Fort McCoy Cabin | Lakefront Forest Getaway

2 Bedroom Cabin in Fort McCoy

Wonderful waterfront view, with Canal access to Lake Kerr. The property sits on a ¼ acre with large windows offering nice views of the water and sunsets. Deer, otter, and a variety of birdlife, including Sandhill cranes and hummingbirds are often visible. Recreational activities may include hiking, fishing, canoeing, boating and water skiing. Lake Kerr covers 2,830 acres of deep water roughly 2 miles by a mile wide. Shoreline unblemished by developers abounds.
The home is cozy, and comfortable. Sleeping arrangements include a bed and futon upstairs, or convertible couches downstairs. The kitchen is well equipped including a microwave and dish washer. Central air/heat keeps you comfortable, whatever the season. An upstairs balcony overlooks the lake and various board games are provided to fill in-between outdoor activities.
It’s a great weekend getaway within a few hours of Disney/Orlando, Tampa and Jacksonville! You can visit Historic St. Augustine, Daytona Beach, or attend a UF Gator game, all about an hour’s drive or, simply enjoy the forest, the quiet, the wildlife, and natural springs.
Salt Springs is nestled in the center of Ocala National Forest off SR 19, just West of Lake George, Florida’s 2nd largest lake. This is the area that inspired Marjorie Rawlings to write The Yearling, an academy award winning story about a boy who befriends an abandoned fawn.
Salt Springs offers two small restaurants, bait shop, grocery store, ice cream stand, Dollar General, and a Subway at the gas station. Palatka and Silver Springs are about 20-30 minutes away for shopping and golf. Nearby Mount Dora is a noted haven for artists and antique shops are salted around the community as well. Most weekends feature a flea market offering various regional souvenirs and goods.
Salt Springs is a great place, friendly people, easy to get to know!

Summary: Very peaceful and relaxing. My husband is 6'5" so it was a bit of a challenge, but overall, i would highly recommend.

Summary: We really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and easy access to the lake. It was a treat to see some wildlife—two bears even walked through one evening, and we got to watch them safely from the large windows. Overall, it was a great stay. One note: the stairs to the upstairs area are very steep—almost vertical—so anyone with mobility concerns should keep that in mind.

Summary: This was my dream retirement experience . Nice cabin on the water where my son and I can drive our 4 wheelers from the cabin to the trails. Jessica and Dave are fantastic hosts. They were a quick message away to helping with all our needs. Can’t wait to go back for another trip.

Summary: Had a wonderful weekend at this fully stocked rustic little cabin. Kids loved catching minnows off the dock, roasting marshmallows in the fire pit and feeding the cranes who brought their 2 little babies. Great place to unplug for peace and quiet.

Summary: Great location for what we wanted. Very peaceful and quiet. If you are an older couple and get up to go to the bathroom at night, you cannot stay upstairs. Stairs are very dangerous. Need to do something different. Thank goodness weh had a friend that lived clode because my husband had to stay with him.
