Crystal River getaway
This property is a jewel. Interior was decorated beautifully. We enjoyed every minute we were there. The water view was totally visible from the family room area. The house was spotless when we arrived, with everything we needed for our stay. Our senior dog enjoyed the enclosed fenced yard. Can't wait to return for another visit.

A Perfect Place
Stayed 4/20 -4/25. The lake house was the perfect place for the two of us to relax and enjoy the Nature Coast of Florida. We watched wildlife from the dock and enjoyed the sunsets each evening. Windy days deterred us from using the canoe except for one quick outing. Nothing negative with the house except that which was already mentioned. We would definitely recommend the lake house to those that enjoy quiet in nature and are looking for a home base to enjoy natural attractions in the vicinity, like Manatees!

Beautiful yard and house
We had an amazing stay here. The yard and house are beautiful and so relaxing. The only "problem" is the wifi is super slow (can't stream a show without it constantly stopping, can't get pics to load on internet. Not a big deal except our phone service was very limited also). Other than that the house was great. Lots to do in the area. We made use of the canoe. We saw a few gators. There is a fence post broken and my dog got out(we put it back in the ground and the yard was secure the rest of the trip. Just be sure to check because my little 9 lb dog was checking out the water while we unpacked lol). We'd return for sure. Check in/out was easy. We appreciate finding a rental that allows dogs.

Fisherman's Dream
Love the location. The home was very clean and room enough for the 4 of us to have our own space ( so to speak). Easy check in, comfortable beds, nice floor plan, good grilling set up. The neighbors we a bit close, but no big issue with that. Nice boat ramp at the dam. Less than a mile to your dock. Bass fishing was good just 100 yards from the dock. We didn't have to go far to get on fish. I highly recommend this place as it is certainly in the right location if you want a comfortable lake setting and maybe some good fishing while you're there. Nice dining in Crystal River, about a 15 minute drive. Give it a try. I think you'll agree.

Beautiful Lakeside Nature Retreat
The house was beautiful, open, bright, nicely decorated and very well-equipped, A highlight was a little bench where we could watch stunning sunsets over the lake each night. At a very nearby park there were also paved paths through absolutely gorgeous woods and along the canal were we walked, biked and rollerbladed everyday. We also enjoyed the kayaks which were easy to get in and out of the water, even when I was by myself. 25 minute drive takes you to beautiful Rainbow Springs State Park with gorgeous springs where you can swim, walk, kayak or tube, and nearby cute town of Dunnellon where you can rent bikes to ride on one of Florida’s longest rail trails. There are also nature trails, an ancient early indian archeological site, a sandy beach for swimming, grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants in Crystal River 20 minutes away. Fabulous two weeks!!! Thank you!!!
