Cute little place, had everything we needed. Little firepit, private dock with canoes and fishing poles. We really enjoyed the direct water access to the small lake. There were some ground hornets while launching the boat which we informed owner of so they can address that. Owner was very responsive to questions. I was a little nervous about the neighborhood driving in but nobody bothered us. The entire property was fenced so my pup could enjoy the yard with privacy fence on the 2 sides. It’s been 10 days since we left so I called about my refundable deposit which I hadn’t received back and VRBO said they would process it since owner has confirmed no damage. Overall we would stay again.

Cute pet friendly cottage in Inverness
Cute little cottage on canal, pet-friendly, fenced in yard, very clean and well stocked. Located in quiet subdivision convenient to Silver Springs, 3 Sisters Springs, Rainbow Springs and Weeki Wachee Springs. Mertailer’s Aquarium is a must-see for excellent fish exhibits and mermaid show. Outside seating area and fire pit were neat and clean. Michele was quick to respond to questions, check-in was easy. Highly recommend Fisherman’s Restaurant which is right down the road for dinner and St Johns Tavern in Crystal Springs for lunch.

Cozy waterfront cottage
My husband and I stayed for a long weekend. In Florida to visit family. The place was just what we needed, Cozy, comfortable, and clean. The decor was so cute. Our granddaughter came over and we fished off the dock (Catch and release) and she caught approx 10 fish,she had a blast. Thank you for allowing us to have a wonderful time.

Peaceful and enchanting back yard
Although the weather was chilly for Florida. The afternoon sun warms the backyard and the dock was perfect for a couples outdoor dining. The fish were not biting but we counted 18 species of birds! Great getaway. The house is small but plenty of room to spread out and relax in the common area and the decor was spot on. Found a single serve coffee pot under the kitchen counter. Plenty of blankets and towels. The curtains were thin so adding blinds would be a good upgrade. Enjoyed our stay.

We gave it to Stars
To start off it was quiet but if you want isolation away from others this is not for you there are homes all around it. The lake in the back was actually a canal did not catch but two catfish in 5 days that we were there. We drove around to see if there was any other place to go fishing and there was not unless you had a boat. The inside was clean but the cookware is old. They did not have blinds on the windows especially in the bedroom where it's most private the curtains on the windows are the same as the pictures they are thin and at night when the light is on you can see everything inside so there is no privacy at night. So we ended up using a couple of throw blankets to cover the windows in the bedroom which helped especially in the morning when the daylight shines through.We will not be coming back.
