'Lotus Point' Lake House Getaway on Four Rustic Acres

Find rest, relaxation, and tranquility at Lotus Point Lake House!

Escape to the lakeside and unwind in the natural beauty that awaits you at your two bedroom/two bath spacious cottage nestled in seclusion on four rustic acres. Three rocking chairs wait patiently for you to take in the beauty and calmness of Lake Consuela. Lay by the lake and listen to the sounds of the Florida country in a Chaise lounge or cozy up to a firepit with a lakeside view. Take the rowboat on the lake for a chance to see Lake Consuela in all her beauty. If you'd prefer 21st century comforts, kick back and relax inside the house with a Firestick and Wifi. This lovely 1,300 square foot cottage (located 12 miles west of I-75), can sleep up to 6 people.

The kitchen comes fully stocked with pots, pans, plates, utensils, a coffeemaker, and a dishwasher.

For fun on the lake, the property comes with a small fishing boat, two canoes, two kayaks, and a paddle boat (please see safety instructions below).

The Chassahowitzka River Campground is located 30 minutes from the property and offers you the opportunity to go biking, birding, hiking, or salt water fishing.

Peaceful and amazing
I came for a short solo get away. I found tranquility. The property is beautiful. The cottage and kitchen are stocked with anything you might need. The lake and the dock were delightful. I fully enjoyed the bird activity, the sunrises and the sunsets. The covered porch was a great place to read and write. The withlacoochee trail is within walking distance and I took advantage of it daily. I’ll be back.

Another great stay at Lotus Point
This is the third year we've spent 5 weeks at Lotus Point and it did not disappoint. We love the location, the privacy, and the great house. Easy access to the Withlacoochee Trail is what drew us here and we enjoy biking nearly every day. Dwight is attentive, friendly, and a great host. Highly recommended property!

Peaceful place to re-energize.
Our family had a great time! Loved having access to the kayaks and fishing equipment. Very relaxing sitting in the screened porch with a cup of coffee when the sun was coming up. Great little local shops, museums and restaurants near by. Pudgee's Eatery was great too.

Always Amazing
This was our fourth (maybe fifth) time at Lotus Lake and we love it just as much as ever. You immediately feel at peace as you stand at the age of the lake, or sit on the screened porch. We were there in August, so it was expectedly hot, and yet that didn't take away from the enjoyment at all. Can't wait to go back again another day!

Well-equipped lake cabin
Cozy, cute, on an incredibly beautiful location. It has EVERYTHING. Kitchen has every tool you need, there's fishing rods, boats, WiFi, Netflix, a screened in porch with rocking chairs, the hosts have thought of all of your needs and more. We will be returning whenever possible. Try breakfast at Robbin's Country Kitchen down the road!

Tranquil and secluded
This property absolutely exceeded our expectations - better than the pictures. Lovely cabin feel amidst clean and smartly remodeled comfort. The porch was awesome to take in the stunning view. Walking the property was filled with Florida fauna. Lots of birds, including 3 sandhill cranes than came right up to the porch to say hello. Food at the Shamrock (in town) was great. We hope go back!

Pleasantly surprised
This was a last minute booking just to get away so we didn't have a lot of expectations. We were all pleasantly surprised with the place. It was bigger than we thought it was going to be. The lake was beautiful and the fish were biting. It was also more secluded than we had expected. It truly felt like a weekend away. Definitely what we all needed.

Peaceful retreat
Great place to unplug, study the reflections on the lake, and listen to the sounds of nature from the back porch. Bring that recipe you've been wanting to try as the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need. The dock needs some work - so we were unable to fish. But the private setting make this a true "Old Florida" peaceful retreat. Thank you for sharing Lotus Point cottage. We plan to return.

Lotus Point
Our stay at Lotus Point was absolutely wonderful. The view is spectacular as you drive into the property and it continues from every side and front window of the house! The home was clean and the kitchen and bathrooms were well-stocked. We fished using the dock and boat provided. The weather was beautiful...we sunbathed, roasted marshmallows around a campfire, ate meals on the porch, and relaxed reading a good book from every corner of the property! Touring Floral City and eating at the Cafe and Art Museum were very special. Thank you for a wonderful time!

PERFECT GETAWAY!!!
Cabin and property were perfect, well stocked kitchen (except for a measuring cup, never found one but made it work) and he has thought of everything you may need!! It is definitely a hidden gem!! Dwight was great and responded quickly. We brought our dog and he absolutely loved the property and the lake, there has been a lot of rain lately so the lake was very full, almost over the dock, so we I tried and tried to make a fire but it was just too wet :( Nothing you can do about mother nature! Paddle boat was a lot of fun, even got the dog in a canoe!! Will absolutely stay again!!!!

Lotus Point Lakeside Cabin
We had such a memorable vacation at Lotus Point! 4 adults, 1 toddler and 2 doggos! The views were beautiful, the weather was awesome! We spent 90% of our time on the screened in patio. Dwight has thought of everything! From lawn games, to firewood, boats, fishing gear, kitchen utensils, etc! We wanted a low key weekend without too much of an agenda and this rental provided that for us! We would absolutely stay here again. The house was clean, well stocked, and rural! Dwight was easy to reach as we arrived after dark and had a hard time navigating the back country! He was super helpful! Highly recommend Lotus point for your family adventure or quiet getaway!

Time Away
This was the perfect place for us to enjoy some time away from the rush of everyday life. The view of the lake during the day is beautiful and the stars at night is breath taking. Our teenagers had no problem taking time away from electrinics and getting on the lake to fish or spending time playing board games and coloring on the porch. Our dogs who are seniors spent the whole day laying on the porch. Living their best life. We definately recommend this retreat and it is on our list to return.

Peaceful stay in real Florida
Appreciated the quiet, broken only by the Sand Hill Cranes and nightly frog chorus. The property is very natural with clipped areas for easy walking. We enjoyed day trips in the rural countryside along with stops in Inverness, Crystal River, Floral City and Beverly Hills. Good dining at Lollygagers and fine takeout from the Viet Deli. We are longtime Floridians missing this quieter life that is overrun by development nearer Tampa Bay.
