Beautiful home that was clean, well stocked and perfect for our family of four and little pup. We enjoyed the pool, kayaks and hanging out in the Florida room. The neighborhood is quiet with hiking trails close by. Our host was wonderfully accommodating.
This house is in a great location that is close to restaurants, shopping, and outdoor activities. There are 2 living room areas which is nice along with a very inviting pool. Beds were comfortable and nice large walk-in master shower. Would stay here again.

Excellent time
We were looking for a place in Crystal River to stay while we did the Manatee tour. The house was exactly what we wanted, great location and the kids loved the pool.
Amazing property! Spotless and comfortable. Not a thing was missed from the thoughtful touches around the home to the basic essentials. We will definitely stay here again.
Took a long weekend trip to take our kids to see manatees. We had a great experience, great space, close to many of our activities, and owner was very helpful with all requests! Very satisfied with our stay!

Thanks much Dustin, so glad that you all had a wonderful time. Would be honored to host you all again in the future.
This was our second time staying at this property and once again it was a HUGE WIN! The house is so cute and the pool and back porch make it a stellar property. We love this home and hope to stay here for years to come for our June trip.

Great Weekend Spot
Lovely house at the end of a canal with a screened pool and a large enclosed porch. The floating dock was great for fishing and nature watching. Wonderful weekend with my kids & grandkids
This location was ideal for exploring the area. It was also great for chilling at the house. The covered pool was awesome for the kids and we all loved fishing from the dock. The kitchen was well stocked. All in all. A good stay!
We had a great long weekend scalloping and fishing and this was the perfect house! We brought our 19 ft boat and kept it on the new dock on the canal which was awesome. Kitchen has new appliances, organized cookware, and a nesspresso maker which was definitely a nice touch! The pool was great to come back to after long hot days spent on the boat. Thank you!
The property is beautiful and cozy. The views from the backyard is great and we saw a lot of wildlife! The bedrooms were comfortable and very spacious. A lot of extra amenities in the home and easy to use appliances and the pool was perfect for the days we relaxed and stayed in.

Nice Place for a Short Stay
Everything was great but could not sleep on uncomfortable bed in master bedroom. I could not stay any longer without sleep.
Enjoyed the house on Crystal River for a short stay. The one complaint is that the master bedroom bed was extremely uncomfortable. My husband and I have different preferences of the firmness of the bed, but it was not comfortable for either one of us, making it very hard for both of us to sleep. Very worn out on both sides of the bed.

Crystal River Stay
The location was great - the rest of the property is a bit run down and needs to be upgraded. One of the beds was full of sand so the sheets hadn't been changed. Needs more variety of cookware in the kitchen since the gas and charcoal grills were unusable because they were so dirty and rusted. The drain in the second bathroom was sluggish and threatened to overflow the tub. The fill valve on the second bathroom screamed as it was filling and would wake up the house in the middle of the night.

Short of Essentials
The house was advertised as a three bedroom two bathroom but was a two bedroom and two bath and had one frying pan and no pots, it also lacked things like salt and pepper and other simple items which one would think would be included. The house was clean and neat and met our needs but could be improved with some simple additions.

Hello Ken, thanks for letting us know about your stay! The owner wanted to address the items you mentioned:
- We take pride in our property and we strive to provide our guests with the best experience possible. The listing accurately notes the home is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom property and this can be seen before booking the home so guests can determine if it is the right fit.
- The home is fully stocked with pots and pans, including a crockpot, utensils and spices for our guests to enjoy. We have not received any complaints from guests in the past as these items are easily accessible.
We truly go above and beyond for our guests, and we are confident that future guests will have excellent stays!
Great place to stay in Crystal River! Nice quiet neighborhood. Good communication from the property owner. Very clean. The private pool was great to come back to after the exploring all there is to do in the area! Would definitely book again.
This house is located in a quiet canal 5 minutes from boat ramp, marine fuel and manatee charter. Easy access to the Gulf for scalloping and kings bay for great restaurants and springs. House is very clean and has two living areas inside and a large screened porch pool is a very nice amenity. The house is very livable and comfortable with a well stocked kitten and plenty of linens and towels. We will definately be back for another trip.
Wonderful home on a quiet canal. Canal was deep enough and dock was big enough for our 30’ boat. House was clean and cutely decorated. Loved the kitchen, pool, and back porch. Exactly what we’ve been looking for the last three summers. Only thing missing was larger pots and pans but definitely not a huge deal. We made it work. Hoping to book again next summer.
