This property was perfect! We can’t thank Rebecca enough for all her help when we had an issue with another house in the area that was not her property and she stepped in and saved our family vacation! This house was just perfect for us from the inside to the outside was absolutely beautiful! Thank you again for everything

One of the best vacations thus far! This house is clean, easy to get to, and the owner is great to work with. We had no issues while staying but if we did Rebecca is super responsive and friendly. We didn’t bring our boat this trip as it was our first time to this area. We will be coming back and bringing the boat. This house can easily handle a bay boat tied to the dock. The pool was clean and refreshing to come back to after exploring the area. Everyone had a great time, teenager and dog approved. We will be returning to this house in the future!

July 4th weekend

We will definitely stay here again. Beautiful back yard. Pictures don't do it justice. Upstairs 3 bedrooms, 2 share a bathroom. 1 bathroom downstairs. We have rented many places and most have bare shelves. Ex: this place had soap in kitchen, bath, and laundry, trash bags paper towels and more. Comfy beds. Nice linens. Host Rebecca is a phone call away. We didn't use the movie screen upstairs. We were too busy out back. No TVs in bedrooms but you won't miss them. Short boat ride to sand bar and scalloping. Super quite and private. I'm really picky and totally recommend staying here.

Crystal River Vacay

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.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

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!

Great house!

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!

Excellent house, great location, awesome owner

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.

A Wonderful Stay

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

Best Property Manager Ever!

Our stay was planned and then 2 hurricanes hit this area. We were so worried about the condition of the house and the area. Rebecca was amazing!! She didn’t just message me, she picked up the phone and called me after each storm with updates and to ease any fears I had. She went above and beyond and it was so appreciated. Also, the house and all the amenities were amazing!

Loved All The Little EXTRAS!

This was our second time in Crystal River for scalloping and this house was a comfortable home base after a day on the water! We appreciated the hose at the floating dock (no checking ropes in the middle of the night for tide changes!) to rinse the boat, a full cleaning table with hose for cleaning our shells, refreshing pool, high end gas grill, multiple dining table options, true black out curtains, plenty of room in the driveway, quiet neighborhood, close to grocery shopping, and a full binder of easy to follow instructions on how the house runs with lots of suggestions for places to eat and things to see. We had a great time and can't wait to go back!
