About this property
KEY LOCATION TO ENJOY FAMOUS SCALLOP SEASON
Sits on a private acre of land with some wooded area and wonderful private retreats, bbq. Walk to community park with, olympic heated pool, beach volleyball, tennis courts, BBQ shared area. It is very centrally located, adjacent to the Crystal river airport and Bicentennial Park. Hunter Beach is 5 minutes away where kayaks can be rented to see the amazing THREE SISTER SPRINGS. It is an amazing experience, but you must be willing to row out to the springs since it is a good 35minutes there and 35minutes back, another way to experience the springs is to, take a pontoon tour that offers that site in its tour. Depending on the time of the year there are plenty of River Charters that offer manatee encounter experiences or simply will provide an assortment of river experiences. As per your stay with us, if you are not a woods person this is not the right place for you. If you however enjoy the sound of the crickets, the chirping of the birds, the view of a full moon, the smell of the woods and in general a nature person, this is an awesome retreat. I personally recommend as a Gulf tour to reach out to River Safaris where they host a nice GULF water tour on boat for $35.00 per person and it is about 3hours long its nice. For Golf lovers, the new CABOT CITRUS FARMS recently ignagurated..... AMAZING MUST GOLF IN FLORIDA.

Perfect location for us near local airport, close to Crystal River attractions and central to explore surrounding State parks. This listing is not "located in a resort" as listed. It is connected to private home through side entrance and noise does travel through the walls. Awkward and crowded furniture placement in rooms with no windows, but very clean with comfortable beds. Outdoor space is nice and private but well used and could use some attention. Paula is a friendly and kind hostess, very responsive and helpful.
I absolutely loved everything about this host and her property. She is one of the best hosts I have yet to deal with, she went above and beyond to make sure I had a pleasant stay. The property is perfect for a solo traveler as myself, and I will definitely stay with her every time I come up to see my parents. I had my two dogs along, and they also were very welcome and loved her great yard to explore during morning coffee. This is a perfect spot for a quiet vacation, or just to enjoy while your in the area snorkeling or kayaking ,) she’s a great host if your not familiar with the area with every recommendation you can think of, her knowledge of the area was impressive. (And I lived in homosassa 15 years, and she knew a tad more than me ,) .) five out of five stars and I’m not normally a person to review but she definitely earned a stellar review.
We arrived late on a Thursday night. Directions from our host were spot on. We had no trouble finding this location or getting in.
We were surprised to find a cozy apartment style lodging.
The attention to detail was great. Everything was very clean and the host was fabulous and always responded promptly; and they left cold drinks and snacks that were very appreciated. We also had our pups with us. They had plenty of space outside to walk around and do their business.
The parking accommodated our full size truck perfectly.
Although there isn’t a full kitchen there is; a Microwave, Fridge, and a fabulous private outside cooking area. That outside area also includes a fire pit, large Blackstone cooking top and a grill.
This location is very close to all of the fun stuff in Crystal River.
This accommodation was perfect for us and two small pups. We will surely stay again.
WE WERE THERE A COUPLE OF DAYS AND HAD A WONDERFUL TIME.

Could not check in never sent info. Looked like a dump. Had 6 cars in driveway 2 had hoods up. Was not a safe environment. Picture and reality were completely different
Nice small cozy home away from home. Paula was very nice and responded to all my concerns. I appreciated the little extra touches she did. Enjoyed my stay there.
Accommodation was clean but very cramped. There wasnt a kitchen in the rooms but there was an outdoor grill and a camper with a kitchen we were able to use. The host was great. She was knowledgeable about local attractions and knew all the best places to eat.
Went down to Crystal River with a great friend to explore the fishing and scalloping on a last minute fishing trip. This place is perfect for two travelers. We each got our own room and shared the bathroom. There was enough room to park our truck and boat. Good location off of a main strip. Our host had great communication and even left some donuts for us during check in that came in handy when we were out on the water.

The property has had a significant amount of water intrusion and now smells of mold. If the host can get the place in order it is a functional space.
Property is exactly as listed. Area is full of outdoor stuff to do. Paola is super nice and friendly and even lent us her kayaks ehich saved us like 200!
