General Information

The Grady House was built around 1917. We have decorated the Grady House to create an ambiance of relaxed comfort to help you imagine a time gone by when the pace was a little slower and people had more time for the finer things in life. The house served as lodging for railroad workers when the railroad was a major industry in High Springs. Many of High Springs' citizens lived here as young married couples. The name is derived from a long-standing High Springs family, previous owners for many years. When you arrive , you can relax on our old Florida front porch swing or rocking chairs. Stroll downtown for shopping or dining. For our more energetic guests, we have bikes available.
