The home itself is completely updated, with new floors, kitchen cabinets, a new wrap around porch, and gravel driveway. More pictures with furniture are coming in the next few weeks. This furnished 2 bedroom/2bath home sits on a canal that leads straight to the St. Martins River with easy access to the Gulf plus Homosassa Springs and Crystal River Springs without all the boat traffic of those areas. Great access to snorkeling, fishing, and scalloping. Enjoy the scenery from the porch deck and grill up your catch on the propane grill located on the property. Full Kitchen that is fully stocked with all the pots, pans and dishes you need to truly relax and enjoy the sites of Ozello Keys. There is also a Washer and Dryer located in house for you to use during your stay. \*\*\*SCALLOPING\*\*\* Scallop season in Citrus County is July 1 through September 24. Please visit the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission website to ensure you have all current information and rules for the season. Ozello is a perfect location if you want to get to the scallop grounds quickly. You can expect a 20-30 minute drive to the scallop grounds (depending on motor size), compared to an hour drive from Crystal River and Homosassa. There are several tour guides in the area if you don't have your own boat. \*\*\*BOATING\*\*\*\* If you are considering bringing your boat, please note that Ozello waters are not as deep as Crystal River and Homosassa. Deep V boats are questionable during the summer months and most likely out of the question during the winter low tides. If you are concerned about your boat not being a good fit please reach out. There are also local guides available that will take you out if you do not feel comfortable navigating the waters. map of how to get to St. Martins river via boat or kayak from house https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1EuI8c4gDxhX020fkugyWLUW\_M84k3qpY&usp=sharing \*\*\*FOOD/RESTURANTS\*\*\* Grocery Stores are located about 20 minutes away and you can use Publix Instant Cart to delivery to the location.
