Amazing house and perfect location!
I’ve stayed at a lot of rental properties in Homosassa and this one was my favorite! Great location for boaters. Close to the springs and restaurants. House has everything you could need, and I love the manatee theme the home has! We will definitely be back!

A home away from home
We cannot express enough gratitude for rental properties that put so much care into their home that it makes us feel so at home. We enjoyed the beautiful decor, all amenities, and the use of the kayaks to the state park. Thank to the owners for sharing this slice of heaven with us. It makes it so tempting to move here!

Great place to relax!
We have a family of five. This home was perfect for all of us. The boys did lots of fishing and caught lots of fish. We all went kayaking a few times. We sat outside and watched the wildlife from the dock. We made s’mores by the fire pit. It’s a very comfortable home with lots to do!

Great Homosassa Home
It’s in a great location, within minutes of plenty of restaurants and attractions. We had a great time kayaking the canals and spring. The home is spacious, clean and well decorated. Would benefit from room darkening drapes across the back to control the afternoon heat. And the third bedroom is almost unusable in the summer heat.

Perfect, relaxing, more than well equipped stay on beautiful Homosassa Springs.
The home itself it clean, spacious and offers everything you need and more. Plenty of china and cookware, towels and bedding; coffee pot, blender, washer and dryer; Disney+, prime video and board games; barbecue, mini beach with sand toys; outside furniture; kayaks, plenty of life jackets; a large fenced yard and a covered dock looking out on the canal. The home is only a 5 minute drive from Homosassa Springs State Park, Publix, an ice-cream shop and pizza parlour to name a few. Also 20 minutes from Three Sisters, Crystal River, Kings Bay and 30 minutes from Weeki Watchi. The best thing though is Homosassa Springs. Kayaked every day to see the manatees play, eat and sleep, as well as the birds like the Heron and Snowy Egret, which seemed to be on the canal every morning! The communication was awesome. We will definitely stay here again.

Great location and accommodations
We stayed here for a quick weekend trip and found the house to be everything we needed. Like most of the other reviews said, it was very clean, the house is very close to restaurants and the springs. It makes it a great spot after a day of scalloping. We loved the outdoor space for our kids to play. My only warning is the room with the bunk beds does not get very cool. It worked okay for us because we are Floridians and it was the kids room, but the lowest the room temperature got was 75 degrees but mostly it was in the high 70s or low 80s. Again this was also August.

Wonderful Stay
We have stayed in many VRBOs and I must say this house was the cleanest. It was as described. Everything you need for a stay and more. The Shed had all kinds of extra stuff and my grandkids loved the kayaks. It is very close to the spring which made it extra special and easy to get out to the bay to scallop. The kids loved fishing off the dock. The owners were also very accommodating when we initially had to change our date. We will definately be coming back.

Peaceful Paradise
This is a perfect house to stay at. It is in the middle of all the attractions. Very peaceful, relaxing, and short kayaking trip to the springs. The weather was not in our favor during our stay but there was still things to do and see while we were there. The host Brittany was great and very responsive!
