Lovely property, convenient to everywhere! Pool just outside the door and dock just beyond the pool. Even though there are only 2 bedrooms there was PLENTY of sleeping space for our group of 6. Super soft sheets, adequate # of towels, and everything we needed in the kitchen. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice house close to town and the springs.

The house was perfect for our annual yearly guys fishing trip. Pool and home were clean and perfect for gathering.
Hosts were super nice and responded quickly all the time. I would highly recommend this home and plan on returning with my wife and kids.
5.0
I can't say enough how much we enjoyed our stay. The owners/hosts we fabulous to work with. The house was very clean and stocked with all the essentials plus some. We will definitely be back and highly recommend! Great location for those with a boat. Thank you for making our Anniversary stay special as well.
3.0
Overall the house was beautiful and really large and in a great location. We just had some bad luck really. When we got there the home smelled like urine. So we had to open it all up and call the property manager. They gave us some air freshener and said it should go away. It never did, when we had to close the place up because of weather, it came back. It was in a central location by the 1/2 bath. Then when it rained, the septic backed up into the shower and all the toilets and we had to call them again. We couldn't take showers, do laundry, anything really for a whole day. They sent someone right out the next afternoon. The pool really is not warm enough when the weather isn't hot out, that is no ones fault, just FYI.

Overall excellent place to stay; would recommend
Two suggestions to improve: A/C unit makes loud popping noise every time it comes on. Palm tree fronds are hanging down enough to block the sidewalk at front door.
5.0
Place was great. Two couples and two teenagers. Plenty of bathrooms and space for all. Will be booking again.
5.0
The stay was great. House was clean and had no issues at all. The pool was great and clean also. Met the owners and they were great. Will stay again.
5.0
The home had everything we needed plus more. The beds were comfy. The heated pool was a hit! It was located perfectly close but not too close to town, restaurants, ice cream places. The hosts were extremely friendly and hospitable. Went above and beyond a normal host that we have come in contact with.

We spent a week in this lovely home equipped with every amenity. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need even on the first night of your arrival. The little touches (bath soaps, shampoos, etc.) are more indicative of a B &B than a house rental. One can spend a day looking at all of the interesting beach-centered wall art. We especially noted how many wall sockets are in the house in this age of needing to re-charge devices. We are a couple in our 70’s, who enjoyed the view of the canal from the patio without a pressing need to go out and explore; the house is much larger than our needs now. There is adequate space and activity (fishing, crabbing, kayaking) for two couples or two families to share this spaciously designed house. Linda and Dan are more than accommodating, and will answer your every question about the home or the area.

Property and owners were very nice, boat dock was very cluttered, plus boat lift was inoperable. Canal is very shallow. Our boat stayed on trailer in lot across the street. House was very well stocked and holiday decorations were all about the house.

Thank you so much for letting us stay at your home and we are so happy to have made new friends!

Great place!
5.0
We were two couples and spent the week here. Great house that has everything you could possibly need. The pool is perfect and has a solar heater that keeps it just the right temp. Great place of you own a boat as it has a working boat lift and dock. Really can’t say enough about how clean and open the house is!
5.0
Great location! Dock was perfect for the boats and the kids loved the pool. We’ll be back!!
5.0
So clean! I felt like I was staying at my favorite Aunt’s house. You know, the one who was on Golden Girls. Classic, classy, Florida style. The mauve bathroom in the master is coming back in style!
Note: “4 car driveway” = one Ford F-250. Boat dock and boat lift work great. No trailer parking. We used the empty lot across the street for trailer and additional truck. Didn’t have permission, but didn’t get in trouble either.
Pool-it’s a Little Dipper! 20 ft by 7 ft, 6 foot deep. It was just fine for us. Just don’t expect a big pool.
4.0
Great place. Pool, dock, kitchen and amenities were perfect for our group of 6. Everything all of us needed to be comfortable and enjoy a great few days stay. Throwing it out, neighbors seem to not like the house being a VRBO but we didn’t let that bother us. That’s just our thoughts, nothing happened just sensed it. Wouldn’t have changed the time spent and appreciate the stay! We had a blast. Would book again.

Week of the 4th
We had a great 5 days at this home. Relaxing out on the dock watching manatees, sitting by the pool. Taking the boats out to scallop. Going to the springs. Property owners were nice, and live in the same neighborhood. Neighborhood is very quiet. Dock was big enough for 2 boats. An overall good experience.
5.0
Had a great time.
Well laid out house for a vacation. Kids had fun fishing off the dock and kayaking. The pool is smaller than the pictures portray but it fit the space well. We would love to come back.

We plan to visit again.

Great Property
This was a great location and property. Close to everything but the setting is quiet and peaceful. You can enjoy your morning coffee out on the dock enjoying the sounds of nature and watching the fish jump. We had a little issue with the lock but the owners were quick to resolve and stopped by to make sure all was OK. they gave us recommendations for things in the area. Would definitely recommend

Amazing Canal home
This home was so clean and comfortable ! The pool was refreshing and views to the back canal with Kayaks was great ! Full kitchen with all the items needs to cook . Close to area attractions ! Loved it

Wonderful Rental
We had a wonderful stay! The house was well kept and clean. The beds were comfortable. The pool was serviced during our stay which was great. Just a short drive from numerous springs. We had fun exploring on the kayaks. Lots of wonderful wildlife viewing opportunities. Would most certainly rent again.

Crystal River property has something for everyone
This home in Crystal River had everything we wanted and more. Very clean property, well-stocked kitchen, plenty of indoor and outdoor games and equipment to keep everyone happy. With suites on either end of the home, it had a great layout for our two couples, and there are of additional sleeping options if you have more guests. The home was nicely decorated with quality furniture and bedding, and both indoor and outdoor tables to accommodate playing games and meals. The location, on a dead-end street with a canal in back, was quiet and nice for watching the birds and fish. It was just a short drive to town, hiking trails, or the beach. We were lucky to meet the property owners who live nearby and were super friendly and helpful with local information. We would stay at this property again.

Peaceful home away from home
The home was very clean and just as described. The owners stopped by and were very friendly! Pool was cleaned during our trip as well. The location is beautiful and the neighborhood so quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed many nighttime walks. The home has plenty of room and we loved the flow of the home. The pool was a plus for the kiddos, although it was a little cold. Loved having pool noodles, life vests, and beach towels at the property. The grill didn’t heat up as much as we expected and took a long while. Fort Island Beach has beautiful sunsets! Perfect location to town and 5 minutes to swim at Hunters spring or with the manatees. Would stay again!!!!

Great accommodations!
Thank you for allowing us to enjoy the peace and tranquility of your home. We had a death in our family and had to reserve something quickly. We are so glad that your place could accommodate the last minute booking.
The house is located in the quiet neighborhood of Dixie Shores. The area felt safe and secure.
The kids enjoyed the pool and dock after a day of handling personal matters with our family. It was a great distraction.
The home had everything we needed to prepare meals, as well as wash clothes after the kids were finished fishing.
We would definitely book this home again for a true vacation.

Great place to stay
