Loved this property! It was great for our family and pets! Everything was comfortable and clean. The access to the ramp and private dock were ideal for visiting the flats. Linda was amazing! Very attentive and accommodating! The screened, heated pool was the perfect cherry on top for our staycation this weekend. Will definitely be back!

While we enjoyed our 3 night stay there were issues with the house. The location was good, there was alot of room in the house for the 6 of us. But the dishwasher didn't work. The pool area was not clean. There were German roaches all over the kitchen. We threw away alot of food because we didn't want to chance the possibility of the roaches getting into the food. The owner did say the dishwasher was being fixed and she was getting the bug guy in there to spray the house. But that wasn't much help to us on our vacation.

Worked out perfect for a weekend stay after a cruise. It was nice being on the canal and having a pool to relax in. The inside was nice. I was born and raised in springhill and love the houses out in Hernando beach. There’s plenty of room for big families who are traveling. We had 2 adults, 2 17 year olds a 15 year old and a 11 year old. The kids could go take a nap and not be bothered by their siblings. When you go on a cruise you need some relaxation afterwards. And this was perfect and exactly what we needed.

We absolutely loved our stay at this home! The pool and the hot tub were our favorite parts of the property, they exceeded our expectations and were so handy to have right off the kitchen for our kids to plan. Plan. We loved that it was enclosed and were even able to use it on one of the Rainier days. We used the grill often, and even cooked up some of the fish we caught right off of the dock! We loved having the crab traps as well and even caught a few! We felt very relaxed in the area as we prefer calmer, less touristy areas. Being within a couple miles of the weeki wachee River was amazing. We brought our own kayaks and were able to take day trips down. The river saw multiple manatees, we even saw some in the park nearby! The neighborhood is quiet, and the neighbors were friendly. There were multiple little restaurants nearby that we enjoyed as well. We loved the size of the home, it can accommodate large parties if needed. So way more than we needed, but we did enjoy having the space. We loved using the bar area with the kids. They had fun making up fun little mocktails to have out by the pool. We would definitely recommend and would stay again!
