What guests think
At "Stilt home close to MacRaes, city dock, Wild Life Park.", guests consistently describe a spotless, well equipped, and comfortable stilt house with exceptionally welcoming, hands on hosts, making it an easy base that works well for families and groups.
Interiors are spacious with multiple gathering spots, a well stocked kitchen, and notably comfortable beds and furniture. Guests highlight the screened porch, fire pit and grill, and abundant on site parking that fits boats and trailers, plus a quiet setting near the river, ramps, restaurants, groceries, and the state park. One review felt the scheduled meet and greet check in and early checkout coordination were a bit too structured. Expect a calm, well organized stay in Homosassa.

We enjoyed our stay in this very lovely home. It has everything you might need and the hosts are extremely nice. We especially liked the porch in the morning. The setting is very relaxing. We would definitely recommend.

Took a short trip with family for christmas. The place was lovely and the host was awesome. The property is in a country setting with plenty of privacy and has plenty of family things to do including board games grilling and even a bar downstairs. Everything we needed was right there, including beautiful scenery. We will definitely do this again.

Outstanding property, wonderful owners and great area. The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we may need. We used the fire pit and the grill most days and my kids loved it. The lightning bugs around and the stars above provided a fantastic setting. The owners, Joy and Joe, were very kind and helpful. Do not miss the opportunity of taking a boat trip through the Homosassa river to the Gulf of Mexico with Joe: a great price and an unforgettable trip. It was the highlight of our vacation. We saw manatees, dolphins, ospreys, sea sponges and a sea turtle while Joe told us about the area, and we swam in the Gulf and in the river. There are plenty of stores and restaurants nearby and you can go to Clearwater and the Tampa area if you want to spend a day at the beach. A perfect place for a family vacation!

The house is updated, clean and well furnished. Also, it's the most well equipped home we have ever stayed in. They have thought of absolutely everything! From the comfortable beds and furniture, to small kitchen appliances, even spices and condiments! Outdoor spaces are well furnished, and the yard is well kept and beautiful - right down to the fruit trees, which we sampled. They have kayaks and paddle boards nearby at another property that is right on the water and leads to the beautiful springs. The area has a laid back, small town feel, and there are numerous activities and eateries within a mile or two. The hosts were so helpful and attentive, we felt like part of their family - their tlc was so appreciated! We will definitely keep this on our list for future vacays, and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, laid back vacation, which also offers lots of fun activities to enjoy.

Great location in Homosassa, close to boat ramp and river. Parking for boat and cars is abundant. The home is very clean and well maintained. It has a nice large outdoor covered entertaining/relaxing area. I thought the fresh baked cookies were very thoughtful. The check-in checkout process was very time oriented. They like to meet and greet, which required me to stay in touch with them since I was unsure of an exact arrival time. It made me feel anxious and rushed instead of relaxed. It took the fun out of exploring the house to find the nice things the hosts do to make you feel comfortable. I was asked on the day prior to checkout day what time I thought I would be leaving so they could clean with checkout instructions (the owners had already given at the meet and greet AND were on the info paper) even though checkout time was standard 11:00.

The Host Family was very kind, responsive and genuinely pleasant to coordinate our stay with. Communications were clear, concise and informative. While our time there was short we will certainly want to stay at this property again for a longer period of time. Definitely a "must stay" property. Thank you!

Had previously heard from friends about a great place to stay while in Homosassa. Booked to give husband a fishing weekend for our Anniversary. We thoroughly enjoyed this property (all 6 of us), Everything was spotless, comfortable and lacked nothing. And the communication and generosity of Mary Lynn and Joy were above and beyond. They went out of their way to accommodate us and make it a memorable stay. The property is wonderfully quiet, spacious, well appointed and supplied and in a perfect location for fishing, boating and just relaxing.. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending this place to everyone. And again, special thanks to Mary Lynn for all you did for us!

The place was just what we needed for a long weekend. We were met by the owner's daughter and she showed through the house. We even found fresh baked cookies that she left for us. It was a perfect location to base from as it was right in the middle of the activities we were doing.

This place was a gem! Loved that we could walk to some local restaurants and the state park was like 3 mins away by car. The owners were wonderful and the entire rental process was very smooth. Would definitely stay again.

This was an excellent property near where my family needed to be. The property offered more than just a place to sleep, was super clean, comfortable and offered many amenities. The Host Family was very kind, responsive and genuinely pleasant to coordinate our stay with. Communications were clear, concise and informative. While our time there was short we will certainly want to stay at this property again for a longer period of time. Definitely a "must stay" property. Thank you!

This home was the perfect place for 3 couples to have a Thanksgiving Getaway. Very clean, well stocked with everything you could need, even to prepare a full traditional Thanksgiving meal. Hosts were excellent! Convenient to restaurants, grocery and local attractions. We definitely plan on returning.

Great location in Homosassa, close to boat ramp and river. Parking for boat and cars is abundant. The home is very clean and well maintained. It has a nice large outdoor covered entertaining/relaxing area. I thought the fresh baked cookies were very thoughtful. The check-in checkout process was very time oriented. They like to meet and greet, which required me to stay in touch with them since I was unsure of an exact arrival time. It made me feel anxious and rushed instead of relaxed. It took the fun out of exploring the house to find the nice things the hosts do to make you feel comfortable. I was asked on the day prior to checkout day what time I thought I would be leaving so they could clean with checkout instructions (the owners had already given at the meet and greet AND were on the info paper) even though checkout time was standard 11:00.

We brought our 3 grandchildren with us, they enjoyed the property, the huge waterguns, boardgames, smores around the fire ring, the fresh cookies delivered by MaryWe love Homosassa, everything was so close. We would definitely stay here again!
