Headwaters Jupiter is a unique 4BR, 2BA eco-retreat on the headwaters of the Wild & Scenic Loxahatchee River, across from Riverbend Park. Built from up-cycled containers, it’s the only approved residence of its kind in the area. Enjoy river views, lush landscaping, patios, and trails. Upstairs rooms share a bath and patio with coffee nook. Free use of bikes on site & free or discounted kayak rentals with trip planning included. Total privacy—only staff or vendors allowed.
The space
Main floor: walk in to a spacious and comfortable entry way that opens into a kitchen, living room, dining room combo. Downstairs bathroom can be accessed by the master bedroom or the main home. Master BR and bonus room with twin-over-full bunk are separated by sliding louvres.
Second floor: take the stairs located just outside the main floor to an incredible view of the river, glimpses of Riverbend Park, and into your 2nd and 3rd bedrooms. These are good-sized rooms with additional small refrigerator and coffee pot. Enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon break sitting out on the patio of the second floor. Both rooms are joined by a full bathroom, and this space has two separate entries.
Headwaters Jupiter currently is the only approved residence in the area constructed from these containers, and although of unique construction and design, you will be amazed at the welcoming feeling and sense of well-being you will find during your stay.
It is located on the headwaters of The Wild and Scenic Loxahatchee River across from the 700 acre Riverbend Park with several miles of bike and paddle trails.
Guests staying for 3 nights receive complimentary kayaks and canoes to paddle The Wild & Scenic LOXAHATCHEE River. 2 night stays receive a 50% discount. Bikes are provided for all stays. Don't miss heading north on the river to the nationally designated Wild and Scenic portion where you'll be enveloped by an amazing Cypress canopy.
