About the host

Hosted by Dixie Fechtel

Host profile image
We are Leesburg natives and this home has been in or family forever. Other family members live nearby and we reside in a waterfront townhouse in an adjoining neighborhood called Palm Harbor. We are minutes away by golf cart if you should need anything. We also have a pontoon boat and when possible, enjoy taking our guests for a short excursion across Lake Harris to view Helena Run, a wilderness waterway.

Why they chose this property

This home is a cozy place to stay while away from home. Located in the geographic center of Florida, the coast is 60 miles away, and the attractions in Orlando, including Walt Disney world, are about an hour traveling on the turnpike. Orlando International airport is an easy drive of an hour as well.

What makes this property unique

If you enjoy the outdoors and wildlife, you'll love sitting on the front porch to view the water birds and other critters. Fishing spots in Venetian Gardens on the Harris Chain are within view of the porch and provide entertainment for your guests as well. Or rent a golf cart and travel over the bridges and paths in Venetian Gardens to reach downtown restaurants and shopping.
