About this house rental

Ahead By A Century: Your Perfect Homosassa Getaway Awaits!

Family-friendly home in a gated community with all the bells and whistles. Boat ramp, dock, trailer parking, commercial ice machine, golf cart, kayak, EV charger, large gas grill, and more! You won't want to leave the house, but if you do, we're only a few minutes from Homosassa's must-see attractions, from our beloved manatees in the springs to local favorites like The Freezer, Crumps, and Florida Cracker.

When you drive through the oversized white gates to our community, you'll be just a short minute from launching your boat into the water and docking it behind our house. Ahead By A Century is located on one of the best deep water canals, with quick access to the Homosassa River and only 5 minutes away from some of the area's top destinations or a mere 30 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico.

Kayaking, fishing, and wildlife watching are just some of the many outdoor activities available. Watch the mermaids perform at Weeki Wachee or explore the beautiful Crystal River and Homosassa Springhead, home to manatees. For scuba enthusiasts, there's also great scuba diving in the area, with amazing grouper, snapper, cobia, hogfish, and more waiting to be discovered.

If you're looking for a break from the outdoors, you'll find plenty of delicious dining options nearby. Uber Eats, and Door Dash deliver to the area, and some of the best restaurants are just around the corner. Across the street from our favorite restaurant, Nautitime, is just a 10-minute walk from our door. Enjoy dishes like their famous peel-and-eat shrimp or wings. You'll also find world-famous Monkey Island and other popular spots like MacRaes's, The Freezer, and Florida Cracker Kitchen just 1.5 miles away.

This rental was the best stocked I’ve ever stayed at! Coffee, laundry, paper products, kitchen bags…. Awesome! We had a glitch with the ice maker but had a prompt response on how to deal with it. The beds were comfortable. The home was clean and the kitchen had everything you could ask for. The golf cart was great for local travel. The boat launch was close. Thank you Catherine.

We stayed here for the start of scallop season. We have a 28' boat and I will say that's likely the max size you want to bring; we were sticking out the back of the slip but not so much other boats couldn't navigate around. That and the neighborhood / ramp would make it hard if your boat was larger. The house was well equipped, spacious, clean, with several modern amenities (electric curtains, steam shower, ice machine). Overall 10/10 would rebook (and probably will!)

The house was great! Spacious enough for all eight of us! Kitchen well stocked. Boat slip and canal was convenient and easy to navigate. The golf cart and kayak added to the fun. Catherine was great, checking on us by text to see if all was well or if we needed anything. We will definitely be back!

The house, amenities, and location were excellent! The house was clean and the community of neighbors was quiet. I will plan on staying here again the next time I'm in Homosassa.

We have had the opportunity to stay in many short-term rentals; some good, some not so good. This home is hands down one of the nicest we have had the pleasure of renting. Perfect location on a canal just a few hundred feet from the main river and maybe a 10-minute ride to the springs to the left, and a 20-minute ride to the Gulf to the right. Also, just a few minutes from several nice restaurants on the river. I loved that this home was located in a nice, gated community and that a 6-person golf cart was included with the stay. We chose to use that to get to the local eateries. This home was very clean and well stocked. There were so many small touches such as shampoo, conditioner and body wash in both bathrooms, a well-stocked and supplied kitchen, and indoor and outdoor games. The bedroom we used was the first one on the left after you get to the top of the stairs and let me tell you, I slept so well in that bed! The owner manages the rental, and she is excellent about communicating all of the Infromation you will need for your stay. I would rate this one 10/10 and am looking ar re-booking.

Property was under light construction, didn't impede on our weekend at all!! Home was beautiful and so many touches of home! The owners were always available for questions or directions as needed. Boat ramp is convenient and the slip is super accessible. Location is excellent. I can't wait to go back!
