The house, the property, the location - amazing! Zero complaints, especially cleanliness. Easy access to the property and the check-in process was a breeze. The added boat slip was the cherry on top! Will stay again!

Annual Scalloping Family Reunion
This 5 bedroom house was perfect for our group of 10. Plenty of room for us all to spread out. We appreciated the table big enough for us all to eat together. Kitchen & whole house was very well stocked. Extra fridge in garage was a plus. Easy, convenient boat launch & trailer parking right by the house. Absolutely no negatives at all. We loved it!

Exploring Homosassa
There were 2 families of 5, so we packed the house! Everything was as pictured. We were pleased with the property, boat access and ease, and that our dogs were able to join us. House was clean and had what we needed. The only thing that would have made our stay better was ceiling fans! There were none in the 4 upstairs bedrooms.

Nice place with a few hiccups
Smoke detector from the master bedroom had been removed prior to arrival and left with a note that it needed a new battery. We found onions in the ovens drawer. Found several little green stickers (beggar's lice) on the sheets. Needs a broom. That being said we would stay there again, had a great family vacation.

We enjoyed the house and area very much. The carpeted area in the house needs to be replaced, or some other type of flooring needs to be installed. I would rent this house again.

The most basic property we have ever stayed at. The carpet upstairs is gross, old and dirty. No paper towels, no dish towels, no hand bathroom towels. Will not recommend anyone to stay there.
