A great snorkel trip
We planned to snorkel at Rainbow Springs (25 min away) and Crystal River with the springs there. Great spot! We used Kacey Kayak rentals close by for Crystal River - they were great and used a small place on the side of the road for Rainbow - close to the park. Amazing amazing area just wow! Mom, dad & 2 of our boys were with us & we brought our dogs too. The owner communicated quickly, very quickly! Which is pretty great. It was a nice place!

Crystal River Getaway
Overall great stay and great property. Comfortable beds, great AC. Only glich was that we were given the wrong passcode to get in the house and had to wait about a 1/2 to 45 mins to get the correct code.

Perfect spot near Crystal River
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This spot was exactly what we were looking for near Crystal River and the springs. The tastefully decorated home includes a pair of kayaks which was a huge plus because kayaking alongside manatees and otters was absolutely the highlight of our trip. We got to enjoy a small campfire each evening in the back yard and some good old fashioned board games. While we had no issues during our stay, Charity from the management team was very responsive. We look forward to returning soon
