We enjoyed the house very much; very comfortable with different spaces and things to do for all ages.
The online details aren’t accurate be side there’s one of the bedrooms that we never saw, 16 people wouldn’t have fit; we were 10 and it was just the right size.

This was our second time staying here, and we would definitely recommend it. Plenty of room, great location, great hosts. We were able to park the boats in the water right behind the house with easy access for a day trip to Silver Glenn.

The property was very peaceful and accommodated our group nicely. There was plenty to do and my family really enjoyed being able to fish right off the dock. The only thing is the listing made it seem like there was another room, luckily not everyone was able to make it so it worked out. We would stay at this property again.

My family and I had an absolute blast during our stay here. The lodging was perfect for our large group. Very private. The large boat dock was perfect for our 2 boats. Loved the fire pit area. Overall very clean. We would definitely like to come back!

We do a trip to Lake George area every year with a group of friends. This year we came with a group of about 12. This house was PERFECT! Communication with the owners was wonderful. They always responded so fast and were so nice and always helpful. Arriving at the house was a breeze. We brought boats and the boat ramp is literally a mile or two away and not difficult to find at all. The house was decorated so cute. It was very clean. Well stocked too! There was enough space for everyone to spread out and have their own privacy if needed. We loved the game room area and played "left right center" dice game in there each night. Loved the outdoor areas. The balconies were so relaxing and much appreciated. The firepit area was great too. They even had cornhole boards available that we put to good use. The boat dock was so good! It was new. Actually, the pictures of the dock on here don't seem to be updated bc it looked brand new! Parking with this big group was a breeze. Plenty of it. Even with 3 boat trailers!
Thank you David and Kristie! We hope to stay at your special place again soon!

My youngest brother was about to start chemo for cancer & I thought he needed a change of scenery. There are many fishermen in our family and they fished, non stop for the time we were there! Caught lots of fish! Brim, Cats, Bass. Saw gators and manatee right from the dock! Some used the kayak to go down the canals. Rooms were very clean & plenty of room for everyone. I have stayed at many VRBO properties and this was the best all around! We will def be back in the future!

My extended family had a wonderful vacation in Astor. We have been coming for years up until the family sold its place. Renting this house was perfect for us. We rented boats and were able to park them outside! We fished and explored and went to Silver Glens springs!
The house was perfect for a large group. We definitely want to come back in the future!

Everything was great. Kayaks were good and kids fished alot. Breaker in bunkhouse bathroom kept popping. This made us share other bathromms but overall we loved it and will be staying again next year

We had enough room for all 15 of us adults. The 3 separate living spaces was more than adequate. The neighbors were awesome and so friendly. We came for bike week and the ride to and from was beautiful. Lots to do from fishing to campfires, corn hole, playing pool. We visited silver glen springs and it was a close drive. The beds were comfortable and the decor was great. You won’t be disappointed! We loved our stay.

Nice area, nice property, well managed
I love this area to boat St. John's and visit nearby springs. Simple but clean accommodations as represented. Every thing worked and entire rental process ran like clock work.

We enjoyed our stay at Pirate's Cove in Astor. The property is set up to have 3 separate living areas to give each family privacy if needed. The unit is pretty well stocked (expect a blender!) and has many extras to keep the kids occupied. Great parking for boat trailers (we had a 30ft and 35ft) and 4 trucks. The only 3 issues we saw were loose tiles in the downstairs bathroom, one of the sinks in the upstairs master did not drain, and the refrigerator's ice maker in the upstairs kitchen is not working correctly (half cubes of ice). We enjoyed 2 days at the springs, dinner at Drifters, and awesome pizza from "Over Yonder"! We are looking forward to another visit next year.

Upon arival i saw this amazing blender. When we tried to used it we found out it was broke. Not to big of an issue because the neigjolbors were cool and we borrowed theirs.
I loved cooking breakfast on the outside gas stovetop.
One thing that could have been better knowing that blackwater inn was not open. We were looking forward to that that because ive heard about it so much and never been.
Overall we all had a good time and if we ever make it back the the area would love to stay again

Pirates Cove was a great location for us to celebrate my dad's 80th birthday. There was ample space for all 10 family members. Loved the set up of space. The view was amazing. Games, and lots of things to keep people busy. The coffee keurigs on both floors was awesome. The outside tiki bar/kitchen was perfect for food set up for our party. Neighborhood is quiet and neighbors were great. Check in and out was simple and efficient. We will definitely consider this VRBO again for family gatherings. Just is always available and quick to help .. thank you SO much for sharing your river home with us!
