About this property
Mermaids, Manatees, Kayaking, Swimming in the Spring Waters of the Weeki Wachee
Sirens' Cove Vacation, is a Mermaid Hide-a-way on the upper Weeki Wachee River where the waters are crystal clear. Located half-way between the Weeki Wachee State Park and Rogers Park, it is an ideal location to enjoy the river for a romantic get-a-way or family vacation. We welcome small, quiet gatherings but we Do Not allow large parties. The central living space has a large kitchen island to accommodate cooking and family gatherings. The home features beautiful bamboo flooring, new couches, big screen T.V., a contemporary kitchen, with spacious countertops. Outside the sliding glass doors, there is a large paved patio and seating and charcoal grills. Follow the brick path to the extra large deck and crystal clear, Weeki Wachee River. Easy access with steps leading to the river, you can wade into the river, for swimming or launching a boat. Because you are on private property, you can swim and wade in the river off of the deck. There is plenty of deck seating for the entire family, an extra large fire pit, hot tub, swinging chairs and an outdoor bathroom, the “Bali Bathroom" for your convenience. There are between five to seven kayaks, including a tandem inflatable kayak along with numerous inflatable floats, and toys available at any given time. Please note: the house sleeps eight; two private bedrooms with queen beds, and two fold-out queen sofa beds, one sofa bed in the main room and the second sofa bed in the "Florida Room". Please note; The Florida Room is separate of the Main House. It has big windows with screens and ceiling fans and a stand alone air conditioner. The Florida room is “glamour camping” and you can sleep in nature, with hoot owls and frogs peeping at night and birds singing in the morning or close the windows and enjoy the rom AC. Teenagers and kids will love having their own "Glamping" space with a full sink, table & chairs, musical instruments, games and toys for tots. This is the real Florida, humid and sub-tropical, surrounded by springs, scrub preserve, birds, bugs and wildlife. It is a kayakers paradise. Between 5 to 7 kayaks are included! Enjoy this retreat on the crystal clear spring waters which maintains a cool 72 degrees year around. “The Nature Coast” awaits with Mermaids, Manatees, Swimming, Snorkeling, Sun-Bathing, Birding, Fishing, Kayaking, Paddle-boarding & more. I reccommend for you to bring your own firewood, bug spray and sunscreen. Don't forget to your Mask, Fins, Snorkel, Mermaid Tail and Clam Bra. Please note we do have exterior cameras on the property for our security and yours but would never intentionally invade your privacy.

The house and amenities were beautiful! Are stay was very relaxing and peaceful. The back patio was amazing we loved swimming and relaxing and just enjoying nature and how beautiful it was. We will definitely be coming back hopefully for years to come.
The location is amazing it has the perfect area to swim and just relax on the river. We watched manatees everyday swim past. The house is wonderful with amazing touches of art every where. Beautiful decorated with a wonderful open layout. The host was wonderful and super easy to contact. We can’t wait to come stay again.

Thanks Alicia! and thank you for starting the laundry! such a big help.
If you are looking for a tranquil get away, this is the place. The property is nicely laid out with everything you need. Beautifuly decorated and an outdoor paradise.
Everything was great! The property and location were awesome, a hidden gem for sure. The river and kayaking is the star of course. Saw 4 manatees swim by the dock our last day and a few while kayaking as well!
This home was even nicer than I thought it would be. I was particularly surprised by how open and elegant the main room and kitchen felt. The riverside views and swimming were stunning, and I think we may be coming back next year.
It was amazing. It was so relaxing that I will definitely go back. Having communication with the host is always important and I definitely wasn't disappointed.
We have stayed in this beautiful house a few times and have loved every visit! My favorite part is the ability to access the spring right from the deck. No need to go anywhere.
We loved the giant deck right on the river. We saw manatees almost every day and enjoyed the outdoor amenities like the hot tub, kayaks, and hammock chairs. Overall a very nice, relaxed vacation spot great for viewing wildlife and experiencing the beautiful Weeki Wachee River.
We enjoyed our stay! Loved all the artwork and glasswork around the home too. We saw 1 manatee swim by, an otter catch a fish, and a raccoon washing his hands. It was a peaceful getaway that was much needed.
We had a great time staying in your beautiful home.

About the host
Hosted by Susan Gott
Welcome to my little piece of paradise on the Weekie Wachee River. It’s my weekend getaway and sanctuary. I only rented to friends at first, and word of mouth. It needed work when I bought the house but I knew it was special. After over a year of stabilizing the foundation, renovations, landscaping and remodeling, inside and out, I can finally say the house is done. Vacation rental ready; 2 private bedrooms, two baths, the outdoor 'Florida Room' with queen futon and living room pull-out sofa; sleeps eight. Many upgrades, including professional kitchen, WiFi, Flat screen on Spectrum, bamboo flooring, original art, kayak rack, pavers, shade sail. Spring of 2020 upgrades include deck replacement, an outdoor "Bali Bamboo Bathroom" and new cabinets and countertop in the Florida Room.
Why they chose this property
This is just one of the most special places on the planet, or at least Florida. There is something magical and sacred about the Weeki Wachee river. I have traveled extensively, but this little spring fed river holds a magic all of its own. You just have to dive into its crystal clear waters to understand. I have found my own little fountain of youth.
What makes this property unique
The property is surrounded by wildlife; deer, otter, turtles, manatee, even a small population of bear, but I have never seen one. Bird-watching, is awesome, hummingbirds, wild turkey, hawks, eagles, kites, migratory song birds, water birds will be seen on any given day. Enjoy the day just sitting on the deck and watching folks float down the river can take up your entire afternoon. And the best part, My neighbors are former mermaids. Yep, they really are and if you are lucky you might just get to meet them.
