The house had an open and welcoming feel when we arrived. The kitchen was well equipped and easy to prepare meals in. The master bedroom had plenty of space and a nice walk-in closet. The kayaks were stored in a shed so were clean and all the seats were in good shape. The screened porch is very nice and the manatees entertained us for quite a while one afternoon. The pool table and shuffle board were fun for indoor play.

It was just my kids and I and we had an absolute blast! I felt safe in the neighborhood and secure in the house, which is a must for single parents! We loved hanging out around the house and floating down the spring. The house was clean and inviting, (they have the BEST blanket selection bar none!!!) 10 out of 10

Property was very clean. Everything worked great. We were very comfortable here. Having a dock down close to the water made getting in and out of the kayaks much easier. I appreciated having a gas grill, not having to mess with charcoal was a plus for me. I will keep this on my radar for future visits.

The house and property was immaculate! Cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in. The host provided body wash, shampoo and conditioner, sufficient hand soap, dish soap and a variety of spices for cooking. The beds were super comfortable, with plenty of pillows.The heat even worked during an unusual cold snap with no problems! The house has everything you would need. The only thing that could have been better was plastic cups for outside and a dining table on the patio or porch. Otherwise this place was perfect!

The entire house was very clean inside and out. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals when we chose to including a lot of staples such as spices, oils, splenda, etc. Stop at the house and look around before heading to grocery store, you may not need to buy everything you think you do. There is a kuerig and regular coffee pot, also an outdoor gas grill for cooking. Linens and towels were provided and laudered with neutral scented soap which is good for allergy sufferers. The house is conveniently located about 10 minutes to stores, restaurants, state parks and the beach and is on a very quiet and peaceful section of the river. If you prefer paddleboarding or boating you can rent and the rental place will deliver right to the house or dock. Getting in/out of kayaks was a little tough especially if it was low tide but once you were on the water it is fantastic, like hiking on water. We saw manatres daily. If you have time the mermaid show at the weeki wachee state park was fun and the park itself was beautiful and only 10 minutes away. We can't wait to visit again.

Hi my husband Jeremy and I are Colorado Springs, Colorado natives. We have 3 boys in college and we love Weeki wachee.

Why they chose this property

Friends introduced us to Weeki Wachee and we fell in love with everyone’s unique style, local restaurants, and river life!

What makes this property unique

The canal is awesome! So close to the main river and a lot of manatees. The house itself is very spacious.
