A Great Retreat From Devices

If Kayaking, boating, fishing or plain relaxing is what you want this is the place. Close to the Weeki Wachee River, the ride there on the canal showed us Dolphin, tons of Turtles and Manatee. Can’t help but be mindful looking at the water in the yard. Make a fire and relax outside. In the middle of everything with super responsive and helpful hosts this vacation was a home run!

Weeki wachee week

This was our first vacation rental and it was awesome. Better then a hotel and instant access to the weeki wachee river. Lots of space for a family of 4. Pictures are exactly what is advertised on the website. Plenty of amenities and a nice neighborhood. Five star all around.

Family fun

We stayed for spring break 2025. Our kids enjoyed the games and toys and bunk beds very much. The canoe was perfect for our first paddling trip with a baby and two young kids. The owner/manager responded timely to questions so that’s helpful.

WE LOVED OUR STAY

Everything was just as promised. Kelly, our host, was very gracious and had everything we could need for us to really enjoy our stay. There were more than enough kayaks, and a canoe. The sleeping arrangements worked perfectly for us. Kelly is very friendly and will make your stay a good one. We really did enjoy our stay with them!

Lovely and Fun Property

Our stay (extended family of 9) was wonderful thanks to being in a well appointed, convenient home! Kelley and David were wonderfully responsive to any inquiries and requests. Plenty of water crafts, convenient outdoor seating, and during our week there were a couple of manatees hanging out in the canal! A great time was had by all.

Kayaks Lovers

If you love to kayak and you have a group that needs 4 bedrooms this is a great place to stay. 2 great floating docks and you can swim in the canal that goes into Weeki Wachee. Well supplied house. Super nice attentive hosts. Lots of floats, toys, kayaks, canoes, Manatees swimming with a baby up and down the canal. Great getaway spot.

Great backyard and very Weeki experience!

This property was nicely done as a rental. Very clean! All of the light switches were labeled. Lots of room to spread out. All of the local Weeki art on the walls added to the Weeki experience. There were plenty of games to keep us all entertained. We really enjoyed being in a quiet, pet friendly house, with a big backyard, only a short paddle to the clear Weeki water. All of the kayaks/canoes/paddles/life jackets were in good shape. On the river, we saw manatees and deer. We also enjoyed the firepit every night. There were plenty of outdoor chairs outside to sit by the fire. This house had everything we needed for a pleasant stay!

Wonderful location

We were a little concerned given a hurricane had just went through a few days prior, but everything was perfect. Dave reached out a few days in advance to reassure us that they were prepared and didn’t expect any issues from the storm. When we arrived everything was perfect, you wouldn’t have even known there was a hurricane a couple days prior. Plenty of kayaks, canoes, and life jackets and the weather was perfect. The kids loved the playing on the lily pad mat. We were able to watch the mullet jumping, see turtles, manatees and even a dolphin swimming through the canal right from the dock. We really enjoyed our stay here and can’t wait to come back.

Great summer vacation

We loved the property and location. It was a short paddle to the hot dog boat and the clear water of the springs. The home was clean and the owners are very responsive. If we had questions or comments we would get a response immediately. The home was stocked with towels, paper towels, toilet paper, soap, shampoo and conditioner. We had a blast, thank you so much Kelly!

Paddlers Point A+

The house exceeded our expectations. It had everything we needed for 3 families. The kids room had a slider so it kept out the noise. Game room fun for all. Plenty of kayaks to use which were in excellent condition. The washer and dryer was a plus. The location was perfect. They also had 2 docks which was convenient. Make sure you get a chance to use the outside shower!! Kelly and Dave were very accomodating. Will definitely rent in the future.

We had an awesome family get away at paddlers point and highly recommend both the house and the owners who were terrific! The location of the house is great, its on a nice canal just a short paddle to the main river and springs. The house was clean and had everything from comfortable beds, fully loaded kitchen to kayaks, canoes, fire pit, corn hole/games, even washer/dryer. the house has a terrific large outside deck area for entertaining, plenty of seats and very nice/large floating docks with a huge swim/lounge pad. its an awesome place to rent
