We come to Homosassa normally at least twice a year, I think this is our favorite house that we’ve rented! Everything looks just like the photos. The house was very clean, the beds were very comfortable and we loved the large kitchen. The dock had plenty of space for two boats. It is very close to the springs. The house had everything we needed & also had an ice machine that was very convenient, we would definitely stay again!

What a wonderful stay we had. Everything we needed was there and the place was very clean and tastefully decorated. The pool table was a great bonus for us. Saw so much wildlife including many manatee. It was great to be able to use the kayaks to explore the river. Kitchen was very large and well stocked. Bathrooms were a nice size with huge showers. We're looking forward to our next stay!

A Hidden Gem

I absolutely loved this place! It had everything you could think of—truly well-stocked and thoughtfully set up. The layout was perfect, and the owners were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We visit Homosassa Springs often, and from now on, this will be our go-to spot. Already looking forward to our next trip!
