Well stocked and clean. Nice furnishings. Host lives next door but does not interfere unless called. Would consider renting again.

Place was everything it was advertised for. Great kitchen equipment, furnishings & decor. Loved it!

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.

The location was perfect for our family to stay for scalloping season. Great boat dock and near the best restaurants.

Exactly what we needed.

One of the best properties we’ve stay in! Terry has thoughtfully provided everything you need for your stay! Spotlessly clean and comfortable seating and bed. Right at home, strongly recommended!

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

Gorgeous view, immaculate property and extremely helpful owner! Everything perfect and just right for a quiet retreat , but centrally located to everything this charming town has to offer. The woldlife is a big plus as well! Mendy and Mike Naples, FL

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.

Everything about this experience was excellent. The property is absolutely beautiful and perfectly equipped. The location is spectacular. It has everything we needed more! Can’t wait to return.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

Terry is a perfect host. We had everything we needed and the house is perfectly located in Old Homosassa.

It was easy to rent, clean and everything you need for your stay

The property, location, and the owner were all top-notch. We hope to visit again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Peaceful place on the water. House was cheerfully decorated with everything you could have wanted or needed available!! Whether relaxing on the decks or exploring the area it was perfect for us. Thanks for a wonderful time.

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!

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!

If I could give it more stars,I would. Everything was perfect, very comfortable and such a pretty view of the canal.

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! Boni Aiello St Petersburg FL

The Otters Den is a beautiful home! Great location, a short Kayak or Bike ride (which are supplied) to many of the local eateries and landmarks. Kitchen is very well equipped. Cant say enough positive things!!
