Don’t Book This House… Unless You’re Okay With Manatees Stealing the Show

Imagine sipping coffee on the dock when a manatee glides up like it’s auditioning for the role of “Cutest Neighbor Ever.” It happens here. Often. Whatever you do, do not read the reviews to find out if we're telling the truth ;)

And if you don’t want wildlife sightings right off the backyard, this probably isn’t for you. But if you do… our kayaks are waiting, the yard is massive, and the fire pit is practically begging for marshmallows.

So, on a more seasonal note: even though the calendar says Fall right now, Florida is still serving up warm, sunny days—perfect for paddling, swimming, and soaking up nature before the cooler months arrive.

October and November are some of the best times to experience Weeki Wachee: fewer crowds, manatees starting to return, and plenty of golden sunsets to enjoy from the dock.

Ever dreamed of waking up to the sound of birds, a gentle river breeze, and the call of adventure right outside the screened in porch?

Our family-friendly waterfront home is a slice of Florida paradise, just a five-minute paddle to the crystal-clear, 72-degree waters of Weeki Wachee.

We love this place because it’s the best of both worlds—relaxing when you want it to be, and full of outdoor fun when you’re ready for it. Whether you’re here to kayak with MANATEES, fish off the dock, or just soak up the sunshine, this place is designed for making real memories with family and friends.

What You’ll Love About This Home:

**BIG Dock** – Perfect for fishing, launching kayaks, or just enjoying a morning coffee.

**Kayaks Included** – No need to rent! We’ve got **5 adult kayaks + 3 kid-sized ones** ready for adventure.

**Huge Yard & Fire Pit** – Room to play, grill out, or make s’mores under the stars.

**Unbeatable Location** – Close to parks, springs, and Weeki Wachee’s famous **mermaid show**!

**Space for the Whole Crew** – Sleeps up to 6 adults comfortably, or 8 with little ones.

---

Outdoor Fun Starts Here

This is the kind of place where memories just happen. Spend your days paddling down the river, grilling up fresh-caught fish, playing lawn games, or just kicking back on the dock** while mullet jump and manatees glide by.

At night, gather around the fire pit, tell stories, and watch the stars. (Pro tip: S’mores make everything better!)

Want to explore beyond the house? You’re just minutes from Weeki Wachee Springs, Pine Island Beach, and some of Florida’s best water adventures.

Oh, and don’t worry—restaurants, groceries, and anything else you need are just a short drive away.

Inside the House

We’ve set this place up to feel like home, but better.

- **Master Bedroom**: King bed (because everyone deserves a good night’s sleep).

- **Guest Room**: Queen bed + 2 convertible chairs that become a queen or two singles.

- **Living Room**: Cozy and open, perfect for movie nights or game time.

- **Fully Stocked Kitchen**: Everything you need to cook up a feast (minus the groceries).

- **Washer/Dryer**: Because no one wants to take home wet swimsuits.

---

Pet-Friendly (With a Few Rules)

We totally get it—pets are family. That’s why we allow one small dog (under 20lbs) with a **non-refundable $200 pet fee**. (Sorry, no cats!) If you have a special case, just reach out—we’re happy to chat.

---

A Few Things to Know

- **This is our family’s home away from home.** We ask that guests **treat it with the same love and care** we do.

- **We have 3 outdoor security cameras** in **public-facing areas only** (driveway and yard). This is just to keep trespassers away and ensure a safe stay.

- **Grills are available (gas & charcoal)**, but guests will need to provide their own propane/charcoal.

Ready to Make Memories?

This isn’t just a vacation rental—it’s an experience.Whether you’re paddling, fishing, swimming, or just soaking up the Florida sunshine, this place is all about slowing down and soaking in the good stuff.

An amazing stay on the river. Home was clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The river is beautiful, plenty of kayaks and highly recommend doing a scalloping tour if you have never done it. Saw manatees and even a dolphin right off the dock. Overall an awesome experience!

Had a fantastic time we enjoyed, swimming, kyaking the river and fishing right on property. Everything was so neat clean and very relaxing we could just go with the flow. Close to everything we could possibly want. One particular highlight was seeing a wild dolphin right off the dock. Amazing!

Our stay was wonderful! The location was perfect for getting to Weeki Wachee reserve. We saw manatees everyday from the back deck! There were kayaks of all sizes that were perfect for everyone in my family, big and small. Plenty of lifejackets and a large floating mat that we used everyday. The house was clean and had all the amenities you will need. The host responded immediately to all correspondences and was very helpful. Definitely recommend!

Easy access to water fun

We came done to Florida to visit with family, and also enjoy the Weeki Wachee - one of our favorite places. The house is back off the river and has easy access. The entry to the river is central enough to either go up to state park or down to Rodger’s park.

Exceptional Outdoors!

This was by far, one of the best experiences we’ve had on the best canal in the Weeki Wachee area; the home has an exceptional outdoor deck and dock area and the home had a great living space, comfortable beds and adequately provided all of our indoor needs;Manatee routinely swam up to the dock at high-tide to eat the vegetation and was an amazing treat to watch! Morning coffees on the deck underneath the majestic old-Florida oak tree shading the home were the most peaceful part of our day! The host was extremely prompt with any of questions and communication and really made us feel welcome and appreciated with personal touches. We can’t wait to plan another trip to this little gem in a corner of paradise! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Family Spring Break

The house was just right, very welcoming, 2 bathrooms, lots of sleeping options and the location was amazing. We enjoyed the fire pit and the deck. Date night at the local Italian restaurant was perfect. The stable of kayaks needs some attention, but the host was helpful is getting us what we needed for four days on the amazing river. Also ask the host about launching your kayaks from Weeki Wachee State Park for the best experience!

Weeki vacation

First winter trip in retirement .Normally I have one or two weeks vacation. This time no hurry. Great location, very quiet, nice canal that gets you to the Weeki wachee river. Nice that you are in a.secluded spot, but 4 miles to anything you need.House had everything you need abc the big bonus was we could bring our dogs. Big side yard for them to run . We all had a great time

Rustic house in great location

We enjoyed our stay. The location, on the canal, was great. There was plenty of room for the 3 of us and the beds were comfortable. Towels and linens were all good quality and there were plenty of crockery, mugs and glasses. There is plenty of space outside and several kayaks and other stuff to use. The reason for not giving 5 out of 5 was the need for some updating in terms of showers, decor, overall maintenence etc. Also the main sofa was quite uncomfortable. Overall it was good rather than great

This home was perfect for a long weekend get away. The kids loved the lily pad, swimming, and kayaking in front of the house. They were safe and could enjoy the water while the adults relaxed on the dock and/or patio. The main river was just a short paddle away which was lovely.

Fall Break

A beautiful break away from the hustle of everyday life. Our first vacation away with my 11 and 15 year old. Cut short thanks to hurricane Helene. Lots of paddling on the river. Lots of wildlife. We had a few camp fires. The dock was a beautiful place to sit and have coffee or a cocktail! The home had everything we needed. The owner was great to communicate as well! We hope to be able to make it back to continue to explore the area!

This peaceful piece of paradise was just what we were needing. This home was extremely welcoming and even better than described, well suited for our varying ages from 1 to 79. Kayaks were very popular for some in our party, and water viewing was enjoyed by all. Ended our perfect stay with s'mores around the fire pit. Hope we'll be invited to return.

Though it did rain one day, we were able to spread out and enjoy a puzzle and dinner at home. Plenty of space! Thanks so much for a wonderful experience at Weeki Wachee!!
