We had a wonderful stay at the River House in Homosassa! The house was beautiful, comfortable and perfect for our family. The location was fantastic, especially for enjoying the area by boat, with easy access to the water and everything all Homosassa has to offer. Joan the owner was incredibly helpful, friendly and welcoming. We truly enjoyed staying and would definitely stay here again.

This is our 2nd stay at this property. We absolutely love it. Perfect for a family looking to spend time on the river and gulf. The boat slip is a bit of a walk but worth it to not have to ramp your boat in and out daily. The springs are a 10-15min idle. Kids had a blast on the rope swing wife enjoyed the manatee encounters.

The Riverhouse at Tradewinds was amazing! House is super clean and conveniently located to Old Homasassa and scalloping grounds. Having a private boat ramp is a plus. Looking forward to coming backing next year
