3/3 ON WEEKI WACHEE RIVER

THIS HOUSE IS DIRECTLY NEXT DOOR TO VRBO PROPERTY ID 2023489

Congratulations, you have just happened upon the absolute perfect get away destination. This gorgeous mid-century modern home will give you a unique perspective of unspoiled Florida living. This 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom and 1726 sq ft hidden treasure is nestled under the high tree canopies and sits directly on the edge of the meandering crystal clear spring waters of the Weeki Wachee river.

The home has recently been beautifully remodeled and decorated. The living and dining space flow through double french doors into the enclosed and finished Florida room. The panoramic views through the floor to ceiling windows beg you to step outside to enjoy the breath taking views first hand of the winding river. The large wooden deck sits over the rivers edge allowing you to sit peacefully and enjoy natures wonder. Sturdy stairs just off of the deck allow you direct access down into the cool blue waters so you can enjoy kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming and more right from your back yard. There are 4 - single person kayaks for you to enjoy.

Each bedroom is nicely sized and the house sleeps up to 10 comfortably. The eat-in kitchen with vintage refrigerator has plenty of room and is fully equipped for any cook to prepare their fresh catch of the day. The cool blues on the walls complemented by the warm earth tones mimic the natural surroundings and have you feeling serenity and complete relaxation whether you are inside or out.

Even though you may feel deep in nature and secluded from the world, you are only minutes away from SR 50, 15 minutes away from the Suncoast Parkway and less than an hours drive from the Tampa International Airport. Weeki Wachee Springs State Park home to the world famous Weeki Wachee Mermaids and Buccaneer Bay is 5 minutes away. Rogers Park & Boat Ramp is less than 10 minutes away.

You truly will leave this vacation home feeling relaxed, refreshed and revitalized. Many book their next reservations before the end of their stay. The hardest part will always be packing up and saying good bye until the next time. Schedule your trip now before the calendar fills up.

My husband and I love springs, kayaking, and paddleboarding, this was a perfect place for all of this and more. We grilled, relaxed in the water with our morning coffee, and caught a mermaid show at the nearby Weeki Watchee State Park. The home is perfect for a couple or a family and Amy is a great host. We loved the old Florida quiet feel of the area and home. We will be back for more paradise by the spring for sure!

Review for Don Lane River House – Weeki Wachee Springs Overall Experience: 9.8/10 Property Rating: 7.5/10The Don Lane River House is beautifully located in one of the most desirable parts of the Weeki Wachee River, offering stunning views and a peaceful setting. If you’re looking for a scenic getaway, this location truly delivers. It came with four kayaks, which was a great bonus, and I also rented a Go Boat from MyRamBoat.com just down the river – the lady there was amazing, and I highly recommend checking her out for a fun water experience.However, while the location is nearly perfect, the house itself fell short in many ways, mainly due to the lack of basic amenities and maintenance issues.The Good: Amazing Riverfront Location – Peaceful, scenic, and ideal for kayaking and relaxing. Plenty of Floats & Safety Gear – Nice to have extras like pool noodles and life vests. Kayaks Included – A great perk for exploring the river.The Not-So-Good: Lack of Basic Amenities – No dish soap, no sponges, no laundry detergent, and very minimal kitchen essentials. If you plan to cook, bring your own cookware, as the non-stick pots and pans are so scratched they are unusable (microplastic concerns). Only a few usable dishes for baking. Structural Issues & Safety Hazards – The uneven floors made it difficult to walk around comfortably, especially for someone with back problems. It was actually nauseating at times and would be a nightmare for anyone in a wheelchair.

Think the overall experience was great, but some of the pictures did not represent what was actually on-site (patio furniture, grill, etc.). But this did not diminish desire to return. A truelly beautiful setting and house.

THE HOUSE & LOCATION WERE GREAT. VERY QUIET & RELAXING. FROM THE BACK DECK WE SAW MANATEES, DOLPHIN, OTTERS & SQUIRLS, WHICH MY GRANDDAUGHTER LOVED FEEDING. OUT THE FRONT DOOR, WE HAD DEER, TURKEYS & RABBITS. GRANDDAUGHTER'S FAVORITE, THE BUNK BEDS. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR PIECE OF PARADISE.

