The house was wonderful. Great location on the canal, and the pool was amazing. Everything we needed was at the house, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Some people have said that the driveway can be hard to get out of, but we found that if there was no one on the road when you arrived, backing in made it extremely easy to leave. We love it and look forward to coming back.

Great house really enjoyed the location great place for our boat easy access to our favorite fishing spots we will be back loved the pool for the kids also

This is the third or fourth time I have stayed at this property, I love it because of the location, You can pop your kayaks right in the canal or you can easily drive to other places. The house is well stocked and very clean.

My wife and I stayed here but realized that with all of the bedrooms and multiple dining tables this would be a great place for a family reunion! Beautiful property, beautiful location. One issue was the busy main road - the noise didn’t bother us too much, but pulling out of the driveway was challenging! After staying a week we had still not quite figured out how to get out of the driveway safely….it doesn’t help that people rarely obey the posted speed limit! Everything else was great!

The house has a vacation vibe everywhere you look while maintaining the cozy feel of home. Everything we needed was provided—from kayaks to condiments! The location to the three sisters, rainbow river, the gulf and a boat launch was 5-star as well. If we come back this way, we would definitely stay here again!

This place was amazing. Great home. Great location. Was just an amazing place for the whole family. Loved it so much!!!

Fantastic! Our family had an amazing time at Mark's home. Mark was very easy to communicate with before and during our trip and answered all of our questions. The property is set on the canal with a boat/fishing dock and a great cleaning table for the fish that you WILL catch! The house is great with an open floor plan, and a kitchen with everything you will need. There are 3 bedrooms with comfortable beds and bedding and two great bathrooms The house has a washer/dryer and even an ice maker for your beach trip cooler! The pool was heated to an amazing 87 degrees and was screened to keep out the bugs in the evening. Best of all, there are 6 kayaks that we use each day to explore the canals, Crystal River, and Kings Bay. We saw Manatees, Dolphins, and beautiful turtles and birds on our kayaking trips. Less than 10 minutes away was Fort Island Beach, a white sandy beach with several fishing piers. We would highly recommend Mark and his beautiful home and look forward to staying here again on our next trip to Crystal River. Thanks again Mark for a wonderful vacation for my family!

The house was exactly as described. We had a great time and especially appreciated the great location. The owner called to check on us because a tornado had passed through Crystal River the night before. We lost power for the day (as did all the surrounding homes) but fortunately no other issues. The pool, ice machine, and back patio over looking the canal are very nice amenities.

It was a great place for grandparent / grandchildren trip. Mark was very helpful for dealing with TV, other questions and touring opportunities.

The house was just how it was described. Clean little place and well maintained. Mark was great as well . We would stay there again.

We truly enjoyed our stay from the ease of access to the use of the kayaks. It was so easy to connect with Mark prior to our trip and I loved his quick response. The home had everything we needed and more. We especially loved sitting out of the patio with the pool and canal right there. In the evening we were minutes to the beach to view the lovely sunsets. We rate his home extremely high for location and comfort plus all of the activities to do. We would absolutely go back again. It was wonderful!!!

Nice house in a convenient location

First, the convenience of the boat ramp a short drive away was extremely helpful. Nice big ramps made getting our 22 ft boat in easy. Ride from ramp to house was smooth as we timed it to be there during high tide. House had everything we needed to prepare meals and was well stocked with towels and lots of pillows. Wonderful homebase for scalloping and exploring. Kayaks were a bonus that our kids enjoyed taking to Hunter Springs. Mike was very responsive to questions. Will definitely be back!

Had a great stay. Everything was the way it should be for a great vacay. We will be back.

This was our second year staying at this house. Everything was great. Pool was perfect temp for getting off the water after scalloping. Everything was nice and clean. Can’t wait to go back next year.

This property has every amenity you could want in a waterfront property in Crystal River with only a few drawbacks. The property itself is great with an open floor plan perfect for relaxing. The beds were super comfortable with nice bedding. Plenty of towels, kitchen extras, washer/dryer and best of all an ICE MAKER! They even had kayaks but we did not use them. The heated 86 degree pool was nice after the 75 degree springs. The screened back patio was large and kept the bugs away. The property is located on a main road to the boat ramps so loud trucks constantly drive by with a few "racers" at 2am even though it is 35 mph. I am a heavy sleeper but the noise is something to note. Also pulling out onto the road and into the property with the boat trailer is difficult. The canal to the property is extremely shallow at low tide and anything with a draw of over 1ft would not make it during that time. Be care as there was always a manatee in canal and we had to wait for him to move so we could drive by. The tide swing is also 2+ ft so the fact you cannot use the floating dock due to the neighbors boat, ensure you do not get caught under or on top of the stationary dock. Overall the property's location to town by car and to the springs by boat/kayak is great and we would stay here again.

The house was very spacious with its open floor plan. Nice touches cabinets stocked with anything we might need. Very cute with all the details and décor. Clean, clean, clean. The pool was so nice as well.

The home has a nice layout. The living room and patio have comfortable seating. The beds are comfortable but the furniture in the main bedroom has lots of wear. The kitchen is easy to cook in but it would be great if it had a large pot for boiling blue crab/stone crab/snow crab claws and cookie sheet. and jelly roll pan. The canal is very shallow on low tide. In some areas 1.5 feet, with rocks or logs. We have a 21 foot bow rider V hull. We were able to navigate the canal with the motor on full tilt up. But still had to push off of shallow areas. We are native Floridians, boaters and seasoned scallopers that rent for a week every year. This is the second out of multiple years at Crystal River with the scallops being sparse. FFWCC needs to close the season or shorten it for one year to let the scallops replenish.

We took a short trip to Crystal River to kayak to springs and enjoy the pool. The house was perfect. The beds were comfy, kayaks were nice, the house was clean and the kitchen had everything we could need. We enjoyed kayaking to hunter springs( 3 sisters was closed) both days and made it back in plenty of time to have pool time. Book this house!

Very clean and spacious. Canal is very shallow but over we had a great time.

Great property and location and had everything we needed.

Second time staying here. Love the kayaks and convenience to launch from the property. Pool was amazing. Coming again next year.

Very comfortable pool home. Great beds, location and access to the River. Mark was very accomodating.

Over all a pleasant time

We enjoyed our stay. The home manager, Mark, is easy going and helpful when needed. Thanks Again, John

The house was spotless, everything we needed. Very comfortable and the heated pool was amazing. We had a cold front come thru but the heated pool made it nice to enjoy the cool evenings. The host was quick to respond and checked to make sure we had what we needed. We would definitely rent again. Thanks Kim G. North Carolina

Everything was great. Very Clean, well supplied, good location. Pool was great after all day fishing.

Awesome rental. Great amenities, great location and superb pool. Everyone fell in love with Crystal river. We all might retire there in 10 years. Host reached out to me and kept me updated on Hurricane Ian.

This vacation rental was very nice, modern and clean! Great location for boating and got to come back and cool off in the pool. Definitely made for a great vacation!

We just stayed 3 nights and the only complaint we had at all was we couldn't stay longer! The house was very clean, well supplied with necessities and a perfect location. Owner was easily accessible for any questions. There is lots to do for everyone. A well maintained pool, boat dock, Kayaks! We will be back again!

Everything was great from start to finish. Boat ramp right down the road had enough time to go out right when we got there. Pool was perfect after getting off the water and relaxing. Can’t wait to go back next year

Had a great trip fishing with my dad. House was not only clean and great but it was perfect for being close to fishing
