We saw manatees and dolphins right from the back yard. Having the kayaks there is an extra value and being able to kayak whenever you want was great. This was truly a once in a lifetime experience!(The listing says it has a pool but it does not. We didn't see one in the pictures so weren't expecting it, just fyi)
Overall, our stay at this property was wonderful! It was so fun being right on the river! The host was easy to communicate with and very kind. Definitely recommend this property.
Location was great for paddling to the Hospital Hole (manatee hang out) and into the state park. From the deck/patio you could see manatees swimming by, lots of birds and lots of people floating by. It was quiet and beautiful.It is about 35-40 min drive from Crystal SpringsThe property is on the canal- you can swim, paddle, snorkle, fish but there in no 'pool' The kayaks and equipment were great and easy to access.Sonia (property manager) was prompt and took care of a minor heating issue immediatley.The house is well stocked with anything you might need.We wish we could have stayed longer.I would definately book again
Perfect location! The home was beautiful and the perfect size for our family. Check in was horrible after driving 14 hours with 5 kids and we were given the wrong code, it took 30 minutes to reach the owner of the home who was able to get us in using a seperate key since the property manager did not respond to calls or messages. After finally getting in and trying to unpack we found one of the pull out couches would not open but dealing with unpacking 5 kids plus trying to make dinner I failed to contact the property manager to let her know and she blamed me for their broken sofa. We had a great time and I hate to leave a bad review but I like to be honest, don't let this deter you from renting just make sure to buy the insurance to protect yourself and check to make sure if anything is broken you report it immediately.
Loved the location. Being able to get right out on the river and the provided kayaks was awesome! The house was spotless, the beds were very comfortable. Great communication with the owner.
We had an issue in the beginning with getting into the house because I wasnât getting communication from the property mgr regarding the code. The original code I received was on Tuesday but didnât see anything after that, so when used that one & it didnât work, I freaked out but we had the problem resolved immediately upon calling. Apparently, I wasnât getting any further messages about the code change. Just a glitch but we got through it. Everything imaginable was available for use onsite. We brought a lot of things we didnât need to. The upstairs was the best. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
We traveled to Spring Hill with a group of eight friends, and the house had plenty of room for everyone. We loved sitting in the backyard and watching the river. Manatees passed by on several occasions. The kayaks were perfect! There were enough for everyone and it was easy to get them on and off the storage racks. This house is probably best for people that can use the stairs. There is a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom downstairs, but the main dining area and nicer kitchen is upstairs. There is also a lovely balcony upstairs that we enjoyed.
Bear Trail is a gorgeous property as well as perfectly located on the river. Our host Sonia was quick to respond to any questions that we had which made our stay even better. We really enjoyed the many kayaks and even rented a small boat to ride the river. We enjoyed staying here and will be booking another stay here soon. Thanks again Sonia!
It was perfect. As we swam in the water we listened to multiple people comment on how awesome the house was. The music and the big unicorn helpedâŠ. Manatees swam by every evening.
This house is amazingly beautiful inside and out! You can see everything so good from the outside 2nd fl deck. Saw a ton of Manatee and dolphins! Just beathetaking! Water was so clear and beautiful. And They have TONS of kayaks! Definitely recommend!! we are already looking into when we can rent this place again !!! Thanks Sonia!!
