Nice little spot

Great little place to stay thats easily within 15 minutes of almost anything you want to do. We were greeted by a sweet little calico on the sea wall that was out for its afternoon sunbathing. Some fishing poles and tackle were on the porch if you wanted to do some fishing off the dock and a couple of kayaks with gear to get on the river.

Great Channel Experience

The property is great; a bit 'ol Florida' feel. The deck faces south so there was morning sun to enjoy. Lots of birds in the area. The kayaks were fun. The house is roomy and well stocked. Big kitchen and cooking in it was easy. Awesome property that I would recommend and return to.

Lovely, quiet location

This is a lovely place to stay. every need is anticipated. Well appointed home and very comfortable. The bedrooms are large and the beds very comfortable. Such an added bonus to have the washer and dryer easily obtainable in the center of the house. The kitchen has everything you will need. I love the area, so much to do and wonderful restaurants. Thank you for sharing this little piece of paradise.

Grandmas and granddaughters trip

The property is similar to the pictures. The water at the dock and in the area is not as pictured. It is ok to swim in, but it is not the clean clear spring water pictured. The pictures show 4 actual beds, but when we arrived there were only 3 beds. I called and emailed the owner about this, but didn't receive any response until the next morning. We made due, but would have planned differently if we had known there were only 3 beds. The area was a mixed bag, the house next door is very run down. The house is just a few miles from Weeki Wachee and that was great. There are some close restaurants, but to us were not very walkable - as the roadway did not have sidewalks, and the 2 lane traffic was pretty fast in that area. The kayaks and other equipment were in good condition and we ventured out on the water. We did enjoy our stay

Cozy Home

My first impression on entering the home was how fresh, fragrant, and inviting it was. It was very cozy and comfortable. We had everything we needed, and our guests we hosted for dinner one evening really liked it too. Thanks again for your hospitality and sharing your home. We had the best girls kayaking trip ever. We saw many manatee and it seemed the group of 6-7 always found us on numerous occasions.

Kayaking the springs

Property was nice. Having breakfast on the deck with a manatee was one of the most enjoyable aspects of the house. Bedrooms were clean and well laid out. Only downside was musty smell had to air out house. Overall very enjoyable.

About the host

Hosted by Kande Puretz

Host profile image
Hi. I am one of the few "native" Floridians and was born in Orlando when it was dirt roads and orange groves. Both Debbie and I just love old Florida - before all the mega malls, super highways, high rises and Disney. Weeki Wachee takes you back to this peaceful era where you can enjoy the fresh water river and all its amenities.

Why they chose this property

We came to this house for scalloping season several times and absolutely fell in love with it. When the owners said they were going to sell, we jumped on the opportunity to buy it!

What makes this property unique

The house is completely and comfortably furnished with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a large kitchen, three separate dining areas, Florida Room, laundry room with washer and dryer and a beautiful outdoor deck facing the Weeki Wachee River. It has everything needed for a wonderful, hassle free vacation!
