Fort McCoy Cabin | Lakefront Forest Getaway

2 Bedroom Cabin in Fort McCoy

Wonderful waterfront view, with Canal access to Lake Kerr. The property sits on a ¼ acre with large windows offering nice views of the water and sunsets. Deer, otter, and a variety of birdlife, including Sandhill cranes and hummingbirds are often visible. Recreational activities may include hiking, fishing, canoeing, boating and water skiing. Lake Kerr covers 2,830 acres of deep water roughly 2 miles by a mile wide. Shoreline unblemished by developers abounds.
The home is cozy, and comfortable. Sleeping arrangements include a bed and futon upstairs, or convertible couches downstairs. The kitchen is well equipped including a microwave and dish washer. Central air/heat keeps you comfortable, whatever the season. An upstairs balcony overlooks the lake and various board games are provided to fill in-between outdoor activities.
It’s a great weekend getaway within a few hours of Disney/Orlando, Tampa and Jacksonville! You can visit Historic St. Augustine, Daytona Beach, or attend a UF Gator game, all about an hour’s drive or, simply enjoy the forest, the quiet, the wildlife, and natural springs.
Salt Springs is nestled in the center of Ocala National Forest off SR 19, just West of Lake George, Florida’s 2nd largest lake. This is the area that inspired Marjorie Rawlings to write The Yearling, an academy award winning story about a boy who befriends an abandoned fawn.
Salt Springs offers two small restaurants, bait shop, grocery store, ice cream stand, Dollar General, and a Subway at the gas station. Palatka and Silver Springs are about 20-30 minutes away for shopping and golf. Nearby Mount Dora is a noted haven for artists and antique shops are salted around the community as well. Most weekends feature a flea market offering various regional souvenirs and goods.
Salt Springs is a great place, friendly people, easy to get to know!
