This place is a cute mobile home. Has a great location, private dock (with kayaks & canoe), & nice screened in patio. So close to weekie wachee park (mermaid show & buccaneer bay). We had more fun at this place (swimming & boating) than any other place we visited. Fast & friendly owners, with great communication.

We had a wonderful time at the river! This home had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped and had plenty of towels provided. We enjoyed drinking our coffee out on the dock in the morning and grilling in the evening. Like others have mentioned, this is a trailor and is outdated but it is clean and was all we needed. I feel like the price was fair for this home. We werent looking for anything "fancy" but somewhere that was clean that we could shower, eat, and sleep and this house met that ticket. The house is on a canal and the water wasnt clear, but it was a short kayak trip to the clear water on the main part of the river. The hosts were very responsive and communication was clear. Thank you for hosting us!

The rental is right on the water and the area is beautiful. The watercrafts were in poor shape but we brought our own and it was amazing to be near the river. The place was clean and had all of the basics and comforts of home. The floor is not steady and I'm not sure what that is about but we loved our stay there!!!

We had the best time staying at the Mermaid Cove. Bonus with the kayaks. The trailer is a little outdated but was still nice. The bathroom and kitchen/living area is renovation. The outdoor screen porch was so great to sit out and enjoy in the morning and evenings.

The space was clean, kitchen and bath had been updated and the kitchen was well stocked. The bed was soft with a thick memory foam mattress and nice linens. The owner was very responsive to a couple of problems we had. We enjoyed the area and the neighbor hood was fine This is a 50 ish year old mobile home and it VERY MUCH shows its age. There were quite a few things that were in disrepair inside and out. It felt old. My biggest complaint is the owner has chosen not to have pictures of the bedrooms in the listing. They are not updated. The walls are water rippled, the ceilings are low. They have old dark brown carpet that is fraying in the door frame. Had I seen pictures of the bedrooms I likely would have passed on this rental.

We enjoyed our stay! Great location and got to see fireworks for the new year. Everything needed inside, clean and the beds/ couches were comfy. Spent most of the time on the dock or screened in porch. Thanks for hosting!!
