Great Home for the holidays

The home was the perfect size for our family. It was our first Christmas morning with all of our grandchildren and we had a great time. Some were fishing, some were canoeing, and some were just relaxing. The response from Robert was great and check-in was a breeze. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

Love visiting the Homosassa area....

The location of this property was perfect. The views were lovely as was the weather. The pictures in the listing need to be updated, I believe they were taken before the last hurricane and perhaps even longer. The boathouse was missing most of its screens and did not look like it had been cleaned in a while. The house was a good set up for us but it also looked liked it needed a good cleaning and vacuumning. It does not look like whomever the owners have hired to keep up the place are doing a full job. We did have to deal with roaches and there is a wasp nest on the door going from the porch into the main floor bath. Lots of cobwebs in the windows as well. In fairness, we did not say anything to the owners directly but I hope vrbo relays this info before posting anything.

Fishing trip

Group of us came in from TX to fish for a few days and this place was the perfect location for accessing the local waterways and Gulf. The property has everything and was very well appointed and clean. Love the community and the neighbors we spoke with were very nice and friendly, we ate at couple of the little local restaurants and the food was awesome. Overall great stay and will definitely be back for a return visit and some more fishing

The view is incomparable!

mother, daughter and son-in-law were the primary residents with frequent and extended visits from granddaughter who lives in Largo, grandson and family from Gainesville Ga , and other family and friends.We appreciated the canoe and kayaks available, loved that our neighbor was a fisherman and gave us lots of sea trout and fresh crabs. We ate like kings.Robert is a wonderful host. His house sustained some damage from Helene and he’s put bandaids on it so that we could stay there this winter. Thank you Robert. And he’s making repairs as time and help becomes available. Help is difficult to find since there are so many people in need of all the same things. Our Verizon doesn’t work in that location, but his internet is very good, so we were able to communicate with the outside (read ‘home’) world. All in all we were very comfortable. Looking forward to going back another time.

Peaceful and Relaxing

What a wonderful 10 days in old Homosassa. My wife and I have been traveling for the past 15 months we have visited 22 states and 10 countries We have stayed in homes,condos, Apartments and hotels. This is by far the nicest property we have stayed in It is furnished with everything you need and very comfortable A wonderful plus was the elevator to bring our luggage up to the Second floor living area The owners were responsive and very easy to work with Wonderful places to eat within a short driving distance And a quiet, calm ,peaceful and relaxing place just to sit and watch the sunset. It’s a great property for families or couples just wanting to get away We would definitely rent this property again

Beautiful View, Fishing, and More!

Amazing sunsets and fishing on dock with lots of extras! From sunrise to sunset you will be happy with this home. Lots of fun for the kids and all day fishing from dock. We caught sting rays, catfish, red fish, lots of others, saw dolphins, and manatees. Close to local bars for some evening fun and close enough to Pine Island beach, springs, and crystal river.

We brought our boat, coming from the East Coast to scallop. We had a nice ride out to the gulf and found scallops easily. we also adventured towards the springs and enjoyed the day swimming in the springs. The house was comfortable, location is beautiful, the town is adorable.
