Property was sparkling clean. Bed was excellent. We had everything we needed. Host was helpful and the area was peacsful and quiet. Fishing was very good and made a couple of friends with three small alligators and turtles. Wish the tv had better selections, but we will still go again.

Cute little place, had everything we needed. Little firepit, private dock with canoes and fishing poles. We really enjoyed the direct water access to the small lake. There were some ground hornets while launching the boat which we informed owner of so they can address that. Owner was very responsive to questions. I was a little nervous about the neighborhood driving in but nobody bothered us. The entire property was fenced so my pup could enjoy the yard with privacy fence on the 2 sides. It’s been 10 days since we left so I called about my refundable deposit which I hadn’t received back and VRBO said they would process it since owner has confirmed no damage. Overall we would stay again.

Cute pet friendly cottage in Inverness Cute little cottage on canal, pet-friendly, fenced in yard, very clean and well stocked. Located in quiet subdivision convenient to Silver Springs, 3 Sisters Springs, Rainbow Springs and Weeki Wachee Springs. Mertailer’s Aquarium is a must-see for excellent fish exhibits and mermaid show. Outside seating area and fire pit were neat and clean. Michele was quick to respond to questions, check-in was easy. Highly recommend Fisherman’s Restaurant which is right down the road for dinner and St Johns Tavern in Crystal Springs for lunch.

Cozy waterfront cottage My husband and I stayed for a long weekend. In Florida to visit family. The place was just what we needed, Cozy, comfortable, and clean. The decor was so cute. Our granddaughter came over and we fished off the dock (Catch and release) and she caught approx 10 fish,she had a blast. Thank you for allowing us to have a wonderful time.
