I felt like a lottery winner. I was staying in this beautiful home on the water just minutes from the Homosassa River. Our goal was fishing, and being able to dock our boat just feet from the back door was amazing. And yes, the fishing was lively too.Thanks for the hospitality, and hopefully we can come back soon!

We’re happy you enjoyed your stay in our home. Thank you for the suggestion of a cleaning station. If we can put one in, then it will be added in the description of the home. There are commercial locations on the water near us that have cleaning stations.

Amazing location, convenient dock, but owners are definitely taking advantage of that to overcharge and under provide. Pillows were yellow and stained. Downstairs is advertised as a “game room”. There’s two random chairs along with a tiny high table. There’s no actual furniture. Tv did not even work. Exposed wires in downstairs bathroom, hair in the shower. There is no furniture outside at all. Large yard and porches where you have no amenities to sit or enjoy the outdoors. There’s 3 queen beds but if you have more than 4 people, you get charged extra. Pet friendly but with a non refundable fee which isn’t advertised in the post. Owner sends you a set of their rules which violate Vrbo policies. Very disappointed for the money I spent, we visit every year and know not to book here again.

Thank you for your comments! You’re absolutely right—the location, dock, and huge deck are fabulous and beautiful! We’re glad we could accommodate your request for early check in and offered a later check out prior to your stay with us to enjoy it all!! We apologize for your concerns regarding the pillows and hair. We have addressed these items with our cleaning company to help ensure they are not an issue for future guests. The small game room also has a dartboard and there are box games in the home as well. We also wish you had contacted us regarding the new TV and any wires you noticed during your stay. We would have been happy to come by and check everything to make sure it was safe and functioning properly. For future reference, information regarding pets and applicable pet fees, as well as property boundaries, is provided to all guests. We hope this information helps ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay for everyone. Thank you again for taking the time to share your feedback.

Great house with a boat dock!

My wife & I spent 5 days at this lovely place in Homosassa, FL. We were able to launch our 20 ft Bay boat at the nearby public boat launch and park it right behind the house at a private dock. We had easy access to the river and the Gulf for fishing and boating. The house itself is large & roomy (& pet friendly). The town of Homosassa has a lot of good places to eat & drink. We really enjoyed our stay.

Nice clean home. Well equipped kitchen. Boat dock was a plus. Parking was limited. Overall enjoyed our stay.

Thank you for your review. We like to inform everyone that as most rentals on the water, parking is limited to the driveway and garage. There is a canopy that can be shared with the neighbor if requested. However our neighbor was there the same weekend you were our guests. This is another reason we limit the number of guests, especially if they mention having multiple vehicles.
