Awesome place to stay!
Everything we could have asked for on this scalloping and fishing adventure with the grandkids. Public boat launch just down the road, easy access from the dock to the gulf, bait shop just up the road. Grocery stores and great food within minutes of the house. We grilled fish and scallops, kids even caught redfish in the canal between trips. Definitely recommend and plan to visit again!

Comfort and location
Well maintained and beautifully decorated home. Our family enjoyed all the amenities from the large open kitchen and living area, comfortable bedrooms, to the hot tub, dock and even the games. They have definitely spent the time to make sure everything is covered. Communication is prompt and even had excellent recommendations for the area. We had an excellent vacation and their home definitely made it complete.

Christmas in Crystal River
This house was the perfect place to call home over our holiday. Spacious, relaxing, clean, plenty to keep the teens busy, loved using the kayaks and seeing manatees and dolphins on the river. We did a little fishing, used the hot tub most mornings and nights and enjoyed bird watching from the screen porch. If we visit the area again I would definitely stay here.

We stayed for our annual scalloping vacation and the house had everything we needed and more. Neighbors were wonderful, our kids made a new friend :) we brought our 27ft boat and had no problem docking or getting out of the canal. We would love to stay again!

Perfect stay in search of manatees
My wife and I loved our stay. We appreciated all of the thoughtful decor- which focused on the local aquatic life (manatees specifically). We made good use of the provided kayaks and hot tub. Would highly recommend.

Great first trip to Crystal River
House was very clean and provided everything we needed for a great trip. It was in an excellent location for us to access the river by boat, centralized between the gulf and springs. The location allowed us to have a day of fishing, a day for scalloping and a day to relax and enjoy the springs! Lots of great memories were made. Looking forward to another trip one day!

Awesome house & location!
We had a great long weekend John’s house! He even let us know when the house was clean in case we wanted to check in early. The house is so spacious, we only ate 1 meal out thanks to the fantastic kitchen & grill outside. Neighborhood is more than welcoming. Would definitely stay here again!!!
