Wonderful stay. Felt right at home and they were able to get us the amenities we requested before hand like grill and heating for hot tub. Very peaceful and relaxing, would love to come back
The house was great! Heated pool kept temperature & well maintained. A welcome respite from a busy day in the heat. Beds were very comfortable- in my top 3 with AirBnb’s! Kitchen & bedding a bit sparse for 6 people for 6 weeks but had the basics. Use of garage was nice too. Living area spacious & comfortable. Quiet street. Chris quick to respond to questions/concerns. Would definitely stay here again-maybe in February!
Very nice neighborhood. Quiet and beautiful tress. House was clean and well equipped
Clean well located unit with great views exactly as advertised - no complaints and host was very responsive and nice - one small complaint is that Listing read as if all beds were true beds - one bed was a pull out sofa :( and not as comfortable as a real bed. Host said a bottle of wine was in unit - maybe we didn't missed it - we don't drink so not an issue - nice for Host to add a complementary bottle of win - maybe the cleaners enjoyed that bottle :) Overall - we would book again.
Positive: Lovely home! Had everything we needed. We enjoyed the pool most of all. Negative: What's not to like. If I had to say anything a keypad entry would have been nice so you didn't have to get keys but the management office was close by.
Always a pleasure to stay at one of Chris’s homes. The pool was great and having floats available was fantastic. Large roomy kitchen and comfortable beds as well as couches.
Great stay for Labor Day weekend. Wonderful pool. Huge, well stocked kitchen. We would definitely stay again!
Cozy little villa in a quiet but kinda exciting town. i loved our stay, it was exactly what we needed for our son’s bday / labor day trip. i would def recommend !!
My family and I stayed here from the Friday before Labor Day to the Wednesday after and had a very relaxing and well needed break. The home was beautiful, clean, accommodating and the pool was where we lived! The host Chris was more than professional and his hospitality is top tier. This is our second visit to one of Chris’ properties and it will not be the last. We look forward to our next trip to one of these homes. Thank you Chris.
Beautiful home with a large screened pool with large deck and comfortable seating for a large family. We’ve rented vacation pool homes several times from Chris. They have been perfect for our family events.

Citrus County
What Awaits Outside Your Door
Crystal springs, quiet rivers, and trails through untouched forest.
Three Sisters Springs
Slip into clear, 72-degree water where manatees gather in winter and snorkelers find another world.
Downtown Inverness
Walk the brick streets around the courthouse square, where local shops, lakefront cafés, and old-Florida charm slow the pace.
Nature Trails
Walk through old-growth canopies of live oak and magnolia, where dappled light filters down and the only sound is your footsteps on the path.
