Fantastic & responsive host. The home layout was perfect for two families w/ kiddos in the bunk room. Also loved sunsets on the floating dock & plenty of kayaks for everybody. Recommended & would happily stay again.

We had a REALLY incredible weekend!

We had a REALLY incredible weekend! The house is in a nice location. Great wildlife viewing. We had a mama manatee with her calf hanging out right by our dock. Kayaks were easy to pull into the water. It was nice and quiet on the canal at night. Kitchen had everything we needed; every kind of pot, pan, cooking utensils, etc. The decor was very much weeki-wachee themed. I could tell they put their heart and soul into it all. We were NOT ready to leave but will hopefully be back soon. (:
