This is an older, very small campground with an incredible amount of charm. Management is extremely…read morepleasant, accommodating, and welcoming. If you're arriving after dark, be cautious--the entrance sign is not lit. I was driving a 40-foot motorhome towing a 30-foot trailer and mistakenly took the first turn instead of the second. The signage isn't illuminated, so headlights are helpful to confirm you're in the right place. I highly recommend arriving before dark. The campground is very quiet and feels like stepping back into "old Florida." It sits right on the river, where we saw otters playing and fish jumping--literally jumping two feet out of the water. Very cool. We stayed in Site 20, a pull-in site with excellent river views and located right next to the boat ramp. There's a small store on-site that sells firewood, fire rings at the sites, and it's perfect for a relaxing evening. The permanent residents were extremely friendly and helpful. Kayaks are available to rent for river trips (we didn't do that this time). They don't sell bait, but there's a great bait and tackle shop less than a quarter mile across the street with wonderful people--perfect for fishing off the dock. No problems at all, the dogs loved it, and my wife really enjoyed how relaxing it was. We'd happily stay again.

Great location for kayaking, etc. There's so many places to explore…read more We arrived on a Sunday and heading down to the boat launch. There were a lot of people in/on the water having a good time. Heavy kayak/boat traffic, but everyone was respectful of each other. We took the kayak out on a Tuesday and had a peaceful time. We went to Seven Sisters Springs - didn't cave dive but it was crystal clear. Also ventured down to the crack - but it was murky (from the hurricane) and we couldn't see it. We saw many fish, crabs and even river otters on our trip! The campground itself is good. It's heavily wooded and if you go, be sure to bring bug spray. The horseflies are awful (I have a bunch of painful bites). We can't sit outside and enjoy the weather. All in all not a bad place to camp.

He gave us plenty of time to look for things to come up out of the water which was great for my 2 year old. Boat was shaded and was enjoyable even with a small child. Other tours wouldn't let me book because she was under 3- we brought our own lifevest but they did also have some on board that were her size.

Our Captain was Mike, and our guide was Crystal. They were both awesome, and us 3 (my 9 y/o…read moredaughter, my 14 y/o son, and I) had a great time. I will definitely recommend. The only 2 reasons I do not give a 5-star review are: 1) it was not heated, even though I saw the plastic covers, but they didn't put them down, and 2) the $45 they did not discuss for pictures, so I did not bring a camera.

Capt Jimmy and his first mate were stellar and created such a fun experience for my 11 year olds…read morebirthday. The memories that were made were priceless. Alot of really insane moments (huge fish hooks, sharks, sea turtles, birds) and not at all a slow fishing day. I have never needed a break from my arms being so tired from fishing. My son tapped early and we still went home with a cooler full of absolutely delicious fish. Jimmy even gave some recipe ideas for the various catches. I am an avid freshwater angler but my wife and son were not as experienced and they were helped through every process and we all learned so much. It creates an itch to immediately go again so you can implement what you learned sooner in the trip hehe. This is not just a pay to go catch fish charter. I would highly recommend it to anyone from anglers to people that have never touched a pole. My son has talked and talked about it and experiences like this just create better memories and knowledge gained than a theme park could ever.

Incredible scalloping experience!…read more My fiancé and I went up to visit the Crystal River Homosassa area for the weekend. I did a quick Google around to find a scalloping charter. I came across mellow mangrove charters. I booked online through their website. It was simple and efficient. I immediately received a confirmation email. We arrived to the location at 6:50 AM for the 7 o'clock departure time. Luckily, all the other guests on the boat arrived on time and we were able to leave promptly. Our captain was knowledgeable and very polite. He took us to a location where there were tons of scallops! He gave us all of the necessary instructions to have a wonderfully productive day! We reached our limit of 2 gallons per person and then we were able to enjoy the rest of the time bubbling around in the water. The boat was clean and comfortable. We are already trying to plan our next adventure to return to homosassa and mellow mangrove charters!
