Would recommend to our family and friends and would love to stay again.

The house was so cute. And super clean. Will definitely stay there again.

This home is very spacious, with a king and a queen bed. The couch isn't bad either to sleep on. We did wish that there was satellite for the tv's because of the rain we got on Sat we had to go sit at a restaurant to watch the game. She does provide you with a dvd and movies, though, but we wanted the game, lol. She's an excellent communicator before, during and after your stay and that was very heartfelt to us. Looking forward to staying there again soon. Christy and the gang

She was great we arrived in steinhatchee early at 1pm and let us check in early and everything else was perfect. Great location! Kitchen appliances!

Awesome Place - hope not too many people see what a great place this is. LOL WE Want to come back next year!!!!!

We had a wonderful time at Steinhatchee, and the house is convenient to everything. Roys and Crabbies are within walking distance and the Sea Hag Marina is just steps away which is great! The market is just down the road. Overall the house is well kept, clean and comfy. Although there is not a stove, there is a two burner you can plug in, so that was nice. In addition there are two grills and a microwave. I have no complaints whatsoever. Theresa also offered a golf cart rental too, so if you need one, ask her! She was very nice and responsive to our needs! I appreciated the early checkin and we will be back one day for another stay! Steinhatchee was awesome!

Theresa is a great host and goes out of her way to make sure your stay is great. Thank u.

Theresa was so fast to reply to my questions and was such a great host. The house was bigger than we had expected and it met our needs perfectly!

It was super easy. I never met Teresa in person and really didnt need to, the directions she gave were good and her response time was within minutes. Great front porch and open space for yard games. Big tv that had the Olympics and a strong a.c. unit for mid summer heat.

Very clean and quiet place to stay in Steinhatchee and located close to everything. Perfect villa for a family and the golf cart rental came in handy.

Great accommodations, fair price and excellent communication!

First off we stay in Steinhatchee every year and normally in a higher end place. The prices were about the same except this place has a dock on the river. First we asked if we could check in early and we were told yes, when we arrived I contacted "Fred" via text with the #provided and asked for the gate access code. I received a reply back"sorry can't talk right now." So we called the house keeper which gave us the code. The house is a hodge podge of themes ranging from old cabin decor, 1970s, to psychedelic underwater with signs posted everywhere not to smoke or directions that were not disclosed in the advertisiment on the poor water quality and pressure for washing clothes, bathing etc. The dock is in OK shape with nails that are starting to protrude and the screen is all torn so it's pointless. We made the kids wear shoes since there is no urgent cares within miles for a tetnus shot. Previous guest have dumped scallops all on the rocks so the area just looked trashy. The first night we lost power and we tried to call the electric company with the number provided but you can't access or report cause you don't have a acct #, full name, or associated ph# for the acct. So we attempted to get into with the owners it took them a while to respond so we contacted the poor housekeeper again and she was quick to help us out. When the wife finally contacted us via phone it felt like she was upset that we bothered her. The night prior to leaving I received a text at 1015 pm reminding us that we need to be out prior to 11am since we checked in early.....ok....yes ma'am I read that in the detailed instruction packet that was emailed to me. Would I stay at this place again? No I feel for the amount they charge for 3 nights is the same as one of the higher end places in the area and the house is very outdated for the costly amount. It needs a water filtration system and wouldn't hurt to redecorate in one theme, also new screens on the porch and dock area to keep the nats off. The dock also needs some upkeep more for safety reasons. The housekeeper was great and willing to help each time we needed her I hope they keep her around.

Such a great place for two couples. I could keep my boat on the dock, which saved a lot of time each day. The house was clean, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was great for cooking all the seafood we caught. We took a night cruise up the river one night and the stars were absolutely stunning! Milky way and all. No light pollution at all in that part of Florida. If you're looking for Florida mega resorts this is not the place. If you want to be in piece and quiet, and enjoy the beauty of old Florida, go to the shuck shack.

Had a wonderful time despite some boat troubles. Suzanne was great and provided much needed info about road into property. She responded to every question we asked immediatly. Wonderful host.

