Relaxing river retreat.
Beautiful home with everything we needed for the most relaxing vacation. Gorgeous deck, dock, and landscaping just beyond a screened in porch and rec area. Had the most peaceful kayaking experiences on the canals/river. Can’t wait to stay again. We didn’t want to leave!

Nicest house on the block
This house was wonderful and offered so many places to gather. It was nice to be elevated and sit on the upper screened in porch in the mornings and enjoy the sun downstairs later in the day. The drink fridge and first floor restroom are a great bonus. There also is a house that has a very large and likely very old turtle on the same road just before you get to the house where you purchase firewood. Definitely stop and slow down for a view!

Loved it!
We loved the house. There was 7 adults and it had enough room for everyone. It came well equipped with everything. We loved sitting outdoor by the fire every night. We ended up just staying and kayaking in Weeki Wachee. We found manatees every day. Manatees came in front of the house as well. The only suggestion I could think of is the ramp to the boat dock is dangerous. But that doesn’t do anything to impact our thoughts on the house. It’s AMAZING!!!!

Warm Lodging during a cold weather stay
Although the weather was unseasonably cold, the homeowner, Andrea, definitely made us feel warm and welcomed. Communication was great. The house has all the amenities for a pleasant stay. We were able to bundle up and use the supplied kayaks to travel down to "hospital hole" on the Weeki Wachee river. It was about a 15 minute paddle from where the home is located. It was a completely magical experience to see twenty or more manatees up close in their natural environment. Once you reach the river, the cold weather is much more tolerable. The river is a constant 72 degrees year-round. It was surreal and magical to see the river steaming as we traveled over it. We made great use of the fire pit and stuffed ourselves full of smores. The deck area was one of our favorite places on the property. It was lovely drinking our morning coffee (a bit bundled up!) by the water as the sun was coming up. Overall, this was a lovely house in an incredible area. We all would love to come back for another stay.

Great place!
The house was clean and exactly as pictured. We had plenty of room for 10 people and didn't feel cramped or on top of each other. Having the kayaks and direct access to the canal and Weeki Wachee river was a huge bonus. We even saw a couple manatees on the river just outside the canal. We did have trouble with our entry code one day but Andrea replied and had it fixed within 10-15 minutes. This was a great place and we'd be happy to stay here again sometime!

Fun on the weeki wachi
We enjoyed EVERYTHING about this property. Super comfy, lots of great living and sleeping spaces, wonderfully appointed. We cooked, played cards, volleyball, watched movies, paddled for miles on the river, and had cozy campfires. Perfect for our two families with teenagers. Great communication with our host.

HAD A WONDERFUL STAY
Everything about this property is A-1 quality. Andrea, the host, saw to it that we had everything we could possibly need. We felt welcome immediately with all the little amenities we found awaiting us. We couldn't find a volley ball (we arrived shortly after a hurricane) and Andrea had one delivered the next day. This is an excellent place to stay. We loved it!

AMAZING! BOOK NOW!
We had such an amazing staycation here. The house was perfect, very clean, comfortable beds, and stocked with everything you need. We had 6, 16 year old boys and two adults. The downstairs are was perfect to give the boys their privacy and independence. The bed room with beds is so fun for a group of kids and downstairs has a fridge, microwave and freezer making it so nice for the kids to snack, get drinks, and eat popsicles whenever they wanted instead of coming upstairs. We served them all their meals downstairs as well because they have a very large table. There are plenty of fans to keep you nice and cool. The pictures online just don't do it justice. It's perfect. The owner was very quick with communicating anytime I had any questions and the check in / check out process was a breeze. We loved it!

Weeki Wachee Vacay
We had the best time at Andrea's place for our week long vacation. The photos do not do the house justice and had everything we could possibly need. The entire place was beautiful and very clean! The house accommodated all of our friends and family from adults to babies. The downstairs portion was awesome for cooking and hanging out and the deck was very spacious. We saw several manatees during our stay. Could not have picked a better place for our Weeki Wachee vacation! Andrea was quick to respond to any question or need we had. Great host!

Perfect river stay
The house was amazing. It was clean, updated, and had everything that we needed. We had 6 kids with us. They loved the volleyball net, all the games, kayaking, and swimming right off the dock. We say dolphins and manatees all weekend! It was really neat. We also loved having the down stairs detached for our older kids. It was nice to have a little quiet upstairs. We will definitely be returning. We absolutely loved it here.

Stay and PLAY!
This property is awesome! You know when a place looks great in the pictures and then when you arrive, it doesn’t live up to your expectations? Well, this home is more than I expected! You will NOT be disappointed!! Comfortable space for 8-10 adults. The only issue is the deck gets really hot from the sun, so no bare feet. We moved the umbrellas to cover as much of the deck as we could. Other than that, we had a blast enjoying the river seeing manatee’s, fish and turtles!

Above expectations!
The house was perfect for our family of 8. Age ranges 55-5 years. It was very well equipped with everything we could possibly need.
The out door living areas were perfect for the little ones to play in the water and fish. Due to the property being located at the end of the canal there was not a lot of boat/kayak traffics to worry about with the kids swimming.
Saw multiple manatees come through the canal in front of the dock.
Downstairs area was perfect for evening cards and games with the kids. Grilling area is awesome for my son and I to hang grill and play cornhole.
Everything worked out perfectly for us and we plan to come back as soon as possible.
