February getaway
Overall a great experience. We practically lived on the water. The weather was great and all of the accommodations were just as described. It was requested that all towels be washed and folded which eliminates taking a shower the morning of departure. Mattresses were a little firm for us but that’s not unusual with most rentals. I would definitely recommend this house and area to future travelers.

Excellent location and 5-star property!
Message to Evolve, for 6455 W Richard Dr.With family and friends we have rented waterfront properties on Weeki Wachee River several times, and this home is one of the very best if not the best property that we've ever seen!The decorations as "Turtle Cove" are done with style and artful taste; there is a decorated and lit Christmas tree, plants, turtle decals, statues, both indoors and outside are really cute, upbeat, and just lovely!Several bottles of nice assortment of wine where waiting for our arrival as a pleasant surprise!There is helpful assortment of many spices, coffee, condiments, and cleaning supplies, as well as high-quality cutlery, utensils, and all other necessities in the kitchen.Bathroom, personal hygiene and other supplies for guest use (in case you forgot any) were great, from toothpaste and brushes, to threads and needles, to all things you may need – what a great and caring idea!The house itself and all amenities are updated and maintained with meticulous and generous attention – it deserves our highest appreciation! Water quality in the canal was very good, it was clear and we have seen many fish, turtles and manatees. At the end of the canal near the house, there is a nightly operated fountain, which is nicely lit and adds to the charm of the place. The docks are very well maintained and are easy and convenient to use for kayaking and fishing.Proximity to Weeki Wachee river is great, and we paddled there every day.Five stars property!!!

Amazing!
We had an amazing time staying st Turtle Cove. We’ve stayed on Weeki Wachee before and this was such a great experience staying with the entire family. The location was convenient and the home was beautiful. Denise was so accommodating and was incredibly flexible and generous when we contacted her about extending our reservation and adding family members to our stay. The home had everything we needed and more and was quite comfort for a large group. The entire family was so grateful for the hospitality and wonderful memories we made staying the weekend at Turtle Cove. We are looking forward to returning in the future. Thanks again Denise.

Fun time
This was a relaxing slow paced vacation that we all needed! It was convienient to shops and dinning and the kayaks were so much fun. Would have loved some instructions about the waterway, where the canal leads too and ways to get there. Loved the property , thank you for having us!
