Welcome to Halls River Retreat - your private waterfront oasis in coveted northwest Homosassa, just minutes from Crystal River.
Step inside this freshly remodeled, professionally and comfortably decorated home featuring a bright, open floor plan and brand-new furniture throughout. Out back, your private adventure awaits: launch the included kayaks straight from the yard, cast a line into world-class fishing waters, or simply unwind on the deck and watch Florida's wildlife pass by.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT HERE
- Prime, Peaceful Location: Situated on the tranquil north end of Homosassa Springs, you are tucked away from heavy boat traffic yet only minutes from Crystal River, Old Homosassa, Three Sisters Springs, and Homosassa Springs State Wildlife Park.
- A True Kayaker's Paradise: Paddle straight from your backyard onto the pristine, spring-fed Halls River (a quiet tributary of the Homosassa River) where manatees come to rest, nurture their calves, and escape the crowds.
- Swim With the Gentle Giants: Citrus County is the only place in the United States where you can legally swim with wild manatees - and you can watch them glide right past your own backyard.
- Unforgettable Wildlife & Emu Island: Keep your camera ready for abundant birds, fish, and coastal wildlife, or paddle alongside Emu Island to spot a rare mob of blue-eyed white and blonde emus.
- Year-Round World-Class Fishing: Cast a line directly from the property or explore the connected Halls and Homosassa Rivers for incredible inshore fishing in every season.
AMENITIES & OUTDOOR LIVING
- Complimentary Kayaks: Single and tandem kayaks included for guest use.
- Waterfront Deck & Screened Lanai: Overlook a serene, spring-fed canal while dining, fishing, or enjoying your morning coffee.
- Outdoor Entertainment: Fire up the BBQ grill on the screened porch or gather around the outdoor fire pit under the stars (firewood not supplied).
- Spacious, Fenced Backyard: Plenty of room to relax, spread out, and enjoy the outdoors in privacy.
- Modern Comforts: High-speed Wi-Fi and brand-new furnishings throughout the open-concept living area.
