About this property

Bright Bay Hideaway • Springs • Pets Welcome

  • Summary:

    Explore Crystal River from this modern 2BR/2BA retreat, perfectly located for manatee tours, Three Sisters Springs, scalloping, fishing, and Gulf adventures. Relax in the king suite or queen guest room, stream your favorites on the Roku TV, and enjoy a fully stocked kitchen with coffee bar. We provide beach towels, dry bags, a cooler, and sunscreen for your adventures, plus a local guidebook filled with our favorite restaurants, tours, and hidden gems.



    The Space:

    Tucked away in a peaceful Crystal River neighborhood, this stylish 2BR/2BA duplex is the perfect home base for your Nature Coast getaway. Enjoy a private backyard with space to relax, grill, play yard games, or sip your morning coffee before heading out on the water. Inside, you'll find bright natural light, calming décor, and an open-concept layout designed for comfort. Just minutes from Three Sisters Springs, boat ramps, manatee tours, waterfront dining, and downtown Crystal River.



    Guest Access:

    Guests enjoy a private entrance, dedicated driveway parking, and exclusive access to one side of this duplex, including the fully fenced backyard. You'll have access to all guest areas during your stay, with the exception of a small locked owner's closet used for supplies and maintenance items.



    The Neighborhood:

    Located on a quiet residential street just minutes from the heart of Crystal River, you'll enjoy easy access to everything the area has to offer. Downtown Crystal River, local restaurants, waterfront dining, manatee tours, and Three Sisters Springs are all within a 10-minute drive. Winn-Dixie is less than 5 minutes away, while Publix and Walmart are about 15 minutes away for all your grocery and shopping needs.



    Getting Around:

    Private driveway parking is included for your stay. While bringing bikes can be a fun way to explore the neighborhood, a car is the easiest way to access Crystal River's top attractions, including Three Sisters Springs, Kings Bay, local restaurants, marinas, and shopping. Public boat launches are just minutes away, making it easy to get on the water for fishing, scalloping, kayaking, or manatee tours.



    Other Things to Note:

    **Pet-Friendly Stay**



    Well-behaved pets are welcome! A $100 pet fee per stay helps cover the additional cleaning required between guests. For the comfort of future guests, pets must be crated when left unattended and are not permitted on beds or upholstered furniture. Guests are responsible for any pet-related damage or excessive cleaning beyond normal wear and tear. A pet crate may be available upon request, but cannot be guaranteed.



    **Exclusive Guest Experience Guide**



    Every stay includes access to our curated Crystal River Guest Guide, featuring our favorite manatee and scalloping tours, top-rated restaurants, waterfront dining, local hidden gems, and insider recommendations. You'll also find convenient booking links for activities, rentals, and other services to help you make the most of your visit. Whether you're looking for a laid-back local experience or a fully planned adventure, we've done the research for you.



    Interaction with Guests:

    We respect your privacy and want you to enjoy your stay at your own pace. While you'll have the home entirely to yourself, we're always just a message away if you need assistance, local recommendations, or tips on the best spots for manatee tours, scalloping, fishing, dining, and exploring Crystal River.
