About this property

Waterfont Home, Heated Pool, Kayaks, and Ice Machine.

Come visit beautiful Crystal River and relax in our house. Take any of our 4 kayaks across the bay to the famous Three Sisters Springs and see the manatees. Head out to the Gulf of Mexico in your boat for some great fishing or the always popular scalloping (when in season). We have a 50' dock with a floating section for ease of launching the kayaks. There is an ice machine in the garage that produces enough ice to keep your coolers full. A heated screened-in pool for family and friends to enjoy. Our house is just a short distance to Ft. Island Gulf beach where you can sit and relax while the kids play in the water. Just past the house is access to two boat ramps. This home is fully furnished with 3 flat screen TVs with cable. There are 2 queen beds in the guest bedrooms. A king size bed in the master bedroom leaving plenty of sleeping room for everyone. For your convenience, we provide FREE wireless Internet. We have a high-efficiency washer and dryer available for your use. Linens and towels are provided for your use. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you will need to cook with (blender, coffee pot, microwave, toaster). A BBQ grill is also provided for outdoor grilling.
The house is located just a short distance to a grocery store, restaurants, and shopping in historic downtown Crystal River, Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park, walking and bike trails, scuba diving, and swimming with the manatees.
Boat Docking and Canal:
We have a 50' dock with a small floating dock attached that leaves about 30' of dock space for 1 boat. We are in the corner of the cove, there is not enough room to tie boats side by side, so only 1 boat will fit on our dock. The canal can get shallow in spots at low tide, less than 2' during the summer months and less than that during the winter months.

You will make memories to last a lifetime here!

Lovely house in beautiful setting

The house was spacious and well stocked with everything we needed. The cookware in the kitchen was great and it was nice that there were some basic spices to use. We didn't get around to using the kayaks, but they were in excellent condition. The pool was lovely. Mark was very prompt with responding to any questions. Beautiful house, would definitely recommend staying here if you're exploring the area.

This place was perfect! Clean with all the amenities. We enjoyed the quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Loved being on the river so we could kayak to three sisters. The pool was amazing after a hot day on the river. Mike was available to answer our questions when needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location great house

This is the third or fourth time I have stayed at this property, I love it because of the location, You can pop your kayaks right in the canal or you can easily drive to other places. The house is well stocked and very clean.

Great Place to Stay

Great place to stay especially if you have your own boat. Plenty of dock space and not far from the local boat ramp. House was very cozy and clean. Full appliances, cookware, and grill. The back patio and pool were relaxing and Smart TVs throughout the house. And the large icemaker was a bonus.

Great house in great location

The house was wonderful. Great location on the canal, and the pool was amazing. Everything we needed was at the house, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Some people have said that the driveway can be hard to get out of, but we found that if there was no one on the road when you arrived, backing in made it extremely easy to leave. We love it and look forward to coming back.
