Great time. Perfect for our family.
3.0 / 5.0
First, let me admit my mistake- I forgot to list my dog as attending, which was a surprise to the owner. We worked it out and I paid the pet fee. However…the house needs a lot of TLC. While there are more than enough pillows and towels, all are paper thin. The “fully stocked” kitchen is stocked with pots and pans that are quite old and some without handles. There are no large bowls for serving or mixing. I had to use soup pots to serve salads and popcorn in. Knobs are missing from drawers and cabinets, there are holes in the lanai, allowing bugs in and the lighting in the house is pretty dismal. Lots of lamps but bulbs are pretty weak. We very much enjoyed the decor, the size of the house, the pool and the stove/oven.
Communication with the owner was curt at best. I didn’t hear from her one time until I reached out the day before we got there to understand how I was going to get into the house. I heard from her again the night before we left to ask how everything was and then the day we left to tell me I didn’t pay a pet fee. Again, the pet thing was my mistake and I happily paid the fee, but she was rude and accusatory.

Everything was neat and clean. The house was beautiful and private. The pool was warm (definitely recommend paying the extra for heating it in the spring and fall. My friends and I had a lovely time. We would highly recommend.

We (a group of 4 friends) used this as a base for a golf trip to Cabot Citrus Farms. It’s about 20 minutes from the course and had nice amenities (screened in pool, grill). It was also within a short drive of several bars/restaurants. I would stay here again.

The host was easy to communicate with but nothing got done with the issues!
1. There was a pool but hearing the pool was extra. I was willing to pay to heat it for the days we would be there, but alas the heater was broken so access to the beautiful pool just taunted my grandchildren!
2. There was a grill on the pool deck, but no filled propane tanks. We wanted to grill so we had to go make the exchange for a propane tank.
3. There was a fire pit as pictured but as we started towards the forgot, we smelled propane gas and I looked around to find out the house used propane gas and I was afraid there was a leak so I reported this to the owner and we did not light the fire pit.
4. The electrical breaker went out in the upstairs bathroom and the electrical panel was in the basement which we did not have access to so I notified the owner. She responded immediately telling me she was coming, but then responded her husband would be there in the morning but he never came.
5. Finally, my daughter slept in the “mermaid” room and had bites all over her legs and arms. When she brought it to our attention we looked but weren’t too concerned until there were more after the second night. I can’t be sure they were bedbugs, but we took the necessary precautions about suitcases and clothes when we got home

From the beginning to the end, everything was outstanding. Pamela, the host, is quick to respond (i.e. good pizza for take-out). Thank you for your great hospitality. We would definitely stay again.

Our annual family scalloping trip was a huge success and everyone had a fantastic time thanks to Pamela. We had a wonderful stay in her home and i would highly recommend it to others for their stay as well.

This house was absolutely adorable! Loved the music playing when we arrived. The rooms were great and we loved the pool! Mother Nature decided to pay us a visit during our stay so we lost power twice. However it was nice listening to the rain on the balcony. The flashlights in the house weren't working, but after a phone call to Pamela, she got us a nice lantern flashlight to use. I would absolutely recommend this house to anyone wanting to stay in the Homosassa area.

This home was amazing. We were able to enjoy time with family and be close to many things. We loved the outside porch/pool area. The pool was a little chilly but we managed. We would absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful house! Very clean and comfortable. Loved the decor, made it seem homey yet also like we were on vacation. We were able to walk to the the Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park. Easy drive to groceries, restaurants, kayaking, and boat tours. Saw lots of manatees on our river trips!
We only had a few small issues which Pamela came out and took care of the first day. Pool was a great size and once it heated up we all enjoyed it and the floaties provided. My only suggestion would be to replace the hammocks and maybe keep them on the porch for guests to put out. We couldn't use the ones that were there because they had been left out and were dirty and covered with mold. And it would be nice to have an earlier check in time. But we would definitely stay here again if we are in the area!

We enjoyed the property very much. The house was the perfect size, and even though the pool was a bit cold, our grandson enjoyed the pool. The fire pit was perfect for some s’mores and enjoying the night. We look forward to getting back soon.

This was a great house for a family trip! We swam in the pool, watched movies, and played games. This was a very adult and kid friendly house. If I had a question, Pamela was very quick to respond and was great all around!

Great Location
We had 25 people travel to Homosassa for our annual scalloping trip! We had 3 house and this property was one of them! The house was perfect for our large group! We rented the entire house and loved staying there! Great location to our other houses and our favorite restaurants and bars! Pamela was an amazing host, easy to get a hold of and very accommodating! We will definitely stay here in the future!!

Awesome stay at the Blue Lagoon!
Our family of 8 had a wonderful stay at this property! The home was very clean and spacious. The outside area was amazing with hammocks to relax, a firepit and chairs, a large screened in pool and patio area with great seating. Pamela was also easy to communicate with. We had an awesome time and would definitely choose this property again!

Blue Lagoon Provides Relaxing Getaway
The Blue Lagoon was a great getaway from the normal hustle and bustle of our everyday life. The house exceeded our expectations for cleanliness--this was the cleanest VRBO rental we've ever had, and we've had several. The location was excellent for the area, and we very much enjoyed the pool. Thank you, Pamela, for an excellent week away from it all!

