About this property

Tranquil Waterfront Cottage. 1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom. Sleeps 2

Lovely, beautifully furnished 1 bedroom 1 bath cottage for 2 adults. Perfect for your honeymoon or romantic getaway, but if needed there is room for 2 small children on the living room sectional. You are overlooking a Crystal clear waterway that leads to the Halls River. The River runs thru several lakes on its way to the Homosassa River then to the Gulf of Mexico. Good fishing in crystal clear water right off your patio. Bass, Bluegill, Mullet, Porgy, Sheepshead & stingrays are some of many different varieties that frequent the area. The cottage is a great area for sight seeing, manatee, porpoise, otters, turtles and stingrays frequent the waterways off your dock. Several great blue heron, ibis, many bard owls and wood storks also frequent your back yard. Just recently we’ve had a white peacock that visits every couple of days. We’ve named her princess. She is just beautiful !! There are also a great variety of birds in the area and most of our waterways are bird sanctuaries . You have a dock for a small boat and plenty of room to park your boat and trailer. The cottage comes complete with life vests, 4 person paddle boat, 2 kayaks and a canoe. A lovely yard that is fenced on 2 sides has water on the other two sides. A quiet and charming area to relax.

We loved our stay! The hosts are soooo welcoming and helpful. I'm sure I have never been greeted by handwritten letter from the hosts with places to go, eat, and shop. They check in with us and suggested outings. The house is so cute and perfect for us for this experience. Yes, sitting in the backyard at night by the river is a bit like being in Jurassic Park with the sounds and movements of nature all around, but that's exactly what you get and want with a Crystal River experience. Thank you! We hope to be back. Best wishes to our hosts!

This cottage is a tranquil, beautiful peace of paradise. Located on a large corner lot with inviting seating on different spots along the stream. The inside is perfect for a couple get-away with many helpful necessities. We used the paddle boat with paddles for a short water trip. It is very convenient to Homosassa Springs state park and restaurants abound. Only downside is I wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful time here. The property was so cute. Just as pictured. The owner, Dennis, couldn’t have been nicer. It was so peaceful and we enjoyed sitting outside and watching the wildlife. We saw a family of otters, lots of fish and the neighborhood white peacock, Princess. She was beautiful. It was definitely a great place to stay.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay!First night we watched a Bard Owl Fish. Everyday the water was bussing with life, too many fish to count. The last morning we saw young manatees and a loon. The cottage is perfect and has all the amenities to make you comfortable and feel welcomed. The location is perfect.

You will enjoy your stay here. Such a quaint place. We didn’t want to leave. Right in the middle of everything, restaurants and activities. The hosts were fabulous. They left information and brochures for all the spots to visit. The bed was comfy. We saw lots of fish, an otter swam by, circled back and poked his head up to look at us. We also saw the neighborhood albino peacock. It’s very quiet and restful. We will definitely come back! Thank you Debbie and Dennis!

This cute cottage was everything we hoped for and more! Our favorite part was watching the sea otters swim by. They have kayaks that we used to paddle down Margarita Grill. We docked the kayaks and ate at the restaurant. On the way we saw manatee, turtles, fish, and so many birds. We also saw the emu and llamas at Emu Island. There's also fishing poles you can use. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals except for the food. There's a grill outside, coffee maker with k cups and creamer, and cold bottles of water in the refrigerator. The wifi and Roku worked great! We could tell that the owners put a lot work into making this place a comfortable, memorable, enjoyable, worry-free, holiday oasis. The location and extra amenities make it an incredible value! We will definitely be back!
