CHECK-IN is from 2:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. No exceptions for late check-in unless previous arrangements made with owners. Welcome to the Scramble On Inn! An "Old Florida" vibe in Florida's Manatee Capitol of Crystal River. The property is private, yet just minutes from stores, restaurants and the water. The cabin is located on private property with owners and security on site, yet plenty of privacy. Your cabin is fully supplied with bedding, towels, refrigerator, coffee pot, cups and silverware, AC in the summer months, and an electric fireplace in the winter. Outside you will find a firepit as well as a charcoal grill, a table for eating, and a swing from the tree. Join us on the weekends for the Yellow Cottage Farmstand & Bakery! We have lots of homemade goodies like jams, honey, herbs, cookies, plants and more! See us on FB under Yellow Cottage Herbs 🪴 The outside shower house is on the primitive side and made for the adventure type. It is equipped with a portable toilet and shower under the stars. It is hooked up with instant hot water. During the day, paddle your way to the beautiful Three Sisters Springs for a swim. You may see some manatee or dolphins on your way there. 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!Welcome to the Scramble On Inn! An "Old Florida" vibe in Florida's Manatee Capitol of Crystal River.

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    This charming campsite near Crystal River offers a cozy escape with its well-equipped cabins, complete privacy, and proximity to local attractions. Guests rave about the warm hospitality of the hosts, Colleen and Eddie, who provide helpful recommendations and extra amenities like an outdoor bistro area. The cabins are clean and spacious, with plenty of blankets and pillows to keep you comfortable. Though close to the owners' home, the site feels secluded, making it a favorite return spot for many visitors.

    Nice little place to lay your head. Definitely not the place for everyone but it got the job done for us. Fire ban really killed the ambiance.
