Everything very clean. Extremely quiet location. Could use better/more comfortable furniture in the living area and more of it to accommodate larger groups. Overall a great place to stay. ##### Bryce O. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerry I. Mar 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Home in Homosassa We had never been to the nature coast of Florida and we were impressed with the natural beauty of the area and the property. The winding driveway from the entrance to the home through the palms and evergreens to the circular drive was beautiful. We have much more to explore in the area and enjoyed the absolute peace and quiet of the property. We hope to return next year. ##### Kerry I. Stayed 24 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bob L. Mar 17, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very nice private Stay The kayaking is excellent. 5 kayaks. Everything is Good. The house is spotless. The house is not a home and is run as a VRBO business. There are a lot of rules and fines for transgressions. The kitchen is minimally stocked with Walmart everything so don't expect to cook gourmet. The grill is charcoal and you must clean it or get fined $200.. The location and everything else is great. The Host is very responsive. ##### Bob L.
