Disclaimer

This is an outdoor experience reserved for folks who enjoy camping, love the outdoors, and are somewhat adventurous people. Please do not book this if you cannot be flexible with weather, wildlife or the water. You are on the water and on a still night there may be mosquitoes so please come prepared with your choice of bug repellent. In addition, you WILL hear (and possibly see) wildlife! This includes but is not limited to alligators, large birds, owls, otters, and sturgeon that Choctawhatchee is famous for! As a reminder, like camping, weather can be extreme – both hot and cold. We do provide a window unit AC, however, it requires the generator to work. This may require you to fill the generator multiple times during your stay. On a breezy evening, you can leave the door open for a wonderful, peaceful nights rest! Please pack light! We provide all paper products, gas for the generator (5 gallons per day). You will need to bring any food, beverages and toiletries you may need during your stay. If you need assistance getting your gear to the lodge – let us know! We have assistance available for a minimal fee. Guests must be able to climb in and out of your boat onto the houseboat and be able to spend time in a smaller area. Check in times are 3-6pm. Our reservation specialist will be in touch with you prior to your arrival to set a firmer time and we ask that you respect his/her time and arrive within the agreed upon time. If you need an exception to the check in time, please communicate with our host. We will try to accommodate requests within reason. If significant travel delays happen, you will need to find other accommodation for the night as we cannot check in a guest after dark. Check out time is no later than 2pm. We offer late check out if you desire – please work with your reservation specialist to arrange this. Thank you for reading this in its entirety and considering PAK Outdoors for your unique getaway experience! If you have any questions, would like special arrangements or if this is a special event you are planning (birthday, anniversary, etc…) please give us a call – we will do everything we can to make this the best vacation yet!

There's only five stars or I would give it more! We were met promptly at the landing, our gear was loaded for us! On the boat ride to the houseboat, he told us about the river, wildlife, the springs,and what we could expect. The accommodations are nice. Soft mattress on the big bed, four twin size bunks. Great use of space, plenty of nooks and spaces for your gear. We were able to rent the houseboat and johnboat (fuel included for the boat and generator). There is a bucket toilet, trashcans, toilet paper, paper plates, plastic cups and silverware. Smoke detectors and several plug ins. Two LED bulb lights light up the inside well. Did I mention that my Verizon wifi works?! It's April and the bugs are barely noticeable. Bring some bug spray and you'll be fine. Window air conditioner if you need it, plug in space heater if you need it. You can also just open the windows, they are screened! Propane grill and camp table provided too. Bring your bedding and your hunting or fishing gear, pack a cooler and get out here! This is a hidden gem! Family owned and operated by locals too! We will DEFINITELY be returning!
