Indian Waters House | Fun for all Hu-manatee!

3 Bedroom House with Pool, TV and Fireplace

Our home has 3 bedrooms (two with King sized beds, the other with a full and set of bunk beds), 2 bathrooms, a Family Room (with sleeper sofa), a Living room, a formal dining room, a laundry room, two stall garage, TWO driveways, a lanai, a 12 x 16 pool (POOL IS NOT HEATED), and an 8x20 dock on the canal in the rear. All linens & towels are included. A full kitchen with pots, pans, plates, utensils, crock pot, etc. is available for use as well. Pool toys and towels are provided. A port-a-crib, portable highchair, and toys for the young ones can be found in our home. Games, books, and DVDs are available for use. We try to provide everything you need to get comfortable and started with your stay. Of course, you’ll probably need to hit the store for more supplies for meals and to support larger groups or longer stays.
The house is within walking or paddling distance to the Crystal River Archaeological State Park and the Crystal River Preserve State Park.
We are continually trying to make our home more convenient, comfortable and enjoyable for our guests by upgrading and improving things!
Some recent upgrades to our home:
• In May of 2024 we have installed:
o A new roof for your safety and protection in May of 2024
o New mulch and landscaping
o A tandem kayak
o New towels, linens, and kitchen cooking support items
• Master Bedroom Shower renovated in 2022
• Recent installation of a rear driveway/parking pad for boat trailers and additional vehicles
• Recently renovated flooring in living room, dining room, and all three bedrooms
• Pool refinished in 2021
One of our most frequent questions is “Is your pool heated?”. Unfortunately, our pool is NOT heated, and this might make the water a bit uncomfortable for our guests staying in October through March.
We do allow pets but ask that you communicate beforehand for approval, don’t allow them on the furniture or in the pool, and please, no more than two pets per stay.
From our dock in the back yard, it is just a short boat ride (have to pass under one bridge with a 14 ft clearance) to the Kings Bay, the Salt River, Gulf (approx. 45 mins travel time), and the scallop beds where you can go fishing, swimming with the manatees, and scallop hunting. The closest boat ramp is ~3/4 mile down the road ($15/launch fee) behind the Days Inn. The length of your trip by boat is short in mileage but extended in time because of the many ‘No wake zones’ in place to protect Florida wildlife but the trip to the main river is very scenic and reminiscent of a ‘jungle cruise’.
We offer tandem and single kayaks and a stand-up paddle board (SUP) for use. We have multiple life jackets in a variety of sizes for your safety and compliance. Please note that if you use the kayaks & SUP from the dock that it is a FULL day’s journey to the Springs/Bay area where most of the manatees are seen. If it is your desire to kayak or SUP near the Three Sister’s or King’s Bay, we would suggest loading the kayaks or SUP into your truck and going to Hunter Spring’s Park. Please note that there is a small parking fee and launch fee. Otherwise, there is plenty of beautiful scenery and enjoyment to be had just kayaking around the canals and state park lands which are an easy paddle from the house.
For your awareness and consideration, we have security cameras around the exterior of the house (one facing the dock, one looking down the canal, one facing each driveway, one facing the side road, and one in the garage) to help us to monitor our property when it is not rented.
Please note that this is Florida, and you are in a waterfront and relatively rural setting. There are times of the year and periods during each day where no-see-ums and other insects may seem intolerable. Please be assured that we have put the best screens possible in our outdoor areas but some of these insects are able to penetrate those areas with relative ease. Please protect yourself appropriately!
We are very responsive to our guests’ comments and needs and try to answer or resolve any encountered issues or questions as quickly as possible. We have a guest information book available as well as a table full of pamphlets and other materials that will help you make the most of your stay in this beautiful area.
