Cabin-like facilities with porches for sitting. Clean, but worn flooring. Live music from the bar on the property late into the night.

Good place to stay.

The room has basic amenities and was comfortable. Given the area is still recovering from the previous hurricane, the owners have made sure that those visiting have what they need. My only concern is not having a second lock (latch) that was not part of the digital main lock.

Property was not as described. Outside property was dangerous! When we saw the condition of the property we immediately called the property manager. We were told we would be refunded for half our stay. We left immediately after talking to the property manager and after a month we have not been refunded anything.

Spartan but clean and comfortable.

This is definitely not a place for anyone expecting anything above very basic accommodations. Rustic and minimalist as well as small. It was clean and beds comfortable however spillover noise from the bar/restaurant was loud and bothersome well into the night. The staff was friendly but a bit overwhelmed for check in and we were disappointed in dinner. As this area recovers from what was obviously severe impacts of the Helene hurricane, we wish them well.

Nice place, but needs extermination

Bring your roach spray. I grew up in Florida. Palmetto roaches are a common thing, but when you book and pay money for a room to see them actively should not happen. There was a dead one by my nightstand by the wall. We were settling in to bed and one ran across the floor. I couldn't reach it to kill and it crawled behind the cabinetry. The next morning when I woke up the first thing I saw was a palmetto roach crawling on the ceiling above the bed. It finally crawled down toward the wall where I could reach to kill it. Otherwise I have been to Steinhatchee several times. It is a quaint get away. This is my first time staying at Fiddler's. They have a good restaurant across the street from the room.

Good value

No complaints. Easy contactless check in. Walked over and had a great dinner at their restaurant. Only stayed one night while working on our property that was destroyed.
