Hernando Beach is a quintessential, original FL community of backyard canals. The area where this home is located has a small coastal town feel. People come for scallop season and fresh seafood.

5 Star Experience!


Hernando Hideaway was spectacular! We traveled from Ohio with an 8month old and a 5 year old for a family vacation. The house was impressively stocked with everything you would need and more, specifically geared toward children. The attention to organization was out of this world! The cleanliness and non decor were the cherry on top. Josie was responsive to any question and concerns we had. 5 STAR property and host!

Awesome Family Experience!


Loved loved loved this rental. Spent a long weekend at the house with 2 families, 4 kids and 4 adults. The property was well maintained and really catered to families. From the toiletries, the snack box, and the smore station, everything was well thought out. Josie was super responsive. And the location was perfect. Spent a day at Pine Island, a day at Weeki Wachee, and rented a pontoon for the day. Couldn't have asked for a better trip. Thank you so much!

Luxurious Stay at Hernando Hideaway!


This vacation rental was perfect for our family's annual scalloping trip. There was plenty of room for our family of four. The location is convenient to the marina and boat ramp as well as restaurants and grocery stores. We loved being able to dock our boat with quick access to the Golf and enjoy all the extras that made us feel at home. We enjoyed the stocked coffee and tea bar. The full s'mores station was a big hit for the kids as was the pool with all pool toys waiting for them. The hosts have thought of everything. Pack your clothes and food and the rest is covered. We will definitely be back next year!
