We have camped here for several years. Each year we noticed the un welcoming of the property. Before there were people all around welcoming, helping with anything you needed. Now it’s just Roy and his helper. It’s like us staying there we were left to fend for ourself, but the marina is where ALL the attention is focused on. ROY however is AWESOME, HE IS WHAT KEPT US POSITIVE!!!! To check in a camp site you want me to drive my rig to the marina, park check in then go back? No ice, no gas, no small anything to purchase at the campground / cabins. Not even a T-shirt!! Our whole group and others who stayed noticed that ALL the focus is on the marina and not on the grounds!!! This was probably our last time staying here. Long time campers here and won’t be back.

Stayed at its cabin#2 for a week with family as our fishing trip at Steinhatchee. We all had a great time here especially during the off-season time. Fishing was excellence. The cabin and its community amenities such as the dock and cleaning station are clean and well maintained. We were able to dock our boat overnight and clean up our catches of the day after. One of the downsides was the kitchen that it needs to equip with more cooking tools and pots with lids. My mom had a difficult time to get the water to boil due to there was no lid for the pot. During our stay, we would like to particularly thanks the maintenance guy, Roy, for his hospitality. Roy is a super-friendly, passionate, welcomed, helpful, and down-to-earth person. He gave us a lot of fishing recommendation and offered help whenever we need him. Would definitely return there soon.

Very boater friendly. Friendly staff. Blonde lady at office was great and Roy the maintenance man was friendly too. Loved the cabin… except the bedroom AC unit blasts the person on that side of the bed and you freeze, then it shuts off you get hot… blows so hard when you pull up the sheet it takes off like a parachute! Not adjustable either. Hard to sleep. Kids did better in loft. Still a great stay but sleeping was tough (no measuring cups either but not a huge deal).

We booked a seven day fishing getaway at Steinhatchee River Club for the first week of March. The website reviews showed very clean and comfortable cabins so I booked. The website was dead on. The cabin was extremely clean, omfortable and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and approachable. The boat that we rented was exactly what we needed for fishing in the area. The place was really, really quite while we were there; slightly off-season. Perfect for a family getaway. We would return and stay here again if the opportunity arises.

We just recently stayed here. Our cabin was super clean and had all basic amenities to be able to cook homemade meals which is a huge plus. The boat ramp was perfect for loading and unloading our boat. The dock had cameras to help keep your belongings safe! TONS of trailer and vehicle parking. It was close to town. Staff was incredibly helpful and friendly! We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend for others to book!
