Peaceful and comfortable

This house was a wonderful place to stay. It was very quiet and peaceful. Even when we saw people, there was little noise. We did a puzzle, played some games, took the kayaks out, tried to fish from the dock, read books, and took naps. There is a small beach nearby that has sand and the water is quiet - no waves. The local town is ok, but the people are nice. The beds and furniture were comfortable and the setting is perfect. The house is beautifully decorated. The kitchen has everything you need and the house was super clean. We would absolutely stay here again!

A little slice of heaven

One of our favorite VRBO's. Hubby, son (21) and I planned a last-minute trip and were so fortunate this was available. Quaint, adorable and relaxing. The pics are true to experience.Quiet neighborhood, canal is stellar, we even saw a manatee further down the canal!! Came across an alligator crossing the road on way to the beach. This place is little off the main area of Crystal River attractions but was so peaceful. Bonus: downstairs bedroom with bathroom gave our young adult son a great space when he had enough family activities
