Welcome to the scallop shack! Newly renovated and on the water in Crystal River!

Welcome to the scallop shack! Fully renovated!
This home features a beautiful view of Indian Lake, and a beautiful deep canal, connecting it directly to Crystal River with a 15 to 20 minute boat ride. From the boat dock, you can see Manatees play and catch incredible fish. One two person and two smaller one person kayaks are included in the rental. There is a private boat dock on the other side of the lake that is inexpensive and easy to launch from. Within walking distance of the house is a friendly liquor store and the biscuit barn — best breakfast anywhere!!!
If you turn left out of the canal, you will be in Kings Bay, the canals are very well marked so you can go out for dinner at the wonderful waterfront restaurants and have no trouble finding your way home. If you turn right out of the canal you had to the grass flats where scallops abound!!
Relax around the fire pit in comfortable chairs at night. Enjoy the warm breezes in the screened in Lanai. There are three cozy bedrooms with televisions in each one. The master features, a king bed and en suite bathroom. There is a very private queen bedroom in the back corner of the house, and the middle bedroom has a trundle bed with two twins. All of the bedrooms have nice closet space, and bright windows. The master bathroom has a shower and the hallway bathroom has a shower with a tub. In the living room there is a double Murphy bed. The house sleeps 8 comfortably.
Sometimes we have rainy days, and there is a dining table that converts to a pool table for a little indoor entertainment😊
