Here are a few of my favorite spots to visit (and eat!) while you’re here in beautiful High Springs:
🏞️ Springs & Outdoor Adventures
1. Gilchrist Blue Springs
One of the clearest and most scenic springs in the area. I highly recommend renting a paddleboard and spending the day exploring the spring run and river — it’s peaceful, beautiful, and a true Florida gem.
2. Ichetucknee Springs
About a 25-minute drive, but absolutely worth it. Float down the crystal-clear Ichetucknee River on a tube — it’s relaxing, fun, and one of the best ways to experience Florida’s natural beauty.
3. Poe Springs
A quieter spot that’s great for swimming, picnics, and a slower pace. Perfect for families or a peaceful afternoon in the water.
4. Ginnie Springs
Famous for its vibrant blue water and underwater caves. Great for swimming, snorkeling, or just lounging by the spring. It can get busy, but it’s definitely worth seeing at least once.

🍽️ Where to Eat
Spinwiches – A local favorite for sandwiches, wraps, and salads. Fresh and fast — perfect for lunch before hitting the springs.
The Great Outdoors – A charming spot with Southern-inspired meals, live music, and a cozy patio. Great for dinner or a relaxing night out.
Colsie’s Sweet Treats – A cozy bakery and coffee shop with amazing pastries, cookies, and espresso drinks. A perfect morning stop.
El Patio – Delicious and authentic Mexican food in the heart of town. Try the fajitas!
High Springs Brewing Company – A must-visit for craft beer lovers. Chill atmosphere, often with food trucks and live music.

Overall very nice. A few small details needed to be addressed and the property contact was very responsive. I would stay again

This is a very nice, cosy and convenient location to stay. I stayed there already for the third time and I will be coming back ;)

Close to Springs! Perfect place to stay if visiting the Springs nearby. We loved that the location was quite and perfect for our family of 6. I believe they had an air mattress but we brought one and had plenty of extra room in the extra large living room to set it up. Kitchen had all the pans, utensils and a few panty extras that helped make dinner each night work perfectly. Plenty of extra towels and sheets with a cozy beds. Very close to doller store (for last minute things missed) a publix and a very sweet downtown with shops.

This place is as advertised with a few caveats. The good things are its locations to the springs and Gainesville, and it is fine for sleep, showers, and had what we needed in the kitchen and for laundry. The a/c works well and the beds were decent enough. The negatives were that the living space is uncomfortable with the cheapest furniture available. The sofa recliner was broken on one side and wonky, and a kitchen chair is missing, so there were three, and we were a family of four. However, there were plastic outdoor chairs, so we used that. It's not what I'd call cozy due to the lack of comfortable seating, and it's just not a good place to hang out, but if you are going to be out and about mostly, for the price it's fine. There were also a fair amount of bugs. Considering it's in the woods in Florida, that's not too shocking, and I don't even mind most of them other than the German cockroaches, of which we saw two, but it's worth mentioning. The septic tank was also being worked on and was open, though the host warned us of that and we didn't spend time outside there so we just easily avoided it.
