Mermaids, Manatees, Kayaking, Swimming in the Spring Waters of the Weeki Wachee
About this house rental
Sirens' Cove Vacation, a Mermaid Hide-a-way on the upper Weeki Wachee River where the waters are crystal clear. Located half-way between the Weeki Wachee State Park and Rogers Park, it is an ideal location to enjoy the river for a romantic get-a-way or family vacation. We welcome small, quiet gatherings but we Do Not allow large parties. The central living space has a large kitchen island to accommodate cooking and family gatherings. All recently remodeled with bamboo flooring, big screen T.V., new cabinetry and countertops, with the addition of a second bathroom, the outdoor "Bali Bathroom" in the spring of 2020. There is a large paved patio out the sliding glass doors and a large deck and fire pit dockside, on the Weeki Wachee River. The house sleeps eight; two private bedrooms, one fold-out sofa and one fold-out queen futon in the "Florida Room". Please note; The Florida Room is separate of the Main House. It has big windows with screens and ceiling fans, but there is NO heat or AC in this space. This is like sleeping in Nature, on the fold-out futon, with Hoot owls and frogs peeping at night and birds in the morning. There are musical instruments, games, indoor/outdoor carpet and a sink. Teenagers and kids will love having their own "Glamping" space. This is the real Florida, a humid sub-tropical, surrounded by springs, scrub preserve, birds, bugs and wildlife. It is a kayakers paradise and 3 to 4 kayaks are included! Enjoy this retreat on the crystal clear spring waters which maintains a cool 72 degrees year around. “The Nature Coast” awaits with Mermaids, Manatees, Swimming, Snorkeling, Sun-Bathing, Birding, Fishing, Kayaking, Paddle-boarding & more. I reccommend for you to bring some firewood, firewood, bug spray and sunscreen. Don't forget to your Mask, Fins, Snorkel, Mermaid Tail and Clam Bra.

Overall the property was beautiful and we had a wonderful long weekend in Weeki Wachee. The owner quickly got back to us with any questions. I would only suggest one thing for kayakers, the kayaks do need updated. Location was perfect and we were fortunate to have warm weather! Thanks again for sharing your slice of paradise with us!

We had a great stay. Communication was great. The property looks even better in person than the pictures. The house was great but we spent most of our time outside. Sitting on the deck in the chairs watching the spring water was super peaceful. The included kayaks were great to use. Great experience

We really enjoyed this house and location! It was perfect for my family of 5, 3 girls. 14-5 years old. We kayaked right off the dock area.
The house is beautiful inside!
Highly recommend, we’ll definitely be back!

The house was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! Pics in the listing did not do it justice. The area with the abundant wildlife around to see was absolutely amazing. Such an awesome experience! Will definitely be returning soon!

The pictures don’t do the property justice. It is nestled in a small neighborhood abundant with wildlife from squirrels, deer and turkey. The home is spacious and the kitchen has abundant counter space and essentials. The outdoor seating accommodates large families comfortably. The three tiered deck is the best commodity with shade under a larger tree!! That was our favorite! I now have to purchase the chair hammocks!!! We will be back!! The water is so clear and saw manatees, lots of fish and river otters!!

This home is the perfect location on the river. The deck is great for jumping off and lounging. We saw SO many manatees right off the deck, even a dolphin. We enjoyed tying floats to the anchor (in shed) and floating. There are flippers in the shed too, take advantage of them! It made snorkeling so much easier. While there we took a short trip (20 mins) to 7 Sister Springs and got to swim through the under water caves.
The home was clean! Had a fully stocked kitchen, plenty of blankets and towels. Communication with the owner was easy!
5.0
This property was a 10/10 for everything! Excellent communication from the property owner prior to check in- we had zero issues or concerns during our stay. The house was sparkling clean and the kayaks were ready to be dropped in the crystal clear water! We saw several deer every morning out front. I lost count of the manatees and river otters we saw right from our dock. The kids enjoyed jumping off the dock and swimming from morning till night. We can not wait to rebook this property for another stay! The water is cold and bugs come out at night so bring some bug spray and get ready for an incredible trip at this hidden little gem! Thank you Susan for hosting us and we hope to return very soon!

