Planning our next trip already😜
Over all it exceeded our expectations! We loved the location near the water, charm of the home and abundance of wildlife. This homeowner loves his home and it shows. We just wished we had thought our trip through and stayed there for the entire week and commuted to Orlando. The only negative to our stay was we all bang our toes on the metal bed frames. But the mattress more than made up for the black and blue toes.

A wonderful get away
Our family of 4 enjoyed staying several days at river bend. Very clean and well equipped with everything you’re going to need! As someone else before had mentioned the only downfall is trying navigate the construction debris in the garage. You unfortunately can’t avoid it when trying to get the kayaks out. Im sure once that is removed everything will be perfect!

Had a good time with our family. The only real complaint would be having to navigate the construction debris in the garage getting the kayaks out.

Perfect house right on the river.
Cozy house on the river. Only a minute from the manatees in hospital hole, a bit of an upstream paddle to get to the pretty part of the river. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, kayaks and a grill, kitchen with everything you might need, laundry, everything you’ll need. The river is awesome!

2nd Stay at River Bend...Will be back!
We LOVE this property! So convenient to so many places on the river. A two minute kayak to Hospital Hole, five minutes by kayak to Upper Deck restaurant and a few miles downstream from Weeki Wachee Springs State Park. We saw lots of wildlife and Raymond the host did a great job communicating with us about the property. We can't wait to go back!

Location, location! Pictures don't do it justice. It is so nice and clean. This home has everything you need in the home and everything you need for the river. You can swim right in front of the house. Manatees, turtles, a dolphin, crabs, fish, otters and beautiful birds. The host is awesome, very responsive.

Great stay at River Bend
Our fourth year staying at River Bend. Very comfortable home for 6 people to spend a week as a family. Plenty of kayaks for guest use. Convenient sandbar during low tide for kids to play out of the traffic flow of the main stream.
