About this property

Beautiful River Front Home-Best on the Weeki Wachee-Read our Reviews

*** Special note, river access is becoming increasingly difficult, so if you stay right on the river, you have unlimited access, anytime, right off of your own dock, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, and motor boating.
This is a beautiful, 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home Directly on the Weeki Watchee River. We are known as the " Clock House" as the State Park maintains a clock on our boat house with directions to Rogers Park.
From the moment you pass through the hidden gate into the lushly landscaped entry path, the magic of this home is apparent.
Our premier location on the river is one of the best, with deep water right off of the long riverfront dock and across river is a huge, protected, wilderness area.
Our property has a new 8' fence on both sides so that your visit is very private.
There is a unique (only one on the whole river) boathouse with an automatic garage door. So you can board your kayaks (we have 4) or paddleboards in the boathouse and paddle out.
Of special note, the State Park is now limiting the number of boats they will launch, therefore being right on the river is more important than ever.
On the ground floor, the entire house is tiled. You come into a nice foyer with the laundry and half bath to your right and the living/kitchen area the left. Ground floor master bedroom and bath are all wood paneled walls and ceiling.
The beautiful full equipped kitchen has stainless appliances, shaker cabinets, and granite counters.
There is a huge window facing the patio and river.
There is a narrow, long, screened porch just out of the kitchen sliding glass doors for when there may be a few bugs around.
You access the second floor via beautiful spiral stairs and it has a living room with a fold out couch, two bedrooms with queen beds and a full bath.
The river deck is huge with pavers and wood decking.
There is also a brand new gas grill with a side burner, so you can cook and eat right on the river.
We have added a large screen room (very important some times of year) with a tile table and seating for 6, right on the river.
This is very nice home, very well outfitted, very well located, and owners dedicated to making this a great vacation for you and your family.
We will make sure everything is as perfect as we can so that your vacation is a great success.
Oh, never a day goes by that you don't see a manatee or two (or more)

Great place on main river
Great spot. Includes lots of kayaks and paddle boards, so you won’t get bored. My kids had the best time here. I let my kids paddle about 50 yards up river and tie up on a shallow spot where they loved playing football every day. Everyone had a great time. I would suggest bringing bug spray- those little bugs are no joke and will tear you up! There was some provided but we used it all and had to go get more. We had a great time and would definitely come back

Definition of relaxation!
The location was excellent and the mattresses we outstanding! If you have stayed in many VRBO’s you will understand me noting the mattresses:-). We saw two manatees swim past the dock and took the short kayak trip down river to Hospital Hole and saw more. Really enjoyed out time at this home. My only suggestion would be adding some lounge chairs to the patio area. There is plenty of very comfortable chairs already but a couple loungers would have been great. Furniture in the living room was also comfortable!

About the host

Hosted by John Nock

Host profile image
We live and work in St Augustine in the building, rental, and self storage business.
Four great children that love the river as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

This home is probably one of the best situated on the Weeki River
It is one mile from Rogers Park (the take out point) and four miles from the State Park. So kayaking and paddleboarding right from the deck is so easy.
Also the home is just beautiful with tile floors and some all wood paneled rooms.
Of great importance is that across the river is a very large conservation area. So no homes on the South side of the river, just beautiful woods.
And there is even a boat garage complete with an automatic door. You can leave your kayaks in the water, or stash you small power boat inside.
Please consider our current lack of reviews since we just purchased this home. Perhaps look at our other homes on the Weeki to see how well they are reviewed.

What makes this property unique

The popularity of the Weeki has caused the State Park overload on the launches. They have gone to a reservation system. Between that and very limited parking, its hard to get on the river some days. So kayaking right from home you can go as often, long or short trips, as you like.
Paddle, come cook lunch on the grill right on the river, and go back out again.
This home is very boat friendly, just tie up on the river and take sunset cruises to the Gulf every evening.
We have a new concept, courtesy of a guest. This home is an ideal location for your wedding. The large paver deck, right on the river makes a very romantic location. And we have two other homes, right on the river and nearby, for your guests. Please contact us for special package pricing.
There is plenty of parking for you, your guests, and your boat trailer.
