Lovely little bungalow

We stayed here for a week and had a wonderful time! The house was clean and cute with lots of nice touches, like comfortable beds, a basket of toys, board games, plenty of places to sit, and of course the saltwater pool out back. Annie was very responsive. We highly recommend this property!

Convenient location and value

Property located in a convenient location and the value of rental with the private pool is worth it. Owner readily available to speak to with any questions. Comfortable beds, good A/C, all the needed supplies for a weeks stay. Off season in July so not a tremendous amount of traffic and people. Close to all attractions in and near Crystal River; kayaking, excursions, swimming, beach...if you decide to go to Tampa area...use the toll road for access as rt 19 is horrible with traffic and stop lights...worth the stay here.

Good overall with some hiccups

The house was very convenient to the three sisters springs which was why we were in town-to see the manatees. We did not have the door code at check in but I was able to get in contact with the host after a few tries and get in. She said VRBO is supposed to send check in info but they did not. It was generally clean with the exception of some hairs from pets and people and not the cleanest shower curtain, but nothing terrible. The updates to the old house are pretty effective and good. Some things are inconvenient however like only one bathroom, the shower rod that has a divot that all the hooks get stuck in, and the high pressure in the cute but shallow bathroom sink that sprays water everywhere on the wooden counter and backsplash if you aren’t super careful. We didn’t use the pool due to a short stay. There were a lot of leaves in it... I don’t really see how it can be kept perfectly clean though since there are so many nice trees around! The area out back was nice and peaceful. For the one who slept on the pull out couch, we really appreciated the mattress pad and sheets right there handy. Drawbacks of that room are that the curtains don’t cover the whole windows and the pool equipment is kind of loud and annoying at night but not enough to keep someone awake.

Family get away

Great place for a family to stay in Crystal River. Beautifully decorated but also kid friendly. Kids toys and pool were a plus! Comfy beds. We loved going to Guyers Ice Cream, Fort Island Beach, and the splash pad downtown. To top it all off very kind neighbors helped us jump our car when the battery died. We’d stay here again!

So comfortable

Thank you for making this home so cozy. We went to many places by car from the house but aside from the road construction we could have walked to stores. We loved the setting. Great coffee too! We loved your choice. The only thing lacking was a way to put our feet up after a long day. That would have been great.

Me and my family recently stayed at this residence. The house was amazing; it had loads of space but still felt super cozy. The beds are of excellent quality; the wifi is fantastic; a fabulous kitchen, and the TVs and board games added some great entertainment during the evening. The pool was great and added some great relaxation and refreshment. The house was also super close to everything, and we never needed to spend more than 5 minutes in the car.

Nice clean house and quiet neighborhood!

Enjoyable stay! The house was very clean and in a quiet neighborhood. The house was just as pictured. The furnishings were nice, although not comfortable. My only suggestion would be for a table and chairs to be outside for dining outside as well as a garbage can. The outside furniture wasn’t super comfortable either, however we sat out there almost the entire time and a good time was had nonetheless.

Perfect location

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the vacation property. The location also proved to be incredibly convenient. Within a short distance, there were several popular attractions and amenities, ensuring that I had everything I needed for an unforgettable vacation. Whether it was exploring nearby hiking trails, indulging in local cuisine at charming restaurants or checking out the local springs, I found myself spoiled for choice. The owners of the property were incredibly hospitable and attentive. They went above and beyond to ensure that I felt welcomed and had everything I needed throughout my stay. Their local knowledge was invaluable, as they provided excellent recommendations for nearby activities and attractions, making my vacation even more memorable.

Hi! My name is Annie and my husband is Jason. We are both business professionals. We have a daughter and 3 friendly dogs.

We love vacationing in Crystal River, FL. Three Sisters Springs is a magical place and we love the gentle natured manatees.
