Great house!

We really enjoyed this house! The outdoor amenities make it exceptional! There are plenty of bath and pool towels, and the kitchen is well stocked with both a coffee pot and a keurig. The location on the canal is a quick kayak to Banana Island which was rich with residential manatee to see this late in April. Rebecca, the host, was easy to reach and checked in on us early to ensure we were comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The weather was beautiful and we spent 80% of our time outside. Would book again!

Excellent house, great location, awesome owner

My wife and I had a great time over the holiday weekend. Invited friends over for the day to kayak and have dinner and drinks by the fire pit on the water. Excellent communication with the owner and had no issues. Wife enjoyed the hot tub while I sat by the water and practiced my guitar. Couldn’t have been a better mini vacation. Highly recommend.

A Wonderful Stay

Had a wonderful stay, and appreciated the personal interest & interactions with Rebecca. Coupled with great weather and the Crystal River area mostly back from the hurricane, highly recommend a visit. The backyard Tiki bar, pool, and hot tub is a great combination... spent much time there. Had breakfast by the canal most days. Wish the kitchen was a little larger and the welcome book had a tad more info, eg, operating the tvs. That said, one of our best VRBO experiences. Gary & Deb

Best Property Manager Ever!

Our stay was planned and then 2 hurricanes hit this area. We were so worried about the condition of the house and the area. Rebecca was amazing!! She didn’t just message me, she picked up the phone and called me after each storm with updates and to ease any fears I had. She went above and beyond and it was so appreciated. Also, the house and all the amenities were amazing!

Loved All The Little EXTRAS!

This was our second time in Crystal River for scalloping and this house was a comfortable home base after a day on the water! We appreciated the hose at the floating dock (no checking ropes in the middle of the night for tide changes!) to rinse the boat, a full cleaning table with hose for cleaning our shells, refreshing pool, high end gas grill, multiple dining table options, true black out curtains, plenty of room in the driveway, quiet neighborhood, close to grocery shopping, and a full binder of easy to follow instructions on how the house runs with lots of suggestions for places to eat and things to see. We had a great time and can't wait to go back!

Father’s Day River Get Away

Pros - House is super clean! Plenty of kitchen comforts, and towels and linens are fresh. The backyard is where it is at! There is a beautiful patio/outdoor kitchen, with great lighting and a dock with a floating dock attachment easy for launching SUPs and Kayaks. Even a few Kayaks provided. The pool was refreshing and the landscaping was even well manicured. Cons - The movie screen is broken and no longer works, they did add a 65in TV however you will need to move the furniture around for everyone to see. There is only 1 round giant bean bag chair now as we never saw the other one pictured. Garage door was broken (understandable) and the AC was crippled and awaiting repair. We were told not to open any of the shades or windows if we wanted to keep the house cool. This is disappointing if you are wanting to get away for a change of scenery. I understand these things happen but none of them were revealed to us until the day of travel. Even a pool attendant came through the back yard and just started cleaning the pool, while we were in it. Also there are only 4 tall chairs on the back patio as when we arrived 2 broken ones were in the garage. There are NO TVs in any of the rooms just an FYI. Overall this was a great stay and a beautiful house. Property management gets back to you pretty quickly.

Beautifully quiet

The pictures dont do it enough justice. Theres plenty of room to spread out with family and still have enough privacy to accomodate everyone. The kayaks provided were 2 tandem and 1 single which worked perfect for us. We got to observe multiple manatees on multiple days. The outdoor kitchen was perfect for grilling and chillin outside all day. We would definitely rent this place again.

Great property!

Great location, gorgeous backyard/pool/tiki area. Clean and well equipped. Favorites from our time here were using the tandem kayaks and soaking in the hot tub every evening. We saw 2 manatees at the floating dock, which my 17 and 12 year old loved! Communication with host was impeccable. She anticipated our needs and made great recommendations (First Friday) that we enjoyed. THe house is close to the cute downtown area. We walked to 3 Sisters from the house and to Waterfront Social (yum) easily. Would highly recommend and hope to stay here again.