We’ve never been to Weeki Wachee springs before and we got so lucky staying here. The location can’t be beat and all the neighbors are nice and friendly. We loved kayaking up and down the river with the kayaks provided at the rental. We saw a manatee swim by the house and numerous turtles and interesting fish. My kids loved jumping into the river from the rope swing. The current is pretty strong so life vests are highly recommended for kids. The rental itself is clean and fully stocked with everything we needed even board games. We really want to come back during manatee season next time!

Our group of 6 enjoyed staying here very much. We especially enjoyed the living room, dining and kitchen areas. The 2 regular bedrooms were very comfortable. We loved the kayaks and our chance nature encounters with deer and wild Turkey. The bunk room is obviously meant for kids and we did not find that room comfortable and functional as an adult. This could be changed by some simple additions including mattress pads on the beds, improved comforters or blankets, a side table by each bunk, and some kind of dresser or side table to put your bath items on. Literally invest $200 and this could be fixed. Also, the outdoor furniture is similar and not very comfortable. Just needs a slight upgrade and the area would be so much more enjoyable. Overall though, very enjoyable!

Overall we had a great stay here. The house and property look a bit more dingey than the pictures but it is a lakehouse afterall. The kitchen could use some help. The oven is about 100 years old and the stove takes forever to heat. There is very little you won't have to buy. Things like extra toilet paper, trash bags, etc. are not included. But it was all worth it for the view and peace on the river. So much to do and see and it's so serene. We would frequent this place over and over again if it weren't for the fact that we got hit with a hefty fee after checkout because we had turned some white towels slightly pink in the washer. When I saw this, I threw one in with our white load and used bleach. Took it right out. When I saw the fee I contacted the owner and kindly told her bleach takes it out in one wash. She scolded me for having the nerve to suggest bleach when she had been kind enough to extend our checkout time. According to her, that extra time should've been spent bleaching towels. And maybe we should have. Hwever in my mind, I figured any competent person would know to use bleach. If I thought otherwise I obviously would've washed them myself, we just ran out of time. I explained to the owner several times bleach is all it takes to which she finally replied "I don't do the cleaning." So maybe tell your cleaning lady! Lol. I couldn't believe someone can just charge you for 3 towels because they're too lazy to wash them. Lesson learned on my part - don't assume people know how to do laundry. I had heard from friends who stayed there that the owner can be unreasonable so I guess it wasn't a total surprise. It's worth noting that especially because she gave us a late checkout, we left the house in tip top shape, which we would've done regardless. We aren't careless people who trash the place. Just didn't realize bleach was the make or break. Anyway, if you visit this house you will have a wonderful time. Just beware you may be charged for some extra stuff at the end. And you should probably bring your own towels.

I come to this part of Weeki Wachee at least once a year. I've stayed at the other houses here, and they all got 5 stars. Sorry but can't give 5 stars. I'm just glad my family and the kids didn't come, only a couple of friends joined. Or it would've been a stressor and a let down. VRBO doesn't tell you in big bold print what is not provided. I DID read that we have to bring our own "paper products" such as toilet paper. So I did bring some but we didn't need extra. There was no laundry detergent... for a 5 day minimum stay at a river where clothes get dirty n wet. Come on. We had to get dishwasher detergent + sponge, Because only two dishwasher pods were provided... one was hidden under some towels. I re-washed their plastic plates with one of these pods in the dishwasher on the last day. We even had to get our own body wash / bath soap. Most places provide body wash, shampoo, conditioner. Just get some cheap ones. Just give people a vacation rather than have the woman pack n worry. Basically - Nothing is provided. For only $20 there could be: (1) laundry detergent, (2) bath soaps, (3) dishwasher detergent + sponge. It is not easy to get in and out because of the broken road. The deer and turkeys were cute. The mosquitoes were poisonous, and probably carry deer tick = Lyme disease.
