We had a fantastic weekend in Crystal River. The house was perfectly appointed for our large crew (10 adults and 2 toddlers and 2 dogs). We loved the pool, game room, and large yard. We were able to tie our boat up to the dock which was very convenient as well. The living areas were huge and had everything we needed. We all wish we could have stayed another day or two, and would definitely come back.

What a beautiful house! Spacious- with a wonderful layout for a big group- and well stocked with everything we needed. Kayaks, floats, beach towels- they had it all! The game room was perfect for when the weather kept us off the water. The open kitchen/dining area is perfect for hanging out. The kitchen had everything we needed, making it easy to eat in. Having the extra fridge in the suite bedroom was super helpful.The location is great- close to the springs and the gulf.Highly recommended!

Beautiful home right on Crystal River with plenty of amenities to enjoy without using the car (pool, kayaks, bikes), but close enough to enjoy historic Crystal River shops and restaurants. The kitchen was very well stocked. The owner/host was personable and handled the few small issues quickly!

It was the perfect place to completely relax for a week and that’s just what we did. We swam every day. The pool was big enough to really swim in and it was warm. Loved watching the river and the wildlife. A real kick back experience.
Wonderful picture-window dining view across Crystal River.
