About this property

Time Well Wasted in Weeki Wachee Star5Vacations

NEW LISTING!!
Welcome to the river, where wasting time is considered time well wasted!

Our home is located on a VERY quiet and private street in Weeki Wachee. Expect a peaceful and relaxing time, when staying here. Everything you’ll need on your vacation is here, just bring your clothes and make memories! It sleeps 6 comfortably or 8 with a queen pullout sofa in the downstairs living area. It has 2 separate screened in porches, a beautiful outdoor kitchen, and room for a boat.


There are 2 separate living spaces -

When you enter the main front door, you’ll see a stair case, and a door to the left. The door to the left is the downstairs living area and the staircase up is the main living area. The main living area features vaulted ceilings and tons of natural lighting. There is a full updated kitchen with 2 bar seats, a large dining room table with seating for up to 8. The living room features a large, brand new, leather sectional, an oversized chair, and a Roku TV. The living room has seating for 6-8 guests comfortably. Down the hall past the living room, is an updated guest bathroom with a tub/shower combo. Across the hall is a double twin bedroom and a Roku TV, with the master next door, at the end of the hallway. The master bedroom has a king bed, Roku TV, and tons of closet space. The master bathroom has a large, updated bathroom with double vanities, and a large walk in shower. Laundry is located off the kitchen. The best part of the upstairs unit is the screened in porch! Dining for up to 6, a sitting area for drinking your coffee, and a double lounge chair to enjoy with a book or glass of wine at night. The view is incredible - you’re looking at the nature preserve - not another house like you do on other canals.

There is a security camera facing the driveway that will be on during your stay. Any pets seen on property is subject to a $300 charge.



Downstairs the separate front door opens to a living room with seating for 4, a bar area with seating for 4, a dining room with seating for 4, and a kitchenette. The kitchenette has a fridge, microwave, keurig duo coffee maker, blender, and dinner / glass ware. The couch in this area is a queen size pullout sofa. The TV can be seen from any area in the room. Down the hall is a guest bathroom with a walk in shower, and further down the hall is a large bedroom with a king bed and Roku TV. Both the living area and bedroom are heated & cooled with brand new wall AC units. The screened in porch has dining for 6, a sitting area with 2 rocking chairs, a ping pong table, and corn hole boards for the yard.



The downstairs screened porch has access to the back yard and dock. You’ll be spending all of your time out here. There’s a beautiful outdoor kitchen under the covered pavilion - it’s complete with a bar and 2 barstools, a sink, tons of prep space, a 5 burner grill, a stove burner & griddle, and an outdoor trash can. There’s a small dining area for 3. On the dock, there’s a brand new patio furniture set with seating for 5 and an outdoor umbrella. Seawall & dock can accommodate up to a 28 ft boat - tide dependent. Kayaks included (3 single, 1 junior, 1 SUP, kayaks may vary. Rentals available nearby).

Great location
What a fun weekend. We were less than 10 mins from the Weeki Wachee Springs park and close to a few restaurants. There were enough kayaks and paddle boards for the 6 of us. We grilled and had a great time in the screened in balcony. Would love to stay here again.

Time Wasted
I gave our stay a 5-star rating although the way it started indicated a much lower rating would have been in order. When we arrived at our check in time of 4 pm the property was not ready for our stay. It had not been cleaned, food was in the sink, dirty overall, no sheets on the beds, no clean bath linens, a non-working refrigerator. We were a bit upset to say the least. So, the stay started as a low one star. I have been in property management for over 40 years and I know STUFF happens. It was a Sunday when we checked in. I immediately contacted management and their response moved the rating back to a 5. Of course, they apologized but then they got busy. In a little over an hour a cleaning crew showed up and put the house right. A new refrigerator was delivered the next day. During the time it took to correct the issues they stayed in touch with me through phone calls and texts, so I knew exactly what was going on. The rest of our stay went off without a hitch. The only disappointment with our stay was the downstairs unit was a bit "rustic". Not as nice as the upstairs but certainly acceptable. Would we stay here again? Absolutely because of the way management responded to our issues on a Sunday afternoon.

Wonderful!
Excellent location – within 40 minutes of three state parks with lots of manatees and about a mile to an airboat ride. Wonderful house!

Time Well Wasted.
We had a great time. House was wonderful and when owner's were contacted with questions they responded quickly. Screened porches were well used. Beds were very comfortable. Be sure you don't mind stairs as that is the only way to main living area. The Upper Deck restaurant, right over the water was an easy 1/3 mile walk. "Time Well Wasted" was a good choice. We will use Star5Vacations again with no hesitation.
