We also enjoyed the scrabble board game there :) Bed and sheets were very comfy and clean." - "I was in town for Scalloping. Don's place is roomy, clean, and modern. Comfortable bed, good hot water and water pressure. Everything worked as promised. While you are only about 1 1/2 miles off of Hwy 19, you'll feel like you're 20. Very rural and pleasant.

Looking for a quick get away?
Snowbird? We have just the place for you!
How about a longer term rental for temp workers?
Or maybe you are looking for a bit of nature?
Well you found it! Road bike trails, kayaking, tubing, swimming with manatees, mountain biking (well hills...), just a quiet day at the local springs. They don't call this area the "Nature Coast" for nothing!
Our home is on a very private 2.5 acres with amazing views. Don't be surprised to see a fox trot by, a large owl spying down on you, a bobcat sneaking by or maybe a turkey or two. This is true rural Florida.
The space contains one bedroom, furnished with a queen bed. Living-room has a large sectional sofa and TV. Kitchen is a "kitchenette", small but does what you need it to. Full size fridge and range, microwave, and sink. All you need to enjoy simple meals at home, nice dishes along with basic pots and pans.
If you are visiting friends and family in Citrus Hills, Black Diamond, Beverly Hills, Lecanto or anywhere in the county, we make a great meeting spot. We are centrally located, right in the middle of county.
Many conveniences are close at hand, Walmart is one mile from the house, its a safe 20 minute walk if you chose. Publix is 2.5 miles to the east. Within walking distance is a a mom/pop burger spot; a sushi restaurant that also serves traditional Japanese, Thai, and Chinese; a Wawa, Wendy's and McDonalds; and a small park and multi-use paved bike trail.
The apartment is below our main home. You have a separate entrance and total privacy. That's why its called the "Down Under"!
If you find the dates you are interested in are not open, please check our other rental "Fern Hill Inn" VRBO #2421384. Fern Hill is a 2/2 and about 5 miles from The Down Under.
- "Stayed here multiple times to visit nearby family. As always, clean and comfortable, located in a quiet neighborhood. " - "It was ideal for me, just what I had hoped to find. Having a quiet setting, a screened in porch area and a swing was perfect. The unit was well appointed and the hosts were very helpful." - "I have been here on multiple occasions. Clean, quiet, peaceful. Owners are top notch and very easy to contact. Will be back."

Great community of local life without the crowds and high rises of Florida. An airboat ride was a highlight of our time there. Highly recommend PT Airboat Adventures. Also recommend the shrimp from the Freezer restaurant. Decked out for Christmas. Best part of the place we stayed was waking up in the morning with the big windows in the loft facing east with the beauty of the trees. This was the perfect location for our 3 days in Homosassa."

The washer and dryer are on the other side of the duplex, which we could have used but didn’t need. Communication with the host was great! The unit is close to attractions and restaurants.

The Space:
Professor Rousseau had you in mind when designing your space. He required an electronic lock which makes access available anytime you choose after 4:00 pm. He insisted on comfortable furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen, a coffee bar station, top-notch linens, and on-site laundry facilities to name a few. While Professor Rousseau was away on his most recent adventure, we converted his carport to a fabulous outdoor retreat complete with ample seating for all guests, a quaint fire pit, and a grill. We have provided you with many seating options to include Adirondack chairs surrounding the second wood-burning fire pit, dockside seating, plus your very own private seating area right outside your back door. Bring your boat, canoe, kayak, fishing equipment, binoculars, and camera! The sights and sounds are unlike anything you have experienced by both day and night. All the wildlife here loves Professor Rousseau and you, his special guest!
THE DIFFERENCE
Professor Rousseau has a deep and personal commitment to you as his Guest to provide the highest standard of cleanliness. We will spend several hours between each stay to thoroughly clean and sanitize all surfaces plus wash every item that could have been touched or used by the Guest before you.
Guest Access:
We have plenty of off-street parking for your vehicle, boats, or trailers.
We have a special parking area for boats and trailers. Please let us know if you will be bringing one so we may direct you to the parking area.
The Neighborhood:
Crystal River is best known as one of the few places in the world that vacationers may swim alongside the manatees in person during their winter refuge at Hunter Springs Park and Kings Bay. Hunter Springs Park features a sandy beach for swimmers, a kayak launch, a picnic area, plus a boardwalk for viewing manatees. Kings Bay also has a kayak launch, fishing pier, and three waterfront restaurants serving seafood, often fresh off the boat from the two waterfront fishing operations. Within a few blocks of these two iconic manatee hangouts are several incredible restaurants, cafes, and unique shopping venues on North Citrus Avenue. One of Professor Rousseau’s favorite places to shop and dine is Amy’s.
Another City close by is Dunnellon. For those of you that have decided to launch your boat and travel to the Withlacoochee and Rainbow Rivers, two notable restaurants are the Blue Gator Tiki Bar and Swampy’s. Leave early to grab your boat parking spot during busy seasons!
Check out the menus for these restaurants and more in your Pirates Lair Home Book.
Getting Around:
If your idea of getting around includes a boat, kayak, or canoe, or if you enjoy fishing, you’ll love Professor Rousseau’s. Fish from our dock and utilize our fish cleaning station next to the shore. Launch your aquatic device from our private boat ramp or dock, and you’re on Lake Rousseau, a human-made 3,657-acre lake that offers incredible fishing opportunities. You'll find walleye, pike, smallmouth, and occasionally largemouth bass, year-round.
Safety first! The lake is full of submerged stumps that provide cover for fish. Keep in mind high-speed boating may be dangerous.
In your Pirates Lair book, you will find a map of the boat pathway to the Withlacoochee and Rainbow Rivers which feeds our beautiful lake with water. The Rainbow River begins with a headspring basin that produces between 400-600 million gallons of freshwater per day. This river provides us with a glimpse of rare habitats full of a wide variety of fish, wildlife, plants, and looking-glass clear waters. If you would like access to the Gulf of Mexico several public boat ramps are available including one that is only a few miles away from your front door.

