There are a total of 6 kayaks w/ paddles and life jackets for guests to use. Pet friendly with a $75 fee per dog. Come and experience Weeki Wachee with its unspoiled views and timeless backdrop for a one-of-a-kind vacation. An affordable getaway to enjoy all of Weeki Wachee and close enough to so many other fabulous attractions that Florida has to offer.

LIVING ROOM
The house has an open floor plan with a spacious living room with 2 comfortable couches, smart T.V., and a computer workstation with high-speed WI-FI available to connect your devices to the internet.

KITCHEN/DINING ROOM
The kitchen and inside dining area are next to the living room. The kitchen has all new basic appliances to include Keurig pod/pot coffee maker, tea kettle, blender, skillet, crockpot, large boiling pot, and toaster oven. Other basic amenities include paper towels, an assortment of pod coffees, and basic spices. The dining table sits 4-7.

BEDROOMS/BATHROOMS
The Master bedroom has a king size bed with a master bath. The master bath has a shower, and a laundry room closet with a brand-new washer and dryer, and laundry detergent pods provided. The second bedroom has a queen size bed and is next to the common area bathroom that has a shower. Both bathrooms have a set of fresh towels.

KAYAKS
There are a total of 6 kayaks, paddles, and life vests; and one of the kayaks is a perfect size for younger/smaller people to try out on the water.

OUTDOOR ENTERTAINING
Enjoy gathering outside in the screened in patio room overlooking the water with a dining table that sits 4. There is a gas grill for barbecuing and a firepit to gather around at night and share memories made from the day on the river while eating some yummy smores.

There are 3 docks that can be used to spot manatees as they swim by or try your luck at fishing from. (Florida State Fishing License May Be Required.)

RIVER ACTIVITIES
Launch into the water right from the backyard, with only a 5–10-minute paddle to the Weeki Wachee river. The river is family-friendly, perfect for wildlife viewing, and boasts some of the most beautiful scenery of any Florida waterway. The spring water stays a constant 72 degrees year-round, so it feels cool in the hot summer months and warm on a chilly winter day. Paddlers can take a break along the river and go for a dip, and various parts of the riverbank offer good stopping points for a picnic lunch. If you are a water-loving outdoors enthusiast, this river is a must. If you aren’t, you will be after a day on this river!

When you approach the Weeki Wachee River paddling from the house:

Turn right onto the river to get to Rogers Park and the Upper Deck restaurant, a popular spot to grab a drink and bite to eat while enjoying an elevated view of the water.

Or turn left to head towards the Weeki Wachee Springs State Park where you can see live mermaids perform. For anyone who prefers a guide; eco-tours are offered through the Weeki Wachee State Park and Boating in Florida. They will take tours upriver toward the headsprings while providing information about the surrounding flora and fauna, kayaking tips, and tips on river etiquette.

ADDITIONAL ATTRACTIONS
There are so many other amazing adventures that are just a hop, skip, and a jump from Weeki Wachee. Directly to the south about 50-60 miles is Tampa, Clearwater Beach, and St. Petersburg. Then to the east about 1.5 – 2 hours is Orlando and Cocoa Beach.

    This property was incredible! We had a perfect stay over the weekend and wanted for not a single thing while we were there. The place was completely stocked and exceptionally clean. Will be reminiscing about dinners in the screened-in porch and (so many) jumps off the dock for a long time to come.

    We were allowed to check in early. The house was as pictured. The dock and covered porch were great hang out spots for breakfast and after our days out on the river. The kayaks were in good shape. We did rent a round boat too. House was clean and in a great spot. Had such a great family vacation.

    Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Riverside Cabana. The house was in a good location, with plenty of restaurants and attractions nearby. We especially loved being on the canal with easy access to the Weeki Wachee river. We spent a lot of time kayaking and were lucky enough to experience many manatee sightings. The only real issues we had were intermittent wi-fi and poor phone signal (AT&T). The host was very responsive when we reached out to him, which we appreciated.

    I have stayed here before. Very nice and some great updates. New kitchen counter and sink love it!. Also new deck outside and moved kayaks to a better location. Just a great place to stay. I like that it is off the main river but not too far and its quiet. I will be back.Pet friendly which I really appreciate.Margaret Adams

    We only had a couple of questions when we arrived, which were answered promptly. Chris and Justine were great! The house had everything!!! I loved that they had cleaning supplies and soaps for the washer and dryer. We stayed over 10 days so it was really nice to have a mop and broom. We loved the bed in the master, and my husband now wants to buy that mattress haha. We fish quite a bit and just off the dock out back there were so many species. We caught largemouth bass, perch, sunnies, and a lot of mullet (which i smoked on the propane grill, which had plenty of propane and an extra full tank). (I left wood smoking chips there if anyone wants to give it a go) The ones we didnt catch but saw- i guess theres a local otter, which tried to steal our mullet on the stringer ha, snook- just cruised right in front of the dock and was easily 25, sheepshead which were in/around 7, turtles, and these really pretty green needlefish. If you're a bird watcher, you would love just sitting on the porch or docks. We even had some sort of vulture-i saw its claws haha trying to steal our bait. But seriously it was really nice sitting on the porch in the mornings and just listening to the symphony. Outstanding house, and fyi the temps went down to around 56F and the units they have worked great on heating the house/they also cool. My husband loved it so much he started looking at properties.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was perfect for our family of 4 and the waterfront location was wonderful!! The really appreciated the use of kayaks and the canal was a short paddle to the river. The boys enjoyed fishing off of the dock and we used the grill and fire pit several times. The screened porch was also a very nice place to relax and enjoy the water views. It was nice to have a large TV and comfy couch to watch the bowl games (we have had rentals before that did not). The owners were very helpful before our stay and luckily we didn’t have any issues during our stay that needed assistance, but I’m sure they would have been responsive if we did! We will definitely stay again next time we are in the area!

    The trip with our friends was excellent and we were able to try the go boats as we wanted on the river. The location of the house was in just the right spot to be able to explore the area by water. The property itself was clean and met our needs for the 2 nights we stayed there. Enjoyed being able to sit outside by a fire in the evening.

    The property had everything you needed on site! We only needed to supply the food! Our kids and grandchildren loved swimming. We even had a manatee come to our dock almost every day! It is by far the best property that we have stayed at. I have never seen Florida in that way. Now I understand what Old Florida means. Absolutely beautiful! Definitely plan on returning.

    Location was perfect. We brought out boat and had no issues accessing the river and the gulf. Only reason for the 4 starts is the house needed some updating. Back door wouldn't shut and we were not able to lock up the place while gone, also the dock was not safe to use. The owner did inform us on this issue, however 2 days before our saty. I would recommend this place because the price was right for what we got.

    Our family loved our stay. The house is right on the river. I enjoyed sitting in the screened patio enjoying the view. The kids were able to launch the kayaks provided easily & the springs itself was just a short paddle. The layout was perfect, we had enough space that we weren't right on top of each other. I am a home cooker & appreciated all the kitchen equipment & dishware provided. Communication with the hosts was easy, quick, & pleasant. We will definitely be back. Thank you for sharing your home away from home with us!

    The house was very clean and fully supplied with necessary items so we only needed to do grocery shopping for our specific tastes. The kitchen has labels on cupboards making it easy to find items and put them away. The kayaks were in good condition and we utilized them several times during our week-long visit. There was plenty of room for two couples.
