Relax and unwind in this unique waterfront property!
**NO Children under 12 y.o. or pets**Picture yourself on a semi-private deck, sipping a cold drink as the sun dips below the horizon and the water gently ripples below—pure serenity. This one-of-a-kind stilt home is a 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath loft tucked within a quiet, charming community of just 15 duplex units.
Inside, you’ll find a cozy loft with a luxurious king bed, plus a pull-out couch on the main floor for additional sleeping space. Step out onto the back deck for peaceful canal views and easy access to the boat dock. A nearby tributary flows into the Salt River and Crystal River, only 2 miles from both the Gulf of Mexico and the natural springs.
Cool off with a dip in the pool just steps away, or enjoy a leisurely walk along the boardwalk that winds through the property, offering a unique nature experience right outside your door. Prefer the beach? A five-minute drive takes you to the public beach, and a public boat ramp is only a mile away.
The home includes convenient amenities like in-unit laundry and a fully stocked kitchen with cookware and small appliances, making it perfect for short getaways or longer stays. Nightly rentals are available (4-night minimum, or 2-night minimum during off-season), as well as weekly or monthly options.
Bringing a boat? Guests are welcome to use the dock and trailer parking on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note: boats must be 22 feet or shorter (including the engine), and must be secured with a rope for the dock and an anchor for the rear—no power poles permitted. Be sure to contact the host for boat-related arrangements.
For the comfort of all guests, smoking is not permitted inside the unit. Please note this property is not suitable for children under 12 and does not allow pets. Maximum occupancy is limited to 4 guests.
Experience a peaceful stay in our tranquil community, surrounded by natural beauty and warm hospitality.
Important Notice: A live-feed camera is installed on the shared deck between this unit and the adjacent one, used only to monitor the owner’s boat. The camera does not record and has no microphone.
Pack your bags—your perfect waterside retreat awaits!
