About this house rental
Canal-front home: open for biz
The Canal Cottage is a beachy home set along a saltwater canal in Hernando Beach, Florida. We are only 15 minutes by boat to the peaceful waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Back on land, our grassy yard invites you to relax – among swaying palms, a hammock and canal views that may include dolphins. Eat al fresco as neon sunsets swirl across the sky. Or talk for hours around our fire pit.
We also have cornhole and fishing rods, plus a dock with two v-hull boat lifts (each holds 10,000 lbs).
The space
* Please note: All is well in Hernando Beach as Hurricane Ian never approached our region. We are open and would love to see you!
Inside, our beachy decor makes you feel like you’re on vacation. Unwind in the living room where white and lagoon blue furnishings evoke an ocean palette. And yes! Colorful fish sculptures adorn some walls.
Our kitchen has everything you’ll need, including lots of counter space and stainless steel appliances. Plus a coffee & tea bar with K-Cup pods, tea bags, hot chocolate in winter and more. Steps away, our light-filled dining room looks out to the canal and yard. With a table that seats 8 people, it’s a great spot to play card and board games. Or enjoy quiet time with puzzles and books.
And when it’s time to call it a night, retreat to our three bedrooms for a good night’s sleep. Drift away among pastel blue and green walls, picture windows and sea-inspired bedding. This is the good life!

Loved Reel Serenity so much. Highly recommended if you have your own boat - we brought our 21’ bay boat and the boat lift(s) were perfect. Nice wide and deep canal system, and just a few minutes out to the Gulf. The house was very clean and very nicely stocked with everything we needed. Thanks for everything, Terre

Quick Winter Break trip
This property is a gem! Quiet, absolutely beautiful neighborhood, right on the canal. The home has so many personalized touches, makes you never want to leave. If you are looking for outdoor living, this is the place for you! The private dock was my favorite place to be, actually watched a dolphin swim by and play in the canal!
Terre was super helpful, and checked in on us via text, which was much appreciated .
We loved our stay so much, we look forward to returning!

Home was exactly as described. Terr had a Christmas tree and alot of extras. Was a nice surprise. The house was very clean and roomy. We enjoyed the games and most of all the boat lift for our boat. Nice ride to the gulf. Perfect for everyone and also our doggies.

Amazing waterfront, Florida home
We brought our boat up for scalloping season and had a blast. The house was tidy and very tastefully decorated. Also, the home was stocked with everything we needed for home cooked meals, barbecues, and keeping our boat on the lift. We highly recommend this property and would definitely stay again.

Amazing Thanksgiving weekend!
We spent our Thanksgiving weekend in Hernando Beach and Terre's place made it incredible! From sipping coffee to cocktails by the fire pit it was amazing! The house made cooking our Thanksgiving meal a breeze as the kitchen was very well equipped. Very comfortable beds made for a good night's sleep. Check in and check out was super easy. Thank you Terre...we will be back!

Clean and Comfortable
It was the two of us and our fur kids, Lucy & Cooper. The furniture was appropriate for each room, night stands dressers, big closets and we loved having two options for dining on the big table or the one where the TV was located. We bought local seafood the first night which was very good visited a few restaurants, markets and a bait shop. The people we met were very helpful and the neighbor were friendly. We spent most of our time on the dock fishing and caught several good size sail cats which we kept for our next seafood dinner. There was always a breeze the humidity was low even though we had daily showers which is common in Florida. We would highly recommend and would stay there again.

This was a great location to take the boat out to sandbar, to go scalloping, to watch the sunset
This was a spacious house that was very cozy. We had 4 adults and 4 teenagers but we didn’t feel crowded at all. The communication with Terre was great. The house was clean and had an amazing view. We will definitely be renting this home again.

Excellent experience!
We had a great time here. The house was very clean and exactly as described in the ad. There were plenty of extra towels to use and the kitchen was fully stocked.
Just five minutes away were some great local restaurants to eat.
The boat ramp was very close by. Not to mention there is easy access to the gulf from the home. We will definitely stay here again!
