Large, clean, comfortable home with a boat slip was perfect for our family. Lots of extras (kayaks, pool floats, toys, puzzles) were all great for our kids. Joan was kind and great with communication. Beds and some kitchen appliances could use updating but overall it was a very nice stay.

Love the place, as well and so enjoyed by everyone!! Florida’s Nature Coast offers so much! Especially for families! Well noted suggestions! TY - yes! Please come again!
The house was beautiful. Everyone had their own personal space. We enjoyed the parks in the area, and the hit of the trip was smorkeling with the manatees. We wouldn't hesitate to rent The Marina again.

Yes! Please come again and bring your friends. The area and house are lovely to share! We love that our guests enjoy their stay!
Large home on short canal to Homosassa River was very inviting and clean with large bedroom on main floor and three bedrooms upstairs. Kitchen was well equipped, and the home layout was very good. The location made it a good home base for excursions to other interesting places in the northern Gulf coast (the "Bend"). The nearby wildlife park was very enjoyable, and Rainbow Springs State Park near Dunnellon was beautiful and a must see. The hosts were very friendly and accomodating. Highly recommended!
We always enjoy staying at this location. The hosts Communication was outstanding and everything was wonderful. Love the boat slips and all the wonderful restaurants on the water.

Yes, our community is a very family friendly and safe place. The pool provides hours of fun and sunshine! It is great being right on the river! We also love the close proximity of the house to all the great things that this Florida area offers!!
House was great mornings & evenings on the back deck were wonderful ..kayaking out to the river & being able to bring a boat rental right down the canal .. the “grans” felt like they were being Ubered around the river…loved it !!
