Pool-Dock-Kayaks-Outdoor Kitchen-Ping Pong!! Waterfront paradise <3

We're back!! One of the platform's "guest favorites" is ready (almost) to host again!
Our freshly renovated waterfront home blends comfort & adventure with 4 beds, 2 baths, and dreamy water views. Cook in your upgraded kitchen, splash in the screened pool, or grill under the stars at the outdoor kitchen. Paddle our kayaks, fish off the dock, or park your boat steps from home. Brand new everything - plus a ping pong tournament waiting to happen!

*Pardon our listing construction- photos coming soon with full decor and amenities!


Find your serenity at this relaxing waterfront gulf home! Tastefully decorated, 3 kings, one queen, 2 bathroom home. Fully equipped, updated kitchen with brand new appliances. Screened in private heated pool, outdoor kitchen/bar. Launch one of our kayaks, toss in a few provided fishing lines, or take off on your rented/owned vessel you can park at "home" from the dock. Bliss awaits!

The space
>Inside: Pass through our beautiful entry into a wide open family home featuring a large primary suite, and three additional bedrooms. Three king tension relieving memory foam hybrid mattresses, one queen hybrid coil and foam mattress. Primary bath with huge corner tub, secondary bath shared by other bedrooms (shower only).

Kitchen: Fully equipped kitchen, brand new appliances. Drip coffee maker that also makes single cup servings. Coffee grinder and French press available for the coffee aficionado! (please clean after use).

Family room: Hang out in the beautiful family room with a brand new sectional couch, 65" screen tv for all of your streaming desires. Roku with streaming apps included. Awesome space for a movie night!

Mud room/cleaner's closet located off the family room. Washer and dryer available for your use- detergent and dryer sheets provided.

Beyond the beautiful kitchen find the pretty formal dining area, and game room with a regulation sized ping pong table. Board games, cards, books, fuzzy chairs- a true chill spot.

>Outside: Several of our interior doors lead to the beautiful screened in outdoor area. Our sparkling saltwater pool awaits! Grill up some fresh seafood in the outdoor kitchen, or become a mixologist at the bar serving up your favorite drinks. Please note-while we keep the pool heat set to 86 and turned on as needed year round, we cannot guarantee perfect temps if we have a rare several days of very cold weather. We do not charge for pool heat.

Beyond the large, fenced yard is your own private dock system. Brand new built in table for waterfront dining and hanging out. Take one of the six provided 10' single person kayaks off the floating dock for a 10 minute paddle to open sea! Tip: time it for sunset- breathtaking! Life jackets provided. Please be very careful accessing the dock system. Please use dock and seawalls at your own risk. Always watch for water, loose or uneven boards.

>Fish from the dock using one of our provided poles and tackle. Common catches are flounder, catfish, sheepshead, mullet- it's endless, anything that swims in the ocean typically finds their way into the canals (including an occasional manatee or dolphin!).

>Camera disclosure:
Our property is monitored by several outdoor security cameras. Street cam above the garage, front door doorbell cam, backyard camera, and dock recording audio and video. When guests are on property, we turn off camera notifications. Requesting to book indicates consent to this security feature and agreement not to tamper with the cameras. We do allow covering/turning the camera that has a view of the pool, please return to its original condition upon departure.

>Boaters welcome!
Have a boat? Bring it! Blue Pelican Marina is minutes away, dock at "home" and enjoy Gulf waters at your convenience. Blue Pelican also offers boats for rent, and trailer storage if you bring your own.

>Day Trips:
2 hours to Disney Parks and Orlando attractions, 1 hour from Busch Gardens, and Tampa Attractions. Closest airport is Tampa International Airport, or 2 hours from Orlando (MCO). A little over an hour to Clearwater beach, 1.5 to St Pete's Beach, 2 hours to Siesta Key. Wonderful day trips await! Stay outside of the hustle and bustle at your own private retreat.

>Accessibility:
This ranch style home is fully accessible with no stairs at entrances, low lip showers and wide open hallways. Grab bar to enter pool. There are steps to dock, and narrow walkways on floating dock to be aware of. Traditional door widths.

>We manage every aspect of our home personally, we do not rely on big company management to oversee anything. We have incredibly high standards for communication, cleanliness, and organization- and that can only truly be found by owner managed properties. <3 We launder ALL linens between guests- from mattress pad up to the top cover on beds, all towels, pool towels, kitchen linens and bath mats, unlike industry standard of washing many items "as needed".

>Kitchen and laundry room may contain a "junk drawer" or two with items used to maintain the home.

Owner's boat is 100% off limits. We have plenty of dock space to launch kayaks, fish from, or dock another boat, boaters welcome!

Children are not allowed inside the fishing shed due to tackle, hooks and other tools.

Please be mindful of our cancellation policy- we strongly encourage you to purchase travel insurance to protect your funds in case of an unexpected change in plans.

Father's Day Getaway!

The house was lovely and perfect for a family vacation. It's located on a canal that leads to the gulf. Fishing from the dock was fun and plentiful! We took the 4 kayaks out to the gulf and saw several dolphins. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with all of our cooking needs. We had a blast playing games that were provided in the game room. Everything was wonderful and enjoyable!

Relaxing and decompressing

This property was perfect for an unwinding and relaxing vacation! We just wanted to spend time together and slow the pace of life. The house provided the space to do just that! We did venture to a local beach one day, but the kids all requested we return to the house and they spent the rest of the day playing in the pool! We would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful Property!

The home is perfect for a family of all ages. Heated pool, pier/dock for fishing, outdoor eating/bar space has a tv and overlooks the water which is where we mostly hung out and ate all our meals, spacious rooms, kitchen has everything you need, close to beaches and restaurants... The owner Jessica is extremely helpful and quick with answering any questions and even went out of her way to provide additional tv's in the bedrooms before we arrived! Overall great stay!

