Great location and floor plan -- Many disappointing details
Great house for a multi-generational family group, Location is beautiful. To be fair, house was flooded by Hurricane Helene and there was evidence of major work done to restore it on the first floor, but the items below could all have been handled in advance of our arrival if the owner/manager had inspected the house carefully: All bathroom ceiling fans are inoperative. Some electrical outlets in kitchen inoperative. Gas fireplace shut off. Gas tank lying on its side in yard. Flat top gas grill too filthy to use. Propane cylinders empty. Ditto for Rusty Weber charcoal bowl. Solar pool heater disconnected. Pool needs vacuuming. Oven temperature display has burned out pixels -- impossible to set temperature accurately. Burned out light bulbs - no spares available. Spares delivered by UPS after we bought our own. Downstairs refrigerator inoperative but repaired promptly when we complained. Floors dirty - cleaning poor overall. Kitchen isn't well equipped - missing many useful items: pans, measuring cups/spoons, coffee grinder, matches/lighter. Mixer has no beaters. Minimal blankets and towels. Outdoor lighting on river side all inoperative. LR Furniture old, worn and stained. Cheap "camp" bunkbeds in basement kids' bunkroom. Poor quality mattresses in BR2 and BR3. Mattress pads stained. Few hangars in closets. Railing post at top of stairs loose - a falling hazard. Downstairs toilet burbles when upstairs shower used. No curtains/blinds on MBR deck doors.

Great View!
Property Manager was very responsive and tried to help with minor internet issue. ( we used our hot spots/so no big deal) Great location for our trip,boat launch was easy as we put in at Petes Pier (Could almost see it from the dock) would note that this dock sits on a very very busy waterway so suggest that if you bring a boat you also bring a lot of dock bumpers as the water gets a bit rocky and your boat will move about! House was clean and ready! Check in was very easy and instructions were spot on! Pool was nice, clean and looked well taken care of. House had a lot of room and we had a great time. We saw dolphins and manatees from the dock...lots of fish jumping and sunrise was beyond words!! A few small items of note: The BlackStone Flat top grill needs a bit of love and a cover (we did not use it)! It was also out of propane if we would have used it we would have filled a tank as they had 2 others in the garage! Hammock seemed to be missing as well as the fire pit. And the racoons love the garbage :) Overall a solid 4.25 of 5...so worth it!!

GREAT LOCATION ON THE RIVER
Our family stayed over 4th of July weekend, great locaton for watching fireworks. Easy access to Gulf for scalloping. Dock was adequate for our 24ft boat. A few things to consider: Pool was not usable since the water was too warm. A chiller would be great in this small pool. Not enough bath towels to go around and oven display is broken so no idea what temp we cooked at! Downstairs refrigerator was broken. Did see a bunch of cookies smashed between the couch cusions that apparently was missed by the cleaning crew. But overall the cleanliness was very good. Definitely recommend this property. Lots of room for large family to spread out.

Perfect location
This house offered plenty of room to bring a few friends . The location was great , and the windows in the back offer a beautiful view . Docking your boat was very easy , just need to make sure you bring plenty of bumpers . If I had to complain about one thing , it would be there were very few pool towels for a house this size . We enjoyed our stay .

Lovely house and Great location
We greatly enjoyed our stay: wonderful sunrises, beautiful views of the river, and fishing from the backyard. Also, the bunkroom in the lower level of the house made for a great sleeping arrangment for my close friends as we entertained coworkers. Also, the living room makes for a great place to spend time with guests. Thank you so much!

Great property
When we arrived the door to the lanai from the master bedroom was wide open and the house was quite warm as a result. The garage was messy and the yard was overgrown. The landscaper came while we were there enjoying the pool and outside area so that was a bit of a disturbance. The dishwasher was loaded when we arrived and there were towels in the dryer. Overall, we enjoyed the property especially the view and downstairs was perfect for the kids.

Great Location!
This home boasts stunning views and a prime location just off the main channel. Our kids had a blast kayaking and fishing right from the dock. The owner was prompt in their response and graciously accommodated our request for an early check-in. Areas for improvement: Additional silverware is needed as the kitchen currently has some plastic utensils. The master bedroom would benefit from the addition of curtains. The couch and chairs in the main living room show signs of wear and stains, and they would greatly benefit from an update. The back porch screen door is torn, and the entire area could use a thorough pressure wash. While the home could benefit from some updates, it’s still nice. . We would definitely consider staying here again due to its excellent location, stunning views and suitability for families with children.

“Not too far from home” summer vacation.
We brought our three generation, 14 member family to this home for our one week summer family vacation together. It was spacious, scenic, located in a wonderful neighborhood, and equipped with everything you might need including; two boat docks, several kayaks, a pool, a yard swing, and plenty of river wall edge for fishing. The huge kitchen dining table, which sat all of us simultaneously, was the focal point of all of our activities and the location of most of our family pictures. To top off the overall experience, the house manager and house owner both responded to my plea for assistance with retrieving some forgotten belongings. This was done with kindness and promptness. We’ll be back again.

Fantastic house in a great area
We went for a 4 day family trip with multiple generations and loved it. The house is huge and the ground floor living area allows for everyone to have their own space. Views are incredible! We rent places on the coast monthly and this one is top notch. It seems like most of the minor complaints from other reviews have been addressed. We didn't come across anything missing that we would have wanted or needed, and the couple of really negative reviews seem off base. There is ample parking (we had 4 vehicles and a boat trailer and had extra room). Communication was prompt, and while we didn't have any issues during our stay Ginger responded to my one suggestion ASAP. We're looking forward to going back!

Great place for our family reunion.
The property was/is great! There were several issues that needed to be addressed. The master bedroom had two lamps, neither of them worked. We're readers, so that was a problem. We called the property manager, no action was taken though. The fire pit/place was full of burnt up beer cans and other stuff. I had to clean it up myself. Then it was great! The nice FireStone flat iron grill was completely covered in rust (gross) but after I cleaned it, it worked fine. There were three propane tanks for the grill, two were empty and the third had just enough gas for us to grill one time. Again, we told the property manager the first night (of 3 nights), to no avail. Overall, we had a great time. Mostly because we weren't going to let some of those 'let downs' cloudy up the skys. I think the property manager needs a checklist or inventory sheet or something. That part was very unprofessional. Sad how easy that is to fix. Enjoy!

Perfect for large groups
This house was perfect for our large group of teens and parents. The large dining room table provided enough room for all of us to gather in the evenings and eat and play cards. There are a few minor suggestions to enhance the stay: more blankets and towels, and a couple more basic kitchen cooking pans (like 9x13 dish), but other than that the house is situated on a beautiful lot and provides space and many of the amenities needed for a large group gathering. We had a lot of fun learning about the Crystal River area and swimming with manatees and visiting Homosassa Springs State Park and 3 Sisters Springs and kayaking with Nature Eco tours- highly recommend those activities!

Pick another property, zero efforts of upkeep
Sadly this home and view have zero support as it pertains to upkeep and maintenance. Safety obviously not important to owners as the dock has boards MISSING or loose. Main stairway handrail post very deteriorated offering no safety or protection. More light bulbs missing or not working than do. Not 1 bath fan works. No lights at all in laundry room! Exterior second level porch light not working. Screen porch screening torn and flapping in the wind. Pool not clean. Debris from previous visitors remaining. We have been renting multiple vacation homes several times per year for 20 plus years, this house was in the worst conditions we have ever seen.
