About this house rental
Welcome to your perfect getaway on the water!
This spacious 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom lakefront home in Hernando offers the ultimate blend of comfort, relaxation, and outdoor adventure.
Step into a bright and airy living space designed for families or small groups, featuring a fully equipped kitchen, cozy living room, and comfortable sleeping arrangements for up to 8 guests. Outside, unwind in your private screened-in pool, solar heated pool, perfect for year-round enjoyment.
Bring your small water craft/jet ski/kayaks and water toys! With a private dock and small boat ramp directly on a lake canal on pristine Lake Tsala Apopka, you'll have easy access to boating, fishing and kayaking right from your backyard.
Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee on the patio, casting off of the dock, playing corn hole in the front yard or exploring nearby trails and springs, this homeoffers everything that you need for a relaxing Florida escape.
We are less than 5 miles to several very popular restaurants that are family owned and have a long standing in our town: LaPergola, Stumpknockers Inverness, The Burger Station, Sauced Hogs BBQ. We are a short drive to the local pharmacy, grocery store and farmers market.
If you are interested in taking advantage of the house's small boat ramp to do kayaking or paddleboarding on beautiful Lake Tsala Apopka and need to rent please call Easy Peasy Mobile Kayak Rental LLC. They will deliver everything that you need for an amazing adventure.

The place was amazing! It was much bigger than expected. Lots of room in the common spaces. The pool was very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed. We loved playing the jumbo connect four game. I would definitely stay there again! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

The house is beautiful and the outside pool area is amazing. We spent many hours on the pool deck enjoying the birds and peaceful vibe. The host even had a Christmas tree for our holiday stay. Great property and we would definitely book again.

It was very pet friendly with a fenced in yard. The house is open and spacious and was very clean and well stocked. We came to see family that live in the area. The property was easy to get to well-maintained and comfortable.
