It was ok , but disappointed with screened in area

The place was in a great location , but pretty outdated. The furniture was wore out , the bedroom FANS need to be replaced and were very noisy and hard to sleep . The day bed was terrible and wore out , also has pee stains all over mattress cover . The sliding glass door on the screen porch was very hard to open and lock. We were not able to use the screened in porch much due to mosquitos and gnats coming in through openings in screen. Please also need a can opener!!! I had to open cans with a knife and very frustrating.. We were disturbed with checking out because a man showed up at 9:30 and was digging through trash and walking around property. We felt rushed to check out … The trash situation needs to be more clear . We still enjoyed our stay and these things didn’t ruin our trip , but wanted yall to have feedback

Quiet, comfortable getaway

This is a great place to stay if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of tourism. The house offers many amenities and a lovely lanai. It is located between the town of Crystal River and the Gulf coast beach with access to several boat launches. The house was quite clean with the exception of 2 area rugs There was an issue with the sheets not being available or just worn out but other than those 2 complaints, the house was quite enjoyable.

Perfect Place to Stay in Crystal River!

This was the perfect place to stay on our week trip to Crystal River for kayaking and snorkeling with the manatees. Location in about 4 miles out of town with a 8-10 minute drive to all the tour places. The kitchen had everything we needed, including a drip coffee maker. Beds were comfortable and the canal location was exotic and very safe.We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful

This place was absolutely beautiful. The space under the house was very convenient for washing dive gear and letting it drip dry, and the screened in porch was a great place to sit, watch the sunrise, and listen to the birds sing. Would definitely recommend.

This house had everything we needed.

We enjoyed our stay. The house is nice and is well stocked. Like every house in the area, it is built up with parking below so has a flight of stairs to get in. It is centrally located to good restaurants, shopping, a beach and boating excursions. We would definitely stay there again!

Relaxing stay at this lovely home!

My husband and I enjoyed a couple of wonderful days at this lovely location. The house was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking. The screened in back porch was wonderful for having coffee in the morning. We highly recommend it! The location is easily accessible to local attractions like Three Sisters Springs. Do be aware that the stairs in the front and back are steep and a little hard on the knees if you have arthritis. The property manager was very nice and responsive both before and during the visit. All in all, it’s definitely a 5 out of 5!!

Excellent Crystal River getaway location

The place is exactly as described and very clean. Everything was in good working condition and we enjoyed our stay. We ran into a few weather issues heading into our trip and the property manager worked with us to accommodate our concerns. She even personally drove to the property and checked on it prior to our arrival. I definitely look forward to returning and staying there in the future.

Nice weekend

We stayed here for a long weekend after Thanksgiving. Our family of four had a blast! We brought a 14 ft John boat and our kayaks and we’re able to easily navigate the small canal. Low tide made it difficult to park our kayaks and had to walk through the mud. Home is very secluded and we loved laying in the hammock one afternoon.

2021 Scalloping Season

The property was as advertised and worked well for us. We had no issues with our 23 foot boat and everything we needed was readily available. The dock has water, power and lighting. That was helpful. Nice and peaceful neighborhood and a short ride to the boat ramp. We would certainly book it again.

Easy Check In - Great Accommodations

Easy to find, easy check-in & great accommodations. Very clean and up to date. Everything privided (except bar soap). The Springs & boat ramp are close by. Food was good at Charlie's & Margueritagrille (with nice views). Too early for scallop season, so headed up to Steinhatchee. Caught a few, but weather chased us off the bay. Will plan to return. Thank you for providing your home!
