Cottage in Dunnellon

The Lakeside River House

The cottage lies on the banks of Lake Rousseau. This is a very interesting lake. The lake is fed by the crystal clear waters of the Rainbow Springs system and the dark tannin stained waters of the Withlacoochee River. Back in the 1930's, the water shed was dammed up on its far western edge. The result was a creation of a 12 mile long lake with a river twisting through the center, all of which you will enjoy from your waters edge dock. Come and enjoy the Nature Coast right from the backyard.

A single-story home is featured in the evening, highlighted by illuminated windows and decorative solar lights in the front garden. The inviting entryway is accentuated by colorful potted plants and a porch with chairs, set against a backdrop of a clear sky and a crescent moon.
