Would Recommend

First time to Homosassa and we absolutely loved the location of the house. It was close to really great food, local shops, and easy to get to. The couch is miserable, but they said they'll probably replace it so shouldn't be a future problem. The bar in the game room was a great home office... fresh air, nice view, lots of space to spread out. The place is worth a stay.

Up the Creek In A Good Way!

Spent three nights here and the house was very clean and in a great area of Old Homosassa. We had a blast checking out the area with the highlight being the manatees in the State park.

Great location and space

The location can’t be beat! Within a short walk of historical landmarks, restaurants and the water. The unit is well stocked with plenty of bath towels, linens and kitchen supplies. The beds were incredibly comfortable as well. We had a lot of fun in the game room which also has a big fan and kept the space cool! The owners are very welcoming and responsive! Overall a great trip made better by this great VRBO!

Nice 3-bedroom rental with great view of natural Florida--frogs, birds, Florida greenery-- at the back of house. Very close to Homosassa Springs attraction as well as eating and shopping spots.

Wonderful place

The home is absolutely beautiful and so convenient to everything we wanted to do!! The area around the home was quiet and perfect for relaxing. Great space below for fun and games, ping-pong, jenga, etc. Would definitely stay again when homosassa. BONUS: We weren't expecting it and were happily surprised to find the owners had provided paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, dishwasher pods, trash bags, Linens/sheets bath towels, seasonings, spices, salt, pepper etc. They even provided detergent and dryer sheets for the On-site Washer and dryer. We really appreciated not having to inflate our vacation grocery bill purchasing these items. Additionally there were complimentary streaming services and internet as well.(Netflix and hulu).

This house is wonderful for a family vacation. Plenty of room and the bonus is the game room on the first level.

Stunning architecture

This home is as beautiful as the pictures. We had a little snafu on check in but Chris was quick and made it perfect for us. We enjoyed the area very much. Beautiful large trees outlining the streets, fun homes on the water and lots of interesting decorations! The home is just a beautiful! Plenty of space Inside with all the essentials we needed to cook multiple meals. And awesome play room/garage. We did get our traditional rooster picture as it seemed to be very popular. On Saturday night It was quite loud with many golf carts full of people stopping by to snap their own rooster picture. Overall this was a great home and vacation and we thank Chris for sharing it with us!
