We enjoyed our stay. It was only a short drive to Crystal River and the views of the lake are beautiful. We were able to bring our four legged family members with us and the fenced in yard was great for them. There are also walking trails and a boat launch just minutes away. It was a nice getaway, very quiet and tranquil.

We stayed at this super cute property as I am recovering from knee surgery and we recently lost one of our dogs. We needed a change of scenery for ourselves and our other dog. This was a perfect reset out in nature. Reading, fishing, afternoon naps, and campfires. So thankful for this little piece of heaven.

We really enjoyed our stay at Amy’s lake house. Having a fenced in yard was great for the pups and we really enjoyed the dock and water craft that they had available for us. The home was clean and had great views of the backyard.

Have stayed in many VBRO's in the US, Europe & S. America & this is number 1 for us. If you want a peaceful place in delightful surrounding on a lake & fully equipped with comfortable Beds & no stairs you will not do better.

The cabin on the lake was great for our family of five. The kitchen was well stocked and we loved taking the row boat and kayak out on the water— unfortunately all the bass got away!

Beautiful home on Lake Rosseau. Enjoyed the sunset over the lake every night from the dock. Well provisioned home. Really enjoyed the quietness and tranquility of it all.
