The cottage is charming with homey touches. The bathroom was well stocked and the tankless water heater supplied plenty of hot water. When we needed help with the TV we sent Jennifer a text and she responded quickly. We had fun exploring the area on the golf cart. The area was very quiet and everyone we interacted with was friendly. If we return to the area this would the house I would rent

Wow! What a cute, well thought out vacation rental!! From beginning to end excellent communication! Check in was simple! Upon arrival we walked into a true Homosassa home fully equipped for a wonderful vacation. Our family of 5 were very comfortable with room to spread out. Every detail was carefully thought out from the outdoor seating area to the tiny toothpaste just in case! The home was very clean and cozy, situated conveniently to everything! We came for a scallop trip but were met with so much more given the golf cart on sight. We were able to explore the area to get a real feel for true Homosassa living! The boat ramp was right down the road along with all the best eateries! We will definitely stay here again!

About the host

Host profile image
Hi! We’re based in Bradenton, Florida, but Homosassa has felt like a special place to us for years. We’ve spent countless weekends here and always found ourselves coming back for the slower pace, beautiful river, and laid-back Old Florida charm.

When we’re not working, we love spending our time camping, boating, and traveling—especially anywhere that lets us unplug and enjoy the outdoors. The Willard Retreat was created to be the kind of place we’d want to stay ourselves: comfortable, welcoming, and a perfect home base for making memories.

We’re excited to share one of our favorite places with you and hope you enjoy Homosassa as much as we do.
