We loved this place! Had a boat and was wonderful to walk less than a minute to get in and go see the manatees from the dock - right on the Springs.Did not know until we got there how terrific the yard was for dogs! Large and fully enclosed and secure.The grill on the patio was great and easy to use. We were here for 3 short days, and hope to come back for more.

We had an amazing weekend at what we've named the manatee house! Our morning manatee show was UNREAL! Large cows, momma & baby and frisky teenagers! The house had plenty of room and a great yard and dock! Book this house if you want to be close to manatees!!

We had a wonderful time at this gorgeous home in Crystal River. Truly unique with awesome nautical decor, it was super comfy. Our dog loved the enclosed backyard, and it was great having our boat tied up at the floating dock next door. We swam with the manatees and it was INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend doing this with one of the local guides! You can get to several restaurants by boat, and the views were stunning.Owners were attentive. No wine glasses in the house - I suggested they add some, as that’s a must! The Master is unique in that the windows open to the living area, so keep that in mind if traveling with others. There are curtains but they don’t offer 100% privacy. All in all a great house, super clean - would not hesitate to stay there again!

This house has it all. It is so pretty and has a great view of the big spring . The boat ramp is 5 minutes away and the docking facility at the house was great. Very conveniently located to all restaurants .

Our family had a wonderful two night stay for our annual scalloping trip. This location was fantastic, as it was on the waterfront and was close to both Pete’s Pier and Twin Rivers Marina. There’s a spring near by the house that was a fun exploration. The interior is nicely decorated, with some unique nautical characteristics that make you truly feel like you’re on vacation. The kitchen had all of the essentials we needed to cook for multiple days for the family. The beds were comfortable, and the home is spacious. There is a large fenced in yard on the waterfront, with gorgeous sunset views. The back porch is completely screened in, which is a necessity it Florida! Definitely would recommend!

We loved our time with another family at this rental! The space was very unique with so many interesting design details! It was very cool to be located right on King’s Bay where we could keep our boat in the water for easy access to restaurants, springs and scalloping!
