Nice small rental on the canal.
Old house that is remodeled nicely.
I wished the beds were more firm, as both my brother and I had a little bit of a hard time sleeping as they were saggy.
Mini split units did not work even after calling the owner for instructions, the compressor would not come on.
All in all the house worked for us, although we were a little chilly one night and a little hot a couple nights later.

Although all members of our party were not able to make it we had an awesome time! First time kayaker and the outside dock area makes you feel like not leaving!
We will definitely be returning next year!!

Second time staying here and couldn’t ask for more! My husband and I enjoyed our kayaking trips and catching fish right from our own dock! The last night we were there we had a manatee come right to the dock to eat the grasses. It was amazing. Can’t wait until we can book again!

We enjoyed our stay. The home was nice and clean. We only wished that the checkout was later, at 11 so we didn't have to set an alarm and feel rushed to clean up and leave. We would have liked to have had an extra hour to relax by the water before leaving. All else was good.

It was great for us. It was myself and grandson. I would recommend renting a boat just because the current is rough. They supplied Kayaks and we did use them and it was so much fun. I would go again and would stay here

My husband and I had the most relaxing vacation here. The house had everything you needed and the location was perfect. We spent most of our time on the dock by the water. The kayaking was amazing and we fished a lot. We were even able to spend an extra night. We will be planning g to come back soon

We had a lovely long weekend here. It was clean and as advertised. We loved having the kayaks available to venture out on the canals and the river. We brought a couple of paddleboards too—the kids spent a lot of time on the water! Thanks for a lovely stay.

Loved the house and the area. Boats could use repairs. Seats and such. But overall we had a great time.

Property is clean and the area is very quiet. We saw manatees in the canal. Our grandkids caught their first fish off the dock. It was a nice break.

The home was well represented in the VRBO presentation.. The pictures showing updates were right on. It was clean and comfortable and had all the little necessities (toilet paper, paper towels, bar soap, hand soap, coffee filters, salt & pepper etc.) needed to keep from having to run to the store. The kitchen was well stocked.
It was just right to accommodate 4 people. Might get a little crowded with six, but could be done.
It was pleasant to sit out on the dock and enjoy the cool early morning breeze and sunrise.

We had an awesome stay. Very clean and the main bed was very comfortable. Kayaked the river multiple times. Saw three manatee at the mouth of the canal. Very relaxing river float (downstream).

No info provided regarding wifi or operation of the heat and cooling systems. Called the agent who only replied by text. Used you tube to learn how to operate heat system. One chair in house other than kitchen chairs. Only one dish towel. No phone coverage for att. Thankfully my son had verizon.

Nice little place.

The overall impression of the property is excellent. There were 2 glitches in our stay:
1.) The first day of our stay was the coldest day of the year with a low temperature of 28 degrees. The place is heated and cooled by 3 units. When we entered the building only the unit in the big bedroom was working. The other 2 units had an error code of E07. It took a while to figure out what the symbols on the unit meant and turn off /on, then reset the heat on with the remote controls. A guide for working the remotes is needed.
2.) I was unable to take a warm shower the first 24 hours we were there. It took about a day to get a response from the landlord about this issue. The showers hot and cold plumbing is reversed and we hadn’t run the shower long enough in the full cold setting to get the hot water to come through. Please remark the hot/cold settings, leave a note somewhere, or have the plumbing correctly connected.

Just two of us, and it was just the right size and with needed amenities. Each room has a good step up. It is newer, updated, in the main spaces and a little ‘old world Florida cabin vibe’ in some areas. It has just what you need for a gentle paddle in the canals or more vigorous paddle upstream on the river. Several manatee sightings were a total highlight!!! Lots of bird activity on the canal let alone river, and some fish jumping on the canal.
There is no shampoo/conditioner in shower-bring yours.
I’d book again.

The house is exactly as described and nicely updated inside. It was clean and super cute! Sitting down by the dock was absolutely relaxing and so peaceful. I absolutely loved watching the fish jump out of the water. The kayaks were great and the house is so close to the Weeki Wachee River which is crystal clear. HIghly recomment!!

Great little bungalo on the river. Prime spot too that leads right to the clear river. We had a blast. Owners are wonderful and helpful and easy going with the whole rental process. Bed was super comfy and the fire pit was a wonderful added bonus.

Close proximity to the Weeki, which was the reason we stayed in the area.
About 5 minute kayak paddle to the Weeki, the river is beautiful. Had a manatee in canal in back of house. We liked having the dock out on canal, we had a great time jumping in the water!

What a great place! Clean, safe neighborhood and quiet street. The bed was really comfy and there were lots of extra pillows and blankets. Sweet backyard on the Weeki Wachee. All amenities you need, lots of towels. Even beach towels. Excellent communication with Lisa, very easy check-in. We would stay again!

Summer Vacation
The outside definitely needs some attention, front and back mostly just appearance. The house is equipped with everything, which makes it nice, there is a huge step to either bedroom so be careful with that. The beds to us were way too soft, and the couch needs to be replaced but we made due as the river was amazing. Its a cute house and the location is great

Location was perfect for kayaking
If your looking for easy access to the river this place is perfect. It was super clean and had everything you need in the kitchen and bath including plenty of towels. The back yard can use some TLC but nothing that was problem-some to us. Would not hesitate to book again if needed.

Nice cute place. Stayed with my husband adult child and dog. Place is clean. Master bedroom bed was very comfortable. Needs a little yard work but it’s understandable. Lights by the deck is a very nice touch. We had 3 manatee come by the deck along with many turtles. Place had everything you need. Had a great time
