vacation rental description

Our home is a perfect place to get away, relax, unwind for a week, a month, or several months. All you need to pack are your clothes and personal items (your boat if you have one). Enjoy watching the shrimp boat fleet as it goes past your lanai as they go to work every night. Hernando Beach is a rural, residential Gulf Coast town with world class fishing. The area is famous as Tarpon Country-but there’s great fishing for Reds, Trout, Grouper, Snapper. More than one guest has caught their dinner from the dock! If lady luck is not on your side there are excellent restaurants here in Hernando Beach! If your heart is set on cooking your own seafood dinner that is not a problem. Our local fish market has locally caught fresh fish and shellfish. Shrimp, Stone Crab Claws (in season), Tuna, Grouper and Snapper are just some of the every day treats you will find our (local caught & fresh) Trader Bay Seafood Market!  Have a Kayak?  This is your place..... You can spend many hours exploring the back country waters or take a trip down the Weeki Wachee River....crystal clear and 72-degree water year round... you will most likely see  Manatee during your trip.  Tired after the trip... stop in a paddle up restaurant for a drink or food and watch the boats go past from your table on the second story deck.

You can enjoy your favorite water sport from your own dock. In the evening and early morning can watch the shrimp boats come and go. Or you can stand in the heated pool enjoying your favorite beverage watching the boats leaving for the flats or gulf. Bring your boat and follow them out as you go out to see the beautiful sunset on the Gulf of Mexico. You will have a 20 foot floating dock right outside the back door. You can also fish off the dock (all kinds of fish come through the channel with the change of tides), or just relax on the back deck and enjoy the slow pace of Florida living.

Cook your favorite meal on the LP Gas Grill while you listen to the stereo on the screened in Lanai.  The sunsets and sky are beautiful to enjoy from either the back deck, dock, Lanai or pool.   Or is you prefer at the end of the day you can relax in the oversize soaking tub in the master bath.  Then relax with a book, one of many games or movie from our extensive library.   

activities and attractions in Hernando Beach Gulf Coast Central

The Area: The home is located 10-minutes from the Weeki Wachee Springs and the Weeki Wachee Water Park. Canoe and Kayak rentals are available at the Weeki Wachee Water Park as well as two other locations on the river. The Weeki Wachee River is a State of Florida park. The river is crystal clear and in the low 70's year round. It is a pristine Florida river. During the winter Manatee swim up the river and are often seen by those going up and down the river. Wildlife abounds along the river and you may see otter, raccoons, osprey, hawks, alligators and other wildlife. The river is also excellent for a 'float' on a raft or inner tube. The Buccaneer Bay water park opens March 28, 2009. This park offers thrilling water flume rides, river boat rides and a white sandy beach.

For the boaters!!!: The 8x20 Floating dock has a Jet Ski / Waverunner dock attached so if you have one bring it with you. Power & Water are available at the sea wall so clean up of your boat after a day of fishing is easy. In addition to the two tables (with seating for 8) in the lanai an additional glass top table with seating for 4 is located on one of the two rear patios. The entire back yard is elevated and covered with brick pavers. There is parking for motor homes, large boat trailers on the adjacent lot so parking is never a problem.

Watch The Manatees Go Up the River: If you enjoy people watching you will enjoy sitting on the outside deck at one of the local restaurants watching the boats, kayaks, canoes, boats, fish and in the winter Manatees going past on the crystal clear Weeki Wachee River while you enjoy lunch, dinner or your favorite beverage. All of this is 10 minutes from your front door.

Golf: For a change of pace, there are numerous golf courses nearby, including some championship courses. Two of our local public courses are rated 9th & 48th in the country. With over 20 to choose from you will be busy if you’re a golfer.

traveler reviews for this hernando beach house rental

This place is how you spell vacation!

