We loved the location in Crystal River. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets! The living space is perfect for everyone to gather together. Check-in was easy and the owner allowed us to check in early which made the process very easy! Can’t wait to come back.

The place was beautiful, and we enjoyed having the kayaks and other “pub” games in the lower level.

The View. the View. The VIEW! This is an incredible property. Spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable beds and reclining souches. And did I mention the view? Just don’t forget to bring your own shampoo and soap! Would love to stay here again.

Fabulous house in great location on the bay . Perfect for 2 families to share

Beautiful home that was exactly like the pictures. Very clean. Able to watch both sunrise and sunsets from the large windows, and watched a meteor shower from the screened porch. Was happy to have access to the garage so we could store our personal kayaks safely. Only a few minutes drive to town where we picked up groceries, and there were also a ton of restaurants and fast food options to choose from.

Best view in town. Tons of things for kids to do and feels brand new inside.

The upstairs is gorgeous and the view phenomenal. Very comfortable and well equipped. Had difficulty cooking steaks (no grill or broiler) and breakfast (only 1 fry pan) but was able to adjust menus. Well stocked with fishing gear, but the fishing from the dock wasn’t good. Loved the 2 kayaks and had a great time using those. The summer heat made it too hot to play pool, ski ball, etc as the downstairs is not air conditioned but would be great in the cooler months. Everyone had a good time!

Great communication with the host!!! Fast replies to my questions.
