The Chassahowitzka River is a 5.6 mile-long river located in Florida. The name Chassahowitzka is derived from the Seminole language, which means "pumpkin hanging place."

The river is also home to several important fish species, including snook, redfish, and black drum. There are no dams or reservoirs on the river, and it is not used for agricultural purposes. The Chassahowitzka River is a popular destination for kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and wildlife viewing. It is protected by the Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge, which was established in 1941.
