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.

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.

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.
