This was the perfect house for our group! We came to go scalloping, and we trailered a 28 foot boat. The location is perfect and the house is very large, clean, comfortably decorated and FULLY stocked. We would gladly book again, any time of the year.
We had a great time being together with family members from various parts of the country. The home was spacious, clean, and well-stocked with coffee and other needed essentials.
This house was perfect for 4 adults - comfortable king size beds in 2 of the rooms. Loved sitting on the back patio watching boats and kayaks. The ping pong table was fun to play also.
The house is fully equipped for a great vacation. The location is central to everything you need. The weather didn’t cooperate but we made the best of it.
We stayed here for memorial day weekend. The place is much bigger than the pictures show. We were very impressed & plan to book again. Ice maker out back is a huge win. Also, the spare propane tank in the garage came in handy when the other on the grill ran out. Filet table out back was great.
Great place to relax with my family over Spring Break. My two daughter's also brought friends and there was plenty of room. The owners were so nice and we had the best time kayaking around Crystal River and relaxing around the housePO y see
We thoroughly enjoyed our New Year's stay in Crystal River! The location is unbeatable for anyone looking to be close to the manatee action. The house features a private dock, and while we didn't take advantage of it, you could easily paddle a kayak directly to the springs.Our kids loved hanging out by the canal in the back, fishing and watching the adventure pontoon boats head out each day. It’s worth noting that the canal gets active early, with some engine starts around 5:30 AM, but it adds to the "fishing village" charm of the area.The property is tucked away at the end of a dead-end street, so there was almost no traffic, making it feel very quiet and safe. We did have a minor issue with the neighbor’s dogs barking, but the host was incredibly responsive. They put us in touch with the neighbors (who were very nice!) and even provided a bark control device that solved the problem.Overall, a great, secure spot for a family getaway. We’d definitely stay here again!
The house was simply amazing. There was enough room for everyone and then some if needed. We loved the 2 master suites with the on suites. The location was perfect. The events we were there for, grocery stores, restaurants, gas you name it and it was close by. Looking forward to staying next year. Thanks Dani
House is extremely clean and prepared with everything you need for a fun family vacation. Very functional layout. The owners have thought of everything and are very easy to communicate with. House is directly across from Plantation Inn on a narrow canal. The kayaks and boat slip are very convenient. House is pet friendly but would never know it! All around excellent.
House is located on a quiet dead end street. House is very spacious and clean. It is equipped with everything you need so no worries about forgetting anything. It has multiple boat slips. I have a 26’ fishing boat and had no issues getting in and out. With all of that said the best part was how accommodating and helpful the owners were. You won’t regret renting this house.
We loved the property. Perfect for our two family’s. Tons of space and above and beyond everything you need. Ping pong table was a huge hit! We were there to kayak and see manatees. 3 sisters spring is an absolute must! It was a long paddle for our crew but we made it! Very close to hunter springs beach. We took the kayaks there and launched them. That is a must do as well! On our last day we rented a boat from the adventure center across the water and had a fabulous time seeing everything by boat. We hope to visit again soon!
There were 6 of us that made it out of 11. We could have easily and comfortably slept all 11. The convenience to get on the water daily was superb! We saw 5 manatees playing in the canal for over an hour, and we were even visited by 3 bald eagles at one time! Game room was an added bonus for the teens. We had a great time sitting on the screened porch watching the rain. Super spacious and 3 bathrooms made for great privacy for all. Loved this home!!
Great spacious house. The ping pong table and ice machine were great additions. Having a place to park the boat trailer was great! The no-seeums were bad in the evenings and the tidal swing made it difficult to use the boat slip. Outside of those two things which the host can’t control, everything was Awesome!
This house is located very conveniently near the plantation inn in the heart of Crystal River. The house has a wonderful open floor plan which makes it very spacious. The large dinning room table allowed for nice family meals and cards games. The kitchen has everything you need to cook and serve family meals. The ping pong table was a big hit as well. The dock has easy access to the canal and we had no problem docking or accessing the canal with our 25 foot boat. Check in was a breeze. Dani is a great host!
Dani was wonderful with communication and helpful to anything you could need. Property was exactly as described and very cozy/convenient. We will definitely be staying there again in the future.
The house was fantastic! Location was central to everything and the host was nothing short of phenomenal to communicate and deal with. Highly recommend this house during manatee season!
