Great hideaway close to all the springs

We had a very pleasant stay at the hippo house. Its tucked away in the middle of everything. The owners communicated well. It was our very First time visiting the west coast springs. Our favorite was 7 sisters. 3 sister was nice also. We were on crystal river and the homosassa river. Also the chassahowitzka river. Very beautiful area. They dont call it the nature coast for nothing. I did have one small issue with the fence. I had read a previous review from a stay about the fence having a hole that their little dog could eacape. We brought 4 dogs. One is a mix dog with many hunting breeds and when he sees any wildlife he's after it. He ended up on the other side of the fence on the right side of the property line.. before booking I specifically asked if the fence was secured. It isnt secured properly on all sides so do mind your dogs if they're mischievous when they see wildlife.....other than that we had a wonderful stay. Also Do watch your speed on the main roads. The cops were speed trapping alot all up and down 19. We didnt get pulled but seen several people day and night getting pulled over for speed.

Great Weekend Getaway

Me and my girlfriend made a quick weekend get away to visit the area. We were able to use the kayaks on property saving us almost half of what we paid for the house just in kayak rentals for one day. The house was not the ritz Carlton by any means but it was definitely clean and cozy. The back yard was big and well manicured my pup loved it. We also used the fire pit in the back yard at night and it was lovely

Private, quiet, great location

We stayed for a month with our dog, and it was a great visit. It wasn’t one of those fancy places where you are afraid to touch anything. It felt like a real home where we could settle in.The owners were responsive and relaxed and gave us our privacy. Our only concern was that the backyard fence had openings that need to be fixed, so we had to watch our dog every time she went out to make sure she didn’t slip through a gap.

Pet Paradise !

Kurt and Marie great hosts, was searching for 3 dogs allowed, secure private fenced back yard was great for them to run free and sniff etc. Beds and bath were very good, large comfy couch/sleeper. Nice small firepit, bring some firelogs and your bluetooth speaker for wonderful ambiance! Quiet safe street,easy on off 19/98. Very clean, well supplied. If you are traveling with dogs, you can not top this stay!

It was a very quiet and somewhat secluded spot, with little noise. It has a large backyard for my dogs to run (I think they thought they were at a resort). Though it was during hurricane Milton, we felt safe and sound. I would come back again and again if I have to leave the Tampa area again.

Clean small house with great yard for dogs

Just what we needed for our trip to Homassa/Crystal River. Centrally located right off of 19. Quick trip to both springs for paddling and boats for scalloping. Dogs loved the yard. House is old Florida but very clean, comfortable well appointed. Very Quiet and private location.
