Canal-front Outdoor Oasis: Home in Crystal Water

You'll find a kayak on site at this family-friendly cottage. Crystal River Watersports Marina is an easy 14-minute walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 3-minute drive to Crystal River Preserve State Park.

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink on the porch or lanai; you may also like the firepit and BBQ grill. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

A living room, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan are featured at this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as an ice maker, a microwave, and cookware. And there's a washing machine, so you can even pack a bit lighter.
