The location and environment of this property is outstanding with easy access to all we wanted to do. The room was in need of some updating but was clean. The breakfast options were good if you don’t need a special dietary/gluten free option. Having flavored coffee creamer would be great. The coffee wasn’t the best. Overall, this property has a lot to offer for a fun-filled, walkable stay in Crystal River.

Last minute stay. Receptionist super friendly at check in though appeared to have been drinking significantly (I appreciate it was about 11pm but this was a surprise). Room basic but clean. Breakfast was standard offerings and nothing to write home about but edible. Location convenient.

John, who doubles doing security and night maintenance, was very helpful. The man who cleaned our room was excellent. The hot tub was for 15+ years & above was filled will children throughout our stay. Breakfast was C- in quality and, for a large room lacked adequate seating to deal with the number of guests. Front desk staff was helpful. Many hotels offer hot coffee/tea in the lobby around the clock - not so here.

They did not honor the kingbed room reservation made so far in advance and the check in made 24 h in advance. The lodge has given us a very modest room for the money and the area.

The staff was very pleasant and very helpful the room was very nice and the location of the room looking at the bay from the front door of the room. Very affordable for the high quality of rooms. There's a bar and a restaurant right next to the water which makes it so convenient also the pool and hot tub was operating so that was a plus
