We had the perfect girls weekend. The rental was spotless and the outdoor living space was amazing. We kayaked every. Morning and saw plenty of manatees and other wildlife. The home is perfectly positioned...everything is so close! We would gladly stay there again on a return visit.

We had a great time at the house! It has everything a family needs for a relaxing long weekend. We fished from the dock, used the charcoal grill, and had plenty of hot water for showers and laundry!

Well stocked home with lots of extra touches. Dock was nice for our boat. Nice ride to Three Sisters Springs. Few things to consider. Stairs, up and down. If you have issues, may want to consider. Definitely bring bug spray. They are vicious.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The upstairs part of the house was a good size for the three of us. We didn't need to use the downstairs bedroom, but it would be a good room for kids. We were able to cook breakfast in the morning and fresh seafood dinners several nights in the kitchen. It was pleasant to sit out on the deck in the early morning and evening. It rained a lot, so it was great to have a place to sit outside under the covered area behind the dock. The neighborhood is very quiet. The house is conveniently located to restaurants, the excursions we booked at Pete's Pier and downtown Crystal River, and to the Homosassa Springs area. The owner responded quickly and effectively to our requests. There is a lot to see and do in the Crystal River area, and this was a good home base!

My first impression was that the home was even more beautiful in person. So many places to sit and socialize in a relatively small home. We loved the sun room with wraparound view and the Adirondack chairs in the shaded breezeway outside. Highlights included watching a manatee swim up to the dock on our second day and kayaking out to Kings Bay and spotting manatees with the complimentary use of the provided kayaks on our third day. A perfect stay!
