About this house rental
Meticulously remodeled to be the best vacation rental in the area, Otter's Den is wheel chair friendly with a chair lift in the garage and 3ft or wider doors throughout except in the guest hallway, bedroom and bath. 60 ft of dock space on a deep water canal means your boat is in your back yard ready to head for the Gulf, the springs, or even a waterfront restaurant. Most furniture and appliances are brand new including all beds (King in master bedroom, 2 twins that can be moved together in the guest bedroom.) Master bath area has a walk in closet, travertine (real stone) shower stall, and new toilet, sink, exhaust fan and light fixtures. Guest bath has tub, shower, and is newly tiled with all new fixtures as well. the kitchen and dining area sports a new dishwasher, electric stove with stainless hood, built in microwave, a huge walk-in pantry, double door refrigerator with ice maker and through the door water dispenser, toaster, blender, and quality flatware and service for 8. There is a 60 inch plasma TV in the living room, and LCD TV's in the bedrooms and kitchen. The home has vaulted ceilings and an 'open air' feel with lots of skylights and pocket doors that disappear into the walls leaving a vast open view of the spacious deck, the dock, the water and wildlife. A large 2 car garage and driveway should take car of your vehicles, but there is extra parking nearby for boat trailers and possibly an RV. Recreational amenities include 2 bicycles, a double kayak, a single kayak, canoe, 2 spinning rods with tackle for fishing off the dock. Serious anglers should bring their own gear. A four person 14ft Carolina Skiff with 2 bench seats, Bimini top and 9.9 hp Evinrude four stroke motor is available to qualified boaters for an additional fee. The house is on a private paved single lane road facing 3 acres of undeveloped deciduous woods. Most houses in this neighborhood are owned by weekenders who come 'up to the river' for fishing, boating, or just to relax.

Great large house with lots of extras. Large garage that can fit a truck. Large dock space and good trailer parking. The turn on the road is tight with a larger trailer, but manageable. Will definitely will stay again.

Wonderful week at Otters Den again. Our second stay there and already booked again for next years scallop season. Everything was in order. The home is well appointed with everything you could possibly need (and more) for a nice stay. Terry is a great host and the neighbors are very friendly too which is something you may not often get during a busy rental season! Local dining locations can get very crowded, so we opted to provision the week to eat at home which turned out to be a much better and relaxing option although we did dine out our last night. Thank You Terry for a great week at your beautiful home. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Greg, Carolyn and Olivia

Third time staying at Otter's Den and we can't wait to go back! Terry has thought of everything, it's a wonderful home with all the amenities. Clean, beautiful spot, comfortable beds, nicely decorated, space to spread out, close to restaurants, really perfect... it's just hard to leave!

The house was very spacious, brightly lit and a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and beautiful outdoor space. We docked our boat and appreciated all of the amenities which are accurate in the listing.

This home is perfect for scalloping and fishing, and it is close to all the party places on the water. It is cozy and well-equipped, and we loved the view. Terry is a very responsive and helpful host. We are already booked for next year!

We loved everything about the house - the location, owner, neighbors and all the comforts of home. Great boat dockage and a good place to store the trailer. House is spacious, clean, organized and has a well equipped kitchen. We will definitely be returning.

This is a beautiful home in the middle of natural Florida. We were easily able to dock our boat for the entire stay. Even if you do not have a boat, this is a perfect location. We enjoyed the serenity of the area. Communication with the host was easy, and the home was perfectly clean and beautifully decorated. We look forward to returning.

We felt that Otter's Den was a GREAT find and we will return. Terry is a wonderful host. The house was open and very welcoming at check in. It is tastefully decorated and well appointed with everything you need from kitchen to dock, bath and beds. The pantry is large, has more items than we could possibly use and is well organized. There is more than sufficient cooking/ counter space in the kitchen for two to work comfortably. For a two bedroom two bath home, it is very large in living space. The beds are also very comfortable. We are experienced boaters from SW Florida and Jupiter. We brought our 24' Pathfinder which seems to be a perfect boat for this area. Trailer parking is directly across the road as described, however be advised it was somewhat of a tight fit as the "road" is a single car + drive and anything larger than a 24 up to about a 26 will require some creative maneuvering but doable with a short bed truck (I have a 4 door long bed). Over 26, I would contact the host first. Terry is a great host will most certainly give you the best advice. Tide rise and fall are minimal at around 1ft between high and low on a new moon. There is debris in the canal waters from the recent hurricane and on a high tide, a watchful eye on the bow is a good idea. There are commercial boats (crabbers) at the end of the canal before going out into the river and they are very active especially now during stone crab season. Last advice from a Captain- STAY ON THE MARKERS. Know the Rules.

This is old florida paradise at its best! Beautiful view, wonderful wildlife and everything you need close by. The home is immaculate and the owner couldn’t be nicer or more helpful! Will always stay here at the Otters Den when we travel to the area!

We enjoyed our stay in this very spacious home. It had everything we needed and the best seafood restaurants nearby. I would highly recommend the Otters Den to anyone visiting Homosassa.

