About this property

Private Dock and Gulf water access Ozello 3/2 Home with amazing sunrises!

  • Awaken to fantastic sunrises in this newly remodeled 3 bedroom 2 bath home with dock and water access in Ozello (near Crystal River and Homossassa, FL)! This home has direct access to the Gulf of Mexico where fishing and scalloping are certainly amazing. Easy walk to lunch/dinner at Peck's Old Port Cove restaurant and close to Island Outpost Grill and Bar for amazing breakfast/lunch/dinner. This home has fully remodeled kitchen with new cabinets and countertops. Includes Keurig coffee and built in microwave and ice maker. Fully supplied with pots and pans and utensils, service for 8 provided.

    Dining table and stools provide service for 8. Living room includes two sofas ( one has 2 recliners) and additional full sofa. There is also a recliner surrounding the wood burning fireplace and 50 inch internet TV. The living area is directly adjacent to the screened in porch. The porch has screens underneath to prevent bugs and no-see-ums and has 2 fans. Outside the porch has a back set of stairs that leads to the fire pit and grill/smoker downstairs. The outside area has a table and seating for 4 and 4 Adirondack chairs by fire pit. This home has direct access to fishing and scalloping with a dock and fish cleaning table directly out the back door! The dock has mooring whips to secure your personal flats water boat and keep it ready to fish. (A shallow water boat is recommended for this area of fishing.) The rental includes use of 2 kayaks with life preservers and paddles, additional kayaks available upon request. There is a full size washer and dryer downstairs also for use. No detergent is provided.

    The bedrooms include a master suite queen bed with adjacent bathroom and stand-up shower. This bedroom has 2 walls of windows for the most amazing sunrises and best views of the water. Bedroom #2 is a king bedroom with memory foam bed that opens to the porch that leads to the screened in patio. This bedroom has a flat screen TV. Bedroom #3 is another queen size bed. Bedrooms #2 and #3 share another full walk-in shower bathroom just outside the door.

    The best parts of this home are the outdoor living areas with the fire pit where the firewood is included and the availability to launch your own flat’s boat and keep it moored on the private dock. The community is a quaint, quiet area to walk and exercise and just minutes to the public boat ramp that is 1/2 mile away on the same street.

This was a GREAT little place right outside of Crystal River. The host was very nice and helpful. The house was super clean and had everything that the 5 of us needed. Loved hanging out on the screened-in porch at night and looking up at all the stars! Lovely water views. We didn't have a boat but I can see how great it would be for people that did bring a boat. We really enjoyed Pecks Old Port Cove for dinner one evening. Amazing service and very good food and drinks!And I highly recommend River Ventures for their Manatee tour. Five stars all the way for this trip!

Great stay near Homassaso Spr

We had a lovely time at this VRB property. It is located right on the water with a dock and kayaks. My daughters enjoyed the kayaks and my grandchildren enjoyed playing in the large yard. One of the highlights was sitting around the fire pit, making S'Mores. The house was spotless and there was everything you need for a nice stay. I highly recommend this home.

Waterman’s dream stay

This place is super comfortable and well taken care of inside and out. The neighbors are very friendly and we’re super helpful. Our stay wasn’t long but I would come back with a shallow boat and stay for a week if I could, fishing the mangroves and exploring the area. My wife loved the sun room it was such a cool experience looking out over the mangroves in the morning and at night.

Relaxing waterfront getaway

The property was exactly as described. Great waterfront location in a quiet neighborhood. The home was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. Kitchen was well-stocked, beds were comfortable, and the screened patio was perfect for enjoying the views. We made use of the fire pit and kayaks and had a memorable weekend away. Thanks!

We had an amazing stay at the Ozello Lighthouse. We really appreciated the fact we could get an extra kayak so that all of us could enjoy the water. It was a great location to explore Crystal River and Homosassa and the drive to and from the house is stunning.The house was clean, had plenty of room for all of us and the screened in porch was perfect. We enjoyed our meals while overlooking the water.Bonus we were able to have our groceries delivered so no wasting time shopping! The kitchen is pretty well stocked with what you will need to cook up a meal. The only thing I would suggest is be sure to bring some toilet paper and some dish soap. Start ups were provided and we use vacation homes a lot so we were prepared.Thanks for everything we will be back!

Perfect Fit

A few friends and my self enter a fly fishing tournament annually that we enjoy in Ozello, this will now be our returning VRBO! The Host Shondra had us all set up with under home storage, a small boat launch perfect for our skiffs many restful spaces both indoors and outdoors to wind down after battling low tide conditions in the estuary. We stopped for drinks at Pecks Thursday night and dinner at the Island Outpost. Both restaurants were “our speed” with the atmosphere and food along with a welcoming staff at both locations. The neighbor on the left of the property is a Captain with many stories and “time on the water” experience to help with navigation as well as patterns to dissect the fishery. The neighbor on the right offered many pastime stories of historical natural disasters that the area had experienced to remind you that is Old Florida. Both parties made this a more than hospitable stay for my friends and I. Thank you again, Shondra.
