Perfect place, wonderful hosts

We had an amazing time. The house is beautiful and equipped perfectly. The dock has power and water supply. The canal is 4 to 6 feet deep and close to the river at the start of the 25mph channel on the way out. The downstairs gathering area is outstanding. Upstairs the bedrooms, kitchen, and living spaces were ideal. Most of all, however, the hosts were super friendly and helpful. we feel this was the best place we stayed at in Homosassa and we’ve been coming here every year for several years.

Perfect holiday get away.

The house was amazing. Very convenient to get to restaurants, springs, or going out scalloping. It has a dock to use and the owners were nearby should anything be needed. It was very peaceful there. We will definitely book again. Thank you for sharing your lovely house with us for Labor Day weekend.

Why they chose this property

Located just off the main river on a deep water canal. Almost NO "idol" zone between our canal and the mouth of the Gulf. Quick easy access to scalloping, fishing.
