    I came back to FL for the 6th time and fell in love with my stilt house and it's location. There are canals on all three sides but not directly in my yard. This gem sat empty 5 years waiting for me.  She was brown and tired looking, I jazzed her up and brought her to life with bright colors and my eccentric decorating ideas, and animals. You can meet my Munchkin cats, my MaCaw, Jasmine (she bites) and my little dog, Jax, while visiting. I have one neighbor, on Leaf Ct., across the street, Carolyn, and that is where Happy Hour most days is at 4:00 pm. We usually have cheese and crackers, snacks of some sort but beverages are BYOB. I have 1 fishing pole, bait bucket, fish holder net ready to fill up from her dock. She has one fishing Kayak available to rent for $15 a day. You can park your airboat at her dock too. Sometimes I offer specialty dinners as well, reasonable prices. Canal Life is a pleasant adventure, a little out of the way, a true hidden gem in Inverness. The property is large enough for a couple tents to stay in front while you are here, invite your friends. The flowers and the butterflies, the birds, owls, San Hill Cranes, and other critters may cross your path... Learn more about this land: PRIMITIVE, bring your own drinking water and toilet.  Perfect camp for those that like privacy.  Inverness, off of Turner Camp Road,  come by airboat or drive in.  Friends/family can bring tents or self contained vehicle.  Your area is large and you can put several tents here. I think my property is the perfect place for a couple or a small group to camp and have a great time but have all the privacy you don't get in a campground.  The campground has a charcoal grill, a firepit, rod iron table with seating for 4.    We are right past the airboat dam off Turner Camp.  Blacktop road down to site and water. Close to Inverness Fireworks, or you can shoot them off across the canal.  Access to the Tsala Lake Canals at the end of road, 3 mi to the Withlacoochee River and free public boat ramp. The property is on a peninsula walking distance to airboat dam.  We are somewhat isolated but only 1/2 mile to a convenience store, 7 miles to town. No one ever comes down my road unless they know where they are going. Go to Rainbow Springs, Withlacoochee Bike Trail, See Manatees or Hunt Scallops in Crystal River, Going to Disney or Orlando, stay in your tent here and save.  Right now you can pull an RV in there if you can back down the street. PRIMITIVE, bring your own drinking water and toilet.  Perfect camp for those that like privacy.  Inverness, off of Turner Camp Road,  come by airboat or drive in.  Friends/family can bring tents or self contained vehicle.  Your area is large and you can put several tents here.

    Airboat launch and terri’s yard
    Terri is a kind host, you are camping in her front yard next to her driveway which is 150’ from an airboat launch. We did not opt to stay there as we were looking for something more private and secluded. But if a patch of grass and an airboat/canoe launch in the canal is your game. Game on.

    Cute country heaven
    Group trip
    Terri was so sweet and personable! I felt completely comfortable staying on her property with my dogs. She is very accommodating and wants to keep her guests comfortable. My husband has asked that we stay here again of another chance arises.
