Worked out well for us. Bar was noisy, but only on the weekend.

There is a "no overnight parking" sign at the grassy lot.

Quiet and peaceful night. Note: the grassy area is across the street from the gravel parking lot. Per ordinances, there is no overnight parking in any park. But this is marked as “public parking” but not a park. Do not park in the gravel driveway.

Large gravel lot next to bar with live music and across street from wine bar. Three blocks from Hunter Springs park where you might swim with manatees if time of year is right. Nice town and park manager said the lot is free to stay. Relatively quiet

Stayed overnight without any problems. Sheriff drove by a couple of times. Good place for visiting the local springs and manatees.

Stayed overnight. No signs saying no parking. RV parked beside us. Was a bit loud with a live band playing at the bar across the road. But quiet after they closed. Left around 8am.

Public parking without any signs of overnight interdiction. Close to cute part of Crystal River and walking distance to Hunter Spring Park, many restaurants and attractions.

Stationnement publique sans interdiction de stationnement de nuit affiché. Près de la partie touristique de Crystal River, à une courte distance du parc urbain Hunter Spring Park, restaurants et autres commerces.

Good spot to stay over night. There was even a porta potty nearby, in front of the water tower, that we were able to use. Police was hanging out for some minutes next to the parking lot and then on the lot, but didn't bother us, maybe also because they didn't notice us (sleeping in an SUV).
Short walking distance to kayak rental and launch site at Hunter Spring Park.
