Relaxing Getaway

Travelled down to Crystal River for a long weekend. The house is roomy, clean, comfortable, and decorated so cute! Owners are very nice and perfectly responsive. Property is located on a canal and was happy that kayaks etc. were provided for our use. We took a relaxing kayak trip all the way to Crystal River and back. Views were pretty. Pool is the perfect size to lay on a float and relax. My husband enjoyed hanging out on the dock fishing. Other amenities like grill and fire pit, we didn’t have time to use, but would definitely come back and enjoy. Close to parks, trails, restaurants and shopping. Highly recommend this rental.

10/10

We had a great time at Shenanigans Hideaway! Our scalloping trip couldn't have been better and our stay was very comfortable. Jason stayed in touch with us from reservation to check in and check out. He was very responsive to any questions I had asked along the way. The home was lovely and very accommodating. They had everything we needed and then some....including a Keurig coffee maker. The house was very clean and the beds were comfy with lots of extra pillows and blankets. The house is located in a nice quiet neighborhood that really felt safe and secure. It is literally right around the corner from launching the boat. It took like 5 minutes to drive the boat from the ramp to the canal behind the house. It cost 15 to use the boat ramp. We docked our 23' center console in the canal out back. Nice dock. Perfect waterfront location with easy Gulf access. It was maybe 45 mins to the scallop grounds. It's a slow go out of the canal to the river, no wake all the way. The backyard was great for hanging out after boating all day. Plenty of places to sit and relax. The dock was nice and had a great cleaning station and sink to clean our scallops and wash our gear. The pool was perfect for cooling off right on the back porch. There was a nice grill and extra refrigerator/freezer. Perfect set up! They also provided some really nice bikes, a couple of kayaks and a paddleboard. Perfect place for a family vacation or relaxing weekend getaway. Already planning to book again next year!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience. The place was spotless, clean and well cared for. It has all of the amenities that you could possibly need from a fully stocked kitchen to comfortable linens and thoughtful items throughout. The hosts thought of everything you could need. It felt incredibly homey and welcoming. They went above and beyond from the description of the property. We will definitely return and stay again.

Perfect place for our week long fishing trip. We enjoyed the convenience of having our boat docked out back, and relaxing afternoons in the pool. Host was very friendly and responsive to our questions. We will definitely be back!!

Beautiful home on the water

Shenanigans was exactly what we thought: a very well appointed home with a very nice small pool on a canal. We had a short stay to fish and scalloping. Highly recommend it.

This property is absolutely beautiful. The owners thought of everything to make our stay clean, easy and relaxing. It’s located really close to lots of recreational activities and great local restaurants in Crystal River. You really don’t even have to leave the house if you don’t want to, everything is there for you to have an enjoyable vacation. Swimming pool, kayaks, paddle boards, bicycles, fire pit, gas grill, boat dock, and plenty of chairs for relaxing and doing nothing. The neighborhood was very beautiful and peaceful. We definitely recommend this rental and will be returning to it and staying longer.

This is a 6 star stay

Last minute change in travel plans had us hoping for the best. This new property listing on VRBO has the potential to be a rebook for everyone that stays. Greatly appreciated the beautiful appointments, design, generous supplies and attention to detail. The canal dock and boat lift (we did not need to dock a boat so rules or availability did not pertain to us) are fully equipped. A resort level outdoor entertainment area is scaled to fit with plenty of elbow room. Add in the bikes, kayaks, paddle board for activities, what more could you ask for?

We booked for Memorial Weekend, and I can’t rave enough about this home. Everything was top notch! The owners Jason & Tracie are great hosts and literally thought of everything for a rental! VERY clean, fresh and new! From the home, pool, and boat dock, everything was amazing! Great communication with host! Highly recommend! Would love to leave a bad review so I can have this gem to myself haha! But definitely 10/10!
