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.
Peaceful location. Deer, Turkey and other wildlife walking around. Manatee swimming by in the river. All included appliances working in good condition. Clean and comfortable living areas.

Amazing location on the river. The place was perfect for my large family, with plenty of sleeping space, bathrooms and a huge living room where we could all wind down after an adventurous river day. 10/10

Great!
Beautiful, natural and private location. With only a few neighbors, directly on the river and surrounded by nature preserve and state park, we saw deer and wild turkeys daily. One day there was an otter along the far bank. It was end of season for manatees, but one went by several days headed out to the bay. Always visited by squirrels and occasional ibis when relaxing on the deck. Terrific kayaking. Not good for swimming as the current is quite strong. Pleasant escape!

Gorgeous Location House lacking
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.

Quiet with abundant nature
Quiet place, loved being on the river, seemed like a nature preserve. Saw many different animals and a manatee swam by. Ran out of paper towels, garbage bags and dish washer packets.

Spring Paradise
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!

Beautiful place, but don't recommend
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.
