Crystal River has the best Scalloping grounds in the US. and the best action is usually in 4-6 feet of water around Gomez Rocks at Latitude 2829.8, Longitude 8243.7. Scallop grounds are about 5-10 miles out by boat.

*** We've had issues with big groups in the past, both because the house (and the pool) are built on a residential (i.e., not commercial) scale. So we are a bit tough on groups that have the max guest counts or close to. First and foremost BE HONEST when booking. No more than 4 adults should be in the house, and no more than 6 total guests at one time. We can't accommodate groups that want to rent the house next door/nearby/ or the hotel room down the street, since everyone likes to swim in our pool which overstresses the filter, leads to huge amounts of garbage, and seems to lead to algae blooms.
PLEASE NOTE: Pool heat temperature varies based on weather and outdoor temperature. Owner has no control on cold weather and cannot be held liable for any reason if pool heater cannot get temperature to 84 degrees. Owner will run pool pumps and heater for a maximum of 10 hours per day. If pool pumps or heater setting are changed you will forfeit your full deposit.
PLEASE NOTE WE DO NOT OFFER BICYCLES, paddle boards, kayaks, or canoe. There may be some at the property to use but we can not guarantee the condition. We have asked VRBO to correct this on the website but it still has them listed under amenities.
