Annual Family Vacation
This is our second time staying at this property and we had a great time. Our favorite spot would be the covered dock where we fished, swam, manatee watched, and enjoyed the week.

Would stay again.
Everything about this place is great. Location is awesome. Not far from everything, but far enough it's quiet and peaceful. Met the cleaning lady( which I might add came out on a Sunday to try to help) do to the fact that the TV remote was missing. She was great as well. Communication with the home owners was also great. They over nighted 2 brand new remotes and a box of batteries. Sitting under the bocks shelter while it rained for a day was so relaxing as well. Would stay here again.

Home on canal
Older Florida home located on Weeki Wachee canal. Home has some modern touches. VRBO pictures and amenities match what we experienced. Because it was an older home with what appears to be several additions, there is some sloping of the floors but not bothersome. There is a single step into each of the bedrooms which I did notice in the pictures. Bed mattress was softer than what we like but we still were able to enjoy restful sleep. Neighbors were very nice. My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Family used the kayaks and paddleboards the owners provided. Our dog (and us too) loved watching the birds in the area. We didn't see manatees in the canal but did in other locations. Location is close to shopping & restaurants. Other areas like Tampa, Crystal River, Withlacochee, etc. are within reasonable driving range.

Nice small rental on the canal. Old house that is remodeled nicely. I wished the beds were more firm, as both my brother and I had a little bit of a hard time sleeping as they were saggy. Mini split units did not work even after calling the owner for instructions, the compressor would not come on. All in all the house worked for us, although we were a little chilly one night and a little hot a couple nights later.

Clean and Cozy
We enjoyed our stay. The home was nice and clean. We only wished that the checkout was later, at 11 so we didn't have to set an alarm and feel rushed to clean up and leave. We would have liked to have had an extra hour to relax by the water before leaving. All else was good.

Second time staying here and couldn’t ask for more! My husband and I enjoyed our kayaking trips and catching fish right from our own dock! The last night we were there we had a manatee come right to the dock to eat the grasses. It was amazing. Can’t wait until we can book again!

It was great for us. It was myself and grandson. I would recommend renting a boat just because the current is rough. They supplied Kayaks and we did use them and it was so much fun. I would go again and would stay here

My husband and I had the most relaxing vacation here. The house had everything you needed and the location was perfect. We spent most of our time on the dock by the water. The kayaking was amazing and we fished a lot. We were even able to spend an extra night. We will be planning g to come back soon

We had a lovely long weekend here. It was clean and as advertised. We loved having the kayaks available to venture out on the canals and the river. We brought a couple of paddleboards too—the kids spent a lot of time on the water! Thanks for a lovely stay.

The Little House on the Canal
The home was well represented in the VRBO presentation.. The pictures showing updates were right on. It was clean and comfortable and had all the little necessities (toilet paper, paper towels, bar soap, hand soap, coffee filters, salt & pepper etc.) needed to keep from having to run to the store. The kitchen was well stocked. It was just right to accommodate 4 people. Might get a little crowded with six, but could be done. It was pleasant to sit out on the dock and enjoy the cool early morning breeze and sunrise.

Pleasant Stay
The overall impression of the property is excellent. There were 2 glitches in our stay: 1.) The first day of our stay was the coldest day of the year with a low temperature of 28 degrees. The place is heated and cooled by 3 units. When we entered the building only the unit in the big bedroom was working. The other 2 units had an error code of E07. It took a while to figure out what the symbols on the unit meant and turn off /on, then reset the heat on with the remote controls. A guide for working the remotes is needed. 2.) I was unable to take a warm shower the first 24 hours we were there. It took about a day to get a response from the landlord about this issue. The showers hot and cold plumbing is reversed and we hadn’t run the shower long enough in the full cold setting to get the hot water to come through. Please remark the hot/cold settings, leave a note somewhere, or have the plumbing correctly connected.
