Tarpon Key Lodge is a one of a kind luxury vacation home, directly on the Gulf of Mexico. While enjoying the many amenities the lodge has to offer you might forget you are on a private island, until you look out one of the many glass windows and doors showing stunning panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico, salt marshes, and the Homosassa River. When gazing at these beautiful vistas, you are likely to see dolphins feeding in the shallows, an osprey soaring over the water, or manatees on their way to Homosassa Springs. Just bring your boat (or rent one or arrange for transport via Capt. Don Franklin's water taxi service) and relax!, while you experience this fully furnished island lodge.
