Come and enjoy our Nature Coast Getaway located on a fresh water canal with direct access to the Gulf of Mexico. Bring your boat and utilize our 10,000 lb. boat lift for easy access to daily boating, fishing, snorkeling, diving, and manatee encounters. Kayak from the backyard through the Indian River to Crystal River and enjoy nature. Our home is within biking distance to the Crystal River State Archaeological Site with museum and Indian Burial Grounds. If bird watching is of interest, many local parks (Withlacoochee State Forest, Fort Cooper State Park, St. Martin's Marsh Aquatic Preserve, Cross Florida Greenway to name a few) are available for your bird sighting adventure. Also within 20 minutes of Dunnellon/Rainbow River which is part of the Great Florida Birding Trail. The Rainbow River offers tubing down a pristine spring-fed river where 450 million gallons of fresh water flows daily. Citrus County boasts many public and private golf courses and nationally rated World Woods is a 30-minute drive away. Silver Springs, home to the famous glass bottom boats, is within an hour's drive and the Ocala National Forest a few minutes further.
Our getaway is a comfortable 1700 square feet of living area with lanai and two-car garage that easily sleeps six. A 15' x 25' Florida room with a window seat offers a sofa bed for two additional people or a gathering place at day's end. And you can't beat your morning coffee and paper at the seawall deck/dock with a view of the canal and possible manatee and dolphin sightings. We have seen both!
Come and experience Florida's Nature Coast - you will be glad you did!
