WATERFRONT • Beautiful Inside and Out! Kayaker’s Paradise • Fishing • Manatees
Come stay in this beautifully decorated, freshly remodeled home featuring a spacious and relaxing open floor plan with all new furniture throughout the house.
Kayaks included! You can enjoy nature, fish and kayak right from the backyard.
Scenic and Relaxing, Halls River Retreat is located in the coveted north end of Homosassa Springs, only minutes from the centers of Crystal River, Homosassa Springs and Old Homosassa.
The Retreat is located on the Halls River, part of the Homosassa River, a pristine spring fed river where manatee come to give birth and relax away from the hustle and bustle of boat traffic on the main part of the river. It is a kayaker’s paradise.
The Halls and Homosassa Rivers offer year round world class fishing opportunities - and are home to an abundance of wildlife in the water, on shore and in the air!
AMENITIES and SPECIAL FEATURES
Kayaks for Guest Use. Single and tandem
Explore the unspoiled shores of the Halls River and the Homosassa River
Incredible Fishing and a Nature Lover’s Paradise
SWIM WITH THE MANATEE - Watch, get up-close, and swim with the Gentle Giants of Homosassa. Did you know that the waters of Citrus County (Homosassa and Crystal River) are the only place in the United States where you can legally swim with the manatee in the wild?
Kayak alongside Emu Island Florida and enjoy the antics of a mob of rare blue-eyed white and blonde emus
Screened room and a large outdoor deck overlook a spring fed canal where you can relax, fish and enjoy nature
BBQ grill in screened porch
Outdoor fire pit (we do not supply firewood)
Wi-Fi to keep you connected during your stay
Large fenced-in back yard
This waterfront home is only minutes from shopping, the world famous Three Sisters Springs, Homosassa Springs State Wildlife Park and Crystal River. It is only an hour’s drive to some of Florida’s best theme parks, zoo, museums and attractions!
A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS. All of the nature photos on this page were taken either in the backyard or within a very short paddle from the Retreat.
Amazing, breathtaking, and captivating moments and memories await you at Halls River Retreat in Homosassa Springs Florida.
Prior to and throughout your stay, we are just a text or phone call away.
Your host,
Joanne
