Tranquil Waterfront Cottage. 1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom. Sleeps 2

Lovely, beautifully furnished 1 bedroom 1 bath cottage for 2 adults. Perfect for your honeymoon or romantic getaway, but if needed there is room for 2 small children on the living room sectional. You are overlooking a Crystal clear waterway that leads to the Halls River. The River runs thru several lakes on its way to the Homosassa River then to the Gulf of Mexico. Good fishing in crystal clear water right off your patio. Bass, Bluegill, Mullet, Porgy, Sheepshead & stingrays are some of many different varieties that frequent the area. The cottage is a great area for sight seeing, manatee, porpoise, otters, turtles and stingrays frequent the waterways off your dock. Several great blue heron, ibis, many bard owls and wood storks also frequent your back yard. Just recently we’ve had a white peacock that visits every couple of days. We’ve named her princess. She is just beautiful !! There are also a great variety of birds in the area and most of our waterways are bird sanctuaries . You have a dock for a small boat and plenty of room to park your boat and trailer. The cottage comes complete with life vests, 4 person paddle boat, 2 kayaks and a canoe. A lovely yard that is fenced on 2 sides has water on the other two sides. A quiet and charming area to relax.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

This cottage is a tranquil, beautiful peace of paradise. Located on a large corner lot with inviting seating on different spots along the stream. The inside is perfect for a couple get-away with many helpful necessities. We used the paddle boat with paddles for a short water trip. It is very convenient to Homosassa Springs state park and restaurants abound. Only downside is I wish we could have stayed longer.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay!First night we watched a Bard Owl Fish. Everyday the water was bussing with life, too many fish to count. The last morning we saw young manatees and a loon. The cottage is perfect and has all the amenities to make you comfortable and feel welcomed. The location is perfect.

We had a wonderful time here. The property was so cute. Just as pictured. The owner, Dennis, couldn’t have been nicer. It was so peaceful and we enjoyed sitting outside and watching the wildlife. We saw a family of otters, lots of fish and the neighborhood white peacock, Princess. She was beautiful. It was definitely a great place to stay.

You will enjoy your stay here. Such a quaint place. We didn’t want to leave. Right in the middle of everything, restaurants and activities. The hosts were fabulous. They left information and brochures for all the spots to visit. The bed was comfy. We saw lots of fish, an otter swam by, circled back and poked his head up to look at us. We also saw the neighborhood albino peacock. It’s very quiet and restful. We will definitely come back! Thank you Debbie and Dennis!