The house is beautiful and has everything you need. The location is ideal and we spent most of our time by the river. It was easy to communicate with the owner. The kayaks and life jackets were perfect for exploring up and down the river.

Enjoyed out stay at this property, would recommend it to anyone. Lots of wildlife sightings, deer, turkey, manatees, river otters, different species of fish. Quiet neighborhood. Property owner is easy to communicate with. If you’re looking for a place to forget about work life and have a stress free vacation, this is the place to be.

We had a great time at this property, but while visiting my wife and I were sitting on the back porch and a large gust of wind lifted their umbrella that was in their table and the stalk of the umbrella landed in the bent arm of their mermaid statue and when the wind stopped the umbrella fell and it broke the arm off. We informed the owner of this issue when we left the next day. She was very rude about the whole situation. We have a toddler so we always get the insurance just in case. She informed us that she was going to file a claim, which is fine because we were there when it happened, but her attitude is the reason I give them two stars. After this incident she texted me about another issue that apparently their lawn crew did and she accused us of doing. When we shared that we in fact never went on the side of the house and this could not have been from us she texted this, “ Well, don’t get your panties all in a knot, because I called my landscaping company about this gate. I keep it locked, and they are the only ones with the key. Apparently this was done prior to your arrival and they forgot to report it to me.” She never apologized and she decided to keep our deposit which is whatever but we don’t recommend this property based on our experience with the owner. There is another beautiful house RIGHT NEXT DOOR that we will stay in next time.

The property is absolutely amazing! We spent most our time on the dock just enjoying the view. I had read some old reviews that concerned me but, after staying there I can guarantee if you respect the rules the owner respects you and your privacy. The house was absolutely breathtaking and the view from the dock was everything and more we seen so much wildlife and enjoyed the easy kayak access often! The swinging chairs and hot tub were a great touch to the property. Overall we had a blast would highly recommend!

Sirens Cove was a beautiful property. The house was very clean, the beds were super comfortable, and it was great for my gathering. The property itself could use some love. And it is not a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom. There are 2 bedrooms and one bathroom inside the house, with an outdoor FL room that has a pull out couch, and an outdoor bathroom with no roof or lighting for nighttime use. The deck was wonderful, but both ladders for entry ans exit were not in safe usable condition. You could only walk into and out of the water from the kayak launch area which was mucky and rocky. Some of the outdoor furniture was pretty old and rusted, with older dirty cushions, but there were so many options for places to sit outside. The Hot tub was very clean and wonderful to use. The on site kayaks were old and small, so we ended up renting and paying for an outside company (Easy Peasy Rentals) to deliver some usable ones.
Overall, a beautiful place to stay that could be even more beautiful with some TLC.

We had a phenomenal experience. We basically lived outdoors and thoroughly enjoyed the deck and the kayaks. The house was very comfortable and supplied us everything we needed. Everyone agrees that we need to go back asap.

When arriving in the neighborhood you would never believe the beauty just ahead.
House was clean , very nicely decorated, and All beds were comfortable.
Best part was Susan(the host) being available and giving suggestions of local things to do.

With is perfect spot on the weeki Wachee this destination has a real artist feel. With all the mermaids and art throughout property it all makes it tied to the beauty of the river. We had so many fun adventures and even got to see a manatee or two.

My husband and I were able to take this time away from work and responsibilities and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay.
The location along the Weeki Wachee river is beautiful and serene. We’ve stayed further down river off a canal and had fallen in love with the springs and river, so staying along the area where it is crystal clear and tropical blue was such a treat.
We experienced Florida at 32 degrees and towards the end of our stay at 85 degrees! We were able to visit some nearby preserves and state parks to see wildlife and plants. We also kayaked in the Weeki Wachee a few times, relaxed in the swings on the deck, and enjoyed the hot tub. It’s fun to see turkeys during the day and hear the barred owls at night.
Highly recommend this location, this house and our host! This is a wonderfully peaceful neighborhood which is exactly the way we like it.

