About this house rental

Welcome to Rock's Retreat. Located an hour North of Tampa and just minutes from the famous Weeki Wachee mermaids, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath waterfront home has just about everything you need to stay amused! Play arcade games in our downstairs game room or challenge your family to a friendly game of cornhole, darts, pool or ladder ball. Nature lover? You've come to the right place! It's very common to see manatee, dolphin & a variety of seabirds while you're enjoying yourself on our backyard beach or toasting marshmallows in our fire pit. Or maybe you're just chilling on one of our two balconies having coffee in the morning or playing a board game in the evening. Use our kayaks and John boat to explore the local waterways. Or get picked up at our dock for an airboat tour (additional fees apply). Close to shopping & dining, while perfectly hidden! We're pet friendly too! So, bring your well-behaved fur-babies and come stay for a couple days, or a week, or even a month! We know you're gonna LOVE IT here!!

A wonderful holiday at Sandi's house! Everything was perfect and Sandi was a marvellous host - friendly, helpful and considerate. The games room was a great feature and was well used by our grandson ( age 8). The house was very well equipped with everything that was needed. The view from the main balcony was wonderful and it was great to see the variety of birds and the manatees ( through the binoculars provided!). For us Brits, the large/best beaches were a good car ride away but well worth the effort. This is certainly the best rental that we have ever experienced and we have rented in Europe, USA and Asia. We would totally recommend this house and would certainly return if we come back to this area of Florida again. Thank you Sandi for making our holiday so enjoyable! Simon Brown, London UK

We felt very welcome here. Loved the game room and pet friendly accommodation. I loved watching the manatees everyday. Memorable trip for the whole family.