- "If you are taking a boat with you, please be sure to check with management ahead of time as parking space is limited, no signage for fire lane." - "Nice private little quiet place. Very very clean. Decorated super cute. We enjoyed our time very much. We would definitively stay here again."

This location is a quadplex, the neighborhood wasn't quiet, neighbors verbally faught twice while we were there. The walls were very thin, could hear dog barking, someone caughing, conversations. "

- "From the outside could see the apartment front door was badly in need of a paint job and the window blind had some broken slats. Walking inside found the apartment very clean, bug free, and furniture was very acceptable but the apartment toilet, sinks, trim work, etc. need replacing. Not a great paint job on the walls. Don't believe the front door would stand up if someone tried to kick the door in. Put some running water in a glass and found it cloudy and unacceptable looking-so I wasn't going to drink it. I see potential in the property, so maybe improvements will be made."

Don’t wait—dates go fast in this nature-loving haven! Secure your stay now and get ready to enjoy the best of Florida’s Nature Coast.
The Neighborhood:
Located along Florida’s picturesque Gulf Coast, this charming retreat is located in the heart of Old Homosassa, a vibrant area rich in natural beauty and local culture. Visitors will find themselves surrounded by the tranquil atmosphere of a true riverside village. The neighborhood is best known for its proximity to Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park, just five minutes away—a favorite for nature lovers eager to see manatees up close, walk through lush boardwalks, or enjoy wildlife encounters that are uniquely Floridian.
A short drive brings guests to Crystal River, renowned for its spring-fed waters ideal for scalloping, kayaking, and swimming with manatees during migration seasons. Weeki Wachee Springs, famous for its mermaid shows and paddling adventures, is just about 20 minutes away, making for a perfect day trip. Whether you're here for the hunting season, fishing charters, or just a scenic riverside escape, this spot has it all within arm’s reach.
Guests can also enjoy the local flavor with a variety of seafood restaurants, tiki bars, and cozy cafes just minutes away. The area is dotted with family-owned bait shops, antique stores, and rustic galleries, capturing the essence of a small-town Florida lifestyle. Whether you're exploring on foot, by boat, or on an ATV, the Homosassa area offers a genuine taste of adventure and relaxation for every traveler.
Getting Around:
Getting around from this Homosassa location is simple and convenient, whether you’re here to explore or just kick back. Guests with a car will find ample on-site parking, including spots large enough for trucks with trailers, making it ideal for guests bringing boats or off-road vehicles. The property is located just off US-19, a major thoroughfare that connects easily to nearby towns and attractions like Crystal River and Weeki Wachee.
For those who prefer public transportation, Citrus County Transit (Orange Line) offers bus service connecting key points across the region, though it’s recommended to check schedules as routes are limited in this more laid-back, coastal setting. Ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft are readily available and offer reliable transportation to and from local attractions, especially for short hops to the waterfront or dining areas.
Outdoor enthusiasts will love that many key sites are accessible via bike or on foot. Local shops even offer bike and kayak rentals, making it easy to explore the nearby trails, springs, and scenic rivers. Whether you’re planning on paddling down a spring run, heading out for a scalloping trip, or driving to nearby parks, you’ll find transportation to be both flexible and visitor-friendly from this well-situated location.