I typically use VRBO 2-3 times per year and Otter's Den is definitely the cleanliest, well stocked and most organized that I have rented. Kudos to the cleaning crew! Beautiful spot, great dock, nicely accommodated our 24 foot boat. Beds and seating very comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need. It's really perfect. Terry is close by and available if needed. Thank you Terry for making your wonderful home available to rent, we'll be back!

This was our third time staying in this rental home. Our family was very comfortable and really enjoyed our stay. We were able to bring our small dog with us. Being able to keep our boat in the water at the home's dock was convenient and a big plus for us.

Beautiful home, spacious and comfortable with all the amenities. Deck and dock are terrific and access to the canals and river is easy. Owner next door is readily accessible and eager to respond to any problems or needs. The dishwasher failed while we were there and a new one was installed in two days, even tho the owner had to drive quite a ways to get it and put it in himself. Restaurants, shops and parks are nearby. Nice dog park, too, within 10 minutes.
Highly recommended.

Great layout. Lots of room for family time as well as separate space when needed. Had our 20 and 11 year olds and they didn’t need to be in each others hair. Great deck facing canal. Parking would be tight for multiple vehicles, owner has options across road and possibly offsite, so it’s not a big deal
Hope to return when Mother Nature isn’t playing cruel pranks on the south

We loved the house! Beautiful home and excellent location. Big enclosed porch and deck for relaxing, right on the water. We took the boat out to the river, right to the head of the springs. Lots of restaurants within a few minutes drive. Many attractions within 30 minutes: we stayed for five days and never ran out of things to do. The owner lives next door and responded right away to questions, but otherwise you wouldn’t know he was there. Great experience!

Everything in the house was in excellent condition! It was nice to have a big garage with floats and pool noodles that we took to Hunter Springs. We didn't get to ride the bikes because of a tropical storm but we enjoyed a nice canoe ride. It was great to be able to get on the boats right from the back deck.

Owner was absolutely the best! Everything was in perfect working order amenities were awesome. The house is more spacious than the pictures look. Terry has truly thought of everything and wants you to use the house like your home away from home. Little perfect gem in Homosassa.

House was bigger than appeared from the pictures. Spacious layout. Sectional cough was super comfortable. Master room bed was comfortable. House was clean and smelled good. Love the skylights for natural lighting. My F-150 even fit in the garage. It's great that it is one of the first canals when you come to the idle zone in the river. More convenient that we didnt have to bake in the sun while idling in the river on the boat.

Fantastic
The house is very clean, great location. The Dock was able to fit two boats. The owner is very accommodating, we had a issue with a door knob, brought it to his attention and he fixed it. Would definitely go back.

Perfect
The home was very clean and everything was well organized. Kudos to the cleaning crew they truly do an amazing job! Home appeared bigger and more open than the pictures, probably due to the numerous sky lights, really nice. The furniture and beds were comfortable. Sunroom coming off the back deck was handy. We have rented through VRBO-20 times or more and hands down this home was by far the cleanest. Fit our needs perfectly! Thank you Terry!

Scallop retreat
We’ve stayed in Homosassa at several other VRBOs for scallop season and this was our favorite property/property owner thus far. Owner lives next door and was absently accommodating meaning he was responsive and accommodating of our needs, but did not make us feel watched. We will be back!

Terry's rentals never disappoint
Everything was perfect. Ladies, the kitchen is well stocked with everything you will need (except maybe some off the wall spices). The house is roomy, the master bed was comfy, and the dock space more than ample. Terry is a wonderful host.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Homosassa, this home was so welcoming. It was our home away from home for the week, and we felt right at home, relaxing and enjoying the area. Thanks Terry!

Beautiful home in the perfect location!
Terry’s home on the water in Old Homosassa was the perfect place for us to launch our daily paddle boarding adventures from. The beds were super comfortable, the home was spacious and lovingly decorated. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The dock is the perfect spot to enjoy coffee in the morning and a fire pit chat in the evening. And it’s centrally located to some of Florida’s most beautiful blue springs paddles!

Birthday Week at Otters Den!
My husband & I brought our boat here because it was perfect for our week on the Hommassa! We do all Florida rivers with our boat, this place is a keeper!
House was very spacious and had all we needed. Owner even checked beforehand for me if he had a crockpot because I knew what meals I was making for the week. Appears new big sectional couch in living room with electric recliners, chocolate colored. Listing picture shows white leather coach and I'm glad no longer there.
We loved the back sun room for chilling with water view and had our breakfast there.
We had a bit of battery trouble with our boat 1st day and the owner (lives next door) had a marine charger for us. We ultimately bought a new battery so no time wasted.
The multi level deck was perfect and the side stone patio for fire was awesome, we had a fire every night. Only noting that the neighbor's back outdoor lights were a little annoying into our space, but I brought tapestries to hang on railing to shade the lights.
On the water we saw lots of Manatees water so clear!
Saw monkey island, appears 3 or 4 monkeys reside - personally I think that's a sad display of animals stuck on a tiny tiny island in middle of river. Another discussion for another forum. ;-)
Even though we checked and double checked, we left a few things and owner msged me to say he would send to us (still waiting tho)
Anyway, you'll love this place! We did!
We'll be back!
