Peaceful stay. A+
We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was perfect, we sat on the dock with coffee in the am and sat in rocking chairs by the fire at night. Very quiet and relaxing. We plan on coming back!

Beautiful area
The camper is exactly as advertised. Clean and comfortable. We came to visit family and fish. The weather was lousy but we still managed to catch a couple from the dock. We brought our own kayaks although we could have used what he provided. The kayaking was wonderful. So much wildlife! Beautiful area. You are somewhat convenient to groceries and the like. The host was great and saw to it that we had what we needed. His co-host Callie was as sweet as could be!

This was a piece of Heaven! We had such a great time here and loved everything about the property! Frank is friendly and knowledgeable about the area, and Callie is just a doll! Great spot for a couple to escape the busy city life and enjoy down time together! Thank you for having us! We will be back!

A Cozy Waterside Retreat - Very relaxing
We truly enjoyed our weekend here at this relaxing and private get away. It was glamping at its finest. We usually stay in houses, but I didn't miss that at all! It was just enough room for two people. There was a cozy, 'hugging feel' of staying here. The memory foam bed was very comfortable. We both slept very well. The reclining couch was made more comfortable with a propping pillow behind the lower back. We spent quite a bit of time in silence, listening to the birds and frogs through the screen door, once the mosquitos moved in, after sitting on the covered deck. It was so relaxing. Although Frank (the owner) lives on the property, we never felt 'watched' or like we were invading his space. In fact, we never saw him in person, but knew he was there if we needed him. My husband loved fishing from the dock and around the shoreline. No fish were traumatized in the process, but he loved the solitude of pulling a line through the water, even in the rain. :) We would love to stay here again if we're back in the area. Thank you for a wonderful place to come back to.

Peaceful weekend getaway
It was very clean and beautiful location by the lake for a quick getaway. I loved everything but my favorite was being able to interact with the property owner's dog since I'm an avid animal lover and she was such a sweetheart 💓 Would definitely stay here again and recommend to all my friend's and family!

Get Away
Callie, with her 4 legs , greeted us upon our stay at Eco Nest which was cozy and comfortable. Bed was firm. Seemed new. Everything was in excellent working order. Very quiet and relaxing location except for the occasional boat which was expected due to location. Awaken by multiple bird calls which was a peace of heaven. Great value.

Great stay!
My husband and I stayed for 2 nights at Eco Nest and it was lovely. Frank had very precise and helpful instructions beforehand and these were all we needed. We were bummed that the weather didn't permit use of the kayaks, but maybe next time! Everything in the RV was clean and very user friendly. Would definitely recommend for a couples getaway!

So happy we booked Hernando Eco Nest!
What an amazing opportunity to stay at this property! It was exactly what we were hoping it was & more. It was so peaceful. Frank was extremely accommodating. We felt very safe & supported, but also almost like we were there enjoying everything all by ourselves! And the owner’s dog was a very smart, well-behaved & fun sweetheart. Very nice to have her check in with us when we were in the yard, and when we were coming back from a paddle. We used the kayaks, which we were a little nervous to do. We own kayaks ourselves, but we’ve never kayaked in a lake that likely has gators in it! We got comfortable very quickly & then it was just relaxing. We saw tons of wildlife, including a beautiful Barred Owl the evening we got there! Herons, lizards, squirrels, different types of water fowl, all different types of fish... it was like living in a nature preserve for a while. The clean & tidy accommodations were exactly what we needed... comfortable bed, water filter... everything worked well, including the AC. The lazy-boy style chairs were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, glassware & China... as well as many little conveniences you don’t normally think about buying when you plan to cook your own meals, like spices, ziploc baggies, plastic wrap, coffee & coffee filters. The TV was really nice to have when the bugs came out at night. Not an unbearable amount of bugs, but you are right on the water! We used some natural bug deterrent & that worked well, for the most part. The sounds at night were lovely! It got really loud, with all the night life out there... mostly frogs. Noisy, but a very relaxing & natural kind of noisy. :) We cannot wait to come back! And we will absolutely recommend this place to our friends & family. Thanks for everything!!!

This was far and above better than staying in a hotel. It was great to be able to grill my dinner, relax on the deck with cocktail in hand in such a great atmosphere. This had everything I needed.

Great location
Everything was superb. It had a good size refrigerator, coffee pot and microwave. We ate out mainly but did do some breakfasts and snacks in the kitchen. The bed was very comfortable - queen as stated. The air conditioning worked well. Netflix movies were available. Unlike some rv’s there was no potty smell. The outdoors is very pretty with lots of critter noises at night. It was very enjoyable. We hope to return.

The setting was breathtaking with a waterfront deck and view of the preserve. Having nice kayaks available was such a plus and we thoroughly enjoyed taking them out around the area. The rv was spotless, the owner gracious, and his dog....a wonderful pup and I loved playing with her! We have told all our friends about this lakeside retreat and hope they too, get to visit! Thank you thank you!

From surise to sunset there was no shortage of beautiful things to see right from our camper. Having kayaks to ourselves was definitely an added benefit the lake was so fun to explore. And our favorite part was Callie( Franks dog) She made the stay complete. We will definitely be going back

Beautiful getaway
If you are looking for a getaway to really chill with nature this is it!! The host was so friendly and thought of everything. The camper was clean and a nice size for two people. The AC worked really well! The camper was stocked with towels and the basics including coffee. There was no need to bring anything but food and drinks. You were feet away from the water and there was a dock just a short walk away. There were kayaks to use and we did several times. The last night we kayaked out into the lake to watch the amazing sunset!!! An experience we will never forget! We will definitely be back!!

Place to Relax
Bryce is a wonderful host, the camper provided everything we needed to relax for a few days. Quite a few places around Inverness to eat and have drinks, we also spent a day at crystal river. The only challenge is being careful when backing out, the grounds were wet and water high so I didn't want to mess up his yard. We will return .
