Amy provides everything you could possibly need - except for the fish that allegedly live in the lake.😆 The view of the the sunsets was a welcome surprise. We had a minor glitch when we arrived but Amy was very responsive and helpful. Can’t complain about this place. Nice getaway! ##### Mandy H.

The lake house was the perfect place for the two of us to relax and enjoy the Nature Coast of Florida. We watched wildlife from the dock and enjoyed the sunsets each evening. Windy days deterred us from using the canoe except for one quick outing. Nothing negative with the house except that which was already mentioned. We would definitely recommend the lake house to those that enjoy quiet in nature and are looking for a home base to enjoy natural attractions in the vicinity, like Manatees! ##### Kyle L.

The sunsets over the lake were soo beautiful. We enjoyed sitting on the dock each evening enjoying the beauty and peacefulness. The house was perfect for us. It had everything we needed. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped . Comfortable beds and nice sitting areas with lake views. We spent a lot of time in the sunroom at night listening to music and having our nightly tea. Nice size bathroom and big fluffy towels. The house was just as advertised and very clean. The location was great also. Very quiet neighborhood and 20 min to Crystal River . Our host Amy, was very friendly and easy to contact We would definitely stay here again! ##### Sondra S. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023
