When driving up to the house, i was a little skeptical.....believe me dont be. This house is so comfy, decorated so you feel like you're at grandmas. Its beautiful and very clean. Had everything we needed and more. Kathy is a great host. Will definitely be back again
Needed an easy place to stay while cleaning out family's house. It was nice to come back to a clean place to relax. Neighborhood was very quiet and the landscaping really fun.
It was such a pleasant stay. The property is conveniently located for all the local venues and restaurants. The home is spacious, clean and well equipped.
Great location! Excellent communication!
This property is on a very quiet street. The garden out front.is beautiful with the azaleas, roses, and jasmine. The bedrooms are huge and the house is very clean. It's close great restaurants like the breakfast station and Charlie's Fish house. Thanks for opening your home my friends and I have a fantastic time.
Very enjoyable stay, just as I expected in Homosassa.
The amenities of home with a cute front porch located in a very quiet residential neighborhood. Attractions, eateries and shopping nearby.
The property was everything that we expected. The owner was quick to respond to a very small issue we had and corrected immediately. (TV)
The house was clean and tidy. The amenities were all we needed.
This is the cleanest vacation rental we have stayed in. It is quiet, very roomy and everything is in good working order. The host is wonderful to work with and responds immediately to any questions. Highly recommend this lovely home.
Great location. Cozy and clean. Lots of thoughtful amenities. Highly recommend
while visiting and fishing it was an excellent place to go back to. Very clean an comfortable. I didn't cook so I all I can say about the kitchen is the microwave and coffee pot worked and there is ample counter area. I would stay there again if the opportunity presents itself again.
Wonderful property. Beautiful garden seating area on the front porch. The beds were very comfortable and the house was sparkling clean. A fantastic value for the size, location, and quality. Thank you!
Located in a quiet area.
Was a nice place to stay as described
Very clean cozy house in a quiet area. Close to shopping and nice restaurants. Highly recommend this place.
I usually like to stay on the water just so I don’t have to fight boat ramp traffic. But Kathy’s place is a diamond in the rough. Not on the water but great location, clean, comfortable and just right! You can’t go wrong with booking this VRBO. I will be staying here again next year for scalloping season. Thank you for allowing us to share your home.
We had a wonderful stay in Homossasa FL. The town was wonderful and there was lots to do. The wildlife was great and so we're all the waters and fishing. A overall wonderful stay.
Beautiful hidden getaway. Peace and quite neighborhood. Home was very clean and cozy.
Excellent accommodations, clean and close to local attractions.
Great location. Quiet and friendly. Great host in Kathie.
This is a home from home in a good location for the Springs. It's in a quiet location although from a British perspective the layout of the properties are unusual. Everything you need is supplied by Kathie which is very helpful even down to providing new toothbrushes. The furnishings are very homely and not what you normally get with a rental. The front and back gardens do need some attention especially the back yard as you cannot sit out there which is a shame. The local wildlife is great, we had a variety of birds visiting including humming birds and a woodpecker. There is a resident gopher tortoise which has a burrow next to the front decking. Overall it is a very nice place to stay.
Enjoyed the stay. The property was around an area where we could visit family and friends. Enjoyed shopping at the local stores.
