Weekend Adventuring

Our first attempt, but definitely not our last, at scalloping. We had a great time in Homosassa. Our contact, Nancy, was wonderful. The check-in / out process was super easy and the home was perfect for our party. Two families shared this house and experience together with no issues. It was perfect for us and the dock was suitable for two boats, but we did have to raft off of each other. It is such a beautiful location, the local restaurants and bars were incredible and the people were polite and friendly. There is so much to do if you love the outdoors and water. The only mistake we made was to not stay for a full week. It would have been nice to see more of the local establishments and spend some more time fishing. We mainly stayed in the scallop grounds, but we will extend next years trip to allow us to do more activities.I highly recommend this home and dealing with Nancy is a delightful experience. We will be back.

Great location and accommodations

We stayed here for a quick weekend trip and found the house to be everything we needed. Like most of the other reviews said, it was very clean, the house is very close to restaurants and the springs. It makes it a great spot after a day of scalloping. We loved the outdoor space for our kids to play. My only warning is the room with the bunk beds does not get very cool. It worked okay for us because we are Floridians and it was the kids room, but the lowest the room temperature got was 75 degrees but mostly it was in the high 70s or low 80s. Again this was also August.

Wonderful Stay

We have stayed in many VRBOs and I must say this house was the cleanest. It was as described. Everything you need for a stay and more. The Shed had all kinds of extra stuff and my grandkids loved the kayaks. It is very close to the spring which made it extra special and easy to get out to the bay to scallop. The kids loved fishing off the dock. The owners were also very accommodating when we initially had to change our date. We will definately be coming back.

Great Homosassa Home

It’s in a great location, within minutes of plenty of restaurants and attractions. We had a great time kayaking the canals and spring. The home is spacious, clean and well decorated. Would benefit from room darkening drapes across the back to control the afternoon heat. And the third bedroom is almost unusable in the summer heat.

Great Place

When we arrived to the property, it was apparent the cleaning crew never made it that day which turned about to be a misunderstanding in the schedule. It was 7pm on a Sunday and Nancy and Brittany were on the case. We had cleaners in the house with in the hour, all of the linen was taken to a local laundromat, and by 10pm, the house was cleaned and we were in the house. Nancy was more than accommodating and generous throughout the process. The house was perfect and in great condition. Plenty of room for my 21' boat to fit at the dock. Bed Review: All of the beds had a nice thick memory foam pad on them. Slept like a baby. Refreshing to have a VRBO with super comfortable beds.
