About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

This is a 3 bedroom 2 bath canal front home which is perfect for a family getaway. It sleeps 10 people at an affordable price with lots of amenities to make you feel more like our house guests than vacation renters!

The house has an open concept kitchen, dining room and sunken living room. The kitchen is fully stocked so plan to make some great meals to eat at the large dining room table, the breakfast nook or poolside. If you prefer to grill, the “grill master” can choose to use the large flat top gas grill or the smaller charcoal grill.

There is a split bedroom arrangement. The master bedroom has a king size bed and sliding glass doors leading to the pool. The second bedroom has a queen size bed and the third has a bunk bed with a full mattress on the bottom and a twin mattress on the top. There is a full mattress under the bed that can be pulled out if needed. The closet is stocked with toys and games so we like to call this the “kids room.”

The private solar heated pool (chilly during winter months) is enclosed by a spacious lanai with ample seating for the whole family to eat, sunbathe, watch the kids swim or read a good book. If the night is a little chilly you can sit by the fire in the separate outdoor patio.

After you launch your boat or jet ski from the public boat ramp across the street it’s only a short ride to the canal where you’ll find the dock with the small boat lift and jet ski floating dock. Fill your beverage & fish coolers with ice from our 250lb ice machine and you're on your way. Please note that the canal can get shallow during low tide but I was able to easily maneuver my 27’ boat to the deeper water.

Restaurants, shopping and the historical town are just a few minutes away. Crystal clear springs, nature trails and parks are close by for the outdoor lovers.

This is where you want to stay in the summertime for some great scalloping, the winter time to see the manatees and to escape the cold if you’re snowbirds and all year long for some phenomenal fishing!

Please contact me for long term rental and discount pricing depending on length of stay.

This holiday home's great location gets high marks from our customers. During your stay, you're just a quick walk from Crystal River Watersports Marina. Enjoy features like an outdoor pool. A private pool and a kitchen are available in the holiday home.

Fall mini vaca

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Turtle House. It’s conveniently located close to shopping and restaurants. The kitchen is well equipped and there were plenty of herbs and spices available if you’re inclined to cook. Also, if you forget to bring your own, coffee was available until you can get to the store. It was obvious that many homes and businesses had suffered considerable damage from Helene. It was heartbreaking to see Crystal River in such a situation but we were glad to be able to enjoy the beautiful fall weather at this rental!

Already planned vacation that happened to be right after milton. We decided to to go ahead and keep our vacation even though we lost electricity at our house and there was flooding going on. Glad we did it gave us a break from the stress of milton.and quality family time together. Looking forward to coming back under better circumstances.

Great place well equipped with plenty of towels dishes spices everything you really need for home away from home. Also The Kayaks were great everyone had a blast out on the water. The pool seems to have had a problem with a leak but it was very nice size. There were very friendly Neighbors.The Neighbors there are great and although we stayed during a hurricane we met them for a little while and they were absolutely friendly. I plan on staying here again. And the family really enjoyed it

Amazing house and location!

We absolutely loved this house. It has everything you could possibly need. The open living room space that leads out to the pool and then the boat dock was so convenient….and the master bathroom shower, ummmm yes please! We frequently visit Crystal River and definitely plan on booking The Turtle house again!

Grouper Season Fishing Trip

Excellent property that was well maintained. The commercial Ice machine was awesome as well as having an additional garage refrigerator. Great deep water access with quick trip out to offshore. Stayed in a 26' cc cat with no problems but it would be tough with a boat any larger. Weather was rough but the fishing the house were great.

Our favorite family trip of the year.

This is our third time staying at the turtle house. It was a wonderful trip just as the others have been. The house is wonderfully located to town, restaurants, and grocery stores. Plenty of space for our family with grandparents and three kids under 4. The house has everything you need for a perfect family vacation. The host response time is unparalleled. We will be returning again

Annual Scallop Trip

The Turtle house did not disappoint. We have stayed a few times. Lots to do in the area. We always bring our paddleboards to use in the canal and at the various springs. Scalloping was horrible but maybe next year will be better.

Another Wonderful Stay

Our family has stayed at the Turtlehouse before and this time was just as great as the last! We love being able to put the boat in right around the corner and dock right in the backyard. It is a long way out to the river so we always take a dunk in the pool before jumping on the boat. The ice maker in the garage is a wonderful money saver as well! We will always come back to thehouse!

Fantastic Family Vacation

We had a fantastic family vacation with our adult children. We took our boat which we were able to dock behind the house. It was nice just being able to hop in the boat and go. We caught lots of fish and ended our days swimming in the springs and or the nice refreshing pool!

Restful time in the sun!

Such fun! So relaxing! The pool was wonderful, the kids didnt want to come out. The patio had wonderful shade and fans and made a perfect place to supervise. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked easily. The grill was just fun. My first time using a Blackstone but I’m sold. We kayaked in the canal, fished, hiked Crystal River Preserve State Park, swam at Fort Island and saw manatees at Hunter Park. We had a wonderful vacation. The house was cool and comfortable and had everything from night lights to beach towels. Thank you so much for such a relaxing trip. Huge fans from North Carolina!

Great place for the entire family

We had not had a family vacation in a couple of years and this was such a relaxing spot. The pool was awesome, the canal behind is pretty and a great spot to watch turtles play, the house is well stocked, and is in great proximity to everything. The neighborhood was really quiet. The ice maker in the garage is a really nice added detail. We found the beds to be comfortable and the master bathroom is fantastic with a huge shower. Lots of beach towels are provided for the pool. This was the most equipped rental I have stayed in in a number of years. I had brought my own restock items of trash bags, toilet paper, etc but really didn’t need them. Basic spices and coffee filters are in the kitchen. They even had shampoo and body wash if you forgot your own. We had most of our own stuff with us, but the owners obviously have taken great care to ensure their renters have a comfortable stay. I would definitely stay again and reccomend to friends. There are even books and toys. Tips: go to Homosassa to see the manatees. The boat tour is affordable and you see so many animals. It is a much better deal than Three Sisters. Bubbaques has a delicious salad bar and Hunter Springs is a great place to snorkel. All of the above is a short drive from this property.

Great House with Manatee

We visited Crystal River in late March and were ready to see some manatee and relax. This house did not disappoint. Each day we saw one or two in the cancel behind the house and decided to go out several times in the kayak and into other cancels but never saw any. Then the last day, at high tide there were 5 adults and one baby in the cancel and we were able to watch them for almost an hour. It was great. The house is very nice and would definetly return for scallop season

Everything we needed!!

The home is in a great location just off the main highway making it super fast and easy to go anywhere. All rooms were comfortable.master bed 6/10 soft, guest bed 5/10 soft. Tons of extras provided like shampoo and laundry detergent that I’m used to bringing for myself. The outdoor and pool area was really nice though we didn’t use it (the noseeums were vicious!). Could use a deep cleaning but otherwise a great stay!! Highly recommend!
