Very cute and relaxing house. We arrived and check in was easy, maps took us right to the property. The house was spotless. Very nice neighborhood to walk our dog, great restaurants nearby. We loved the canal out back and the patio. Great place to sit and listen to the wildlife.

The back yard was great for our dog. The neighbors were so quiet we spent a great deal of time on the dock area and felt as though we were alone. The house was small but convenient and had everything we needed.

Great place to stay for scalloping

We loved our family time in Old Homosassa. So easy to launch our pontoon from the boat dock right around the corner. This place had it all as well, the ice machine was a major bonus and everyone enjoyed the outdoor shower after a long day on the water.

Homosassa Memorial day getaway

We had a great time enjoying the river in the surrounding area attractions. Food was great at Florida cracker. But I must say best meal was caught in the Homosassa river. We had mangrove snapper redfish, and spotted sea trout. Great times.

Will stay again! Everything we needed

We loved this house. Perfect location for scalloping and springs. Boat ramp is one street over to launch and house is conveniently on a canal with dock. House was clean and fully stocked. The ice maker, outdoor shower and the hot tub were our favorite parts!

Awesome location! Easy drive to homosassa springs wildlife park. Close to Hunter springs where we swam with manatees! My family loved the backyard and watching the otter swim by. The hot tub and kayaks were a bonus! Great house for fishing camp adventures!

Scallop vacation

The home was amazing. We loved the neighborhood. Everyone was very friendly. To say we would be booking this again goes without saying. It was just out of the way from the main springs but was great once we were done and came home it was quiet and peaceful.
