Perfectly placed on the Weeki Wachee river and loaded with everything you need to enjoy the water. We enjoyed everything about this rental. The owner was very nice and accommodating. We will visit here again!
We had a fantastic time here! The place was spotless upon arrival, beautifully decorated, and spacious. Perfect for our large family of nine. The theater room was the kids favorite and doubled as a bedroom which was awesome. There was a perfect amount of kayaks as well, and the shaded dock, and screened porch was a plus. We saw lots of turtles and a few manatees right off the dock as well.The child loved the amount of towels.The host was very friendly and responsive, making check in and out super easy. The place is perfect for a large family or group of people. I will definitely recommend to anyone.
My friends and I had a lovely time, just wish we could have stayed longer. Home was very clean and completely charming. We really appreciated the extra decor and attention details.
Recently traveled as one family of a large group renting several Weeki houses on the same street. The little Spring Retreat was my favorite of all of the houses! The layout and amenities were so perfectly set up for a family to enjoy. Location was perfect. And the host is the best. So informative and responsive. We loved our time spent here and would absolutely revisit!
We loved our stay at your home. Thank you for being welcoming hosts and providing not just a home to stay but also so many entertainment options to keep our children engaged for several days.
My family and my friends family had a wonderful stay. The location was great and the home was just perfect for all of us. Our 8 year old boys LOVED the theater and the water pad. There were so many kayaks to use and the shed was filled with all that you need. We will definitely be back.Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us. We made wonderful memories!
We absolutely loved this sweet slice of heaven! Honestly, I debated leaving a review because I donât want it to be booked solid forever, but everyone deserves the chance to experience this little paradise.From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless. The directions were clear, the grounds beautifully maintained, and even the stairs had railings (which we appreciated). Check-in was super easy with the provided instructions.The house itself was spotless, my kids played under the beds (as kids do), and came out dust-free! The layout is lovely, the kitchen is well-organized, and the foosball table was a great surprise tucked into the nook. The washer and dryer worked perfectly, there were plenty of towels, and huge closets with extra pillowsâand even a twin mattress in each one!It comfortably sleeps 6, with a pull-out couch in the movie room that can sleep another 2 (though we never even made it to movie nightâwe were too busy having fun outside!).This place has everything for a full day on the river: kayaks, paddleboards, fishing poles, even swim noodles. We saw manatees and dolphins right off the dock, caught some bluegill, and spotted a blue crab!We truly canât wait to return. Thank you, Carolyn, for sharing your slice of heaven with us!
Right on the canal that leads to weeki wachee, one of Florida's most beautiful springs. Check in was simple management near property for any reason. You will not need anything, the home is so thoughtfully stocked! More than most. The kayaks are so convenient there is a ramp to the water for ease of launch. This property is on a canal so it's a little more private and just a short paddle to the main river. Crystal clear waters and fun folks along the way. You will happy and comfortable in this waterfront home! Thank you for the lovely stay in your beautiful home Carolyn. Thank you VRBO : )
Our stay was great. We rent yearly. This property specifically the back yard was the best. They thought of everything. Down to phone protection cases for the river. They went above and beyond to include extras in the house such as spices etc and were very accessible with any questions. The kayaks were great. The hybrid ones were a little more difficult to control against the water. But truly wonderful stay. The movie theater was great as well.
I did have trouble pulling up the email with instructions for getting into the house because of reception but got the code with a phone call. Maybe a text that morning with directions would help.
We loved the Little Springs Retreat. Everything you could imagine or need was supplied. There was body wash and shampoo/conditioner in both bathrooms. Hand soap, dish soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, basic cleaning supplies even bug spray. Also everything you need outside to enjoy the springs. Paddle/kayak, paddles, life jackets, floats, lots of out door seating and a ping pong table. Our stay was very comfortable and accommodating. You do have to paddle a little to reach the clear water, but itâs not bad. If you donât want to paddle, thereâs a little round boat service that will bring a motorized float to explore on. Well worth it especially for the grand parents. We saw manatees each day (high tide), turtles and a few non venomous snakes. We ate at a few nearby restaurants, the Upper Deck and Codyâs steak house. Both were very good, but must do is Tipacanoe creamery. Best icecream ever! Homemade daily. We loved it here and would definitely rent again.
Everything was perfect! The property was super clean, so many amenities and nice touches, everything worked-really an awesome stay and perfectly located!
I live in Miami where I work too much. My family and I found Weeki Wachee 18 years ago and I was finally able to buy our dream home. My kids and I put a lot of love into the house and added a lot of thoughtful and personal touches because one day soon we will move up there. We just love the people and the nature of this perfect town that has a simple city lifestyle, the intriguing history of the Indians and the mermaids plus it all surrounded by nature. There is so much to do and the people are just so friendly. The wildlife and sunsets are so peaceful. We really like sharing this experience with all our guests.
The movie theater was once a big shed and with some imagination and a great team of carpenters and electrician, we made such a fun little house! Our canal is the widest and deepest in the neighborhood and it is all spring water, not brackish. We love jumping in off of the dock!
