Josi, your thoughtful touches and warm hospitality made this the most memorable Spring Break we have ever had. Sergio, your laughter is infectious! Your care and love of the INN and of each other make this a wonderful place of peace and relaxation. We are grateful that we have been a part of the Soares world this past week! Kathleen's giggle will be missed. You are a wonderful blessing in the middle of Florida! Thank you, thank you and thank you! Michael, Lisa, Samson & Isabella -

Wish you good luck and success in providing people with a great place to escape from the daily routine and enjoy your welcoming atmosphere... Sedmakova, Juliana and Vinicius - Florida

The hospitality of Josi & Sergio was unmatched! As soon as I walked in the door it was like walking in to home. The cooking was Top Notch! So private, so clean, an amazing place to get away. I'm looking forward to returning.

We celebrate our 3rd Wedding Anniversary and had a marvelous time relaxing with Josi & Sergio. Very friendly and interesting people and excellent cooks! We had already told our daughter she needs to come and stay we hope to make it again later this year. Everything was comfortable and Josi had fun making heart shaped breakfast for us. Best wishes to Josi, Sergio & Kathleen. Keep up this excellent establishment!

Josi, Sergio & Kathleen - Again you have made this a fabulous relaxing trip for us.+ dinner was wonderful. Thank you for everything, you have made this our HOME!!! PS. ONCE AGAIN, WE WILL BE BACK!!!!!

Sergio & Josi - Thank you so much for your outstanding hospitality! The Pine Lodge is so charming, quiet and immaculate and the food was so beautifully presented and delicious! Staying here is so much private & intimate than staying at a "cookie cutter" hotel or resort. We couldn't have picked a better place to celebrate our anniversary. Thank you for the surprise gifts! We appreciate your thoughtfulness. Your attention to detail is A+! We look forward to visiting again - Thank you for making us to feel so welcome! PS. Great Swim with the manatees trip with manateeswim.com! Fun!

Josi, we had a wonderful time here. We relaxed outside on the swing, had fun in the pool and enjoyed the Special Breakfast! The cottages are decorated nicely and couldn't be any cleaner. We went tubing and boating while in the area . The Rainbow River is crystal clear + the kids saw otters & turtles swimming around them! We look forward to our next stay. Thanks again!

I always enjoy the peace surrounding the Pine Lodge. Josi and Sergio made it extra special with such warm hospitality! Kathleen is a delightful spirit popping in here and there. I felt like I was visiting family!

Sergio and Josi are so wonderful. Their energy made the experience and the food much better. They truly cook and serve with love! What a wonderful experience!

We had a very pleasurable stay here and enjoyed it very much! The Cottage was lovely, the service was great, the breakfast even better and you two made our stay just perfect. Keep with the good work - We're looking forward to stay with you again... In German: Alles Gute und Vielen Dank Corina & Robert - From Germany - 5/29/2010

Our host Josi and Sergio were great. Nice people. They helped keep a big secret from my husband.I planned a weekend getaway there along with kayaking down Rainbow Springs with out my husband knowing a thing till we got there. Pine lodge was beautiful, warm and cozy. Romantic getaway too. The cottage we stayed in was awesome. The pool was great. Another SURPRISE for the hubby. We will be back again for sure. Thanks for the wonderful breakfast. Next time we will have a brazilian dinner there at the lodge. Gracias Josi y Sergio.

The pool is wonderful. Atmosphere is calm and relaxing. Rooms are cozy and private. Many outdoor things to do in the area. Hosts are fabulous and know how to cook!

We spent 3 nights, and only say the Food and service are 5 star. Talk to Josie and let her know your desires. She and her husband, will try to meet your needs. The Cottages are very nice,bring your snacks, bev. They did one full dinners for the for the 4 of us. My 14 year old grandson was very impressed. The 3 adults, who have dine in Europe, USA and other areas. The quality of the food is 4 to 5 stars. The Hospitality is equal to the food. Breakfast, is fun and good. The price is fair for what you get!!!! Try It You Will Like it!

We loved our weekend stay at the Pine Lodge. Sergio and Josie were wonderful hosts and very attentive. The room was beautiful and cozy and the meals delicious. It felt very much like visiting friends without losing the privacy of an intimate getaway.

Josi and Sergio are our new friends, we were welcomed into their home with loving arms. We enjoyed the spotless room and the salt water pool, and do they know how to cook and they love serving you. We will go back again, love you guys, Adam & Charlotte.

If only we had known how fabulous the Pine Lodge was we would have stayed longer (we only stayed one night).Josie and Sergio are excellent hosts and we will definatly come back to stay longer.

Josi & Sergio, absolutely fabulous! Everything was beautiful prepared - the room, the food. Thank you for being so gracious about our late arrival. We will be back e recommend others. God Bless You Both! In Jesus.

Sergio & Josi - although we are literally neighbors your impeccable Brazilian charm is instilled in your every surrounding. Indeed a gem. Thank you for a memorable experience. We will return.

We really love this B & B! It is really quite and lovely place to stay. We alway come back to this place and kayak the Rainbow River, then we come back to jump into the pool. What a way to finish off the day!

A peaceful relaxing retreat with great hosts.Yankeetown,Crackertown and Inglis are a view into "Old Florida"

Josi & Sergio are wonderful hosts! Pine Lodge itself is charming, comfortable, and offers a gourmet breakfast experience. The rates are very reasonable, and the location is great for anyone flying in and out of Crystal River Airport. I highly recommend it.

Very clean, notwithstanding the cobwebs above the window. Reasonably priced by comparison to area hotels and MUCH nicer than area motels. Yankeetown is lovely and there are lots of great natural areas and parks within an easy day's drive. Should be a discount for singles!!! Only one breakfast, half the towels, half the water, etc.!

Our stay at Pine Lodge was great. Outstanding hospitality, exceptionally clean rooms. The bedding is really clean. If you travel to Inglis Fl this is the place to stay.

The Pine Lodge is clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated, the breakfast was delicious, and the Innkeepers were most courteous and hospitable. Unfortunately, I stayed only one night. I will definitely return.

Outstanding hospitality, exceptionally clean rooms and yummy breakfasts! We have been staying at the Pine Lodge for the past year as our home was being built. Edwin and Lea have become like family! We highly recommend the Pine Lodge to everyone!
