Bell, Fl 3/2 home on Suwannee w/boat ramp
Bring your boat and slide right into the Suwannee River from your back door and cruise up and down the river looking for a good place to fish or a beautiful blue cold water spring to cool off. The lodging is a very comfortable 3 bedroom 2 bath mobile home on 5 acres on the river bank - very quiet except when you are on the dock and a big boat motors by. The house is fully furnished with all linens, kitchen utensils, soaps and paper products. TV is ROKU on 55 inch screen. Wi-Fi available.
Not many neighbors in the hood - NW 50 Terrace is lined with houses that are on the river. Most residents are working or retired - a few children but mostly adults. Very quiet, no one will be knocking on your door. There are no side walks or walking paths - just some scrub oaks, palmetto bushes and the river. No night clubs or bars. Closest church is five miles away. One (and only) restaurant in Bell is Akins - be sure to go there if you want some really good Southern cooking. Grocery store in Bell is Sun Stop - used to be Scags Grocery. They have really good home made sausage. Try it with some grits. You will love it. If you don’t bring a boat and want to visit a great springs, Hart Springs is between Bell and Trenton. It is managed by Gilchrist County. Take your own towels. Used to be free but may charge a small admission fee now. Bring your own fishing gear - buy bait in Bell. Clean your fish on the table by the dock - faucet is very close for your convenience. Don’t leave those fish heads on the ground - never know what might come at night to eat them. Bag them in a plastic baggie (just like you would at home) and put in the garbage can for pick up by Waste Pro on Wednesdays. PLEASE fly your fish on the grill in patio or the gas cooker by the river. As we all know, cooking fish inside leaves an odor that you won’t enjoy with your next meal. We hope you enjoy your stay here and will come again. Hide

Quiet and comfortable
We went to this location because it was close to our family which was in Bell. It was quiet and comfortable.
We brought our pet which loved the yard.

Incredible stay, great hosts
We have stayed in numerous rentals over the years but none had the amenities of this river house. The hosts go above and beyond to supply everything needed and are quick to address any issues. We discovered that the coffee maker cord had a short in it and within a few hours of messaging Cindy we had a new coffee maker as well as a kettle. There are more than enough linens and towels and the laundry room was also fully equipped. The dock over the river was marvelous too.

Beautiful view.
House was clean, beds were super comfortable. AC was great. Wifi was spotty at times, I am sure due to location. Home could use few upgrades, nothing a deal breaker. Host was helpful. Definitely recommend.

Pleasant experience.
We were only there at night because we stayed with family during the day.
The A/C worked great. It was a pleasant experience for us.

Great Property, Great Area, Great Time
Only downfall was smell of the comforter, which we just removed, and faint smell of smoke. Other than that the property was AMAZING

Summer getaway
Great place to kick back and relax. 5* boat ramp and launch ability. The deck over the river is safe and shaded through the hot part of the day. Great fenced in yard plenty of running room for your dog. Definitely ready to go back. Thank you.

Nice clean river cabin
We didn’t get a chance to use all the amenities. Next time will have more time for boating. The private boat ramp is a big plus.