We really enjoyed our stay

We called Susan upon arrival and soon a resident manager welcomed us warmly and showed us to our room. He remained available for us throughout our stay and showed us on a map how to get to area restaurants. We were glad for the space available to us, the windows that opened, and the proximity to Fiddler's Restaurant which we could walk to!

Overall, the location is great. It's within walking distance to the River Haven Marina. There isn't much space for a boat trailer but we thankfully found a spot to park while not on the water. When we checked in, the host was incredibly friendly and I greatly appreciated how dog friendly the property is! I am very disappointed about the accuracy of the photos attached to room #7. It was not the same space and if I had known it would be different, I would have requested an even bigger apartment. Other than that discrepancy and being crammed and a bit uncomfortable. It's a nice little place.

This is a clean place in a neat little town. It is definitely a fishing town though. If your not into fishing, it may not peak your interest. No beach anywhere near!! The actual room was cute and cozy with a lot of amenities, and Tom was very down to earth and helpful.

Great location.

Place was very comfortable. Floyd was friendly and very helpful !!

Susan was very accommodating. Despite our late arrival we had no problems checking in and getting in touch with her. The apartment was big enough for all four of us and could even sleep more. Very quiet small town, great to rest and to get away from big city stress.

Everyting was awesome for us. We stayed at this house just for a night and everything was good. Thank you so much :)

We had a very brief stay but the owners were friendly and helpful.

A quiet little town with friendly people.a diamond in the rough.If your looking for a nice getaway from the hustle n bustle come for a visit.

Great experience. We spent the 4th of July weekend at the Heron House this year and were pleasantly surprised. From the beginning Joey the host was prompt to answer questions and be accommodating and helpful with our requests. The room was spacious and comfortable and the location was great! I look forward to coming back to Steinhatchee and staying there again.

It's was a very nice place. Once we found out to get into the room we had a really good time. We would come back for sure.

Clean comfy spot, short walk to the river and restaurants. We loved our stay in Steinhatchee!

Steinhatchee and the Heron House are good spots for fishermen and people who enjoy a rustic atmosphere. Our host, Tom, was very helpful about places to eat and get supplies.

We didn't even make it into the unit before tom the manager was upstairs and complaining that we "sounded like a bunch of horses". Then Friday night I was walking from the bedroom to the bathroom when I see him peeking in the window without knocking or making his presence known. A friend that was visiting us there opened the door to ask if he needed something and he complained that someone was running back and forth. Well that would be my 1 1/2 year old son. This is why I originally booked the floor unit. We were moved by management not because of a request for us. the walls are paper thin and unless I tied my child to a chair or something there would be no way to please him about the noise. The next day my child was napping and all I hear is someone directly under me arguing about a beer and being so loud that my child woke up from his nap. Every encounter with Tom was rude and the peeking in the window was completely inappropriate. I will not be staying here again because of this issue. The only good thing about the place was the price and location.

Great quiet spot ... Can't go wrong staying here

Good host. House is clean and provides most amenities. Perfect place for those going to fish or enjoy outdoor activities. The TV and fridge are old but function. Laundry facilities are outside the apartment but centrally located. One washer/one dryer $2 each for a load. We enjoyed our stay very much and will stay at Heron House again if we are back in Steinhatchee.

The house was perfect for my family and the owners were very helpful. Will be returning.

Nice fishing community. Washer and dryer aren't in the unit. If cockroaches freak you out ( it's not infested but you'll see 6 to 10 a day) I suggest you stay somewhere else. Overall a good value.

The house was nice and provided everything we needed! Joey was awesome; he was very responsive and informed. Something I wish I would have known is the closes beach is a drive and it is not what you typically think of when you think beach. This town is great for people who bring a boat and want to go scalloping.

Great unit, great price! Would rent again! Friendly, fast service!

the house was neat and clean. It has plenty of towels which is always a good thing. All in all I don't think there was any thing lacking for a one night stay.

Great place to stay! The wood deck outside was very relaxing to drink our morning coffee on! Would definitely stay again!

Convenient location near marina.
