Located in Old Historic Homosassa we are a 5-minute walk to the river hosting all the charming restaurants, monkey island, and McRae’s marina. The old mill tavern is within earshot and the sugar mill ruins right beside make a nice morning or evening stroll. The Ellie Schiller state park is just down the road about a half mile.
Guests will need a vehicle for travel to neighboring towns.
The golf cart is not street legal and will require that reserving guests sign a liability waiver for use. It can only be driven down to the river on our side.

Wonderful place. VERY clean. Just disappointed that we didn’t get to go to dinners on the golf cart all of the kids looked forward to getting to ride it.

This was probably one of the best homes we’ve stayed in! So CLEAN and spacious. Beautiful decor. Brit was quick to respond and was able to get us checked in a bit early when our plans adjusted. Great recommendations for local restaurants and tourist attractions. It was wonderful to have the golf cart to get to restaurants for dinner.
We would definitely stay again if we come back to the area!
