This home is the kind you return to year after year. My husband and I were looking for a place within a two drive from home, that was on the water, and would allow us to relax, unwind, and recharge. This place delivered and then some! Below are the highlights. The cleanest rental home we have EVER stayed at. Plenty of inviting and beautiful outdoor spaces.Plenty of room to spread out indoors too. Boat ramp one block away. Literally!Boat dock was perfect for our 15 foot airboat.Plenty of room to park our big truck and trailer.Located in a quiet residential neighborhood.Close to all the places we love to visit in Homosassa.

The property was absolutely beautiful inside and out. We loved the landscape and "tropical paradise" feel of the outdoor area. Inside was gorgeous with windows all around to bring in the light and nature. The house had everything we needed and then some. Don't miss this one... it's a gem!

Simply Lovely
The River Garden is beautiful. The house is spacious and comfortable, but the gardens and outdoor spaces are truly splendid! We loved being surrounded by all of the plants and trees with the water right there. And the brickwork was a nostalgic and unique addition! Access to the kayaks was a huge plus as well! We loved it!!

The adults all jumped off pontoon into Springs and had a Blast! Ate fresh seafood locally caught at three restaurants suggested by home owner! Otter came and visited us off the dock at the property! This house is wonderful but the property is AMAZING feels like you are in a tropical Oasis. Close to Everything! Ice machine is a big bonus in Summer heat! Easy check in and out!

Perfect getaway
This house was perfect for our families. The house met every expectation and more. The house was very clean at check in. It had plenty of space for 2 families. Loved the outdoor area as well. Loved that they have kayaks there to use and an ice machine for packing coolers for a day out on the water. Definitely would stay here again and we are already looking at dates for next year to come back. This house is worth the price!!

I normally don’t write reviews but this one deserves it. The host was amazing from start to finish. The location was perfect. Boat ramp was on the next street over. Plenty of room for boats to dock. The outside of the house was magical from the brick to the plants was beautiful. The inside of the house was great plenty of room to sleep, hangout would definitely be back. We loved it.

Christmas and Family
Communication between Dani and me was great. She was very quick to respond to my inquiries. This spot is a gem; great location, and beautiful grounds, and is very comfortable and relaxing. We took advantage of the kayaks a couple of times. The weather was rather cool so we had a couple of fires in the outdoor fireplace. We visited the Homosassa Springs State Park. There were over 400 manatees in the spring. Overall it is a great place to stay.

Words are not enough to describe the beauty of this property. The pics are fantastic but the actual property is breath taking. We brought our boat and left it at the dock but the boat ramp was super close too. It was our first time so we have to get used to the tides and skinny waters but we can not wait to come back and stay here. Dani was great with communication! Thank you for sharing this property and helping us make lasting memories for us all

Florida’s Gem!!
We had a great time at this property!! It had plenty of room for the 8 of us - two couples and 4 kids with the occasional grand parent visit!! We loved using the kayaks daily and I’m very glad I brought my SUP board because that was super fun as well. We utilized the crab traps as well - the kids had a blast with this!! We also went to town and bought stuff for fishing and had a good time trying our hands at that as well! Sunsets were never disappointing nor were the outdoor shower experiences! Great outdoor kitchen as well! Thank you for a great location that made our stay memorable beyond all things!!!

Birthday Weekend
The property is lovely and much nicer than the pictures reflect. The layout is a little funky but there was plenty of room and very clean. The only thing that I did not like is the early check out (10 AM). A word of caution is that the location is more for boats that can go in very shallow water so we did have some issues with navigating the area for the time of year we visited. I heard summer months the water is deeper. The property is perfect for kayaking thought and would stay again!

Beautiful views and lots of space.
The eight of us had plenty of room in this home and with three bathrooms there were no issues there. We didn't get a chance to use the kayaks but the crab traps provided blue crabs for dinner one night. Both the inside and outside areas had plenty of room for us to gather and relax. The one downside is it's not easy, by boat, to get to the primary channel or directly out to the bay from the home. That said the Mason creek ramp is one street over and the public ramp on Homosassa River is 5 minutes away. Lastly Dani was very quick to respond to any questions we had and super helpful. Would definitely stay here again on our next visit.