Summary:
Professor Rousseau invites you to stay in his Sea Turtle Sanctuary, one of several themed adventures awaiting you! This small, secluded apartment complex is at the end of the road and provides you a wonderful vacation atmosphere, allowing you to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city and get in touch with nature. You’ll enjoy direct access to 300' of shoreline, a dock, and boat ramp. We welcome leashed furry friends at no additional cost!
BEDS
1 Queen Bed
1 Queen Sleeper Sofa
The Space:
Professor Rousseau had you in mind when designing your space. He required an electronic lock which makes access available anytime you choose after 4:00 pm. He insisted on comfortable furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen, a coffee bar station, top-notch linens, and on-site laundry facilities to name a few. While Professor Rousseau was away on his most recent adventure, we converted his carport to a fabulous outdoor retreat complete with ample seating for all guests, a quaint fire pit, and a grill. We have provided you with many seating options to include Adirondack chairs surrounding the second wood-burning fire pit, dockside seating, plus your very own private seating area right outside your back door. Bring your boat, canoe, kayak, fishing equipment, binoculars, and camera! The sights and sounds are unlike anything you have experienced by both day and night. All the wildlife here loves Professor Rousseau and you, his special guest!
THE DIFFERENCE
Professor Rousseau has a deep and personal commitment to you as his Guest to provide the highest standard of cleanliness. We will spend several hours between each stay to thoroughly clean and sanitize all surfaces plus wash every item that could have been touched or used by the Guest before you.
Guest Access:
We have plenty of off-street parking for your vehicle, boats, or trailers.
We have a special parking area for boats and trailers. Please let us know if you will be bringing one so we may direct you to the parking area.
The Neighborhood:
Crystal River is best known as one of the few places in the world that vacationers may swim alongside the manatees in person during their winter refuge at Hunter Springs Park and Kings Bay. Hunter Springs Park features a sandy beach for swimmers, a kayak launch, a picnic area, plus a boardwalk for viewing manatees. Kings Bay also has a kayak launch, fishing pier, and three waterfront restaurants serving seafood, often fresh off the boat from the two waterfront fishing operations. Within a few blocks of these two iconic manatee hangouts are several incredible restaurants, cafes, and unique shopping venues on North Citrus Avenue. One of Professor Rousseau’s favorite places to shop and dine is Amy’s.
Another City close by is Dunnellon. For those of you that have decided to launch your boat and travel to the Withlacoochee and Rainbow Rivers, two notable restaurants are the Blue Gator Tiki Bar and Swampy’s. Leave early to grab your boat parking spot during busy seasons!
Getting Around:
If your idea of getting around includes a boat, kayak, or canoe, or if you enjoy fishing, you’ll love Professor Rousseau’s. Fish from our dock and utilize our fish cleaning station next to the shore. Launch your aquatic device from our private boat ramp or dock, and you’re on Lake Rousseau, a human-made 3,657-acre lake that offers incredible fishing opportunities. You'll find walleye, pike, smallmouth, and occasionally largemouth bass, year-round.
Safety first! The lake is full of submerged stumps that provide cover for fish. Keep in mind high-speed boating may be dangerous.
The Withlacoochee and Rainbow Rivers feed our beautiful lake with water. The Rainbow River begins with a headspring basin that produces between 400-600 million gallons of freshwater per day. This river provides us with a glimpse of rare habitats full of a wide variety of fish, wildlife, plants, and looking-glass clear waters. If you would like access to the Gulf of Mexico several public boat ramps are available including one that is only a few miles away from your front door.
Other Things to Note:
Furnishings may vary
Interaction with Guests:
Professor Rousseau believes that you are the most important person on earth during your stay as our guest. He understands that you may have questions, perhaps you have forgotten personal care items, or need something else, including recommendations for tours, dining, things to do, and places to see. Our team is committed to being available 24/7 for your convenience via the app/website, text, or phone. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything. It is Professor Rousseau’s goal that you are 100% satisfied with your stay and he looks forward to reading your 5-star review. Let us know what you need to make this happen!

The space
Professor Rousseau had you in mind when designing your space. He required an electronic lock which makes access available anytime you choose after 4:00 pm. He insisted on comfortable furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen, a coffee bar station, top-notch linens, and on-site laundry facilities to name a few. While Professor Rousseau was away on his most recent adventure, we converted his carport to a fabulous outdoor retreat complete with ample seating for all guests, a quaint fire pit, and a grill. We have provided you with many seating options to include Adirondack chairs surrounding the second wood-burning fire pit, dockside seating, plus your very own private seating area right outside your back door. Bring your boat, canoe, kayak, fishing equipment, binoculars, and camera! The sights and sounds are unlike anything you have experienced by both day and night. All the wildlife here loves Professor Rousseau and you, his special guest!
THE DIFFERENCE
Professor Rousseau has a deep and personal commitment to you as his Guest to provide the highest standard of cleanliness. We will spend several hours between each stay to thoroughly clean and sanitize all surfaces plus wash every item that could have been touched or used by the Guest before you.
