10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
This is an older property very close to Lake Jessup, and was very clean. Communication with the manager was excellent. Because of the extreme weather (rain and wind) we had a couple of technical glitches which were quickly resolved. Very friendly staff; we were personally invited to a Hula performance on the grounds! We didn’t eat at the restaurant this visit, but we have, several years ago. Don’t expect anything fancy; it’s a place to stay in the remote Black Hammock!

Relaxing stay in a cozy cottage conveniently located to many major attractions in the Orlando area. The washer and dryer are a great benefit. Kitchen was well stocked. Highly recommend using the discount provided by the host to try an airboat ride and the restaurant --both are awesome!!
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2024
Nice, older 2 bedroom home in a quiet neighborhood. Walking distance to Beach Hammock Airboat Rides (highly recommend this activity!) and Black Hammock Restaurant (very good food!). House is exactly as advertised and has a washer and dryer which is super convenient. Location was close to UCF, lots of dining options, and shopping. Less than an hour to Disney/Universal Studios. About an hour to Daytona Beach if you want to spend a day at the beach.
6 / 10Average·Mar 2026
No, nothing nearby you need to drive 10-15 minutes to get to Publix. Super secluded was only a restaurant bar behind it the was very loud after 11:00pm a lot of bikers. My weekend was not quiet at all.
