We absolutely loved our stay. This is probably one of my all time favorite homes we’ve ever rented. The home is even prettier in person, the grounds are beautiful, it’s spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We went to relax and enjoy the water and fishing and my only complaint is I wish we’d stayed longer. Between the 5 of us fishing we probably caught 30 fish and my father in-law thinks he counted 8 different species including a couple crabs and sting rays (not on purpose, ha!).It truly is a gem, the owners responded so quickly whenever I had a question, I just can’t say enough wonderful things about this beautiful home. Thank you for sharing this beautiful property with us!! We truly enjoyed our time.

This is a gorgeous home. It was exactly as pictured, and very clean. The waterfront area was beautiful. We enjoyed the sitting areas on the back porch and the screened room off the boathouse. The ice maker was a super plus, saving us some trips to town for ice before we ventured out on our boat for the day. The canal leads right to the river and was only a short ride out to The Gulf. The home is nestled in a nice, quiet little off the beaten path part of Old Homosassa. We had a wonderful stay. Overall, a great find, would definitely book again!

About the host

Hosted by Marni Allen

Host profile image
We lived in Arizona. I have been coming to Homosassa since 1976. My Aunt and Uncle lived in the area, and my fondest memories as a child were on the Homosassa River. We finally decided to purchase a home where one day we could retire and visit as much as possible.

Why they chose this property

This property has been completely updated. It has everything to make your fishing trip relaxing and enjoyable. The location is close to all the Hot Spots (Freezer. Shed, Mc Rae's, Old Mill, Publix). Screened in the boathouse with a cleaning station and ice machine—plenty of room to park your boat trailers. You can sit in the screened lanai room and watch the manatees and dolphins.

What makes this property unique

We are located on the Homosassa River. Quite area, but located close to everything in Old Homosassa. Live Music at all the local restaurants. Close to boat ramp. Golf Cart community.
