Sprague House; offering Bed and Breakfast accommodations located in the quaint small town of Crescent City, Florida, the land time has forgotten and where memories are made. Secluded in the southern end of Putnam County and nestled between 2 lakes, Lake Crescent and Lake Stella.

History tells us the home was opened as a rooming house to the sea captains and sailors from the steam ships that had made the trip via the St. John’s River.
