Thank you si much, Jesse. You and your family were absolutely the perfect guests! We look forward to the opportunity to host you again.
Tammy and Kevin were great hosts! Their house felt like home away from home. Stocked with everything we could need. Was very clean too! Sitting on the dock in the mornings and after being on the boat was so relaxing. We really loved every part of the home and look forward to returning :-)

Rachel, it was a true pleasure to host you and your friends.
If your travels bring you back to Homosassa, we hope that you will stay with us again.
My husband and I along with another couple truly enjoyed our weekend getaway - although it would certainly work as a family setting as well. The hosts are extra friendly and super helpful - easy to find if you need anything as they live next door! The property is adorable and functional and the dock space was great for our boat! Highly recommended and we will be back!

Thank you Samantha, and thank you for taking such good care of our home.
This is our second stay here. So convenient to all Homosassa river restaurants and a nice ride out to the scalloping grounds. Love river life. Thanks Tammy!
We had a great time and this house was a perfect location. It was so close to the main water area to go out to go fishing or scalloping and close and convenient to the area restaurants. It was so nice and easy to be able to park our boat there for the week at the dock and have it ready to go each day. We met Tammy, she was super nice and went over and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The outdoor space under the house with the grill and picnic table was perfect for grilling and having dinner outside, which is where we spent most of our time (fishing also). It is definitely a perfect location and we will definitely be going again.
From the moment we turned in to this neighborhood, the homes are beautiful. Continue on almost to end of the street & the beauty abounds as you pull under your home away from home; the Owners did not miss a detail here!! From cleanliness & essentials, to comfortable furniture, stunning interior details & true Southern hospitality, this rental is an absolute gem!! The massive upper deck, impeccable dock & wide canal (with quick Gulf access) all unveil Florida at her finest. I highly recommend this rental & it's location on the waterways! We will be back ASAP!!

Sabrina, thank you so much for the great review. It was a pleasure meeting you and your husband and we are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay. We would love the opportunity to host you Amy time your travels bring you over this way.

If you are going to the river this is the best place to stay. The dock is brand new and the water is deep even at low tide for 30 foot center console. Power on the dock and water. Only 10 minutes from Mcraes and 20 minutes to the springs. Right at the end of the no wake zone to head straight to the gulf. Be careful in the river and stay in the channel at all times. Look up hellsgate on yutube to watch boats going thru the tightest spot in the river. Very good air conditioning and nice decor. You can also rent a golf cart locally from the monkey bar and hit all the bars and restaurants. We will be back!

We're so glad that you guys choose to stay with us and sincerely hope to see you again.

Great location for the scalloping grounds and the spring. The house is clean, well stocked, and has that old Florida charm. The best part was being able to keep our boat right in the backyard. It made everything so much easier since we didn’t have to deal with the boat ramp or haul stuff by golf cart to the boat back and forth every day. There was plenty of room for parking too. The hosts were super friendly, accommodating, and easy to work with. We’d definitely stay here again.
We spent 4 days at this house on the river, and it was perfect! The property was easily accessible by both road and boat. We had plenty of room to park 2 vehicles and 2 trailers. The house had everything we needed and was cozy. We would absolutely stay here again!

Brittany was a great guest and we would welcome her back any time!
Lovely house on the water for a few days of fun on the boat. Tammy was an excellent communicator and host as we reserved and ultimately visited the property.
This is a great little place to stay in Homosassa for a small family or friends. Would definitely rent again. We have began renting in this part of town over the spring area where we have in the past. Very convenient to avoid the idle zone in town. Still easy to get to the spring or straight back to the house in case of weather.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Homosassa. The house is just as described, very clean and all the amenities you need for a great week. Location is excellent, especially for boating- quick in and out to the no wake zone and channel to gulf, with a nice protected dock. Hosts were super responsive and accommodating.
