Homosassa House

Hosts were wonderful and accommodating. Place was clean and basic kitchen needs were provided. They offered their kayaks to use which was very nice. Beds were very comfortable and the outside yard was great for my fur babies.

Perfect for short stay with pets

Clean and cosy and well stocked with basic necessities. The fact that they welcomed our dog and two cats made it perfect. A great fenced back yard for our dog to explore while we sat out in the evening. Oh and great artwork!!!

Great Weekend Getaway

Me and my girlfriend made a quick weekend get away to visit the area. We were able to use the kayaks on property saving us almost half of what we paid for the house just in kayak rentals for one day. The house was not the ritz Carlton by any means but it was definitely clean and cozy. The back yard was big and well manicured my pup loved it. We also used the fire pit in the back yard at night and it was lovely

Private, quiet, great location

We stayed for a month with our dog, and it was a great visit. It wasn’t one of those fancy places where you are afraid to touch anything. It felt like a real home where we could settle in.The owners were responsive and relaxed and gave us our privacy. Our only concern was that the backyard fence had openings that need to be fixed, so we had to watch our dog every time she went out to make sure she didn’t slip through a gap.

It was a very quiet and somewhat secluded spot, with little noise. It has a large backyard for my dogs to run (I think they thought they were at a resort). Though it was during hurricane Milton, we felt safe and sound. I would come back again and again if I have to leave the Tampa area again.

Pet Paradise !

Kurt and Marie great hosts, was searching for 3 dogs allowed, secure private fenced back yard was great for them to run free and sniff etc. Beds and bath were very good, large comfy couch/sleeper. Nice small firepit, bring some firelogs and your bluetooth speaker for wonderful ambiance! Quiet safe street,easy on off 19/98. Very clean, well supplied. If you are traveling with dogs, you can not top this stay!
