Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Crystal River

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Wonderful Stay! I had an amazing time staying at this place! The home was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and beautifully maintained. The location was perfect, close to 3 sisters springs Check-in was seamless, and communication with the host was quick and helpful throughout. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like Pool table fire place I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area, and I’d love to stay here again in the future. Thanks again for a fantastic stay!

The host staff was excellent- very responsive and informative! The property was very private, clean, and comfortable. The host provided every basic amenity needed - coffee, coffee filters, silverware, cooking utensils, pots & pans, etc. There was plenty of toilet paper & paper towels, regular towels, & beach towels. There are also most of the toys you’ll want to- fishing gear, pool toys, & swim gear. We enjoyed our stay!

Our family of 8 stayed at the house for 6 days while we swam with the manatees, visited Weeki Wachee, spent a day at Silver Springs, enjoyed an airboat ride, and enjoyed some beach days. Everything is a super easy and reasonable drive, making the house a perfect central location. The house is lovely and cozy. There was plenty of space for the 8 of us! Oddly enough, I was toying between staying at a Hampton Inn or an Airbnb, but the Hampton Inn was right at the entrance of where you get to the house and I’m so grateful we stayed at Anthony and Shauna’s place instead! Highly highly recommend!

Sandra’s place was a great place for my teenage son and his friend. They loved the fact that they could go kayaking and fishing off the dock any time. The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed and more to cook during our stay. All of the springs that we wanted to visit were close by. This was our second trip to Crystal River and we just simply love it. Any questions or concerns were addressed immediately by Sandra and she was a wonderful host.

Peaceful and relaxing stay! We also got a couple great recommendations from Nikki for lunch! The whole area is beautiful and the house was clean and decorated very cute. Would love to stay again when we are in the area! Hoping to come back when the manners are more in season.

We absolutely loved this stay! Maria really thought of everything. Whether it was charging stations, kitchen supplies, flashlights, or dog bowls.. one of our favorite air bnbs to date! The game room was very clean and organized. We played a mean game of family fusbol and had s’mores by the fire. Springs are super close and great food at local pup friendly restaurants on the water. Such a beautiful property and home. We will be back!

Vicki’s place was so peaceful and relaxing. She thought of everything to make it comfy and homelike. We enjoyed taking the kayaks and exploring the springs and then coming back to cook on the grill and sit by the fire.

Kristen's place was just as described. A cute little bungalow with access to King's Bay a short walk away. We were able to launch our kayaks and spend a relaxing weekend on the water. Lots of local restaurants and bars within a 5–10-minute drive. Will be looking to stay here again next time we visit Crystal River.

Great house in the Villages close to many great restaurants. I loved the ability to swim in a private beautiful pool every morning. I highly recommend!

We stayed here with our two dachshund pups and it’s been great, the host is very nice and the pool area with the hot tub is very relaxing , our pups was safe with the screen enclosure which is very important, we get to meet Erika and her son , and not to forget her yellow lab that peeks from her sliding door every now and then .. we only stay for 3 nights but it’s was nice and comfortable.. we will definitely book again .. thank you Erika 😇🙏

Sandra’s house was absolutely perfect. Beautiful, clean, and cozy — exactly what we were looking for. Every detail was thoughtfully prepared, and you can tell the space is cared for with love. The location was great, and everything worked flawlessly. Sandra was also an amazing host — kind, responsive, and made everything incredibly easy for us. We truly felt at home and would 100% stay here again. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our stay! The place was as advertised and the pool area was great. The home has easy access to the river and is close to nearby springs.

The house is beautiful and spacious. The decoration and distribution of the areas is very beautiful and you can tell that it is well thought out. It has all the utensils you may need in the kitchen. The check-in was easy and everything was very clean. The pool is large and the view of the lake gives it a plus. The lakeside area is excellent for relaxing. The grill was in excellent condition. If you are looking for tranquillity, connecting with nature and spending a good weekend with your family is the perfect place. Pinay was a very good hostess, we would definitely come back.

My partner and I stayed here for a week, Christopher was king enough to let us extend our stay a few more days. My fur babies loved the yard, so did I! Got to watch all kinds of different birds land in the yard. Really enjoyed sun soaking in the lanai. King size bed is very comfortable. Kitchen is nice. Very close to many attractions. Swam with manatees and went boat charting, totally recommend if you’re in the area November -May. Overall a wonderful birthday/family reunion in my hometown. Thank you Christopher for accommodating my family! Would definitely stay again.

Rome’s place was excellent, it was clean, beautiful, and comfortable. It was also quiet and peaceful. We loved the pool. The location was close to the springs and to the grocery store. Rome was very responsive, so thank you for that and for making us feel like home. I will definitely comeback!

We came into town for just a few days away from Ohio. It was a quick drive to manatees. Also very close to a great downtown area with restaurants and bars. The pool area was even better than we expected! Beds were comfy and the place was very clean. We loved our “Zen” time!

Fantastic stay at Jason’s place. Peaceful deck with nice views. Our kids loved the kayaks and fishing poles. The whole place was super clean and well appointed with tons of little extras. Located close to a beach, marinas and restaurants.

We had a fantastic stay! The home is beautiful, clean, and well stocked with lots to keep you entertained. The outdoor area is gorgeous- lots of seating, a fire pit, picnic area, and more. We especially enjoyed the kayaks and saw a manatee while out on the river. The hosts were super responsive from booking through checkout. Thank you!

The boat slip was the best part for me as I could keep the boat ready to go out and enjoy Crystal River.

Our stay was very comfortable. I can’t think of anything we would want that wasn’t already available to us there. Brit was a champ to ask questions and get a response. Just a lovely place to get away.

Great home and host, very much enjoyed our stay!

Great spot! Appreciate all the work done post hurricane season. Can’t wait to see what the host does with the exterior in the future! We had a great time.

Hi Amy, Thank you so much for hosting us! I absolutely loved the place — it was cozy, peaceful, and truly special. The horses were such a beautiful touch, and your kindness made our stay even better. We really appreciate everything and hope to come back someday! Best wishes, Maria

This was our second time staying at the Blue Sea Cow. It was amazing the first time (3 years ago) and even better the second! This time we had a private fenced in yard which was perfect for our dog. You are walking distance from the water and near everything you could possibly need. Nellie has always been responsive when we had questions or needed assistance with the air bnb. I would stay here every time we visit Crystal River! If you are obsessed with manatees like I am this place is for you! Thank you Nellie!!
