Great Thanksgiving trip to the river

We had multiple families and rented out 3 homes close by to celebrate Thanksgiving. The kayaks were a huge hit! The kitchen was stocked great with all the necessary pots, pans, and spices! We had a great time!

Peaceful and relaxing

The home was as described and worked well for our group. There were plenty of kayaks and we used them daily. Just a short paddle from the main river. We saw manatees daily right from the dock. We will definitely be back. Super easy to communicate with hosts. Great time overall 10/10 stars

Loved it!!!! Would totally come back

My family loves to visit this area of the country near Christmas and New Year to enjoy the manatee and the environment. Weeki Wachee is a fun place where you can slow down or speed up if you like. Lots to do or not do and this house helped us enjoy the area even more. Lots of things to do right off the back deck with all the kayaks available and lots to do in the house with a pool table and board games and plenty of space. Meg is a great communicator and very responsive. Absolutely loved it.

A NEW FAVORITE

Megs does a great job of making sure you have everything you need. The riverhouse was comfortable, clean and very accommodating. There were plenty of kayaks, towels, sheets and kitchen accessories. We saw plenty of manatees and enjoyed our morning kayak rides. It was a great way to start the day. Lounging in the pool afterward was the cherry on top. Thank you so much. We would love to rent your beautiful riverhouse again in the future.

Location, Location, Location

It was a very lovely place great location. The pool was dirty when we got there but the owner was quick to respond to come and get it cleaned. The bunk beds in the one room is only for very small children not very stable. I wish it had bunk beds in the downstairs part or even a sofa bed that would be a nice plus. There is a TV in the master bedroom but the other two bedrooms do not have TVs it would be nice if they did. The home is a little outdated and definitely needs new pots and pans but other than that the home is very nice and I would consider staying there again.

Great location and property

We loved our stay at Meg’s place. Easy kayak ride to the Weeki Wachee river and right near hospital hole. We caught crabs for dinner, swam in the pool, kayaked the river and saw some manatees. My 10 yo even got to pet a manatee when a group of three came right up to the dock. The house is super comfortable and clean. It had literally everything we needed. The kayaks were in fantastic condition and the pool was a huge plus. My kids loved the game room. We loved the screened porch. They didn’t catch any fish at the house - maybe they weren’t biting? But loved their fishing charter with Captain Keith of Bulldog Fishing Charters. Thanks for sharing your place with us, Meg!

Loved everything about this place. The location was perfect for easy access to Weeki river every day. Pool was great for relaxing after a long day of kayaking. Hopefully owners will update bedroom pic to show the tiny cot bunks have been replaced by nice size bunk beds. We will definitely stay here again.

What a house!

We stay at Weeki Wachee every time we come home to visit my family! My husband fell in love with the springs after I took him on a kayaking trip there when we started visiting from VA to see my family. We have stayed in several homes but nothing compared to this house! The home sits in a dead end road and the canal wraps around the house! There is a pool, a pool table and 3 bedrooms, 3 baths! Absolutely breath taking views! We celebrated my niece and nephews graduation and had a little get together at the house and it was perfect! We will continue to stay here each time we come down after the experience we had! No matter the imperfections, the house and area made up for it! Pros: comfy couches, pool, pool table, walk in dock to the water for kayaks!! Plus 14 available kayaks! We saw manatees everyday sitting on the dock and for the first time ever. Mama and baby dolphins! We are thankful for the hospitality and how great the host were!

Bday celebration

Your place is very nice. The pool was a little cold, but it’s April. It should be warm by now, but I know it’s been cooler this last few weeks. Overall, your house is beautiful It was clean on the inside. The house itself could use some power washing and tree trimming, but I’m sure that will get done but overall we had a great time and I would definitely stay there again. Thank you for everything.

Loved the Property, House Very Dated

Check-in was easy. The property is beautiful with a pool … cold, but after a few hot days it was bearable for some of us. The palm trees were beautiful and some lit up at night around the pool. It was very pretty. The kitchen needs new cabinets, some drawers were not usable and the laminate on the cabinets was lifting or off. All appliances worked so cooking was a breeze as well as clean up with a dishwasher. We had our boat with us, the dock was absolutely dangerous with rotted and lifted planks. Be careful! Carpets need a steam cleaning on the stairs and area rugs as well. Overall, we really enjoyed our time in Weeki Wachee and the property served its purpose. Would definitely be a 5 star property with updates and dock repairs.

Relaxing

Perfect spot on the river for quiet & relaxation. Yet close to favorite spots like hospital hole & Rogers Park. Lots of manatees to see. Kids love the pool table. Screened porch overlooking the canal. Swimming pool, floating dock, standing dock. All right at the water's edge. Quiet neighborhood.
