What a lovely property. It’s so cozy and peaceful. It was just as described with all the amenities. We loved being able to hop in the kayaks from the dock and go down the river. We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here about 8 years ago and loved it. We tried to reserve it again a few times over the last few years, but it was always reserved. We finally got lucky and were able to reserve it for our Weeki Wachee vacation. It was just as we remembered it, maybe even a little nicer. The house had everything we needed and was perfectly appointed and equipped. I can't think of a thing we needed that we didn't have.We loved sitting on the elevated deck watching the canal as fish swam by, it was so relaxing. We paddled up the Weeki Wachee (best done during the week as the weekend can get pretty wild) and we paddled out to the Muddy River. Overall, we had a wonderful vacation and will definitely try to rent The Tree House again.

Such a great spot to spend a quick weekend getaway. The property was just as listed, super cute and homey. We brought our own paddle boards so we didn’t use onsite kayaks but there are plenty to spare with life vests available for use.
