Exceptional accommodations and location!
This home was perfect for our family scalloping trip. Check in was very smooth. The location on the Homosassa River with ample docking for my brother’s 29.5 ft boat was incredible. And the home and property accommodations were excellent. No detail was overlooked with making the home and our stay comfortable.

Perfect location
Extremely comfortable and well suited for multiple family members. Several gathering areas to eat and be together and then plenty of space to retreat at night and not disturb anyone who wanted to stay up later. Separate boat house was an unexpected addition!!

Relaxing, perfect weekend getaway!
The house is in a perfect location to enjoy everything Homosassa has to offer. It was very clean and well stocked. The host was great at communication and we had no issues during our stay. We especially enjoyed docking our boat right out back. Can't wait to come back!
