The Water's Edge is the perfect vacation home for you! Look around, this is a fully equipped home. Outdoor eating, gas grill with lots of floor space for entertaining.

Whether you are a scalloping, a fisherman, or a sun worshiper, The Water's Edge has it all. Be wowed by The Water's Edge open floor plan that provides unparalleled views of the canal from almost every room in the house! Enjoy the large living room with fireplace, plenty of seating, stunning cathedral ceilings, and multiple sliding glass doors that lead out to two decks that overlook the canal. Descend the deck's wide stairways and sunbathe in one of the many comfortable lounge chairs by the pool, or relax and take a dip in the hot tub! Enjoy the sunset from the elevated deck under the lanai or walk out to the 30 foot private dock. With direct Gulf access and a deep water canal, bring your boat too! The public boat launch is only walking distance away from The Water's Edge. Enjoy grilling? Barbecue with a view from the barbecue deck complete with its own table and chairs. The Water's Edge also has a fully equipped kitchen with granite counter tops and bar stools. It is the perfect location to prepare the catch of the day, brew a fresh cup of coffee, or mix your favorite drink.
The Water's Edge comfortably sleeps up to 6 while providing plenty of room to relax, mingle and stretch out. There are three bedrooms and a large reading area/office with balcony that overlooks the main floor. The master bedroom is located on the main floor while the other two guest bedrooms are located on the top floor with their own full bath. The upstairs bedrooms are easily accessed by ascending a spiral staircase from the main floor.

Aside from its top-notch accommodations, the Water's Edge provides bikes and kayaks to fuel your adventurous spirit! Take a relaxing bike ride around the neighborhood or paddle through the many breathtaking canals and take in the scenery. If you love fishing, there is no need to leave the house! Enjoy fishing right off the dock.
The Water's Edge is located minutes from seven excellent local restaurants, most of which have tiki bars, live music, and all of which are pet friendly. Craving seafood? Hernando Beach's local restaurants have grouper, scallops, shrimp, calamari and more! Restaurants offer a variety of excellent food from the land and the sea - you name it, they've got it! If you'd rather cook your own seafood delicacies, Trader Bay Seafood has all you need to create an exceptional meal. At The Water's Edge, you can enjoy a cheeseburger or any other favorite food in paradise out on the town or right from the comfort of The Water's Edge.

There is no denying that The Water's Edge has everything and more to make your vacation in Hernando Beach a memorable one. We hope you love our home as much as we do when you stay at The Water's Edge!

Great place to vacation

We had a great time at Ed's place in Hernando Beach. Ed was a great communicator and when I mentioned we had three boys ages 11, 9 and 9 and we were interested in bringing our bicycles he went out and bought three new bikes for the boys! We split time laying around the pool and investigating the local area and restaurants. We even chartered a fishing outing that took us 40 miles out into the gulf where we caught snapper, amberjack, grouper, grunts and hogfish. If you're looking for a great fishing outing get in touch with Mason at Royal Sea Excursions. We will certainly consider coming back next year at spring break! Thanks Ed.

As it should be

This home was exactly as advertised. Very comfortable in a quiet neighborhood. We would rent again if we were returning to the area.

Gorgeous getaway

This place was a little slice of heaven for the family and I. We had so much fun having access to a pool and it really made it special for the kiddos. Having the dock on the canal was a nice touch for some intermittent fishing too. I would 10/10 visit this site again!

Pure Relaxation :)

What a beautiful home! My wife, Sandy, is an elementary school teacher and we needed to find a nice place to relax and chill over her Spring Break. Well, we found it. Ed, the owner, was most gracious and wanted to make sure we had a great time. He was very easy to talk to and gave us pointers on a few things around the house. It was well stocked, very clean, the hot tub/pool was fantastic, and plenty to do around the area. Very enjoyable and we hope to be back to The Waters Edge soon.
