We loved this house! Perfect for a multi-generational family trip, both the house and Glen Arbor area exceeded expectations. We had 5 adults, 6 kids and 2 dogs and this house accommodated for all. The outdoor living space is great, and you can’t beat the ambiance sitting right on the river. I would definitely recommend!

Beautiful home & location on the clear and shallow Crystal River. Tons of amenities- kayaks were loved most. This home is ideal for a teen floor upstairs- many beds, its own kitchen and living room. We loved that pets were welcome. Hope to be back again!

Fun for the kids and grandparents. We dropped kayaks in the water daily and ran them up to the crystal river drop point a few miles away and shored an hour later for sandwiches at the backyard. The split level living created useful spaces for both kids and adults. Fabulous place to stay and calm, safe, crystal clearwater for our four kids to stay busy!
