If you’re looking for a great location that’s close to everything, this house has it. Short paddle to the springs and short drive to restaurants. We received a very thorough (45 min) tour to ensure we knew where everything was and what we could use prior to receiving the access information. The owner and her daughter were very thoughtful in the explanation, instructions, and stocking of items around the home. There were 5 kayaks and 1 paddle board available to guests which are accessible from the dock. They are shared with their two other Homosassa properties. This home receives priority for usage, but they ask that you let them know when you’ll use the kayaks so they can let the other properties know about availability. They have a boat on property that they will take you out on if you book it with them. That seems to apply to guests at other houses too. The owners dropped by one evening during our stay to get the boat from the lift and life vests from the porch to go out to see the holiday fireworks. We were on the porch when it happened and thought we had a runaway vehicle parking in the yard until we saw who got out. We loved the back porch which sits right on a canal off the river. Lots of seating and a great place to relax. It was peaceful listening to the birds and crickets as the sun went down. We enjoyed it each evening we were there.
