About this property

3/3 ON WEEKI WACHEE RIVER

THIS HOUSE IS DIRECTLY NEXT DOOR TO VRBO PROPERTY ID 2023489

Congratulations, you have just happened upon the absolute perfect get away destination. This gorgeous mid-century modern home will give you a unique perspective of unspoiled Florida living. This 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom and 1726 sq ft hidden treasure is nestled under the high tree canopies and sits directly on the edge of the meandering crystal clear spring waters of the Weeki Wachee river.

The home has recently been beautifully remodeled and decorated. The living and dining space flow through double french doors into the enclosed and finished Florida room. The panoramic views through the floor to ceiling windows beg you to step outside to enjoy the breath taking views first hand of the winding river. The large wooden deck sits over the rivers edge allowing you to sit peacefully and enjoy natures wonder. Sturdy stairs just off of the deck allow you direct access down into the cool blue waters so you can enjoy kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming and more right from your back yard. There are 4 - single person kayaks for you to enjoy.

Each bedroom is nicely sized and the house sleeps up to 10 comfortably. The eat-in kitchen with vintage refrigerator has plenty of room and is fully equipped for any cook to prepare their fresh catch of the day. The cool blues on the walls complemented by the warm earth tones mimic the natural surroundings and have you feeling serenity and complete relaxation whether you are inside or out.

Even though you may feel deep in nature and secluded from the world, you are only minutes away from SR 50, 15 minutes away from the Suncoast Parkway and less than an hours drive from the Tampa International Airport. Weeki Wachee Springs State Park home to the world famous Weeki Wachee Mermaids and Buccaneer Bay is 5 minutes away. Rogers Park & Boat Ramp is less than 10 minutes away.

You truly will leave this vacation home feeling relaxed, refreshed and revitalized. Many book their next reservations before the end of their stay. The hardest part will always be packing up and saying good bye until the next time. Schedule your trip now before the calendar fills up.

Peaceful

Our group of 6 enjoyed staying here very much. We especially enjoyed the living room, dining and kitchen areas. The 2 regular bedrooms were very comfortable. We loved the kayaks and our chance nature encounters with deer and wild Turkey. The bunk room is obviously meant for kids and we did not find that room comfortable and functional as an adult. This could be changed by some simple additions including mattress pads on the beds, improved comforters or blankets, a side table by each bunk, and some kind of dresser or side table to put your bath items on. Literally invest $200 and this could be fixed. Also, the outdoor furniture is similar and not very comfortable. Just needs a slight upgrade and the area would be so much more enjoyable. Overall though, very enjoyable!

Location can't be beat

Amy was very accommodating and helpful during our short stay. The location was perfect to kayak up to the headspring and float back down to the house. We saw manatee every day during our stay. We also saw deer, turkey, an owl, turtles and so many fish while sitting on the deck. The kids got so much use out of the rope swing. It was very a very peaceful stay. The only thing I would warn about is that you will want to bring extra paper products and cleaning supplies. There was very little toilet paper provided and I never did find any dishwasher soap. I had read previous comments in the reviews about this though so we came prepared with all we needed. It is also worth pointing out that this house has a bit of a "fun house" effect with the sloped floors everywhere. It is not fancy inside, but it was comfortable and the river truly is as beautiful as it appears in the photos! We were outside most of the time anyway so it was the perfect place for us to stay. I would definitely stay there again.

Weeki Wachee stay

Think the overall experience was great, but some of the pictures did not represent what was actually on-site (patio furniture, grill, etc.). But this did not diminish desire to return. A truelly beautiful setting and house.

Location! Location! Location!

This home is truly in the most magical location : the gorgeous river in the backyard and a wildlife preserve in the front. We loved seeing the manatee, deer, owls, turkeys, turtles, and bunnies! This part of the river is much quieter than other locations we've stayed; which is nice. The kids in our group enjoyed the rope swing into the river. The included kayaks were a big plus - we even borrowed a few from the neighbor! My family [a group of 10] thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The house is spacious and comfortable for a big group. The decor is beautiful and the house is well stocked with all the kitchen essentials. I will note, in the spirit of honest reviews : if you are in to luxury, this may not be the house for you. The bathrooms could really use a good cleaning; the floors are unlevel up and down through the house; the patio furniture is deteriorating and the lounge chairs were missing; the grill pictured was not available [but there was a small charcoal grill], the washer and dryer barely work; and the bunk mattresses are not fit for adults. That being said - the reason for our visit was obviously the river; the location and scenery did not disappoint!! I would definitely recommend this house especially if they make a few minor upgrades. :-) Thanks for the awesome week with my extended family. 8 people in the group were first timers and now they're in love ❤️

BOOK THIS HOUSE NOW!!!

This is our 2nd time staying at these homes. We rent out both houses between 4 families. It is absolutely the most magical place. Our kids have the best time and the adults too! If you want a place that will allow you to have a the best week of your year....then look no further. The house is in the PERFECT LOCATION for this river. Great house + Great location = BEST WEEK EVER!

A very lucky find!

We checked in here mid week after we had to vacate our other Weeki Wachee vrbo due to major issues. Amy was quick to communicate and lined up cleaning of the property quickly so we could check in early. Everything was exactly as pictured and we had everything we needed. Our only complaint was the washing machine, it had a hard time completing the cycle. We can’t wait to go back and feel very lucky that this property was magically available during Spring Break!

Amazing location

We’ve never been to Weeki Wachee springs before and we got so lucky staying here. The location can’t be beat and all the neighbors are nice and friendly. We loved kayaking up and down the river with the kayaks provided at the rental. We saw a manatee swim by the house and numerous turtles and interesting fish. My kids loved jumping into the river from the rope swing. The current is pretty strong so life vests are highly recommended for kids. The rental itself is clean and fully stocked with everything we needed even board games. We really want to come back during manatee season next time!

A beautiful and secluded riverfront home.

The house is exactly as described…very spacious and comfortable bedrooms and living areas. The house is all one level with no stairs, so parking and bringing things in is very easy. The river is clear and surrounded by a preserve so it is very quiet … The kayaks are a great way to explore and enjoy the river, and it is a lovely view from the wonderful deck… very peaceful. Amy is a lovely host and it was a pleasure to stay at her beautiful waterfront house.

A little hidden gem!

We came to FL looking for something different than a beach vacation, and this place did NOT disappoint! We spent 2 days just kayaking up and down the Weeki Wachi and the scenery never got old. One of my favorite places in FL, we would definitely return!
