About Property

Escape to the serenity of Crane Hill Cottage, a stunning lakeside retreat in Interlachen, Florida, where adventure and relaxation meet. Whether you are looking to explore the waters or unwind by the shore, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort and nature.

The cottage features a thoughtful layout with 2 bedrooms, 2 beds, and 2 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 6 guests. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, featuring a king bed, a 50” TV, and a luxurious ensuite bathroom complete with a rain head and dual-head shower cave. The bunk room provides flexible sleeping with a queen-on-queen bunk bed, a 50” TV, and convenient charging ports for each guest. A second hall bath includes a tub/shower combination and Beekman bath products.

Inside, the open-concept living area is designed for coziness, featuring leather seating, an electric fireplace for cooler evenings, and a 55” Samsung Frame TV with Hulu. Music lovers will appreciate the Bluetooth record player that sets the mood. The fully equipped kitchen is a chef's delight with top-tier appliances, including an induction stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and a nugget ice maker. Enjoy your morning coffee at the dedicated Keurig station or share a meal at the 6-person dining table or the kitchen island, both offering beautiful lake views.

Outdoor living is where this property truly shines, featuring a 700-sq-ft paver patio with a cozy sectional, gas grill, outdoor dining for 6, and a refreshing outdoor shower. Relax in the hot tub for 6 or gather around the gas firepit in Adirondack chairs to roast s’mores under the stars. The 100-foot dock is perfect for kayaking and paddleboarding, while a neighborhood boat ramp next door provides easy water access for those bringing their own vessel.

Located on the 400-acre Lake Grandin with canal access to Lake Clearwater, the property is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. Keep an eye out for bald eagles, sandhill cranes, blue herons, and deer. Please note that due to current drought conditions, fishing from the dock is currently not possible.
