Groomed walking path surrounds the lake with an island that's accessed from an arched foot bridge.

Our 12-acre site is comprised of 3 homesites. In addition to the main house and cabin we have a 3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage that is also used for short term rental and shares a water well with the cabin and is also available on VRBO. All of the sites are secluded and none of the homesites are visible to each other, or any other home for that matter :)

Twisted Pine borders several thousand acres of undeveloped lands. It's an animal and nature lover's paradise and home to so many of the amazing flora & fauna native to the region. The cabin is nestled in trees such as Magnolia, Cypress, Pine, Oak, Catawba, and Hickory. It's too numerous to name all the wildlife that we've seen but a short list includes armadillo's, opossums, squirrels, raccoons, Cooter and Florida softshell turtles that make the place their permanent home in addition to the abundance of critters we've seen passing through including bobcat, gray fox, black bear, alligators and otters.

Birding at Twisted Pine is INCREDIBLE! Birds attracted to woods, water and meadow can be viewed. A partial list includes owl, hawk, eagle, kite, vulture, egret, anhinga, great blue heron, goose, turkey, wild ducks -including wood ducks, cardinal, bluebird, titmice, jay, chickadee, wren, dove, woodpecker, finch, robin, crow, sparrow, grackle, mockingbird, oriole, painted bunting, hummingbird, towhee....... The Barred Owl calls are unforgettable, and the owls can best be seen at dawn or dusk/early night.

We try to preserve the natural biodiversity of the site overall. We do mow the path around the lake and the meadow a few times a year. We have never stocked the lake, but we have installed aerators to increase oxygen levels and improve the water quality. While we have no structural flood plain issues and we do have a large open meadow between the homesites that slopes down to the lake, please keep in mind we don't have groomed lawns. During times of high precipitation, the lake level can rise, the canal can fill, the access to the bridge may have standing water in front of it and there may be a few areas on the driveway with short-term standing water. The driveway has recently been rebuilt, is in very good condition and has a solid base with no mud so a 2-wheel drive vehicle can easily drive through any short-term standing water on the driveway.

We keep Italian honeybees, domestic ducks and chickens and have various fruit and nut producing trees and shrubs including Meyer lemons, blueberries, mulberries and a very small vineyard as well as vegetable and herb gardens. Our domestic fowl are penned for their safety and located on the other side of the lake.

We enjoy sharing our seasonal bounty and fresh eggs, honey from our bees and homemade snacks featuring homegrown or seasonal ingredients will typically be awaiting your arrival in addition to the staples we keep stocked including premium hot beverages, granola bars, toaster pastries, oatmeal, popcorn etc.

Free breakfast is available. New Lakeside Cabin in Tallahassee, secluded & near town also features barbecue grills and a garden.

This Tallahassee cabin is smoke free.
