NEW on the Homosassa Vacation Rental market! Beautiful 2/2 private home in the much-desired Blue Water Forest subdivision of Homosassa. Our home sits on a peninsula surrounded by the crystal-clear water of the Homosassa Springs that the manatees call home. Located at the end of a cul -de sac street and 25 acres of beautiful forest at the rear and south side of the home, you enjoy the peace and quiet of nature after a day on the water. The home is a split bedroom plan to offer privacy of your traveling partners. The home has been completely renovated, furnished and supplied to help you relax and enjoy your vacation time. There's even a beautiful bar set up in the main room. The home has plenty of parking with an extended driveway for boat parking or RV and two additional vehicles. Relax indoors in the AC or outside in the screened in patio while enjoying nature. There is a firepit in the rear of the house where you can enjoy a warm fire or roast your smores. The home is 1-2 miles between Publix Grocery, Bars, Restaurants, Boat Ramps and a host of other amenities in the area. We are also only 7 miles from our neighbor Crystal River. You won't find a more beautiful neighborhood in Homosassa where the "Blue Water Springs" boating / swimming life is more active. You can almost walk from boat to boat on the weekends. We are also next to the Homosassa Nature Park attraction on the river. Fishing, boating, swimming with the manatees, enjoying the waterfront bars / restaurants or just enjoying nature and peace, it's right here!

Amazing place right in the middle of the best part of Old Homosassa
We enjoyed a great weekend of fishing, swimming in the springs with Manatees, and walking through the Ellie Shiller Forest seeing red deer, black hogs, a couple huge Owls... The home was extremely comfortable and smartly decorated for the location. The kitchen had everything, the neighbors were nice, and the neighborhood was quiet. The restaurants still very nearby with a great night life vibe, and the food amazing, especially the bar n grills on the River. We also really enjoyed Yulee street at the O'l Mill with its outdoor live music and the JRs Burgers' to-die-for Steak & Cheese - a local dive on the canal. It was a much needed vacation at a great place that I'd gladly return to.

"Thank you Scott and Crystal, it was a pleasure to have your family as our guest and we welcome you back anytime. We’re glad it all went so well for you and the home was all the comforts of home. Take care and stay safe."
Everything in the description and More!
The location is incredible, the house was fantastic, spotless and comfortable, and the Homosassa Springs area was a pleasant surprise. The house was perfect for us, a retired couple, we just wish we would have had another one of our couple friends to share it together. The screened in porch was my wife's happy place. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need, and we even grilled one night. Great wildlife parks, fresh natural springs, waterfront restaurants all very close by, and a short ride to the Gulf made for a wonderful stay. We will definitely be back to the Jolly Roger. Thanks Mike!
