About this property

Riverlife Hideaway Retreat at The Weekie Wachee

Beautifully nestled in the save haven of the Weeki Wachee Preserve lies this Spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with a generous front yard view of the Porpoise canal, only minutes from the Gulf of Mexico or the mouth of the Weeki Wachee River.
The back porch upstairs or the great outside covered living area downstairs displays the most spectacular sunsets over the trees and pond.
Whether you want to have a relaxing time in the hot tub or just sit in the many areas in the downstairs living space, it is a sight to see and experience.
This beautiful property is perfect for anyone seeking peace, tranquility and relaxation. So many wonderful things to do and enjoy, every moment will be a memory, so tranquility or activity it is up to you. The minute you arrive you will have experience the sense of a vacation cottage with all the modern conveniences you would expect.
This property is only minutes from the Weeki Wachee State Park, world famous for the underwater mermaid shows, kayaking, leisure biking or for the more adventures, mountain biking in the beautiful trails near by. The area offers a bounty of wonderful local restaurants on and off the water, each unique, with spectacular views of the area and local seafood that will tantalize your pallet.
A bountiful opportunity for anyone who enjoys watching or filming the many birds that are indigenous to Florida and those who migrate south for the winter. Not a day goes by that the families of American Eagles and Osprey living in the preserve graces our skies with their artful flight in their daily tasks.
An amazing Flora and Fauna experience. There are 7 kayaks including a 2 person glass bottom kayak for your use “AT YOUR OWN RISK” they are located across the street with water access.

The Sweet Life!
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this amazing rental property in Weeki Wachee. The house was spotless and was equipped with everything we needed. We enjoyed kayaking to the Weeki Wachee River and seeing manatees and a river otter. We also took our boys to Sunwest and got entertained watching them slip and slide and chase each other on the inflatables. The hot tub was amazing, too! Our only regret is that we didn't have more time to spend there. It truly is a home away from home. The Rodriquez' are great hosts!!! If you book here, you won't regret it.

Long Anniversary Weekend Getaway
We’d like to thank Lourdes and Ernie for their hospitality…Jefe and Salsa too! We enjoyed the serene quietness that Scuba Steve’s house offered, away from crowds and traffic. It was exactly what we needed. The house was clean and well equipped (including spices, tin foil, etc). We were able to take out the kayaks and paddled around the neighborhood, and enjoyed the evenings in the hot tub. We are looking forward to a future getaway at Scuba Steve’s.

Definitely going back again
The house was so lovely, peaceful and relaxing. Close to all the fun and great views. Love that they make donations in Scuba Steve's name as we had four vets with us this year. Booking again for next year for sure ❤️

Hidden treasure in Hernando Beach
It’s rare that I rent a house and it feels like I walked into a family members home. That is the feeling I had gotten the moment I walked through the front door. The attention to detail was on point in every room really making you feel at home for the holidays. The house alone is gorgeous but when you deal with people who care and make you feel welcome that just adds to the experience. I highly recommend renting from Lourdes and her husband. Very kind and helpful. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts . I got to spend Christmas with my children.
Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2021
