Pool, patio, tiki bar/kitchen, & dock were great amenities. Beds were comfortable, blackout blinds were great for sleeping in. Nice breeze coming down the canal. Glad to have the use of the kayaks. Host very responsive.
We really enjoyed this house! The outdoor amenities make it exceptional! There are plenty of bath and pool towels, and the kitchen is well stocked with both a coffee pot and a keurig. The location on the canal is a quick kayak to Banana Island which was rich with residential manatee to see this late in April. Rebecca, the host, was easy to reach and checked in on us early to ensure we were comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The weather was beautiful and we spent 80% of our time outside. Would book again!
We enjoyed swimming in the pool and hot tub and fishing from the dock. We were able to launch our kayaks and paddle out to the bay. Communication was quick and helpful! We will definitely be staying again!
We absolutely loved this property!! This was our first trip to Crystal River and we would 100%stay here again! The location on the water was so serene and beautiful. The outdoor tiki bar/patio was AMAZING and so special. But our favorite has to be the huge screened area with the pool and hot tub. It was so nice to have that right out back for the kids. I could easily watch them from inside if I needed to be working or if we were preparing food. It was also great to sit out there and have our meals in the breeze BUG FREE!! The location was so great for restaurants and shopping too. The host provided many extras like extra paper products and coffee pods. Having the kayaks was my absolute favorite. We paddled all the way to Three Sisters and it was amazing!! And we saw manatee and jumping fish off our dock! We were honestly a bit disappointed that we never saw a gator… Lizards were everywhere and so fun to watch. We even saw a black racer snake (non-venomous). The abundance of wildlife was a favorite for all of us. To top it off the management company was top tier! They provided a number for texting and responded within minutes to any message. I would highly recommend this property to anyone!
My wife and I had a great time over the holiday weekend. Invited friends over for the day to kayak and have dinner and drinks by the fire pit on the water. Excellent communication with the owner and had no issues. Wife enjoyed the hot tub while I sat by the water and practiced my guitar. Couldn’t have been a better mini vacation. Highly recommend.
Had a wonderful stay, and appreciated the personal interest & interactions with Rebecca. Coupled with great weather and the Crystal River area mostly back from the hurricane, highly recommend a visit. The backyard Tiki bar, pool, and hot tub is a great combination... spent much time there. Had breakfast by the canal most days.
Wish the kitchen was a little larger and the welcome book had a tad more info, eg, operating the tvs. That said, one of our best VRBO experiences. Gary & Deb
3 days for family vacation, we utilized the kayaks , media space and the pool. We were able to see a couple of manatees off of the dock and lots of fish. Great property, we would absolutely stay here again.
Property is located in an ideal spot, quiet neighborhood, three minutes to grocery store, and three to ten minutes to several restaurants. We enjoyed the pool and being on the canal to watch the manatee. Really enjoyed the outdoor kitchen.
We had a great time renting this house. The location is perfect to be able to enjoy all that Crystal River has to offer. The outdoor space is spectacular. The host was extremely easy to work with . Would definitely recommend this place!
