Has a great location, private dock (with kayaks & canoe), & nice screened in patio. So close to weekie wachee park (mermaid show & buccaneer bay). We had more fun at this place (swimming & boating) than any other place we visited. Fast & friendly owners, with great communication. ##### Tammy D.

Bonus with the kayaks. The trailer is a little outdated but was still nice. The bathroom and kitchen/living area is renovation.

The watercrafts were in poor shape but we brought our own and it was amazing to be near the river. The place was clean and had all of the basics and comforts of home. The floor is not steady and I'm not sure what that is about but we loved our stay there!!! ##### Julie Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LISA L. 31 Jan 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Long family Great host. Their contractor or handyman did a poor job. Decorated beautifully. Comfortable furniture. Quite neighborhood. Cleaning lady did basic good cleaning But at home I help my daughter clean her AirBB. We wipe everything down.. Old dried up food at bottom of trash can. And dirty windowsills. None of this is the owners fault. I would absolutely stay their again. Owners need better cleaning services. And a contractor that knows how to read a measuring tape. Lol. The hosts always responded immediately. The trailer is very homey and comfortable.can ##### LISA L.

This home had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped and had plenty of towels provided. We enjoyed drinking our coffee out on the dock in the morning and grilling in the evening. Like others have mentioned, this is a trailor and is outdated but it is clean and was all we needed. I feel like the price was fair for this home. We werent looking for anything "fancy" but somewhere that was clean that we could shower, eat, and sleep and this house met that ticket. The house is on a canal and the water wasnt clear, but it was a short kayak trip to the clear water on the main part of the river. The hosts were very responsive and communication was clear. Thank you for hosting us! ##### Jay and Les Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 27 Sept 2023 Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Keely's Batchlorett The floors in this mobile home were soft. The under floor needs replacing. The wooden deck chairs were filthy as were the deck tables. The entry door would only open half way. The interior door in the small bedroom would only opened half way. The exterior skirting was filthy and all falling off. But, we all made the best of it and had a good time. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Cyndi M. 21 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy #### It was an okay stay The space was clean, kitchen and bath had been updated and the kitchen was well stocked. The bed was soft with a thick memory foam mattress and nice linens. The owner was very responsive to a couple of problems we had. We enjoyed the area and the neighbor hood was fine This is a 50 ish year old mobile home and it VERY MUCH shows its age. There were quite a few things that were in disrepair inside and out. It felt old. My biggest complaint is the owner has chosen not to have pictures of the bedrooms in the listing. They are not updated. The walls are water rippled, the ceilings are low. They have old dark brown carpet that is fraying in the door frame. Had I seen pictures of the bedrooms I likely would have passed on this rental. ##### Cyndi M.

It might just be a trailer from the outside but everything on the inside has been updated. Extremely clean! Comfy beds, great shower, washer and dryer in the unit. We brought our own kayaks but there are numerous available for use along with a canoe and a paddle boat. It would be hard for older people to get in and out of the kayaks since there is a bit of a drop, but we were able to get on right off the dock. Great ladder for swimming in the river! Bonfire pit, Adirondack chairs, screened in back porch with super comfy chairs, and we loved the completely fenced in backyard since we were able to bring our two dogs. They truly lived their best lives! We kayaked the river on Friday, rented a pontoon boat Saturday for scalloping and were sad when we had to leave Sunday. A ton. Screened in back porch with super comfy chairs, and we loved the completely fenced in backyard since we were able to bring her two dogs. A ton of cute local restaurants all within 3 miles. Definitely plan on staying here again!! Great communication with the owners as well, we appreciated sharing your place with us! ##### Stacy G.

The location and easy access to the water was great. Having the kayaks to use was great fun. Property is dated but has been upgraded somewhat and was reasonable for the price. Floors have been redone and you can see daylight between wall and floor in back bedroom. Dont stay here if you are looking for perfection, but for the price in this location, on the water its very reasonable. Check in and out process were great. ##### Reginald P.

I knew that the trailer was old. But it didn't have to look old or smell old. I'm not being picky there are issues but not too hard to over come if you set your mind to it. The bed was comfy, the water was hot and had good pressure. The location was good. Pretty much everything outside needed some wet N forget and I wouldn't use the fan on the screen porch if it were a 100 degrees outside. Which it wasn't it was a chilly weekend for April. ##### margaret a.

We saw a manatee as soon as we arrived, an owl came to sit right next to us for an hour or so, wood storks, and more. We spent the day kayaking and enjoying all the springs has to offer. It’s not fancy and yes, some new living room furniture would help for rainy days inside; but it’s clean and a good value and we were very grateful for a last minute booking request approval! ##### Lara K.

Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2018 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah H. 16 Oct 2016 #### Not one detail was overlooked We had a fantastic stay at Mermaid Cove. The owners made sure that everything we needed (or could need) was thought of....even a citronella candle on the porch with a lighter sitting on top of it!! The location was perfect...right on the water. The kayaks were a great plus! We had a lot of fun paddling around. The only complaint we have is that the floor had some warping and the front door was difficult to open widely enough to bring our stuff in. But for us, this was a minor thing considering that we spent most of our time outside. ##### Sarah H.
