Near our beautiful Kings Bay and the Crystal River, you can swim with the manatees in the cooler months, fish or scallop (seasonally) in the Gulf, or just enjoy our local community with some excellent waterfront restaurants. Great for entertaining with plenty of room for the family. With 1 king bed, 2 queen beds, 1 bunk bed, and 1 full over twin trundle bed, there's plenty of space for all guests. Two of the bedrooms/bathrooms can be closed off to create additional "suites" for privacy. The 3 bathrooms offer both showers and bathtubs for a relaxing stay. In addition, the living room includes a cozy full sofa bed for extra sleeping arrangements. Electric fireplace, wet bar, and indoor/outdoor games as well. We hope you'll enjoy your stay at our lovely home. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total (up to 20 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No elevator - Single level property - Stair-free path to entrance - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina - Next to a golf course ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Locally-owned and organized tours and activities ## Similar properties ![Smart TV, fireplace, books](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/123000000/122780000/122772800/122772797/789e921c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Rainbow River!

The patio pool was great for cooling off and just gathering together. It appears to be a new on the vacation rental market, so it needs a few extras for larger groups like more bath towels and cookware. But nothing major. All in all, we had a great time. ##### Cate S.

We did have to search a bit for towels for the bathrooms and were able to find them. Location is in a quiet neighborhood. The house is spacious and comfortable, plenty of amenities and pool was a great option for all. ##### Nora L. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle Aug 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication This was a fabulous get away spot! Located in a quiet neighborhood on a golf course (currently closed, but is being maintained). Plenty of space for the family and grandkids. All the amenities were there, including extra coffee which is sometimes hard to come by! The "cocktail pool" was more than adequate size for cooling down and letting the kids have some splash time. Very close to the springs! We enjoyed a day at Hunter Springs. It's only a few miles away, so very walkable. Three Sisters Springs is even closer. Rebecca was very timely with her communication and very helpful. We would stay again! ##### Michelle Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025