Good house for pets
If you're picky this is not the house for you. Positives include a large home for families and pets, and a pool (which we could not use due to record low temps when we were there - even heated the pool never got warm). Nice and adequate towels. Nice stove. Good location. Negatives include inadequate plates/dishes, old pots/pans, lack of blankets/bedding, lots of stairs, no instructions for tvs/channels, and a heating system that is so loud it will wake you up when it cuts on/off. Needs a good cleaning. Has potential but owner needs to bring it up a level or two with better decor and better quality and more utensils. We (frequent renters throughout the Southeast and Florida) left feeling disappointed.

Wonderful house for a family vacation
It is a challenge to find a home of this size at a reasonable price - especially around the holidays. Prior to making the reservation, I emailed Pam several times - and each time she responded promptly. She is simply one of the best hosts from whom we have ever rented. Even to the point of picking up a grocery order so that we would have food in the house upon our (very late night) arrival.
We had a minor issue with the temperature of the heated pool upon our arrival, which took a couple days to resolve. But for the remainder of our stay, it was comfy and warm.
The house is on a quiet dead end road and about 1/2 mile from a fun wildlife park. A beautiful white sands beach is about 20 minutes away and there are several well stocked grocery stores and restaurants nearby.
We were very happy with our decision to stay at the Blue Lagoon!

Wonderful Place
Wonderful place with so much to do! Pamela was very responsive and accomodating! We very much enjoyed the heated pool and all the activities we had. Although there is much to enjoy in the area, we preferred to hang around the house! Thanks for a great stay!

Felt like home!
Every year we treat the family and grandkids to a week vacation when school lets out. We have done Captiva and Palm Island for years. We decided to change the vibe and experience Homasassa. We had so much fun! Airboat ride, pontoon rental, fishing, floating, cookouts, pool fun, and more
Check out Shelley’s fish market. We had fresh snapper, grouper, tuna, clams and amazing fish spread! We went there daily for our dinner to bring back and cook. The Mill Tavern was a nice spot to hit up for wings.
The house? Perfect. When you walk into a Vrbo with music playing and you find a lime squeezer, you know the host took care of your every need. The home lacked nothing.
We had some rain and the frogs were insane!
Now, let’s chit chat about Pamela our host. Amazing lady. If she lived next door to me in St Petersburg, she would be my BFF! She gave advice when we asked, offered or asked if we needed anything and left us alone. Perfect
Any questions? Feel free to contact me at [email protected]
Thanks Pamela!!

Absolutely fantastic!!
I really can't say enough good things about Pamela and her property. The house is just like the pictures, , maybe even better! When we first walked in we thought it had a lot of charm that you just can't capture in a photo. The master bedroom is huge, with 2 closets, a small couch and chair and a connecting bathroom. The bathroom was very well stocked with supplies and towels. The main floor bath was also well stocked with towels and supplies. All the beds we used were very comfortable. The kitchen is big, with lots of cupboards that were stocked with pretty much everything you would need to cook and eat with. We loved the pool area! It was so nice to have the whole thing screened in!! Pamela has a lot of different activities, both for in the pool and in the yard. (She also has a closet stocked with games, arts and crafts, etc.) The washer and dryer in the pool area was a bonus! She also has a basket full of beach towels for your use, which was really nice! We used the bon fire pit and loved it! (My husband just bought a couple of bundles of wood at the Publix 5 minutes away) We also loved the fenced in area for our dog! Over all, I just can't say enough good things about the property and Pamela!! It was a much needed, very relaxing trip!! We can't wait to go back!

Great Area
We just left after 4 nights. Pam was awesome. House is bigger than appears in the pictures. Very clean. We had one big issue with the pool not heating, wasn't ever warm enough so didn't get my pool time as planned, but heater was working when I left so it's definitely warm for the next guests! Enjoy!

Easy family trip
We stayed with our three children (ages 5, 8 and 11) and met my sister’s family (her children are 2 and 5). The heated pool was a big hit, the kids were in it several hours per a day. Pam made everything easy, she was so flexible, and even let us use her kayaks on a private dock on the end of the street. The stay was very easy, perfect for a family with young kids.

We stayed for a weekend with 6 adults and one toddler ... all one family. The home is really lovely ... not brand new but very comfortable, clean, and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed the heated pool and fire pit. Pamela puts a lot of effort into ensuring that her guests have lots to do and feel very welcome there. Communication with her was excellent, with her responses to my questions being virtually immediate. The area is also lovely and offers all kinds of activities. We rented a pontoon boat and were joined by a pod of dolphins out by Shell Island. I would definitely recommend this house for a fun, relaxing getaway to Homossassa or Crystal River.

Great stay
We had a great stay here. The house is much bigger and open than I would have assessed from the pictures. Heated pool was amazing in the cooler Florida months, and Pamela was an amazing host. Available whenever needed and very responsive to all questions and needs. Will definitely stay here again if the occasion arises
