An absolute gem of a VRBO.

This place was so awesome. It was just a long weekend getaway for the fam before school started back up and we couldn't have picked a better place. The place was recently remodeled and decorated and it's just so comfortable and clean. So many little details make this place great. Lynda is a wonderful host, super responsive and you can tell she really goes out of her way to make it a great experience. The river is a short paddle up the canal and the kids had a blast just swimming off of the dock. We even saw a pod of dolphins swim right up to the dock. It was unreal. I really can't say enough good things about this place. One of the best VRBO we've ever stayed at.

Mermaid Tails was a great house for us. We had family over while staying and the little kids loved all the playthings for children. The adults like that it is just a short paddle to the river. The house was very clean and internet service worked well for us. When an item was missing that had been shown as available with the house, the owner went to the extra effort to see that it was provided. We would definitely stay again.

Lots of fun and relaxing, too!

This is a beautiful and well-maintained property that's on the outside corner of two canals, one that provides a long view to the west.Kayaking and paddle boarding are what draw us to Weeki Wachee; this house is perfect for both! The four single kayaks were in good shape (we never took out the double). Good selection of paddles. A carpeted boat ramp makes launching easy. The singles have bow ropes attached, which make for easy towing if somebody gets tired. One of the two paddleboards is a Lifetime Freestyle XL. It's big (116" x 36"), and thus great for beginners.The house has plenty of small amenities that we appreciated: Lots of really nice art, including a fabulous mermaid painting and a sea-life filled manatee-shaped shadow box. Cable TV (vs. just streaming services). A box of charging blocks and a full set of cables. Cool selection of coffee table magazines with some I'd never seen, like AFAR. A beautiful wooden chess set.I don't know if Lynda will continue to provide bicycles in the future but I sure hope she does because we LOVE bicycling at Weeki Wachee! It's fun to explore the roads that wind along beside the canals and roll past all the interesting houses, or bike to the Upper Deck for some food. For longer rides, Cortez has bike lanes all the way to Commercial and then Commercial has concrete paths that are separated from the highway. Cycling the residental streets at night with headlamps is sublime.We liked it so much that we added on five more days!
