Manatee Cove Compound Retreat Star5Vacations

MANATEE COVE Swim and paddle with the manatees! WATERFRONT attached apartment right on the main Weeki Wachee River -- not a canal! This is a very rare 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom house 1/2 acre property with 130' of waterfront offering uninterrupted views. The water from the Weeki Wachee magnitude one spring is lovely and clean and stays at 72 to 74 year round. While most of the manatees are in the river from December to April guests spotted at least one almost every day in the summer. The water is shallow and sandy immediately in front of the house so it is safe for kids. You can wade in directly from the dock and play on a large sandbar.

Two bedrooms have a queen bed, one bedroom has a double, a large master bedroom with a king bed and sitting area with views of the river, and two common areas have pullout sofa beds. One pullout is a king size and the other is a queen size. Nearby are excellent hiking trails if you want to take a break from the water. 5 singles, 2 junior, 1 SUP (kayaks may vary, additional rentals available nearby) Towels provided. All bedding is brand new.

There is also a fenced yard to enjoy and plenty of parking with a gate for security. Fishing charters, kayak rentals and boat rentals nearby. Also lots of restaurants from fish fry chow down to finer dining. The BBQ and fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishes and two full kitchens that has everything you need to cook in your Manatee Cove vacation home.
