\"Like a Tree House\" Overlooking the Water
About this house rental
Situated in Spring Hill, this attractive house for $191 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. The original owner of this property told us that she felt like she lived in a tree house. She was right! Enjoy lazy days under the shade of these big beautiful live oaks. Updated recently with new floors and furnishings, you will find our home very comfortable and peaceful. This home with 2 spacious bedrooms and 1 bathroom sleeps 4 people comfortably. Queen size bed in master, full size bed in guest room. Kitchen is fully stocked with pots & pans, utensils, dishes, and enough "essentials" in bathroom and kitchen to get your vacation started. Once you get settled in, go out and enjoy the outdoors. The pristine Weeki Wachee River is home to an abundance of wildlife. You'll see sheepshead, mullet, blue crabs, and of course manatees. I counted 10 manatees one early morning leaving the spring at the end of our canal! And of course tropical birds, hawks, and eagles. Use my kayaks (3) or canoe (1) or bring your boat and tie up to my dock. Or you can rent a jon boat or kayaks from the marina across the road from the entrance to my neighborhood. Take the provided beach chairs, beach towels, and umbrella to the beach at Rogers Park, on the river (2 min away) or Pine Island, on the gulf (10 min). My family and I have been spending weekends in this home for 10 years. It should have everything you need to enjoy your time here.

Nice and clean place. We were able to access water easily. Furnished bicycles were a nice touch as well. Stayed for Christmas and seen lots of manatees.

Stayed for a weekend at this house and we loved it. Has everything you could need... kayaks, bikes, grill, firepit, great porch overlooking the river. The location of the property was great, lots of things to do in that area. We really enjoyed our stay here.

House was perfect! Loved the use of kayaks and a canoe and there were also 3 bikes we could have used. We didn’t, because we spent our time on the water. Seen tons and tons of different fish, 2 huge manatees swam by early in the morning and also a pretty big turtle one day. We were able to kayak all the way to the Gulf, that was a beautiful float.

We had an excellent time at this property. Dawn was a wonderful host and got back to me with all my questions. We saw manatees every single morning swimming through the canal, and even “Chip” the dolphin! Great Home, great location!

We really enjoyed staying here. We came down to visit the springs in the area and hopefully see some manatees. We had 3 swim right by us as we were sitting on the dock. I want to come back in the off season when things are a little cooler and quieter and I know just the place.

It was clean and welcoming. Kitchen was fully stocked.
Water was nice and the house very close to the river.
I just forgot that I am 60 and those stairs where tough after the third day. lol, but that's on me.
Over all it was money well spent.
Thank you.

The house was very clean and well stocked with comforts of home. We were able to launch paddle boards off the back dock just a short paddle to the river. Would definitely stay here again

Needed a short Mothers Day getaway before our busy Lawn season as we own a lawn care company about an hour away from the river. All expectations were met. Only wish is an a/c vent in bathroom. Hard to taking a relaxing shower and feel refreshed when bathroom is humid when you get in. Every else was magnificent and house is beautiful.

My sister and I returned to Weeki Wachee for our cousin’s wedding. Our family owns multiple properties in the area. We wanted to stay somewhere right in the ‘nest’ and the ‘Like A Tree House’ spot was PERFECT. We saw all kinds of wildlife and the manatee were running often. Spotless house with every amenity you can imagine. Just a great stay. Thank you!!!

Girls Only Weeki Wachee Mermaid Adventure
Celebrating grown daughter’s birthday with all girl Weeki Wachee Mermaid adventure. After a partial day at Weeki Wachee we returned to the house. After a short rest, we took 2 kayaks and the canoe out to paddle to the springs. This house put us in the best possible place to get to the springs. A short paddle under the bridge you see The Upper Deck restaurant on the left and Rogers Park on the right. Keep straight past park and you see the springs. We saw a Momma manatee and her baby. This was more fun than Weeki Wachee and heck of a lot cheaper! The water was gorgeous.
The house was well decorated, spotless and the beds were very comfy. We did absolutely fine despite only 1 bathroom and 4 ladies. The only negative is there were supposed to be 4 kayaks but was only 3 (1 of 3 was a sit inside type) so 2 ladies had to use the canoe which is a little more tricky. The owner probably did not realize one is missing. The neighbors in the canal were very friendly and we entertained them during both afternoons learning to kayak! I will definitely plan another trip, only if we can stay at this house! 🧜♀️❤️🧜♀️

River tree house
My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Very clean and in a great location. We brought a jet ski so we didnt use the provided kayaks, but several were available along with life jackets. Floating dock on canal was useful as well.

I chose this home for my Fiancé birthday getaway and we fell in love the moment we got there! We loved it so much we even thought about making an offer to buy it lol. This was our first stay on the Weeki Wachee river and even though it's located on a canal, it's only 4 houses down from the main river. So it's a great location! The property is beautiful, just as the home is. It was clean and tidy, also had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Although this did not affect us, the entire home is second-story level or on "stilts", so just a heads up (this is also very common near any river). The neighborhood is nice and quiet, we heard music playing, but nothing that wasn't tolerable. Parking appears slim however it's not. We had 2 F-150 pick-ups and a Dodge ram 2500 pickup with 16ft trailer...all parked on the property driveway, not in anyone's yard nor the road also without moving anything out of the way under the house/back patio. The owner was also very polite and responsive. We were very pleased with our visit and will definitely be back! Thank you. Dawn and family.

Nice anniversary trip
Stayed here for a little anniversary getaway and it was really great. Location was perfect, house was very clean and found everything we needed with ease, only real complaint was the queen bed wasn’t very comfortable to us. Otherwise, the stay was awesome and perfect for those looking to explore the river.

We enjoyed staying here. The home is immaculate - definitely the cleanest, shiniest floors I’ve ever seen. Don’t know how they do it. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies, bed was comfortable, and sheets and towels were soft and clean. Host was very quick to respond. The only negative thing we experienced was related to the kayaks. We specifically looked for homes with kayaks available as we didn’t want to rent them. After using the supplied kayaks, we decided to rent instead.
Overall - this was a great stay and we’d stay again, but we would rent kayaks rather than use what’s at the rental.

My third time staying here. Love the kayaks included and fully stocked kitchen. Saw three manatee including one from the upstairs patio. Very clean. Only complaint is the property next door was doing construction clean up late at night and early morning which was very loud and jarring from sleep.

We had a great time staying in the ‘tree house’. It was clean, well stocked and the bed and furniture very comfortable. Dawn is definitely a super host - we had an issue with the microwave and she was very responsive. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck in the evenings listening to the birds, watching for manatee and catching glimpses of the resident squirrel slipping into his house. Great location, convenient to so many things to see and do. Thank you Dawn for sharing your house.
