The Fish House - AWESOME BOAT RAMP -Waterfront -Scalloping-Fishing

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved The Fish House! This home was the perfect getaway! It was so peaceful and quiet, with a beautiful view that made it easy to relax and unwind. I was only in town for a quick work trip, but I truly enjoyed my stay. The owner was incredibly accommodating and made everything so easy and welcoming. I only wish I could have stayed longer! I will definitely be back and highly recommend The Fish House to anyone looking for a wonderful place to stay!"

The Studio at Mason Creek Preserve - Old Homosassa

10/10 Excellent

"WOW — this place was an absolute hidden gem, and we loved every minute of our stay\!The property has both a loft and a studio, and we stayed in the studio\. It was absolutely perfect\. From the moment we arrived, it felt peaceful, private, and almost like being tucked away in your own little treehouse surrounded by nature\.We were able to bring our fur babies with us, which made the stay even more special, and they loved it just as much as we did\. Outside, you’ll see the cutest little frogs and lots of lizards, which adds to the beautiful Florida nature experience\.The studio was extremely clean, cozy, and comfortable\. The bed was very comfortable, and the owners clearly thought of every little detail\. A coffee maker, dishes, silverware, wine glasses, and other small conveniences are all available if you need them\. We honestly didn’t use most of them, but it was so nice knowing everything was there\.It truly feels like staying in a really nice hotel — except better, because you have privacy and don’t have people all around you\. It was quiet, relaxing, and exactly what we needed\.The location is also fantastic\. You’re close to so many great restaurants and things to do while still feeling completely tucked away\. The owners were incredibly welcoming, checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, and even gave us recommendations for places to visit and eat\.We loved our stay so much that when another property cancelled on us, we extended our stay here f"
