Fascinating history abounds in Citrus County. The Old Courthouse Heritage Museum, built in 1912, houses the county’s historical society. The Coastal Heritage Museum is packed with ancient photographs and even an old jail cell. And although you'd expect more juice bars than wineries here, there are several lush spots to sample a new red, including local favorites Copp Winery and Whispering Oaks Winery. If you’re an art fiend, you’ll find galleries galore in Old Homosassa and Floral City. As if you need an excuse to get a little crazy with the kids, Puddle in the Pines Splash Park stays open from spring through fall.
Oh, the places you will see in Citrus County! Go camping in Withlacoochee State Forest or explore the ruins of Dames Cave. Stroll the Citrus Avenue shops in Crystal River to stash your suitcase with quirky souvenirs and one-of-a-kind finds. If you’ve booked a Citrus County vacation rental in winter, you can celebrate the Florida Manatee Festival. More a warm weather sort? The Floral City Strawberry Festival awaits in the spring. With several luxe spas in the area, you can spend some quality time indoors, too.
Did someone say sunshine? It’s abundant here, much like those namesake citrus groves. With hundreds of sun-soaked days on the agenda, spring and summer offer plenty of heat. July tops out at around 90 degrees. Winters are mild and forgiving, with temperatures typically dipping no lower than 45 degrees. (Yes, bring a jacket.) Snow is just something to gossip about when Nor'easters threaten the rest of the coast. Rain is more the story here, so pack your parka and an umbrella if you’re booking that Citrus County vacation rental in the spring.
