Property was very clean, comfortable, and relaxing. We did take a kayak out, and did some fishing on the property. We enjoyed our stay at the river very much, we spotted one manatee and a gator off the back of the property when we were fishing and he even stole the fish off of the Neighbor’s Pole !We lost power one evening due to a thunderstorm, and the host was helpful and prompt to respond.

This was the most adorable place we have ever stayed at!! Our host was wonderful and answered any questions we had. We just arrived at our second vacation place (Orlando) and truly wish we could go back to turtle cove/Crystal Springs. Just a great vibe and the type of vacation get away we were looking for. Looking forward to returning soon!!!

Had a great time

Came down to do some fishing for the holidays. This place was perfect. It was nice to be able to go fishing and have somewhere nice to stay. Conveniently located close to everything we needed and didn’t feel like we where in the middle of everything.
