House was beautiful and amazing. We are a family of 10 and everyone had a great time. The property is up to date, spacious and clean. It feels like your in the middle of no where but in reality your only 10 minutes from town. Lots of privacy which we liked. We had no issue’s with crime or unfriendly people.
House is fully stocked with everything you will need to include cooking, dining, cleaning, linen, games etc. Charity is amazing, very friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable about the area. We stayed here for a scalloping trip. Plenty of room for a 25’ tritoon, truck and minivan. Lots of good restaurants within 10-15 minute drive. Multiple boat ramps 10-20 min drive. I would recommend Pete’s Pier boat ramp. Wawa is on the way for daily ice, fuel, beer, drinks, snacks etc and is literally 3 minutes from the boat ramp. Pete’s Pier is a big, spacious fresh water boat ramp next to the springs, and only 15-20 minutes enjoyable boat ride to the gulf. Crystal river is very navigable with no pucker factors that Homosassa has. In my opinion crystal river is much more enjoyable and relaxing for boat operators. You can hang out in the springs, swim with manatees, snorkel, fish etc. If you don’t have a boat you can rent boats, kayaks or take a charter for anything you want to do.
I highly recommend this VRBO, area and Charity. We will definitely be back for future scalloping/fishing trips.
