Probably need a new can opener, it didn't work whatsoever! Plus one of the plastic chairs were cracked and when sitting down out of the hot-tub it broke all the way, we put it out with the garbage. Everything was wonderful and we had a great time with the kayaks on the water, we saw dolfins, manatees and snakes! Your artwork on the building and walls were an added personal touch! Lovely place and I'll recommend it!

Absolutely Perfect! Our stay at this riverfront VRBO was absolutely perfect. The rooms were spotless, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need—it was set up so thoughtfully.The outside was just as wonderful—the hot tub was fantastic, and we loved spending time around the fire pit and enjoying the games. The location was beautiful and peaceful, making it the ideal getaway.On top of that, the host was amazing and made the whole experience even better. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Thank you for such a wonderful visit!We will be back!

Cindie, Thank you for your review of our property. We do supply quite a bit of dishes and many different pots & pans. We vacation here several times a year and want all guests to have everything they need. We take pride in the care and amenities we provide both inside and outside of the home. Unfortunately we have no control over any of the neighbors and how they choose to keep their homes. We have bamboo to make the yard very private and its fully fenced. The only time you see any neighbors is when you get on the kayaks and go in the river. Thank you for staying with us!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house is so well-stocked and thoughtfully equipped. We had 3 teens/tween on the trip, so the kayaks, paddle board, hot tub, outdoor games, and outdoor projector were all a huge hit. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need, and grocery stores and essentials are super close. Each bedroom had really nice oscillating fans to keep things comfy, and the bathrooms were stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, so it was nice not to have to pack those. We had a good experience renting a small boat from the Weeki Wachee Marina one day. Pine Island was also a nice place to take in the sunset. And of course, the seeing the manatees was the absolute best. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Getaway!

This house, on a deep water canal was perfect for my husband, 3 kids, and myself. We spent 3 nights here and loved all of the amenities including stocked kitchen, gas grill, kayaks, and outdoor games! During our stay we had a mother manatee and her baby come right up to the dock! I would recommend this property for families with children of all ages. It is conveniently located next to Weeki Wachee Springs State Park and close to grocery stores and restaurants. Communication with the owner was great. We will definitely stay here again!
