Getting here
We send exact directions after you book. The paved roads end at a Forest Service dirt road, and that last stretch has ruts, potholes and dips that fill with water after heavy rain. You'll need an SUV, pickup or van. Low-clearance cars can't make it. See Road Conditions for details. If you're towing a trailer, tell us when you book, because turnaround space is limited.
Before you arrive
The closest groceries are a small market in Astor, a Winn-Dixie on Highway 40, and Publix and The Hometown Market in Eustis. Cell coverage depends on your carrier, but the cabin has Wi-Fi and a guest phone with free calls.