Relaxing in Coastal FL

This house was great for 4 couples! We relaxed by the pool, cooking inside & out. The shed was well stocked with fishing supplies, making it easy to fish & watch wildlife from the dock. The kayaks were great for paddling to the gulf. Nice neighborhood for walking. Jessica made check in & out easy, responding quickly to our messages. Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us.

Great place and location

We stayed 8 nights and had a blast. Made extensive use of the pool (6’ deep end was great) fished everyday off the dock (mostly catfish, but also accidentally caught a turtle), kayaked out to sea, restaurants and bait shop within walking distance … what’s not to love. 3 king beds was a really nice extra as well. We highly recommend the Silver Dolphin restaurant (2m drive), which had really good food and an awesome outside garden/seating area. We even had the luck of seeing a very large alligator casually swim up the creek behind the restaurant.

Amazing Home

This home is beautiful. Perfect location pool was amazing. Outdoor kitchen was clutch. We spent so much time outdoors in that space We use the kayaks, which was so fun. We did not use the fire pit because it was too hot. My nephews used the fishing rods. It was just such a great five days. I would recommend this home highly and would book it again Thank you so much

Beautiful Property, Very Responsive Host

Numerous amenities on this property that we were unable to use due to the unseasonal weather that occurred during our stay but the large areas that exist to congregate in this beautiful home made up for that. When a small incident arose during our stay the host went out of her way to address the issue in a very prompt and more than thorough manner. Very impressed! Thank you for a relaxing and enjoyable stay!

Very nice home

We had two families with a total of 8 people stay in this house, it was accommodating. It was very clean and the online listing was accurate. Plenty of fishing poles and tackle were available at the home, bait shop is within walking distance. My 6 year old caught plenty of fish off of the dock. My only regret is not renting a boat, the dock is perfectly situated to have a boat or jet ski rental during your stay. The pool was also very nice to swim in while we watched the Florida Gators beat Utah in the swamp! Thnak you Jess!

Fun on the Weeki Wachee!

If you are looking for a VRBO with amazing outdoor space, no need to look further!! Our party spent 99% of the time we were at the property outside in the pool, grilling, watching football and kayaking from the dock. We rented a boat one day, and pulled right up to the property, and then went and spent the day in the Gulf of Mexico. The communication with the host was stellar, and check in and out was easy and smooth. Highly recommend this experience. Some of our favorite things we did were the Weeki Wachee State park for kayaking down the river and the mermaid show, a sunset and glow kayak experience, boating in the Gulf, and found a trail that we walked right across the street. On that trail we saw birds, deer and an alligator!! Our favorite drink and bar food was the Upper Deck, favorite "nice" dinner was Brian's Place, and we highly recommend Thousand Island cafe in Spring Hill for breakfast. The friendliness and hospitality of the people in this area was a real treat. If you want to explore the Weeki Wachee, book this property!

Great house for family fishing and exploring

If you want to have a place to relax with family and get some fishing in this place was great. I was very pleasantly surprised to find a well stock fishing shack with fishing poles and tackle for both light and heavy fishing. You can walk to the live Bait shop it is so close. There are cast nets and even live shrimp buckets. We fished both the dock and in the Kayaks .We caught many different types of fish including Sea Trout and Jack Crevalle. You can catch Catfish 24/7 from the dock. The Outdoor Patio was great to have family over for a sea food dinner by the pool while the sun was setting. You do get some sound from a local bar that fortunately plays good music. The beds were very comfortable. The master bathroom Jacuzzi tub is the real deal. It really works nice. The host was as pleasant as I have ever dealt with. I don't think I ever waited more than an 20 minutes for a response when I sent a message to her.

My 60th b’day/Mother’s Day celebration for wife and mom

Hard to condense this spectacular experience. The house and its host Jessica were equally amazing. Asked a couple days before check in if there was a cooler (we had several fishing excursions planned) and Jessica purchased a beauty shipped to the house waiting for us on the doorstep. Screened in salt water swimming pool was of perfect temperature and super clean…even watched Celtic playoff game 7 on back patio TV while floating in pool. Everyone commented how comfy their beds were and house temp was nice and chill. We took advantage of the practically new kayaks and paddled the canal behind house to the Gulf (could make it to the flats if calm and not too windy). Neighborhood was very nice with all your shopping necessities close by. My mom loved fishing off the dock and rods and reels provided are in great shape. Well equipped kitchen, plenty of towels for pool/beach, modern washer/dryer and nice outdoor grill. Highly recommend staying here. Thanks Jessica for providing us with such a great family vacation!

Great house to unwind

This house was spacious with all the necessary amenities to enjoy a relaxing time away from the grind. Would highly recommend it. It's about an hour away from the heart of Tampa so if you need to get your city fix its not bad; otherwise the house is perfect to just stay in and relax. Amazing outdoor space with pool and kitchen. And the kayaks provided with the house were a great bonus.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Katz

Host profile image
Originally from Denver, CO- in FL for 6 years now! Moved to be closer to family, purchased a vacation home to enjoy together. Loved it so much, we decided to offer it for stays. Now, a few years later, it's been my honor to host families that have held engagements, honeymoons, staycations, and all sorts of other amazing family memories at our property. We have many repeat guests who have fallen in love with the property.

Why they chose this property

We love this neighborhood for access to the water, low key vibe and safety. It's a quiet little neighborhood with every convenience you can think of nearby.

What makes this property unique

I'm really excited to share our new ping pong table- we went on a cruise last summer and spent a majority of our time ping pong playing! Of course, the waterfront views, kayaking to the open Gulf of Mexico, fishing for hours. It's truly paradise, and we have taken care in selecting beautiful and functional decor, amenities, conveniences and FUN!
