Hunter Springs is a great little park with a beach area for swimming and kayak rentals too.
There are also several Diving with the Manatee tours available. One we suggest in town is Fun2Dive. These are all only a short drive away.
You can enjoy swimming, fishing, scalloping, snorkeling, kayaking, pontooning just five minutes away, or just relaxing back at camp fireside.
Heritage Village is in town filled with many hometown eateries and shoppes. It's a great way to spend the afternoon and explore downtown Crystal River.
We have a variety of great one-of-a-kind eateries with many special events and festivals throughout the year.
Conveniently located at the end of the street is a Publix, DG, a Mexican restaurant, and Beef O'Brady's.
We also have brochures on all kinds of other great places you'll want to experience while staying in beautiful Crystal River!
Oh, and don't forget to stop by Grandma's gift shop before you leave.
We look forward to your stay!

Fun, secluded spot, we were the only campers there. If it wasn’t so cold, we would have loved to have hung out and enjoyed all the games Tyler had! The short walk to the Salt Ponds was easy and enjoyable.

We had an amazing weekend at this Hipcamp. Kate was the absolute best—super communicative and helpful from start to finish. The site was exactly as expected: private, jungle-like, and a great place to unwind. We had fun exploring the property and finding Pepper Trail, which was a nice bonus.
The highlight of the trip was kayaking with the manatees—an unforgettable experience.
One note for RVers: if your rig (or Travel Trailer) is longer than 25 feet, you may need to back in from the road. Our truck couldn’t quite make the turn, but backing in was easy and not an issue at all.
Overall, a fantastic stay. We’d absolutely come back again.

I will never forget the wonderful week I spent at this campsite. It was so peaceful and private. The stars at night were amazing. I loved the trails where I could walk my dog and visit with the resident animals. Arcadio was a kind and helpful host with a lovely family. Having electricity made it possible to plug in a heated blanket on cold nights and recharge my phone. The nearby town of Dunnellon had groceries, supplies, restaurants, parks, and a beautiful river. It was friendly and felt very safe for a woman in her 70s traveling alone with a small dog. I can’t wait to come back!

Tyler’s land was amazing! Beautiful views, peace and quiet, wonderful amenities, close enough to everything we wanted to do without being in the middle of town & a 5 star host! Our 1st 2 days there were other campers on the property but there was still plenty of room to feel like there was a semblance of privacy (this is our main reason we love HipCamp- to avoid the “campground” feel. Not once did we feel like we were in their space or they ours) I was able to set up my Starlink and get a great signal for work days. The outdoor bathroom and shower were amazing touches! It was so peaceful to sit around a campfire down by the river and listen to the fish jump while we enjoyed the starry sky! Several days my husband enjoyed canoeing around while I worked.

The description of the place is completely exaggerated. It’s the parking area of a house, the worst place I’ve ever camped, with a main road right in front. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. It’s nothing like the photos

The hosts created a peaceful HipCamp experience. The site was level and fairly secluded. We had access to the dock where I was able to have my morning coffee and just chill. The site is just minutes away from the State Park with Manatee viewings and a nice walking trail. There are also several bike trails all within 30 minutes (would recommend the Withlacoochee Trail just north of Crystal Springs - paved with areas to stop and picnic).

Stayed one night and everything was perfect. Easy to find and good locaton. We walked in the evening to the marina and ate at the Monkey bar overlooking monkey island which we really enjoyed. The next morning we had an airboar ride with River Safaris which is next door and saw Dolphins and other wildlife. We had a great stay at Charles place and Homosassa. Would highly recommend.

5 nights at Paradise Lake Rousseau ,Fl
Our recent trip from Central California to visit family was made perfect by our decision to stay on Lake Rousseau. With our relatives living just two blocks from David's land, the location was ideal and convenient for spending quality time together. David and his entire staff exceeded our expectations in every way. Their deep knowledge of Lake Rousseau, combined with remarkable generosity and hospitality, made us feel exceptionally welcome and well cared for throughout our stay. We stayed in a quaint cabin that featured a convenient kitchenette. The space was not only comfortable and clean but also provided us with everything we needed for a relaxing visit. Each morning, we woke up to breathtaking views, which truly enhanced our experience. Our time at David's camp was unforgettable. We look forward to returning and will always choose to stay here whenever we visit. The combination of a beautiful setting, excellent accommodations, and outstanding hospitality makes David's camp our preferred destination.
