Close to the mermaids

The house was as described. It was able to accommodate our family. We chose this location to be close to the park. It is a walkable neighborhood, which was great for our dog.

Nice house

The house was very nice but needed some tile floor repair in a few spots in kitchen and living room. They need a new king size mattress. Linda was quick to respond and fix any thing that she could. All considered with 2 hurricanes it may have been listed prematurely. I’m sure Linda will get everything repaired.

Great house, nice pool and hot tub

The house is great and nicely equipped with amenities. The pool is nice, especially for new swimmers. There are ledges/seats on multiple sides of the pool. The location is great, we didn't rent a boat, but the house is perfect for anyone that does.

Family Fun

Property was clean and spacious. We lived the pool and hot tub, used it daily! Makes traveling with pets great! We also enjoyed using the bikes. Wish there would have been kayaks on site to use, however, there are several places down the road to rent and enjoy the springs. Would definitely go back again!

Christmas in Hernando Beach

Spent a week here with my parents who winter nearby for Christmas. Great house in a quiet neighborhood. Pool area and dock are great for sitting out. Was thankful pets were allowed and I could bring my pup on the trip. Nice to have the fenced in yard. Only issue is the hot tub would not heat up. Still was a great stay.

Great Outdoor Space

Overall we really enjoyed our stay at the house. The pool and hot-tub area were great and a very relaxing part of our trip. The bathrooms are really unique and the house has a lot of character. I did notice our dog was hesitant to go into the pet yard and when I walked her into it, there were some burrs in the grass, I think a little weed killer would solve. We had planned to fish but didn't get to it this trip, but the dock area was very inviting too.

Great family vacation with grandma, kids and dog.

We had a wonderful stay with the family! The pool and hot tub were the best and we were there most days and most hours of the day! Fishing off the dock was great! We rented a pontoon boat for the day and docked it right in the back then went out to the flats for a fun excursion. Everything we needed including towels, linens, dishware and utensils were included. Linda checked in with us to make sure we arrived okay and answered our text when needed. I read some mixed reviews about the place being a bit rough around the edges and that may be true, but it is an older home; retro at this point, and I believe is priced appropriately. It definitely did not take away from our experience, in fact the retro feel was pretty cool. We are all already daydreaming about returning to this awesome spot!
