David and Kelly were great hosts. Kelly checked in pretty much daily to see if we needed anything. The home was cozy and plenty of games to do inside in case of inclement weather. The home is sitting on the Gulf fishing was great we caught snook, sheep head,reds,lady fish, lots of good fishing. The outside pavilion is a great place to hang out while grilling and eating. Everything was great and we really enjoyed our stay!

The stay was excellent from the beginning. Our family enjoyed the views and hospitality from the owners and will be looking into staying at more of their properties. Kelly and David made us feel welcomed and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our stay. This property is one of pure bliss and worked well for our large family and pups.

We really enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful time exploring the area. There are great restaurants and our dog loved her daily walks at a nearby Preserve. We saw manatees and dolphins right off the dock. We will really miss the sunsets. Our hosts were the best!

Great stay on the water
Nice location for nature lovers, which is what we are. Saw plenty of wading and tripical birds. Also got to see some dolphins feeding right off of the deck. Only wish I was able to capture some pictures, as that was a highlight of the trip. Nice house and well taken care of.

Spring Hill
Fantastic place. If you want a quiet place in nature to relax after a day at Weeki Wachi, this is the place. Had a nice breeze off the gulf overlooking beautiful and relaxing scenery. One of the days we never left, kayaked and swam in the water and had a nice bonfire that night. We will be back

Perfect Getaway
Perfect little getaway. We enjoyed every aspect of the place. We fished and in the backyard catching nice large red drum while my husband and friend enjoyed beers and sunset. Took the kayaks and canoes out to enjoy playful dolphins. Local stone crabs store that is less then 5 mins away. Grocery and bait shops are also close by and convenient.

Beautiful Gulf Retreat!
Our family stayed at Dave and Kelly’s fabulous home in Aripeka! It’s a great location with great bird watching, dolphins and fishing right in your front yard! Kayaking in the back waters is so fun as well!!
Great location if you’re bringing your dog along as the yard is fenced and it’s set up for your four legged family member.
You will definitely enjoy this home!! Dave and Kelly are great hosts as well, very responsive and so nice!

Private, gulf-access paradise!
The property is very unique and private. The home is stocked with whatever your family may need for a week of outdoor, boating adventures. We really enjoyed using the kayaks to explore their water weighs around the property and saw manatees, dolphin, and sea turtles. The home is in great shape, and the mattresses were very comfortable. We definitely hope to return in the future.

Super duper duper awesome
9 year old describing it Super duper duper awesome! House was great for 2 families of four with kids in the double queen room. Place had all kinds of stuff to do and use, great outdoor setup. Amazing view and sunsets. Great spot for beginner kayakers, bring water shoes for getting in and out. Bottom suite you do have to go outside to access from main area. Hosts had fantastic communication and were very helpful. Highly recommend.

Not your typical Florida vacation. (Better)
This property is amazing. Although inside the home was really nice we spent very little time inside. We spent most of our time sitting on the dock, under the pavilion and on the upper porch. We also kayaked and fished several hours each day. The sunsets EVERY night were indescribable.
The hosts checked on us several times just to make sure everything was perfect. Which it was. I highly recommend this property.

The perfect spot!
This property was absolutely gorgeous. We stayed the month of March 2024 for a break from Wisconsin winter.
As a long term rental we can say the beds were comfortable! The home is nicely maintained & decorated.
Every day we spent out time watching wildlife! Many species of birds, dolphins and even an alligator! Most enjoyable were the magnificent sunsets!
The area is convenient to stores, restaurants and breweries. We found every thing we needed & more. Dave & Kelly were wonderful hosts. We are planning our trip for next year!

Gulf Coast Fun for All Ages
The house was beautiful inside and out with lots of amenities and wonderful hosts. Every day was filled with excitement. We went kayaking, canoeing and fishing on the gulf. Loved eating fresh fish caught right off the dock. We spent a day explored the many beaches nearby. Enjoyed our visit to Tarpon Springs shopping, dining and exploring the Sponge Docks. We went to the mermaid show and also took the private boat tour thru the Weeki Wachee Spring enjoying boating, swimming and watching the manatees. Some of our crew even braved spending another day exploring the springs on their own. Every night we watched the most beautiful sunset. A great time was had by all

Stayed 04/13-04/19/25
This property was beautiful, clean, and fully stocked with cookware, utensils, condiments and toiletries. If you are planning to visit within the Hernando Beach area, this house was very conveniently located. My husband and two teenage kids found this property online. I was a little skeptical because several of our days were going to be spent in Tampa, Clearwater and St. Petersburg which are about 1-1.5 hours away. This was a bit of a drive but wasn't too bad. The days spent at the home were relaxing with a fantastic view, plenty of fishing, kayaking/canoeing, and swimming. There was a separate bedroom and bathroom that could only be accessed by going outside. We didn't know this when initially renting the property. The kids wanted their own bedroom but they ended up sharing the bedroom with two beds so we all could stay within the house. The detached bedroom/bath may be an issue for a family with many small kids however. The beds were comfortable with plenty of additional blankets and a nice full size washer and dryer were available. All in all, this was a great property to stay at.
