About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Creek! in Old Homosassa across the street from the Freezer

Relax at this quiet, waterfront 1-bed/1-bath home featuring a full kitchen, comfortable living area, private screened-in porch, and in-unit laundry. Enjoy peaceful canal views right from your porch—perfect for morning coffee or evening unwind time. There’s plenty of parking available for cars and trailers, and you can cook up your fresh catch on the charcoal grill.

Bring your kayak, paddleboard, or small boat! The property offers easy water access, though please note the shallow water and low bridge (~6 ft clearance) limit access for large boats or vessels with tall tops, towers, or windshields. Flats boats, jon boats, surface drives, jet skis, and canoes are ideal. A small on-site boat ramp makes launching simple.

You’ll also love the location—just 200 ft from The Freezer and close to The Shed, Monkey Bar, and other popular local spots. Perfect for a relaxing waterfront stay with convenience at your doorstep.

This is a duplex, please see my other listing on VRBO. https://www.vrbo.com/3287824?unitId=3860920
