About this house rental

What we intend to become our retirement home in a few years, our 1300 sq. ft. home is on the Anclote River between the Greek Sponge docks and the Gulf.
Grill fresh fish and set up dinner on the dock, then boat out to the keys. Play golf nearby, hike or bike the Pinellas Trail that slips through the center of old Tarpon Springs.
With 2 bedrooms, 4 beds, we are set up for a very comfortable relaxed vacation for 4, with a pull-out queen in the living room for the occasional visitor.
We have replaced all the appliances. Our HVAC is sterilized at the intake with a UV filter to keep the environment healthy even for sensitive souls, like us. A laundry room and garage keep things comfortable. The best place to spend time is on our dock with a floating platform, which allow easy access onto our kayaks, or a small deck for grilling or relaxing

We have two bicycles for your use, and a great Necky tandem kayak as well as a solo that give you intimate access off our dock to the river and bayous.

Per Tarpon Springs zoning regulations our minimum stay is now 42 days.

If you have questions, send us an inquiry.

Thanks!

We stayed at the house while visiting grandkids and family. The home was perfect for our needs. Able to relax in the living room or on the screened porch. The deck is comfortable with a table and chairs. Our grandkids loved the dock. We fished and watched sting rays swim by. The tranquil neighborhood is just what we were looking for.

A perfect setting to relax and rejuvenate on the Anclote River. We enjoyed fishing, watching the birds, strolling the sponge docks, eating seafood, and watching the boats go by.

Betsy and Scott’s home on the Alcote River in Tarpon Springs, is a delight. Beautifully kept and a wonderful out look over the garden and dock. I loved whiling away a few hours in the Florida room especially first thing in the morning and the evenings. My husband enjoyed the dock for fishing and watching all the boats going in and out everyday, just as well as the fish weren’t too keen to bite! There is plenty to do and see in the area. Betsy was very friendly and helpful to deal with. Thank you for having us. We would recommend a visit.

The home was neat, clean, and easy to stay in. Kitchen was well furnished. We thoroughly enjoyed the screened porch overlooking the river and watching boats, as well as fishing from the dock. Easy location for tourist activities and a variety of dining out. Highly recommend for a couple or small size family. Scott and Betsy made the use of their home easy and welcoming.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay! The house is in a quiet neighborhood but is close to downtown Tarpon Springs, the Sponge Docks, restaurants, the grocery store, and Fred Howard Park. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the dock, nice breeze, seeing the boats go in and out, fishing, and watching various birds. We kayaked, rode bikes, laid in the hammock, and played cards at night out in the spacious sunroom. Everything was great, and we really appreciate Betsy and Scott sharing their home and having everything we needed.

Excited to share our 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 review of this idyllic home on the Anclote River in Tarpon Springs! We were looking for something “different” than the usual “beachfront” and came across this jewel! Think “Olde Florida” with live oak trees, lush tropical shrubs, and an inviting dock on a serene river! We had an absolute stellar week and loved the mixture of exploring the sponge docks and embracing the local Greek culture 🇬🇷 and restaurants! The food…Opa! So good! We also explored nearby Dunedin and their fun downtown shops, pier, and food. The interior of the home itself had a great “retro” vibe which brought back fond memories of growing up in Florida during the 60s and 70s! The laidback Florida room was the top spot for relaxation while enjoying the river view! Location is in a very nice and easily walkable neighborhood and also convenient to the sponge dock area and groceries, etc. The owners were great and super easy (and fast!) to communicate with. Our time “on the river” will be forever special to us and we will most definitely return as soon and as often as we can!

My husband and I have stayed here several times, and have thoroughly enjoyed every visit. Scott and Betsy are excellent hosts, and respond VERY quickly to any questions. Lots of things to do in Tarpon Springs and the nearby communities; there’s something for everyone. It’s also relaxing to just stay put and view the Anclote River from the dock (dolphins are regular visitors), or putter around with the kayaks.
