Loved it!

We absolutely loved being on the water. The place was clean and the host was very attentive and accommodating. We got there earlier than expected and the host was flexible with letting us check in a little early! We also loved the use of the kayaks, we were able to explore the area and make stops for food or drinks. We really liked the waterfront social. We had fun swimming with manatees too! We would love to return and enjoy more of the springs!

We left the location of the house. It was right over the water and you could see it on all sides. We loved that there was a floating dock that we had access to and we love that we got to see manatees right outside our door! Both Memphis and Zac were super accommodating hosts and made it feel like home

Amazing location

Beautiful river front location with every amenity needed plus. Apartment was newly remodeled and updated, even had a countertop icemaker! Spectacular views from every window allowed us to see manatee at almost anytime of the day. Community dock adjacent to property made it very easy to launch our paddle boards. Definitely staying again next year.

Wonderful Stay - Beautiful Location!

We made a quick trip to Crystal River on our way home from Florida. This boat house location is perfect. The house is recently renovated, has all the amenities, and we perfectly clean. The kayaks provided were great! Owner is very responsive. Will definitely return when in the area. Thank you for allowing us access to this little slice of paradise.

Beautiful view!

We stayed here for a couple nights so we could swim with the manatees in the springs. Highly recommend! This property is located in the perfect location and easy to get around to the springs and places to eat. Beautiful view of the bay out of every window of the house. The beds were very comfortable and the house was very clean. The owner was quick to answer any questions we may have had. We highly recommend this place to stay and we would definitely stay here again!

Crystal River Boathouse

Location was great, right on Crystal River. Boathouse was decorated nicely. The only problem we encountered was the newly installed heat pump. It was installed in a locked room between the two bedrooms (possibly a closet?). It was extremely loud when it came on, as if it was.installed incorrectly. Actually shook the headboard in one of the bedrooms! We did let Memphis know about this. We only stayed one night, instead of two nights, because we didn’t sleep well.Hopefully, this issue has been fixed.

Just as good the second time!

We stayed here last summer and immediately booked again to come when it was colder to see the manatees! It was absolutely amazing. We kayaked, went to the spring's viewing area and saw hundreds of manatees in crazy clean water, cooked a great dinner and just enjoyed the view. This is a very special place!
