Kevin was a wonderful host and the house was perfect for our family. It was comfortable, well appointed, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The proximity to the springs made it incredibly convenient for exploring the area, and the outdoor spaces were especially enjoyable. They were peaceful and relaxing, and a great place to unwind after a day on the water. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.

The location was outstanding and the house was clean and cozy with everything we needed, including comfortable beds. There was a great selection of kayaks, all of which seemed to be in good condition. Perhaps the best compliment came from my 13 year-old son (a tough critic), who said he wants to live there! Also, the host, Kevin, simply could not have been friendlier or more accommodating. We definitely hope to return in the future!

Excellent property! We often take mini vacations to the Weeki Wachee river and this is the second time we’ve stayed at this property. The property itself is fabulous. It’s in an excellent location. It’s very nicely furnished and has everything you’re gonna need for your stay. The host is spectacular. This one is a real gem.

Thank you for staying again. I love that so many of my guests keep coming back. And especially thank you for reviewing after a second stay. Almost no guests ever send a review after their first stay.
I hope you feel as though this is your home away from home.

Loved the spacious kitchen and living room. We put two teenagers downstairs and one upstairs. There was plenty of room and 3 full bathrooms. We used the kayaks, fire pit and grill. Thanks for sharing your place with us, the location was fantastic!

Our recent stay at this property was amazing! The house is very comfortable and so well equipped with all the comforts of home. Kevin was an incredible host- very accommodating and quick to respond with any questions. I highly recommend this property. Our family will definitely be back!
Our family stayed for Labor Day weekend and we had a great time. The house was clean and comfortable! The owner was very personable, polite and responsive!! We will definitely be back!
This property is wonderful. Lots of kayaks and all the necessities. The house is spacious, clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location.
Host is very accommodating, easy to communicate with.
Property was very clean and orderly! The layout is perfect for multiple groups. The upper and bottom patios were lovely to enjoy during morning coffee and dinner drinks. The dock was so much fun. We even had some manatees come welcome us to the home! 5/5 on the stay!
We stayed here to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family and loved it. Having a spacious living room/kitchen and 3 full bathrooms was especially great for family units to have their own space. Kayaks were easy to put in water and Weeki Wachi river / springs was beautiful. The kitchen was well equipped even for my mom to pull off a great thanksgiving meal with all the trimmings. Love that it is a pet friendly property! Kevin was great! We highly recommend it!
When we first arrived the canal was pretty mucky, but it cleared up the next day. We took a kayak ride to the river and it was beautiful. The beds were clean and the house is full of convenient amenities. We stay at Weeki at least once a year, and would be happy to stay here again. Thanks for sharing your riverhouse with us.
This house was great and plenty of room. We had a wonderful time kayaking the river. Nature around us was so awesome to watch. Manatees everywhere, mullet jumping, turtles , ducks, and a lone garbage bandit made an appearance one evening. Weeki Wachee River is truly a beautiful place. Communication with Kevin was easy and fast reply. We will be returning here again.

Nice House inside...
No stairs inside, outside access 3rd bdrm, couple blinds need repair. Yard needs attention, dock repair,overgrown, broken screen door, broken. chair, old sink in yard.
This was my third spring trip to the area for kayaking. By far the best accommodations- spacious and lots of natural light. Separate area downstairs for my two adult sons. Super clean with everything you could need. Excellent system for getting into kayaks. I hesitate to give this place the wonderful review it deserves because I would like for it to be our secret, but I guess that is not fair to the really great host! We saw manatees in our canal most days. We will be back as soon as we can.
Communication with owner was great with fast response. Kitchen was well stocked with all equipment and dishes; house was nicely furnished; we appreciated having soaps, shampoos and paper products supplied; crab traps were available and successful!! Kayaks were provided and we enjoyed paddling seeing manatees! Comfortable beds. Glad that the porch deck was screened to allow evenings without the Bugs. Keyless locks very convenient.
We collected our recycling items and brought to local center because curbside recycling was not available ( Florida issue??) and glass not recycled!
This property hit everything on our checklist. Honestly, I felt like I found the unicorn property for my purposes and my checklist. The biggest thing for me whether I’m in a rental property or a hotel is that it’s clean and this property was clean. This is the first time we travel with our dogs. We did it as a test because we live about an hour away in Florida. This property was perfect for my fur babies as well. A screened in porch on the second floor and a sunroom on the first floor that had a portable air conditioning. The dogs could look out so I knew they weren’t gonna be staring at four walls and barking at every noise that came by. The property was fenced in so they could roam around. I like the river access from the canal. Because we were on a bend of the canal, we’re looking at the water and the manatees in the canal. We only had four in our traveling party so it was very spacious and was stocked with all that we needed for our trip as far as pots and pans, cooking utensils, towels, kayaks, paddles, fishing pole, I would definitely rent this property grand, and the host was very attentive and checked in.
Highest Quality Most Affordable Vacation Rental On Weeki Wachee River
My boyfriend and I brought his two kids, 13 and 9, for their first paddle boarding trip on Weeki Wachee. I have stayed in many rentals on the river and this house was by far, the most affordable, best quality rental we've had. The house was impeccably clean and perfect for a family with teens that want their own space or for two couples. My only wish is that we stayed for longer than two days. The house is only a quick .25 mi easy paddle from the river and was equipped with quality kayaks, life vests and paddles for the whole family. We brought our own paddleboards but, were thoroughly impressed. Kevin was so responsive and gave incredible recommendations of restaurants with great food and live music! The house was even equipped with just about every kitchen utensil and baking dish you would have at home. We had a dessert baking competition and it was so much fun. Thank you for expansive peace of paradise with us. We will be back. Five stars!!
This home was perfect for a group slumber party. Private accommodations for 6. Open floor plan is perfect for our group of musicians. Great location; we caught fish, watched manatees feeding on eel grass in this canal and lots of water toys to explore the river. Updating is in the works for upgrading outdoor gathering areas.

Thank you so much for the review. I am certain the manatees miss you.
Location of the property was ideal. The property is right on the water. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was updated. My only concern was the cleanliness, it could’ve been better.
Kevin’s place exceeded expectations and he was always available to answer questions. This was our 3rd time staying in Weeki Wachee and our best rental experience yet! The location was perfect for us, quiet yet easy paddle the main river. We are already planning to return in the spring.

About the host
Hosted by Kevin Harris
Retired nature lover. First time to visit Weeki Wachee hooked me. I immediately bought a home , and now have three. All my vacation homes cater to completely different lifestyle needs. One home is in the quiet area with access to Mud River by Mary's Fish Camp. Has a boat ramp and very fast access to fishing and scalloping in the gulf. Another home has access to Weeki Wachee with a heated, salt water pool that is screened in. And the third is a super modern living home with beautiful king master suite and two levels that look over the canal with quick access to the main Weeki Wachee river.
Why they chose this property
Walked into home and knew immediately that this is perfect. The water views, spacious interior, and modern feel
What makes this property unique
Modern living that you would be proud to have as your own home.
