The host was super responsive to any questions we had and allowed us to have early access. We had our 20 ft jon boat with us and enjoyed the access the pier provided. We saw lots of wildlife. Having a washer and dryer on the premises was very convenient and we slept like babies.
Lots of manatees to see!

Great location

The property was clean upon arrival and in a very good location for us. We enjoyed the easy access to Fort Island Trail beach, along with numerous nearby birding locations. Bicycling was also easy from there.

Awesome host, great property!

Dixie was very responsive and accommodating after our previous booking at another place was cancelled as we were pulling into town. She let us check in early and even offered late check out as we were leaving. Rental was exactly as described!

Fantastic

This is the 2nd time we have stayed here and we will definitely be back! The house was spotless, had everything we needed (and more), and is in such a great location. Dixie communicates everything so well and there are little instructions for everything you need throughout the house. Truly a great stay!

Great location. Close to a number of national parks, restaurants, etc. There is also a nice tiny beach nearby. The house is clean and has everything we need. We enjoyed the beautiful water view from the deck. Will definitely come back next time. Last but not least, the host is really helpful.

Everything we could ask for!

We have stayed in several rental homes and by far this one was the best as far as having everything we could need! The kitchen was stocked with anything and everything you would need to prepare meals and serve. Dixie was so helful and responsive . With all the comforts of home, I highly recommend this property.

Perfection!

This house has it all. There isn’t anything that Dixie didn’t think of to have in the house. The house was very clean and had an excellent view. All of the neighbors were friendly. The dock was great for having our boat in the water for the duration of our stay. We will definitely be back again!!!!

Amazing crystal river

We absolutely loved crystal river! The location of the house was very convenient, house was clean, and all was expected except the kayaks. She had plenty too use but during low tide we could not figure out how to get them in or out of the water so we didn’t use them. It would be convenient if there was a floating kayak dock and a small platform or different stairs so that we can get the kayaks out.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 Jan 2025
It is a passion of ours to check in with the guests and assure that all is as expected.We had explained the 2 ft. difference in tide change prior to their arrival and suggested they observe tide charts. We are disappointed that, with all the care we put into them having a wonderful stay, that we would receive a 4 star. Other guests place the kayaks in the water at the ladder. We are looking into the improvement publicly suggested. Others have overcome that score with more than 100 reviews!
