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 from the public boat ramp across the street, it’s only a short ride to the canal where you’ll find the dock and 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. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Heated pool - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet -

I can't think of a single thing that we could possibly have needed that wasn't there. We highly recommend Natures Discovery for Snorkeling with Manatees. The Buiscuit barn is a short bike ride away and the go-to breakfast spot you don't need to try another. For a fun afternoon or morning for 13 or less per person, try the Homosassa Spring State Park. It's a mini zoo with manatees, feedings, and education only about 16 miles from the house. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! ##### Ken R.

The property was perfect for our needs, offering three spacious bedrooms and two clean bathrooms. One highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the pool, which provided hours of fun and relaxation for the family when the weather was less than ideal. The location is perfect, with the canal right at our doorstep. We enjoyed going out on our boat to explore King's Bay. The outdoor space was well-furnished and ideal for relaxing with the family. Inside, the house was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with most of the things we needed for our stay. The kitchen had all the essentials for preparing meals, and the living areas were cozy and welcoming. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, providing us with all the information we needed for a smooth check-in and a pleasant stay. Overall, this home exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in a beautiful setting. We can't wait to come back next year! ##### Laurie Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike M. 5 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The Turtle House The Turtle House was a fantastic place to spend a week in Crystal River. The location was great. A couple minutes to everything in Crystal River and a 10-15 minute drive to Homosassa. The house itself had all of the amenities we needed. Was nicely decorated as well. We used the pool but it was a cooler week and the water was chilly but well taken care of. We will definitely stay here again if we are able to get back down there to snorkel with manatee again. The owner was quick to respond to any questions we had for them. Thanks for a great trip. ##### Mike M.
