Winter Special, Family Fun Oasis-Near Springs-Huge Yard-Game Room-Spa-EV

Welcome to Crystal River Oaks Retreat—your own private resort and a one-of-a-kind getaway, nestled beneath the shade of century-old oak trees. Set on 1.16 acres of lush greenery, our spacious mid-century house blends comfort, style, and endless entertainment—making it the perfect escape for families, friends, couples and even your furry friends.

Step inside and feel at home in a beautifully designed space featuring a fully equipped chef’s kitchen, comfortable bedrooms, and plenty of room to relax. The game room is a guest favorite, stocked with a pool table, foosball, darts, and an arcade basketball game. Outside, discover multiple spaces to unwind: a screened-in patio with a hot tub, a cozy fire pit, a charming gazebo with grill, hammocks, a swing, and an activity-filled yard complete with a volleyball net, cornhole, giant Jenga, and Connect-Four for endless fun.

Located just minutes from boat ramps, springs, and Gulf Coast adventures, Whispering Oaks Retreat is your gateway to manatee tours, scalloping, fishing, and the natural beauty of Florida’s Nature Coast. After a day of exploration, return to your private oasis where memories are made—whether it’s stargazing by the fire, sharing meals on the patio, or simply soaking in the quiet of the oaks.

**Optional add-ons; to further enhance your stay include half day stay, early check-in or late check-out (when available), EV charger activation, and a pet add-on for up to two dogs—all available for a small charge.**

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Our stay was fantastic! The house itself was wonderfully decorated and stocked, very clean and comfortable. The porch, large yard, and game room were a huge hit with the kids. Maria was extremely responsive and provided a great list of amenities nearby. The house was close enough to lots of our activities, but settled in a very quiet neighborhood. The kids got a real kick out of the wild turkeys roaming through the yard! Overall was a great experience!
