ADD AN EXTRA AFTERNOON OF FUN! See details at bottom.

HAVE IT ALL in this beautiful 3/2 waterfront home with 50' of seawall and 24' floating dock! We think you'll love our home! Be sure to click on video for a little better look. Located on a deep-water canal just 6 lots in from the main river, we are half way between Shell Island/Gulf and Kings Bay/Three Sisters Springs. Keep a look out for manatees or dolphins while eating your Cheerios! Our bar height dining table gives a great view of the canal and makes every meal a potential adventure.

NEW FOR 2022: We just put in a 24' floating dock! Makes life much easier for all of our boaters. Also we now have a 10x12 area over the water so that you can see all the way down our canal to the main river! We have LIMITED PARKING: 3 vehicles & 1 boat trailer. Second boat must be pre-approved.

Having 3 King beds with flat screen TVs in all bedrooms, this house comfortably sleeps 6 adults. No fold out sofas or bunk beds! The bathrooms have just been remodeled. Master bath has tub/shower and the other is a walk-in shower. The kitchen is spacious and fully stocked with everything we think you will need during your stay. We especially like the dining room / living room overlooking the canal. Cozy seating area with 55" TV, fireplace and full wall of windows makes this room the star of the house!

The screened porch also has a great view of the water and the shade from the large oak tree keeps the temperature down in the afternoon. Cook up your fresh catch on the gas grill on the back deck. Relax by the water & watch boats go by!

Location makes this house a dream! You are right in the middle of everything by car or by boat. By car you are 1 mile from boat launch and just a bit more to Twin Rivers Marina. 4 miles gets you to the beach and some spectacular sunsets! 4 miles the opposite direction gets you to Plantation Golf Course, grocery store, restaurants and the rest of civilization. By boat you are just 6 houses in from the Crystal River and the beginning of your adventures! 15-20 minutes to Shell Island and then on to fishing or scalloping. And it takes even less time to get you back to Kings Bay. Take a dip at Hunters Springs. Snorkel or dive the main spring in Kings Bay. Tie up at Crackers or The Waterfront Social for lunch, dinner or just a cocktail on the water!

If weather keeps you indoors, we have puzzles, games and books. 5 TV's with Premium Cable package means no fighting over the remote! The screened porch is roofed so you can still be outside if you want to watch and hear the rain. Nice day but just feeling lazy? Jump in the hammock and relax! Not lazy? Hop in one of our 4 kayaks and explore nature up close and personal! Fish or catch crabs off our dock. We are sure that you will be delighted with all that this house has to offer!

If you are staying with us during Hurricane Season (May-Nov) please purchase Travel Insurance. We are in flood zone A and will be the 1st on the list for Mandatory Evacuation. You will HAVE TO LEAVE and the insurance will cover the missed days of your stay.

Stay & play a little longer for just $100! If no new guests are checking in on your day out, we can change your check-out time from 10AM to 6PM. You can get in an extra fishing trip, swim with the manatees or just sleep in & do a late lunch! Or we can do it the other way around to get you early check-in, 10AM instead of 4PM. You can request this option when booking & if it is available, we will block the time for you.

Wonderful Peaceful Home

We were at this property for an extended amount of time and loved every minute of it !The home is very well equipped with all that you need! The neighborhood was peaceful. The home is very convenient to many restaurants and activities. We loved the boat dock and convenient to access Crystal River in a short time. The owner is very friendly, attentive and fast to respond to any questions or concerns. We will be going back if all goes well !

Our family usually vacations in the outer banks and recently Hilton Head Island. For reasons I won't bore you with this year we were not able to do this. Years ago I saw a fishing special on ESPN that took place in Crystal River and have wanted to visit there ever since. This area is spectacular! Lots to do and see and if you don't want to do anything at all you can just sit in the shade of a tremendous "oak?" that covers the whole back deck and floating dock and just relax

Week One of June 2024

My wife and I stayed and was truly impressed with the quiet location. We enjoyed the extra care it takes to make someone's stay pleasant. The boat docking and location to Crystal River is great. It's a short ride to the springs, dinning and the gulf. We highly recommend this place for a pleasant and peaceful stay. Thank you, Doug & Carmella

Great House in Crystal River

This is a great place to stay in Crystal River especially if you are bringing a boat. It is located on a deep water canal just off the river. There is a floating dock, water hose, fish cleaning station and power. I have a 23ft Sea Hunt, but the dock would accommodate a much larger boat. There is plenty of space to park your trailer across the street. The house was clean and furnished with everything we needed. The owner was very easy to work with. I would definitely stay here again!

Another year another great experience!

This was our 7th year coming here to have a guys week and as always was outstanding! With golfing, fishing and food all close by we never wanted for anything. The house was very clean and check in was a breeze. The owners were very easy to talk to and answered back quickly for any questions we had. With the addition of the 4th bedroom there is more than enough room for large families and friends to enjoy this jewel on the water. We look forward to returning next year again and making it 8 years of peace and quiet at Crystal River!

Quiet, Peaceful Stay

This was our third visit to this house. We love this area specifically because it is quiet. There is a lovely lanai where we can eat outside, a big tree that keeps the patio in shade in the afternoon and Crystal River itself has great places to eat and recreate.

We enjoyed our stay at your property very much. It was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. Every time we had a question you were quick to respond. It was close to the restaurants , to Fishing, and the Manatees refuge. We would definitely use your property again and highly recommend you. Also recommend Teddy Shupe as a fishing guide. You will definitely catch a fish with him. He knows where to go and is very personable. He will even bait your hook and cast if you want. Thanks so much!!!

Comfortable, super clean, has EVERYTHING

We had a great 5 day/4 night stay. Everything was very clean and tidy, and the hosts had every amenity you could need: toilets, fluffy towels, extra pillows, fans, games, kayaks, nice neighbors, everything. It's like staying in a cabin when you've collected all the creature comforts...but your only responsibility is to show up. Hosts communicated promptly and were friendly. It's also impressive quiet! Would definitely stay again, and highly recommend it to others.

This place was very clean and the location was amazing! Quiet neighborhood, just right around the corner to the river via the canal....PERFECT location, the house was probably the best stocked house in my rental history with extra added touches of things that most do not have. Very much one of our best stays & we do alot of VRBO etc. Owner was very attentive and communicative - we will definitely be back if available!

Wealthy is the best host. All communication was quick and with humor. Wealthy, you really need to add pictures of the new deck and floating dock. The deck and screened porch is where we spent 90% of our time. The deck is beautiful. We loved docking the boat and walking into the house. We fished from the dock. Caught more catfish and sting rays than we could imagine. The house smelled and was clean. Great family trip.
