Great views, lots of wildlife, heated pool, fenced yard, lots of privacy, fishing right off the dock. We enjoyed Christmas week with our adult kids relaxing, cooking, listening to music, puzzling,and enjoying the outdoors. We are from the area and would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay. The place is as advertised and Heather was very attentive. The family really liked the wildlife interactions. We had a pair of Dolphins hang out at the dock for 5 to 10 minutes, made the trip for my daughters. Seen several manatees. The top deck was a favorite spot for the greats views of the Gulf.

Great remote quiet spot for a family, kids loved the bunk room. Located on a tidal waterway, saw a manatee and lots of birds at low tide. Heated pool was a hit as the temps were 40 degrees at night. 3 Kayaks available to use from dock, pool floats available. Beach is about a 20 minutes drive but closed for bacteria during our stay. To access pool and laundry, a walk down to basement and out sliders (a bit difficult to open)to heated pool. The kitchen was well equipped.The layout:1st floor-master bedroom with bath with canal views2nd floor- 1 bedroom with canal views2nd floor-3rd bedroom with 2 sets bunk beds 2nd floor Bathroom in hall between 2 bedroomsLaundry and pool access in basementBring your binoculars- lots of birds and a manatee to watchSmall local Pine Island Beach about 20 minute drive.

Amazing View

This house was perfect for our group! The views are spectacular from the ground level and both balconies!! We cooked every meal at the house, with plenty of space for us to enjoy together time and alone time. We paddle boarded from the dock with lots of places to explore.

Best vacation ever

We came down to see the Weeki Wachee river and this house is very close. I wanted something on the water with a private pool and it literally felt like we were on our own private island. So relaxing and the large porches were our favorite place to be. Would definitely stay here again!

Nicest House in Hernando

We take a scalloping trip to Hernando each year with our family and have stayed at many of the larger rental homes in Hernando before discovering this home. It is far and away the best home we have stayed at in Hernando. The house lives up to the pictures.

Our recent stay in Hernando Beach was wonderful. The house was clean and beautiful, with all the amenities we needed. We especially enjoyed sitting by the pool and taking our boat out to catch scallops. It was a fantastic experience, and we highly recommend it.
