About this property

KEY LOCATION TO ENJOY FAMOUS SCALLOP SEASON

Sits on a private acre of land with some wooded area and wonderful private retreats, bbq.
Walk to community park with, olympic heated pool, beach volleyball, tennis courts, BBQ shared area. It is very centrally located, adjacent to the Crystal river airport and Bicentennial Park. Hunter Beach is 5 minutes away where kayaks can be rented to see the amazing THREE SISTER SPRINGS. It is an amazing experience, but you must be willing to row out to the springs since it is a good 35minutes there and 35minutes back, another way to experience the springs is to, take a pontoon tour that offers that site in its tour. Depending on the time of the year there are plenty of River Charters that offer manatee encounter experiences or simply will provide an assortment of river experiences. As per your stay with us, if you are not a woods person this is not the right place for you. If you however enjoy the sound of the crickets, the chirping of the birds, the view of a full moon, the smell of the woods and in general a nature person, this is an awesome retreat. I personally recommend as a Gulf tour to reach out to River Safaris where they host a nice GULF water tour on boat for $35.00 per person and it is about 3hours long its nice. For Golf lovers, the new CABOT CITRUS FARMS recently ignagurated..... AMAZING MUST GOLF IN FLORIDA.

Accommodation was clean but very cramped. There wasnt a kitchen in the rooms but there was an outdoor grill and a camper with a kitchen we were able to use. The host was great. She was knowledgeable about local attractions and knew all the best places to eat.

Went down to Crystal River with a great friend to explore the fishing and scalloping on a last minute fishing trip. This place is perfect for two travelers. We each got our own room and shared the bathroom. There was enough room to park our truck and boat. Good location off of a main strip. Our host had great communication and even left some donuts for us during check in that came in handy when we were out on the water.
