The RV is exactly as stated and right in front of the lake. You wake up to birds calling on the water and at night you can enjoy the frogs croaking. Frank’s check in video went through everything you need to know and was very helpful. He even provides a luggage cart to help you get your stuff back to the RV.

Clean and comfortable. We came to visit family and fish. The weather was lousy but we still managed to catch a couple from the dock. We brought our own kayaks although we could have used what he provided. The kayaking was wonderful. So much wildlife! Beautiful area. You are somewhat convenient to groceries and the like. The host was great and saw to it that we had what we needed. His co-host Callie was as sweet as could be! ##### Kerry D.

It was glamping at its finest. We usually stay in houses, but I didn't miss that at all! It was just enough room for two people. There was a cozy, 'hugging feel' of staying here. The memory foam bed was very comfortable. We both slept very well. The reclining couch was made more comfortable with a propping pillow behind the lower back. We spent quite a bit of time in silence, listening to the birds and frogs through the screen door, once the mosquitos moved in, after sitting on the covered deck. It was so relaxing. Although Frank (the owner) lives on the property, we never felt 'watched' or like we were invading his space. In fact, we never saw him in person, but knew he was there if we needed him. My husband loved fishing from the dock and around the shoreline. No fish were traumatized in the process, but he loved the solitude of pulling a line through the water, even in the rain. :) We would love to stay here again if we're back in the area. Thank you for a wonderful place to come back to. ##### Amy F.

Quite a few places around Inverness to eat and have drinks, we also spent a day at crystal river. The only challenge is being careful when backing out, the grounds were wet and water high so I didn't want to mess up his yard. We will return . ##### Kevin R.

Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Crystal O., Carmel, California 8 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### So happy we booked Hernando Eco Nest! What an amazing opportunity to stay at this property! It was exactly what we were hoping it was & more. It was so peaceful. Frank was extremely accommodating. We felt very safe & supported, but also almost like we were there enjoying everything all by ourselves! And the owner’s dog was a very smart, well-behaved & fun sweetheart. Very nice to have her check in with us when we were in the yard, and when we were coming back from a paddle. We used the kayaks, which we were a little nervous to do. We own kayaks ourselves, but we’ve never kayaked in a lake that likely has gators in it! We got comfortable very quickly & then it was just relaxing. We saw tons of wildlife, including a beautiful Barred Owl the evening we got there! Herons, lizards, squirrels, different types of water fowl, all different types of fish... it was like living in a nature preserve for a while. The clean & tidy accommodations were exactly what we needed... comfortable bed, water filter... everything worked well, including the AC. The lazy-boy style chairs were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, glassware & China... as well as many little conveniences you don’t normally think about buying when you plan to cook your own meals, like spices, ziploc baggies, plastic wrap, coffee & coffee filters. The TV was really nice to have when the bugs came out at night. Not an unbearable amount of bugs, but you are right on the water! We used some natural bug deterrent & that worked well, for the most part. The sounds at night were lovely! It got really loud, with all the night life out there... mostly frogs. Noisy, but a very relaxing & natural kind of noisy. :) We cannot wait to come back! And we will absolutely recommend this place to our friends & family. Thanks for everything!!! ##### Crystal O.

It had a good size refrigerator, coffee pot and microwave. We ate out mainly but did do some breakfasts and snacks in the kitchen. The bed was very comfortable - queen as stated. The air conditioning worked well. Netflix movies were available. Unlike some rv’s there was no potty smell. The outdoors is very pretty with lots of critter noises at night. It was very enjoyable. We hope to return. ##### Joan S.

Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dennis, Palmyra 17 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The setting was breathtaking with a waterfront deck and view of the preserve. Having nice kayaks available was such a plus and we thoroughly enjoyed taking them out around the area. The rv was spotless, the owner gracious, and his dog....a wonderful pup and I loved playing with her! We have told all our friends about this lakeside retreat and hope they too, get to visit! Thank you thank you! ##### Dennis Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ---
