Lake Retreat with Pool & Private Boat Ramp 4 BD/2BA on Lake Tsala Apopka
Welcome to your perfect getaway on the water!
This spacious 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom lakefront home in Hernando offers the ultimate blend of comfort, relaxation, and outdoor adventure.
Step into a bright and airy living space designed for families or small groups, featuring a fully equipped kitchen, cozy living room, and comfortable sleeping arrangements for up to 8 guests. Outside, unwind in your private screened-in pool, solar heated pool, perfect for year-round enjoyment.
Bring your small water craft/jet ski/kayaks and water toys! With a private dock and small boat ramp directly on a lake canal on pristine Lake Tsala Apopka, you'll have easy access to boating, fishing and kayaking right from your backyard.
Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee on the patio, casting off of the dock, playing corn hole in the front yard or exploring nearby trails and springs, this homeoffers everything that you need for a relaxing Florida escape.
We are less than 5 miles to several very popular restaurants that are family owned and have a long standing in our town: LaPergola, Stumpknockers Inverness, The Burger Station, Sauced Hogs BBQ. We are a short drive to the local pharmacy, grocery store and farmers market.
If you are interested in taking advantage of the house's small boat ramp to do kayaking or paddleboarding on beautiful Lake Tsala Apopka and need to rent please call Easy Peasy Mobile Kayak Rental LLC. They will deliver everything that you need for an amazing adventure.
Worth the short drive: Fresh Start Donuts (get there EARLY they do run out!!), Mariana's The Stinky Rose for Italian and great pizza, Paige's for smashburgers.
Withlacoochee State Trail (10 min) is an extremely popular trail for biking, walking, running and skating. 46 mile flat terrain trail traverses rivers and forests, small town charm and railroad history.
Crystal River (25 min) is a popular place to see hundreds of manatees certain times of the year. There are manatee tours out of Crystal River, Paddletails is a well respected tour company. Three Sisters springs, connected to the bay, is an amazing place to kayak, paddle board and snorkel in too!
Ocala, FL (20+ mins) Horse Capital of the world! World Equestrian Center plus many farms and places to horseback. The Canyons Zip Lining and Adventure Park. Yummy House Ocala.
Downtown Dunnellon (15-20 min) historic village shopping, amazing Cuban sandwiches, Greek food and seafood with live music on the river! The rainbow river is also a tourist attraction as well as a local destination.
Homosassa (30 min) AMAZING scalloping certain times of the year.
Silver Springs (29 miles) - Glass bottom boat rides on the river and Zoo.
Rainbow River for tubing, kayaking or swimming in the swim area. See web site for rules and procedures.
Tampa Airport & Lowry Park Zoo - 1.5 hours
Orlando Theme Parks & Airport - 1.5 hours
Clearwater Beach - 1.5 hours (sugar sand beaches). The Palm Pavilion is a great beach bar/restaurant with the best sunsets around, excellent rum runners and award winning food. They typically have beach chairs and umbrellas available for rent. There is a municipal pay to park lot right there.
The less popular/crowded Crystal River man-made beach, Pine Island beach, and Cedar Key beach are all about an hour away.