What a great house and location to fully enjoy the Weeki Wachee river and all it brings. The house was neat, clean and had many amenities, including a separate "florida room", hot tub, grill, all right by the deck which is right on the beautiful clear water. The neighborhood is small, private, quiet and affords a lot of wild life and natural flora viewing and appreciation (even wild turkey and deer). The decor of the house is a special touch with a mermaid vibe, which is really cute and sets the mood. Hosts were nice and very communicative, thanks for hosting this special place!

We had 2 families kids ages 8-12 and it was perfect. The house is stunning and has everything you need.. condiments, every appliance you can imagine, dishes, cooking supplies, extra bedding, towels, kayaks, inflatables… and the best spot on the River. The kitchen is beautiful and the massive island becomes a gathering spot for the family. Susan is a seasoned gracious host and we appreciated her extra efforts to make our stay even more magical. We spent much of our time outside on the deck playing games, swimming, kayaking, fishing, and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. The bathroom outside is useful so you don’t have to go inside all wet. The kids loved showering with nature and a nosey squirrel that was silly. Deer grazed in the yard early morning and at dusk. We rented a John Boat from Weeki Wachee Boat Rentals to cruise the entire river and it was simple to tie it at the dock. You can’t beat this home and spot on the River. Because there wasn’t anyone checking in/out when we arrived and departed Susan offered us a little bit of extra time and I can’t tell you how much that meant to both of our families. We are already planning our next trip.

We had an amazing time on our vacation. We absolutely loved the home, it was clean and absolutely beautiful! I was the perfect amount of space for our group of family and friends. We spent most of our time on the dock, kayaking the river, and loved having a fire in the fire pit in the evenings. Our kids had a blast playing at the dock, relaxing in the extra Florida room and playing games and musical instruments. The owner Susan was wonderful and communicated with us an answered any questions we had. We loved spending time on the weeki wachee river and hope to be back again soon! 10 stars!

Summer vacation
We enjoyed the quiet. Beautiful cool blue water. Swimming and kayaking. We were able to see manatees, deer, and a owl on our stay. The house is beautiful all the glass art as well as the beautifully done kitchen. My boys loved the so. Room for a break from the water. Playing checkers doing puzzles.

We had the best time at Susan’s house. It was perfect for our small family and we had everything we needed. This place has so much character and the setting is just magical. Wildlife is abundant and the nature surrounding the property is breathtaking. Weeki Wachi is one of our favorite places and Susan’s house allowed us to enjoy it up close! The description of her place is very clear in her posting and we found everything as we expected it to be. This is a quiet neighborhood, which we loved for our young family so we could enjoy nature and family time. Can’t wait to go back!

Absolutely the perfect location on the river. Oh the wildlife we saw!!. The condo comes with many extras, and is clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! Thanks for sharing your piece of zen with us!

Overall, great stay!!
The house is clean, beds are comfy and Susan is very responsive. The kitchen is newly renovated, beautiful, and very well stocked with utensils, dishes, and appliances. I have two small complaints. The living room furniture is outdated and not very comfy (specifically the couch) for vacation. Lastly, the patio furniture is the same. Otherwise, awesome house and great location!

Perfect: Christmas on the river!
For the past two years, we do “Christmas on the river” at Susan’s beautiful home. Every picture is accurate! After two visits of going up and down the river, we all agree that this spot is the very best place to be “in” the river. I also love interacting with the renters on the left and hearing all the children jumping off the rope a few houses down to the right. Instead of Christmas presents, we call this Christmas on the river: none of us need “stuff”, the memories we have made are priceless. We look forward to our visit in 2023.

Great location on the spring! We had a blast kayaking, floating and paddle-boarding. The house sleeps six comfortably. I would say the only downfall is having only one indoor bathroom. We made it work and fun was had by all!
