Large covered front porch to sit and watch a variety of birds and wildlife. Only minutes away from Weeki Wachee State Park as well as Homosassa Wildlife Park. About an hour north of Tampa/Busch Gardens, Clearwater/sandy white beaches, and two hours west of Orlando/everything you can think of.

      Winderful stay!
      We enjoyed our stay at the Mermaid Shack on a trip for a family wedding andxrelaxation. We truly appreciated the fact that our furbabies were welcome and there was plenty if room for them to safely roam as the property is fenced. Plenty of indoor room for 6 people. Awesome that the house was fully stocked and neat as a pin. The property is a short drive to many of the outdoor activities in which one participates in FL but not an undoable drive. If you are kayaking, checkout Weekie Wachee boat/kayak ramp and Hernando Beach public boat ramp. Also, Ozella Trail road ( north) great area for fishing and kayaking. If you are looking for a beach in the area, check out the beach/park in New Port Richey (46 min drive). We lLOVED our stay and hope to eeturn next spring!

      Great location!
      This place was the definition of peaceful! We all found something that we loved about our two month stay. From the wildlife to the privacy. This location checks all those boxes. Our dogs loved the gated yard and they also go to explore all the wildlife. Communication with the owner was seamless all the way through! We would definitely stay again!

      Something for everyone
      Nice clean place to stay, not in the center of everything but close to everything. Relaxing front porch and shaded parking for two vehicles. The fenced yard is great if you have a dog or two. Owners are very nice and available to answer questions and solve problems. Would gladly stay there again.
