Luxurious House and Perfect Location

This is the BEST VRBO we have ever stayed in. Immaculate (so clean!) and comfortable. The furniture and beds appeared to be new - not your typical garage sale finds. Couch, love seat & chair were all recliners. Pair that with a huge HD tv - great to watch movies together in the evening. We lived on the back screened patio - beautiful yard & again great furniture setup. We didn’t cook, but kitchen had everything you’d need to cook. Even the master bathroom & shower exceeded expectations. Host was wonderful. Great communicator, even brought us home made chocolate chip cookies & coffee cake (thank you Mary Lynn). Would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Joy Byrd

My name is Joy and my husbands name is Joe. I was born in California and lived there till we moved to Homosassa when we retired. I was an engineer for the State of California and Joe was an electrical engineer. We have 6 kids most of which still live out west. Two of our daughter live next door to the rental house and we live 1 mile away.

Joe was raised in Homosassa and always wanted to return here.

Why they chose this property

My husband was born and raised in Homosassa, left for the service and when we retired we returned. This property was his grandmothers and having lived near by during his childhood it had so many memories that he just had to have it. As it turned out the house was not restorable so we tore down the original home and built a custom home on the same property. Since then we have build another home on the lot next door.

What makes this property unique

The beautiful huge oak tree in the front yard. They whole street has tons of oak trees. There is a grapefruit tree in the back that was there when Granny was alive. We have lots of wild life and birds to watch. The home is comfortable and very relaxing. Hiking trails close by. Garage parking and a place to park a boat trailer. Also we have RV parking with hookups. This is definitely what Florida is all about.
