Always a great stay

I enjoyed the new living room furniture and new kayak rack since my stay last year. I couldn't remember but the floors looked new too. Fantastic location, dog friendly and very accommodating. Thank you for a peaceful mini vacation.

PERFECT PLACE!

The house is located so close to the Weeki Wachee River you can see it from the deck!!! We really loved our stay there! My grandson enjoyed fishing from the deck. We kayaked with dolphins and the baby played with the strings on the front of our kayaks!!! We also had a Momma and baby manatees come up to the deck!! It’s truly the best place and we really enjoyed it!!

Perfect cozy getaway right off the main river

We recently stayed here and consider this a perfect hidden gem if you are trying to have a relaxing trip to the river. The backyard and dock are perfecting for lounging with friends. Nothing too fancy but definitely deserves more praise than some of the previous reviews that were left. Location wise the house is great and is walking distance to the upper deck cafe and Roger’s Park. The ceilings are a little low in some parts of the house and my husband is 6’6 but you know what he didn’t do … complain because the house is awesome and every great spot has some quirks. We will definitely be back to visit. Thank you for hosting us.

Lovely peaceful hideaway

I would love to give this little place a 5 star all around rating and there was only one reason I didn’t give it that. In the pro column: First, you have a front row seat to all the water life passing by (right out the back door) dolphins, manatee, fish, snakes, etc. This place is quiet and peaceful with a shady dock area - loads of kayaks to choose from, paddles and life jackets as well. It has a well appointed kitchen and loads of towels for the bathroom and very comfortable beds. They supplied some paper products and cleaning products. I was raised poor (but didn’t know it). We camped in tents for our summer vacations and slept on the ground - and loved it. The reason for the less than 5 star review is the smell inside the house. It is an old house and it smells like mold or mildew - something akin to a musty hamper or your teenagers room after they have been practicing two a days all summer and leaving their dirty sweaty work out clothes in a heap on their floor. I will give them credit, they had dehumidifiers in multiple places throughout the house (so I am not the first to notice), but other than the smell, the house was spotlessly clean. I say all of that so others can be aware, and not surprised when they arrive. I read the prior reviews and some had mentioned the smell so I was aware .. I also weighed the location and other household amenities - it was worth the risk to me due to the location alone. Would I stay here again - You Betcha!

River House

My husband and I enjoyed our time on the river. The house needs a little work. The floors are very unlevel throughout the house and could pose a fall risk. The bathroom is a little small, but it was fine as my husband and I were the only ones there. The house was pretty clean, other than the oven. The deck out back is great, but again has a few boards that need to be fixed. The first night we were there we had a mama and baby manatee right off our dock which was awesome! It is in a quiet area and is close to everything. The front of the home has no curb appeal at all, so if you are looking to rent this home, do not go based on the front of the home. The check in was very easy and they let us go out early, which was great. Overall, this place is worth the money and the owners were great.

Birthday Trip

Nice location, good price & appreciated having the kayaks & paddle boards. There was no large floating water mat as pictured. There were games & misc. entertainment items available that would be good for outdoor activities. The house was very clean & the check out / clean up process was minimal which is nice. I would caution people as there are many un-level surfaces on the decks / walkways. The owners were responsive & easy to work with. Overall we had a great time. We saw so much wildlife - manatees, alligators, crabs & mullet fish flying out of the water left & right!

Relaxing Getaway

If you're looking for a quiet spot to relax by the water this is it!! The house was clean and comfortable but we spent most of our time outside chilling/grilling by the water. We had a great day kayaking and swimming and my son loved laying on the floating mat after! Highly recommend for a simple, peaceful getaway!

river oasis

Needed a quick get away and found this little gem! Spent most of our time outside on the patio with our pup. Home came equipped with all the necessities for river activities, we enjoyed the short tour to the river itself and neighboring channels. Walking distance to the upper deck was also great if you didnt want to kayak or paddle up. The home is as the pictures described, nothing fancy but we appreciated the attempt in touches owners took to make it welcoming and cozy. If youre like us, you came to relax and spend most of the time outside anyway. We were deep in relaxation mode we extended our stay and returned home feeling recharged. Would recommend, and stay again!

A little vacation

A cozy house with everything you need to have a pleasant stay with your family. Everything is very clean, with comfortable beds and all the utensils you may need in the kitchen, it is located in a good place. In general, I would return as soon as I have free time to spend other fantastic days.
