The unit has one bedroom downstairs with a queen size bed, flat screen T.V., dresser, 2 night stands and a walk in closet. The second sleeping area (downstairs T.V. room) has a leather queen pullout sofa with a memory foam mattress, 2 leather recliners, and a flat screen T.V.. The loft upstairs has a daybed that pulls out into a king size bed with memory foam mattresses and has a dresser and mirror. The loft area also has a curtain room divider for privacy.

Summer getaway
This house was perfect for our family. We also rented the apartment so we had the entire house which sleeps 12. It literally had everything that you needed and more. We had 3 small children ages 6,5 and 3 and the location on the river was exactly what we needed. It was very shallow right off the dock so we were able to put floats in the water and just hang right there while the kids played. Or we could take one of the kayaks or paddle boards down the river. We saw so many manatees and even dolphins right off our dock. We look forward to renting this house for many summers to come!! Super clean and quick responsive management made our trip easy and enjoyable! We were looking for a peaceful relaxing summer vacation and thatās exactly what we got! Cannot wait to stay here again next summer!!

Weeki Wachee River
House was immaculate and well equipped. The river is practically in the back yard! Great views and easy access for swimming and kayaking. We encountered two small issues that were caused by us and management was very supportive and resolved both issues promptly.
Would definitely return and highly recommend this location to anyone wanting to spend time on crystal clear river. There are several step up/down locations in addition to a 2nd story master bedroom and bath. So anyone with mobility issues may have difficulty.
Great vacation. Thank you!!!
