The home was immaculate, the features were exactly as described, the pool as refreshing and the dock for our boat allowed easy access to many activities. All made for a very enjoyable time in Crystal River.

Very nice house and great outdoor area

The pool and hot tub were great. The tiki bar and dock area were perfect for hanging out. The floating dock is 20' and the depth in the canal is good enough for larger boats. Property manager was very easy to contact and helped out if we had any questions. I highly recommend.

A few friends and my husband and I rented this house for a long weekend. We all had the best time. House was so clean, outside oasis was peaceful and perfect for relaxing in the pool and grilling dinner. We launched kayaks from the boat dock and spent a day at the springs. The house had plenty of beach towels, towels, cooking supplies and extra blankets for the movie room. We went for walks in the morning around the neighborhood- perfect location in Crystal River! I would highly recommend! We will stay again.

Amazing Location for Kids

We stayed at the property for the first half of fall break. It was a perfect mix! My big kids kayaked with their Dad and went looking for Manatees (found them!) and my littles stayed in the pool 24/7. Rebecca is fantastic! Great place if you’re looking for some quiet.

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.

We just stayed at this Crystal River VRBO and couldn’t be happier! The home was absolutely spotless—truly one of the cleanest rentals we’ve ever experienced. The outdoor kitchen and tiki area gave us both privacy and the perfect place to relax.The upstairs blackout blinds and curtains were a dream come true for getting real rest (a rare find in vacation rentals!). The location is unbeatable—close to boating, restaurants, and anything else you could possibly want.Rebecca is a stellar host who clearly takes pride in making her guests feel at home. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for the perfect Crystal River stay!Only word of advice, watch the tides if you’re boating, especially on a full moon, major fluctuations.

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.

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