Cindy's Mom (Houston, Texas)
Review submitted: June 4, 2009   Date of arrival: May 23, 2009

This place is ideal for a vacation if you want to relax and unwind. The home was very clean and nice. The home has tile throughout so it is perfect for someone with a pet. We had a tough time getting our children to out of the pool (it is solar heated and screened) or to stop fishing from the dock to go check out some of the local sights. Don’t miss these: The Homosassa Springs – the park tour it is great. Crystal River – The Manatee experience or the beach at Pine Island. The Sunday of our arrival we rented a pontoon boat from a local marina and spent the day on what the locals call the flats. This is an area of shallow water the dozens of people anchor in and party, visit, swim, shell or just get some sun. The water is crystal clear and we got some nice shells. Another day we went to the local county park and swam in the Weeki Wachee River. The water was about 74 and wonderful. The next day we rented a small boat from the marina there and spend the day on the Weeki Wachee River and it was superior (don’t forget the bug spray). This is a real natural river. We saw Otter and a Manatee up close. Next time we are going to rent canoes or kayaks and go down the entire river.

It was our plan to stay here and do Disney, Wet & Wild, and Bush Gardens on day trips. The cost of the home is far less than staying in a hotel, clean, large, on the water and has a pool. We like the privacy and yet having anything you want close. We ended up not going to the theme parks and had a far better time for a great deal less money. The way things are today (we just got back) we added the trip up and we spent way less than we planned and had a much better time. We asked the children if they wanted to go to the theme parks or come back here…the vote was here. My husband is already getting his fishing gear ready for next year…. Oh, the owner has fishing gear in the home for guest to use too!

Local places to eat… the Upper Deck is great anytime… and the view from the decks is super. Bare to the Bones… this is your place for fish. Brian’s for breakfast or lunch!

Shopping is easy as a super Wal-Mart is 10 minutes from the house! Anything you would want is 15-minutes from the home. Penny’s, Target, 3-grocery stores, Home Depot, Sports Authority, Best Buy, etc. It is all nearby.

Do you get the idea we had a wonderful time? You have no idea how much we enjoyed ourselves. We will be back! . The owner is great and lives nearby.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children, people with disabilities, families with teenagers, girls getaway, pet-friendly, sight seeing, tourists without a car, romantic getaway

Owners response: Thanks for the kind words. We are not only owners but we are guests of other owners and it makes us smile when our efforts to make your stay a great one! Others have done the same for us. I am glad you discovered our little paradise! Do come back again!

This Hernando Beach waterfront house is wonderful!

Cathy (Rabun Gap, Georgia)
Review submitted: May 11, 2013   Date of arrival: September 8, 2012

My husband and I brought our 3 small dogs to stay at this waterfront pool house, while we visited for a week with my elderly parents who live nearby in Spring Hill. We needed a ground level, handicap access house that my folks could come visit with us, because where they live does not allow dogs. This house far exceeded our expectations with the lovely view of the water, boats going by, and the screened patio with the pool. The house is extremely clean and well furnished, completely stocked with anything you could need, including cooking spices and coffee filters - you can shop at the nearby grocery stores and then have bar-b-que in the back yard (we did that several nights and my parents loved it!) The neighborhood is safe and pet friendly, nice vacant lots on either side of the house to walk the dogs in. We also enjoyed fishing from the dock (the fishing tackle is provided with your rental), and we spent so much time in the pool, which was an unexpected bonus. And we took one afternoon to rent kayaks and paddle down the Weeki Wachi river, which we were thrilled to discover and we can't wait to do it again!
This listing does not do this property justice, it was so much nicer than we expected! The owner is very helpful but discreet, he is available but does not come over without letting you know he is coming, and we are so glad we stayed here. We can't wait to come back!

Wow! Home away from home.

Alive in Christ (Georgia)
Review submitted: March 5, 2013   Date of arrival: June 30, 2012

Our family of five had a fantastic time. We brought our boat and fished, swam, fished some more, and enjoyed being together. We even caught a few fish off the dock. Our three year old son thought we had moved in when we stayed at John's. He was sad to find out we had to go home.

We've been talking about vacation time recently and trying to find somewhere closer to home this year. When our son saw the pool shot of John's he exclaimed, "That's the one I've been talking about the whole time!" He has fond memories of staying here, as do we all.

We had a wonderful visit. The neighborhood was very quiet, except the 4th of July at dark-thirty. We had a front row seat and one neighbor went all out. It was fantastic and much more than I'd hoped for! The home, the weather, and the week we stayed was perfect. Thanks for opening you home to us.

I highly recommend staying here.

Owners response: Please come back! Now you know what a neat place Hernando Beach is for a vacation..... can you imagine living here? I am so lucky I do!!
