Perfect location for manatee diving

I've been diving with manatees for 30 years, and this was the best location for doing so, I have ever rented. We had a great time.

Fishing Getaway

This was the perfect place to stay for a father/son weekend fishing trip out of Crystal River. The house was close to restaurants and amenities like Publix. We especially enjoyed evenings on the covered porch watching all the boats come and go on the river. A great way to relax after long days out on the water!

Perfect property to enjoy Homosassa

House was well stocked with everything needed and more. The 2 kayaks were so much fun and made seeing the manatees extremely easy. The house is comfortable and very clean. If given the opportunity we would stay here again!!!

Beautiful Experience

This vacation rental was clean, easy to access and affordable. My husband and I loved that we could dock our boat at the property. We explored the River and the Gulf. This was a relaxing visit. The house was lovely.

Lovely retreat

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The home was exactly as described and very clean. The beds were very high so I opted to put the mattress from the pull out couch on the floor in the living room for my kids and I to sleep on. This was very comfortable and worked perfectly for us. I would definitely stay here again.

An Awesome Girl’s Trip

My girlfriends and I wanted a nice place to stay while we explored the manatees. This house was amazing! Right on the river, kayaks for us to use, the firepit and huge screened porch, all of it was amazing. We will definitely stay here again. The owner goes above and beyond to make your stay relaxing with all the extra amenities. I can’t say enough about our experience!

Perfect Escape

My husband and I wanted to getaway for a few days of relaxing and fishing and this was the perfect escape vacation rental! We loved the spacious layout of the family room and kitchen with big open views of the water. House is very clean and well equipped and we really enjoyed sitting on the porch with our morning coffee or end of the day with cocktails watching the boats go by. Great location! We would definitely stay here again!

Location is ideal

This was the 2nd time we’ve stayed at the cottage. Love the location to the springs. We enjoyed watching dolphins and manatees swimming right behind the house. The cottage is perfect for our family of 4. Well stocked kitchen and the propane grill was a nice addition from our last stay. The kids loved going to breakfast at Florida Cracker by boat& we really enjoyed Marguerita Grill for dinner. We are already planning our next trip.
