Beautiful home! We felt right at home! This home was by far the cleanest we have ever stayed in. The owners thought of everything, were so helpful, and responded quickly to any questions we had. We will definitely be back!

Such a wonderful place to unwind! The home was spotless and thoughtfully stocked, making it easy to settle in and enjoy our getaway. The pool was a favorite gathering spot, and the peaceful neighborhood made relaxing even easier. Friendly, responsive owners added to the welcoming experience. A lovely home base for exploring Crystal River—we would happily stay again!

Thank you so much for staying with us and so happy you had a wonderful time. We look forward to see you again!!
We had a wonderful stay at Shenanigans Hideaway. The house was exactly as expected- charmingly decorated, cozy, and met all of our needs. We had a great time using the paddleboards and kayaks, and loved lounging in the pool after time on the river. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone else looking for a place in Crystal River!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. It appears our measuring cups have grown legs and walked away. Thanks for letting us know as we have replaced them!
We had a wonderful experience and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you to Jason for making the process so easy and for sharing his home with us. Our family truly enjoyed the perfectly heated pool, the layout of the home, the dock to launch our kayaks and the kayaks that were provided, etc. One of our absolute favorite spring breaks so far. Thanks so much for your hospitality.

We enjoyed having you both and hope to host you again in the future!
We had a wonderful stay at Shenanigans Hideaway! The hosts were incredibly communicative, responsive, and helpful throughout our trip, which made everything easy from check-in to check-out. The home was spotless when we arrived, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. It easily accommodated our large group with plenty of comfortable sleeping space for everyone.The pool is fantastic! A must for this summer heat. Plenty of towels! The location was another huge plus. It was close to the river for easy access (about 10-15 min idle out) yet tucked back far enough that our son could safely enjoy kayaking (which they provided) through the canals, which became one of the highlights of his time on our trip. Idling out we saw turtle, dolphins, gators and fiddler crabs! He caught bass, crabs and snook in the canals. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would absolutely stay here again.

Wow this house had everything warm pool, kayaks, a large paddle board, kitchen fully stocked with measuring cups, blender, gas fire pits, 4 twin mattress and a blow up. Smart mirrors and other gadgets. Dining room was bigger than the pictures. We loved kayaking into the different canals so many turtles! It was hard to leave the house to get out and explore.
