"Terrible. Ended up spending another $1,600 last minute to stay elsewhere. This is not an air bnb or anything similar. It’s is one child size bedroom in a rude old lady’s house. It is intentional false advertising. The “shared bathroom” clause is supposed to have you assume you will be sharing the place with the elderly woman that lives there and whatever guests she has in another room. She called us that day and corrected our grammar and was very rude. Upon arrival, we walked past a living area...

Most unique unit at Sawgrass Landing 1-bedroom waterfront condo in Crystal River

10/10 Excellent

"Such a great place to stay at. Spent labor day weekend here and it was amazing. Great environment and very clean"

Sawgrass Oasis Poolside, Waterfront Condo

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved the place. Everything was clean. The AC worked great and the host was very accommodating!"

Nature is waiting for you! Explore, relax and enjoy it!

10/10 Excellent

"I can't say enough about this unique property. Clean, gorgeous views, and fully stocked for a cook. The owners were wonderful about communicating and allowing us access. We loved the location - easy access to great paddling, hiking and peace and quiet. We are already planning our return trip and have shared this incredible gem with several friends... thank you Richard and Denne for making my birthday escape so special."

Charming Waterfront Home - Dock Access - Fishing Retreat - Pool - AC - King Bed!

10/10 Excellent

"All comments about host, home, and location are accurate. This is a VERY quiet, comfortable, laid back vacation spot. My comments are ONLY focused on the dock and water access.Bring the boat. That is my only useful comment. I did a bit of homework on the tides and water depths at the dock and in the canal; I was a bit concerned before we booked.Our 22' center console with 200 hp yamaha draws 24" to the skeg. We do some fishing/boating in fresh water, some in salt; so we tend to pay more attention to how close we are to bottom than some, I guess.As one guest points out: you will be high and dry at low tide, regardless of boat/hull. Otherwise, we were easily able to get in and out at other times. First day we got into the Crystal River on the trolling motor out of caution. After that, just run the big engine.At high tide there's about 3 feet under the keel once you're out of the little canal; you have about 2 feet in the canal.On falling or rising tides, you'll lose those 2-3 feet very slowly (of course). If you're sensitive about it (as I was); time your stay to catch the low tide at night if possible; otherwise, don't sweat it too much.If you're looking for more than 12 hours on the water each day, you may want to look for a location with a deep water dock. For most people, 6-8 hours on the water is a FULL BAKE; it is for us, including fishing/scalloping/swimming in the springs."

"Cleanliness- 10Host - 10Location- 10When I tell say you won't go wrong renting this unit for a quiet place to stay - BELIEVE ME! 10 out of 10! Host was very responsive. Bungalow was super clean and well stocked. Location was close to town but still out to avoid being in the "City" feel. I look forward to renting again next time I'm in the area."
