About this property

This is a 3 bedroom 2 bath canal front home which is perfect for a family getaway. It sleeps 10 people at an affordable price with lots of amenities to make you feel more like our house guests than vacation renters!

The house has an open concept kitchen, dining room and sunken living room. The kitchen is fully stocked so plan to make some great meals to eat at the large dining room table, the breakfast nook or poolside. If you prefer to grill, the “grill master” can choose to use the large flat top gas grill or the smaller charcoal grill.

There is a split bedroom arrangement. The master bedroom has a king size bed and sliding glass doors leading to the pool. The second bedroom has a queen size bed and the third has a bunk bed with a full mattress on the bottom and a twin mattress on the top. There is a full mattress under the bed that can be pulled out if needed. The closet is stocked with toys and games so we like to call this the “kids room.”

The private solar heated pool (chilly during winter months) is enclosed by a spacious lanai with ample seating for the whole family to eat, sunbathe, watch the kids swim or read a good book. If the night is a little chilly you can sit by the fire in the separate outdoor patio.

After you launch your boat or jet ski from the public boat ramp across the street it’s only a short ride to the canal where you’ll find the dock with the small boat lift and jet ski floating dock. Fill your beverage & fish coolers with ice from our 250lb ice machine and you're on your way. Please note that the canal can get shallow during low tide but I was able to easily maneuver my 27’ boat to the deeper water.

Restaurants, shopping and the historical town are just a few minutes away. Crystal clear springs, nature trails and parks are close by for the outdoor lovers.

This is where you want to stay in the summertime for some great scalloping, the winter time to see the manatees and to escape the cold if you’re snowbirds and all year long for some phenomenal fishing!

Please contact me for long term rental and discount pricing depending on length of stay.

Great place for the entire family

We had not had a family vacation in a couple of years and this was such a relaxing spot. The pool was awesome, the canal behind is pretty and a great spot to watch turtles play, the house is well stocked, and is in great proximity to everything. The neighborhood was really quiet. The ice maker in the garage is a really nice added detail. We found the beds to be comfortable and the master bathroom is fantastic with a huge shower. Lots of beach towels are provided for the pool. This was the most equipped rental I have stayed in in a number of years. I had brought my own restock items of trash bags, toilet paper, etc but really didn’t need them. Basic spices and coffee filters are in the kitchen. They even had shampoo and body wash if you forgot your own. We had most of our own stuff with us, but the owners obviously have taken great care to ensure their renters have a comfortable stay. I would definitely stay again and reccomend to friends. There are even books and toys. Tips: go to Homosassa to see the manatees. The boat tour is affordable and you see so many animals. It is a much better deal than Three Sisters. Bubbaques has a delicious salad bar and Hunter Springs is a great place to snorkel. All of the above is a short drive from this property.

Great House with Manatee

We visited Crystal River in late March and were ready to see some manatee and relax. This house did not disappoint. Each day we saw one or two in the cancel behind the house and decided to go out several times in the kayak and into other cancels but never saw any. Then the last day, at high tide there were 5 adults and one baby in the cancel and we were able to watch them for almost an hour. It was great. The house is very nice and would definetly return for scallop season

Everything we needed!!

The home is in a great location just off the main highway making it super fast and easy to go anywhere. All rooms were comfortable.master bed 6/10 soft, guest bed 5/10 soft. Tons of extras provided like shampoo and laundry detergent that I’m used to bringing for myself. The outdoor and pool area was really nice though we didn’t use it (the noseeums were vicious!). Could use a deep cleaning but otherwise a great stay!! Highly recommend!

Everything You Need For A Vacation

The house was exactly as depicted. We have rented many house through VRBO and this was the best supplied of any. David, the homeowner was very accessible and accommodating. It was a quiet neighborhood and very close to the features of Crystal River. I give it my highest recommendation.

About the host

Hosted by David Schleissing

We grew up in Florida and currently live in High Springs which is a little over an hour from Crystal River. We’ve made many visits to Crystal River and fell in love with the area. It’s been the perfect place for a getaway to do some of our favorite things. We’ve had great times boating, scalloping, fishing, snorkeling, swimming and spending quality time with our family. Owning a house on the water was on our “bucket list” so we’re excited that we’ve been able to buy the Turtle House and can share our love of the area with others.

Why they chose this property

Crystal River has the laid back unhurried ambiance that we enjoy and we already knew we wanted to purchase a house there. The Turtle House has all the amenities we were looking for and we’re enthusiastic and excited about this new chapter in our lives.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! The house is just a few blocks off of US 19 in a small quiet neighborhood with great neighbors, the public boat ramp is across the street, the water just off the dock is a great place to kayak/ paddle board, and there’s direct gulf access via a short beautiful boat ride.
