There are many opportunities to break away from the daily grind. Whether it is family game night, hiking and/or biking at Highland State Park located just 3 miles away or fishing in any of the near by lakes. In the summer you can watch or photograph the fireflies as they float through the woods and observe or hear the wild turkeys, owls, herons, egrets and many other birds species. You’ll run into deers, land turtles, rabbits and squirrels but absolutely "NO HUNTING or SHOOTING ALLOWED". In the winter there is no better place than cuddled up in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine, a deck of cards and good company.

Cracker Hammock Cabin has 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, and a large porch to sit back and enjoy your morning coffee. This western cedar cabin nestled among old growth hardwood trees and grand oaks has a total area of approximately 3,000 sq. ft.

The downtown of Sebring is only a 15-minute drive and you’ll find plenty of local and franchise restaurants, shopping centers and a great mall for all your convenience needs.

Women's Retreat
We had a group of 9 women to spend time in nature and enjoy each other's company. We found the property to be perfect as it was very private, spacial and lots of wildlife. It's close to Highlands Hammock State Park and conveinent to get to stores but feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. I highly recommend it to nature lovers!

Great family get together spot.
Perfect for that family reunion. Sleeps plenty and is extremely comfortable. My only little negative is you hear everything in the house. It’s rustic for sure so no sound insulation whatsoever. So enjoy the outdoors, mosquitoes weren’t bad and it stayed cool under the huge oaks.

Please update the pictures.
I loved the weather, the trees, and the quiet. The property was beautiful, the house clean and comfortable. However there were a few things that I would change. The covered area seems to be a little more weathered in real life than in the pictures and the bathroom with the tub doesn’t let people know that it has an exterior entrance. Outside of that, I appreciated it and would stay again. The owner was very kind and check in was a breeze.

Authentic Florida Retreat
13 of my closest buddies piled in for a Groomsmen retreat / Team off site for our non profit org (Not a bachelor party). Absolutely loved this property. Hung out at the pole barn, perfect fire pit and the basketball hoop in the sand was super cool. 15 mins from town wasn't too bad but being ducked off in real Florida was exactly what we wanted. We drove an hour to take an airboat tour on peace river which was sick. Would highly reccomend!

Great location for family gathering
Plenty of space to spread out with a large group. Didn’t have to worry about noise or staying up late. Definitely need the bug spray and even then time was limited for the outdoor game space Great host communication. No surprises. Would rent again

Why they chose this property

This beautiful Cedar Log Cabin nestled in "OLD Florida Landscape" with Grandfather Oaks, Florida pines, Cypress trees and the pasture trail to the lily pond. Enjoy the view of the grass fed cows and horses provides that ranch experience. The rest of the property is kept in as natural condition as possible to encourage wildlife and offers great opportunities for nature photography "NO HUNTING or SHOOTING ALLOWED". We live in South Florida and this is our escape when we need unwinding, relaxing and family time. It also helps to remind us how beautiful Florida's nature is.

What makes this property unique

Where else are you going to find a property nestled in this peaceful country setting surrounded by hundreds of acres of "Old Florida Land" with a gated and private road to the property offering abundance of wildlife for site seeing and photographing but absolutely "NO HUNTING or SHOOTING ALLOWED". Perfect for reunion retreats, with large gathering areas, picnic tables and outdoor grill.
