Ahead By A Century: Your Perfect Homosassa Getaway Awaits!

Family-friendly home in a gated community with all the bells and whistles. Boat ramp, dock, trailer parking, commercial ice machine, 6-passenger golf cart, kayak, EV charger, large gas grill, and more! You won't want to leave the house, but if you do, we're only a few minutes from Homosassa's must-see attractions, from our beloved manatees in the springs to local favorites like The Freezer, Crumps, and Florida Cracker.

When you drive through the oversized white gates to our community, you'll be just a short minute from launching your boat into the water and docking it behind our house. Ahead By A Century is located on one of the best deep water canals, with quick access to the Homosassa River and only 5 minutes away from some of the area's top destinations or a mere 30 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico.

Kayaking, fishing, and wildlife watching are just some of the many outdoor activities available. Watch the mermaids perform at Weeki Wachee or explore the beautiful Crystal River and Homosassa Springhead, home to manatees. For scuba enthusiasts, there's also great scuba diving in the area, with amazing grouper, snapper, cobia, hogfish, and more waiting to be discovered.

If you're looking for a break from the outdoors, you'll find plenty of delicious dining options nearby. Uber Eats, and Door Dash deliver to the area, and some of the best restaurants are just around the corner. Across the street from our favorite restaurant, Nautitime, is just a 10-minute walk from our door. Enjoy dishes like their famous peel-and-eat shrimp or wings. You'll also find world-famous Monkey Island and other popular spots like MacRaes's, The Freezer, and Florida Cracker Kitchen just 1.5 miles away.

This 2150 sq ft home is the perfect base for your Homosassa adventure. With a boat ramp just 100 yards away and an oversized dock, you'll have everything you need for a great fishing trip. And you won't have to worry about making daily ice runs, as there's a commercial ice machine in the garage for your convenience. On-site trailer parking is available, and with a two-car garage and long driveway, parking won't be a problem.

ABOUT THE ACCOMMODATIONS:

Every three spacious bedrooms feature a king bed, ample closet space, and a USB lamp for convenience.

Memorial weekend
This house was in a perfect location very nicely decorated and was perfect for 6 people . I loved the king beds in each room. They provided all the amenities you could need. The best part was the golf cart to use. It made it so convenient to get to the local places. We will definitely be staying here again.

Fantastic property
We very much enjoyed our stay at this home in a gated community. We brought our boat and were able to launch it and had access to a private boat slip. The property is central to everything in Homosassa and we enjoyed the springs, restaurants, and the river. Highly recommend.

Holiday Stay
We stayed in the house for 10 days over the holidays. The house had good space, was clean, and very well stocked. The house is on a canal right off the river so very good for boaters. It's also very close to old Homosassa and to the larger business district.

relaxing stay
We had a busy schedule when we were visiting Florida and every time we came back to this home we cherished the peace and European ambiance. One day when on the 2nd story porch we saw a manatee in the canal! Additionally, when taking a walk along the boardwalk we think we saw a stingray!

Intimate Wedding Stay
What a Wonderful Place to Stay! As we prepared for our intimate wedding ceremony in Homosassa!!! The accommodations were very comfortable and everything that we needed was there! One of my favorite amenities there is the Mr. Mister in the bathroom shower! I felt like I had my own private spa before the wedding. We had fun on the golf cart that was provided! The full length mirror was perfect to see all angles of my dress! I made a smoothie for breakfast and we grilled steaks one night. The kitchen was well stocked. And, yes, there was a Keurig coffee maker. I wished we would have had time to bring our boat as you can dock it at slip #12. There is room for the boat trailer too! Even though we will have our own place soon in Homosassa, we will definitely stay here again until our house is built!

This place has it all!
The space is expansive with plenty of room and all the supplies you need. Additionally they've thought of a bunch of little things to make a stay even more enjoyable. We took our 24' bay boat and the slip is within sight of the private launch and steps from the house. No issues navigating the canal or river at any tide. Catherine & Grant were excellent hosts. They were very communicative, and when a minor issue arose outside of their control they addressed it immediately and followed up to make sure all was well. They provide a digital guide book with restaurant recommendations and answers to most any question about the house, community and area that you can think of.

Scalloping Perfection!
We had such a great stay at the River House! We were in Homasassa for a long scalloping weekend with friends and family. Perfection! The house is so well equipped, clean, in the perfect location, etc! We loved having the community boat ramp, our own secure dock, and community pool. The location is great for getting out onto the Gulf for scalloping and then heading up river to cool off in the Springs. We picked up some fish dip at the Fish Market, had appetizers at Crumps, and got some ice cream at the Florida Cracker Monkey Bar. We throughly enjoyed Homasassa . Fun little Old Florida Fishing Village. Our host Catherine was super responsive, but everything in the house was great, so other than letting them know we were having a fantastic time, we did not need any help from our hosts. The check in and check out was super easy. The informational house book that Catherine has put together is amazing. And it was downloadable as an app on our phone. It had everything we needed to know about the house, the surrounding area, recommendations, and suggestions. It was incredible. Thanks for everything and we can’t wait to come back !

Great River home
We had a great time at the property. So many amenities that we did not have enough time to enjoy them all. There was plenty of room for my family. Other than food, pretty much anything you could need was there. We really enjoyed being able to use the golf cart to access the restaurants. Thank you again. We hope to be back again some day.
