Peaceful Waterfront Ozello Cottage- with free kayaks and crab traps! | House in Crystal River
2 Bedroom House in Crystal River
Live "Island Style" in our rural updated 2 BR/1 BA cozy stilt waterfront home on a huge corner lot at the end of a private road. Launch your kayak just out the back door and be out on the St. Martins or Salt River in minutes where you can often see dolphins and catch redfish, snook, seatrout and blue crabs. Clean them at your fish cleaning station. Harvest scallops in the nearby Gulf waters. Kayaks and crab traps are available for your use.
Watch the sun rise over the water to the east, enjoy the screened porch for watching birds on the marsh, and finish your day by watching the glorious sunset over the water to the west. If you’re lucky, you may see manatees or dolphins in front of the house. Birdwatching here is excellent. Serene, peaceful, and full of wildlife, you’ll find our house and this area to be the perfect place to relax and enjoy the natural world around you.
High speed Wi-fi is provided, along with streaming tv options via Roku. Our compact kitchen is well equipped, and there is also a gas grill available. We have a regular drip coffee maker as well as a Keurig for your use- so bring your favorite coffee or enjoy the supplied coffee. Grab your cup and watch the marsh wake up from your screened-in porch. We will have all of the basics you need for a comfortable homey stay. Spices and other essentials are supplied should you want to cook and dine at home.
Extra touches like memory foam mattresses make it feel like home. Our comfortable home is ideally suited for 2 guests, but can sleep a maximum of 4 people. This romantic location is ideal for a couple, but can fit up to four if you really like each other. :)
Our neighborhood is very quiet and safe, as we are at the end of a short private road used only by neighborhood residents.
We are within walking distance to John Brown Park, a large public boat landing for small boats. We have a small boat house for your small skiff/jon boat. NO v-hull boats or boats longer 16' can be accepted on the property. A marina for larger boats is approx. a mile away where our guests can launch and store boats for a very reasonable charge.
We have several different kayaks for your use- two sit-on-top kayaks, a tandem kayak, an older sea kayak (it moves well through the water!), and two traditional sit-in 12-13’ kayaks great for our waters here, or the local springs. We provide our personal kayaks and gear to our guests, and there should always be several available to you. We also provide crab traps for your use, along with tips on catching, cleaning, and cooking them if desired!
Ozello is a small community of friendly people, about a 10-15 minute drive from Crystal River. Three restaurants are within just a few miles of our house. If you enjoy "Old Florida" living, you will enjoy your stay in Ozello.
