Waterfront freshwater paradise! Swim with manatees in our backyard!

Manatee swimming, fishing, scalloping, relaxing....no better place to come and enjoy all Citrus County has to offer! Palm Springs is a family owned home and it is our only home we rent out. Communication with us is easy and personalized. Just check out our many reviews! Our guests have been returning again and again for over 20 years. We have been hosting guests and providing a wonderful way to explore all Crystal River has to offer since 2001.

Dock your boat on our seawall with your own personal mooring whips. Swim in the backyard canal with manatees! Almost every guest experiences a manatee, or several, swimming right behind our home. Paddle just 10 minutes to Kings Spring or 25 minutes to Three Sisters Spring with your own private kayaks and paddle board we offer at no additional charge. Bike around downtown and do a little shopping on your own set of bicycles we also offer at no additional charge. We are situated nearly right on Kings Bay, just 1 house in on a freshwater canal.

Experience Florida's Nature Coast in our brand new remodeled interior from floor to ceiling. Our relaxing vacation home is featured on an over-sized corner lot that is approximately 3/4 acre. The lot is full of shade trees. Our home is a spacious two bedroom, two bath space with an additional Queen sleeper sofa. It comfortably accommodates 6 people. Aside from the open tiled kitchen/living/dining area, we have a sunroom offering sweeping views of the freshwater canal, a screened in patio, and a screened lanai with your own private use pool. We offer streaming YouTube TV, smart tv's available to accommodate all of your favorite streaming apps, wireless internet, and dvd players for your use.

Our visitors enjoy the tranquility that our home offers. It is very common to see manatees slowly making their way through our canal along with an occasional dolphin or otter sighting!! There are several species of birds that come to feed in our yard that can be viewed through our sunroom and back screened patio. This home is located near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in a residential neighborhood.

We have plenty of room to park your vehicles and boat trailers in the long driveway or in the yard. There is also a covered carport for your vehicle.

We do offer 3 single seater kayaks and a paddleboard here at the home at no additional cost to you, along with paddles and life jackets. We also provide 2 beach cruiser bicycles at no additional cost.

The home comes completely stocked with kitchen utensils, cookware, bed linens, towels and washcloths, and cleaning materials. There is a full washer/dryer here for your use and we keep you stocked with laundry detergent. All you need to bring are your personal toiletries and food!!

There is a county boat ramp with rest rooms and picnic area about 4 miles down Fort Island Trail n.Fort Island Gulf Beach is 6 miles away on Ft. Island trail.

The area is perfect for swimming with the manatees and swimming in nearby springs. 3 Sisters and King Spring are within paddling distance all in a no wake or slow speed zone, so no need to worry about high speed boats on the way.
