Serenity at the Lake

We hope you book and enjoy our charming lake house. "Serenity at the Lake" in Hernando is located in a peaceful setting surrounded by palm trees, lush greenery, and beautiful plants with lovely views of flowers, the lake and the occasional visiting of sandhill cranes. This is a perfect location if you are visiting the area, or if you simply want to experience a touch of Florida lakeside with many wonderful activities minutes away!

We are located towards the back of our neighborhood on a circle, so not much traffic comes through. Our neighbors are mostly snowbirds or keep to themselves. The rest of the neighborhood is mostly retirees. It's the perfect neighborhood for walking, riding bikes, running or just relaxing outdoors and enjoying everything the lake has to offer. Please note: We DO NOT allow parties of any kind in this house - we respect the quiet and privacy of our neighbors.

We are less than 5 miles to 3 very popular restaurants that are family owned and have a long standing in our town. We are a short drive to the local pharmacy, grocery store and farmers market.
