About this property

60 Feet Of Dock, Wheel Chair Friendly In Old Homosassa


Meticulously remodeled to be the best vacation rental in the area, Otter's Den is wheel chair friendly with a chair lift in the garage and 3ft or wider doors throughout except in the guest hallway, bedroom and bath. 60 ft of dock space on a deep water canal means your boat is in your back yard ready to head for the Gulf, the springs, or even a waterfront restaurant. Most furniture and appliances are brand new including all beds (King in master bedroom, 2 twins that can be moved together in the guest bedroom.) Master bath area has a walk in closet, travertine (real stone) shower stall, and new toilet, sink, exhaust fan and light fixtures. Guest bath has tub, shower, and is newly tiled with all new fixtures as well. the kitchen and dining area sports a new dishwasher, electric stove with stainless hood, built in microwave, a huge walk-in pantry, double door refrigerator with ice maker and through the door water dispenser, toaster, blender, and quality flatware and service for 8. There is a 60 inch plasma TV in the living room, and LCD TV's in the bedrooms and kitchen. The home has vaulted ceilings and an 'open air' feel with lots of skylights and pocket doors that disappear into the walls leaving a vast open view of the spacious deck, the dock, the water and wildlife. A large 2 car garage and driveway should take car of your vehicles, but there is extra parking nearby for boat trailers and possibly an RV. Recreational amenities include 2 bicycles, a double kayak, a single kayak, canoe, 2 spinning rods with tackle for fishing off the dock. Serious anglers should bring their own gear. A four person 14ft Carolina Skiff with 2 bench seats, Bimini top and 9.9 hp Evinrude four stroke motor is available to qualified boaters for an additional fee. The house is on a private paved single lane road facing 3 acres of undeveloped deciduous woods. Most houses in this neighborhood are owned by weekenders who come 'up to the river' for fishing, boating, or just to relax.

We were both so pleased with this home from the moment we walked in. The place has wide open spaces with 2 living areas and a comfortable couch for lounging. Every room has a skylight which makes the place bright and cheerful. The beds were comfortable (which is frequently not the case with home rentals) and the kitchen has all the amenities! Then there is the reason we chose this place... the 60 feet of dock space right out the back door! So convenient for fishing! Let's not forget to mention the great blue heron that hangs out close by! We will definitely plan our next trip to Homasassa around this home's availability! Oh and the owner was close by if you needed anything so thanks Terry!

Two coffee makers (one Keurig and one drip) and two grills (one two burner propane and a Charcoal kettle). The owner is amazing and so is this house. We’ve been here several times and will always come back, giving the opportunity! Great beds and dockage (for our 24’ twin console) and plenty of trailer/truck parking. Rent, relax and enjoy all that is here!

Wonderful spacious home. Host lives next door but maintains to himself but is nice when a small issue may crop up unexpectedly. We've visited 4 years in a row now and consider it to be a true vacation home. We'll appointed as far as kitchen items and extra towels, etc.Highly recommended....even though it's a true secret I'd like to keep to myself Well done Terry!

This was hands down my favorite VRBO stay. The host Terry was just the nicest person, the home was so clean and wonderfully kept with lots of games available, including chess (I left an open game for the next guest) We cannot wait until our next stay in Old Homosassa. Thank you Terry for an amazing experience, we hope to see you again soon.

The photos don’t do this property justice! It is open and beautifully decorated. Quiet and peaceful. Everything you could possibly need for your stay. Beds were comfortable, rooms were well appointed and made for a great night’s sleep. We plan to make this a repeat location! (And my husband is Very picky about most everything).

The Otters Den is a hidden gem. The house was very clean. The kitchen had everyting we needed. We spent most of the time successfully fishing in the canal. We did a manatee tour that was outstanding. The host lived next door and was very attentive and friendly. This was a wonderful house and we'll be back this summer for scalloping.

About the host

Hosted by Terry Evans

Host profile image
While building our little pocket cruiser my wife and I decided finally to retire to our favorite Old Florida getaway - Old Homosassa. We'd been visiting here and bringing friends for years and always dreamed of living here permanently. Now we do!

Why they chose this property

When another house in our quiet neighborhood became available, we bought it from the owner before it was ever listed on the market. The neighborhood is perfect, the house is well constructed and has always been well cared for, and the waterfront location is the best in the area. We bought the house specifically to remodel as a vacation rental (We have others in Roatan, Honduras), but I'm sure that if Otters Den had been available when we were shopping for ourselves we'd be living there now.

What makes this property unique

60 feet of dock space on a deep canal 1/2 mile from the Homosassa River, 3 miles from the Gulf of Mexico makes the house a boater's dream. A wheel chair lift in the garage allows easy accessibility for elderly or disabled. The rear deck is huge, the back porch/family room, living room, kitchen and master bedroom all have great water views and north light without glare.
