Expansive Crystal River waterfront estate

My family had a wonderful stay over Christmas. The estate is absolutely beautiful—exceptionally spacious, with a calm, elegant atmosphere and thoughtfully appointed holiday décor. The tall, beautifully decorated Christmas tree added a warm, festive touch. The kitchen was a true highlight and exceptionally well equipped, with everything needed to host a lovely meal, including ample platters, serving bowls, and entertaining pieces. The large living room, game room, TV room, and outdoor lanai offered ideal spaces to gather together while also making it easy to enjoy quiet moments apart. Robyn and Steve were warm, attentive, and consistently responsive, ensuring the stay felt seamless from start to finish. The location is excellent, with shopping, dining, and grocery stores close by, and we enjoyed our stay so much that we’ve already made plans to return next year. Thank you, Robyn and Steve, for a truly memorable holiday.

This is the second time that we stayed at this location. Great location, great house for the whole family. Highly recommend it.

Check-in went smoothly. The house was very well stocked. We all very much enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very responsive.

We absolutely loved our stay. Group of 10. Spent the week in the pool and fishing. The host are lovely. We had no issues and the home was clean when we got here. Tower fans in most bedrooms, a huge plus.

The house was so big and spacious. Grandboys loved the game room, the pool and fishing in the ponds. Kitchen is well equipped for everything we needed. Close to several areas we wanted to see. We went to Three Sisters Springs and played in the most beautiful clear water. We saw one Manatee and Dolphins, as well as alligators. Robyn and Steve were wonderful and so helpful. They were available for anything we needed or had questions. We hope to go back again!!

The house was great for a large group, close to all the springs. Steve and Robin were so helpful and quick to get back to us. Would definitely stay again.

The Plantation House was perfect for our extra large family vacation!!! We felt very welcomed from the moment we entered and read a personal note accompanied by a nice bottle of wine. We had everything we needed for cooking family meals every night and the necessary extra refrigerator. The beautiful and well kept pool as well as the stocked game room kept us entertained at home when we weren’t enjoying the local attractions! My personal favorite was the “FREE” kayak club. One morning we went on the 8:00 launch and paddled to 3 Sisters Spring. I have been there many times, but never alone in the Spring early in the morning. The beauty, tranquility and wildlife viewing was simply amazing! Robyn and Steve were the best hosts we have ever encountered through VRBO and I truly appreciate their attention to their guests and property. The house and property are spacious, clean and beautiful. We couldn’t be happier with our vacation 2025 house! Thank you very much Robyn and Steve.

WOW! Look no further for a place to host a family reunion or large group of friends. The house is immaculately appointed with several areas to gather so that everyone feels like they have space to relax. Bedrooms and bathrooms galore. The grounds are a delight as well…tennis, pool, and relaxing lakes. Wildlife abounds. Conveniently located to all the fun things to do in Crystal River. Robyn and Steve are perfect hosts that cannot do enough to make your stay memorable and carefree. We’d return again and again!

Can't say enough good things about our stay. From booking to our stay.... all perfect! Hope to return next year again with high school friends from over 60 years ago. ...

We felt so spoiled from the first message from the hosts until the last. Gorgeous piece of property.. We saw otters, gators, numerous birds and fish. I can not say enough positive things about this experience.

The best stay ever
