Lots of fun and relaxing, too!
This is a beautiful and well-maintained property that's on the outside corner of two canals, one that provides a long view to the west.Kayaking and paddle boarding are what draw us to Weeki Wachee; this house is perfect for both! The four single kayaks were in good shape (we never took out the double). Good selection of paddles. A carpeted boat ramp makes launching easy. The singles have bow ropes attached, which make for easy towing if somebody gets tired. One of the two paddleboards is a Lifetime Freestyle XL. It's big (116" x 36"), and thus great for beginners.The house has plenty of small amenities that we appreciated: Lots of really nice art, including a fabulous mermaid painting and a sea-life filled manatee-shaped shadow box. Cable TV (vs. just streaming services). A box of charging blocks and a full set of cables. Cool selection of coffee table magazines with some I'd never seen, like AFAR. A beautiful wooden chess set.I don't know if Lynda will continue to provide bicycles in the future but I sure hope she does because we LOVE bicycling at Weeki Wachee! It's fun to explore the roads that wind along beside the canals and roll past all the interesting houses, or bike to the Upper Deck for some food. For longer rides, Cortez has bike lanes all the way to Commercial and then Commercial has concrete paths that are separated from the highway. Cycling the residental streets at night with headlamps is sublime.We liked it so much that we added on five more days!
