Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Rainbow River

We had a great stay! A did a little fishing, swam with manatees, hiked, kayaked and enjoying area restaurants.

Amazing host and location, would rent here again in a heartbeat.

We enjoyed our stay! The place was as advertised and the pool area was great. The home has easy access to the river and is close to nearby springs.

It was my second stay at Flamingo House. And, the second was as fabulous as the first. Immaculate/ comfortable/well-equipped home. The neighborhood is quiet with extremely well kept/maintained homes and yards. The back yard opens onto a small farm with friendly horses who visit on a regular basis. You can't go wrong and will absolutely love a stay there!

Great place: big, clean and great beds!

Excellent house on a canal that leads to seven sister springs. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook multiple meals. We saw an alligator off the back dock our first day and lots of turtles and fish each day. The house is within close distance to lots of fun activities-we swam with manatees and floated the rainbow river while there. There are multiple kayak outfitters within walking distance of the house so if you do not like sit in kayaks you have very close rental options.

My husband and I love nature so this was absolutely the perfect fit for us. It is magical. Waking up for the sunrise and seeing all the birds/alligators/ beautiful views. This house is also the perfect location- right next to rainbow springs, crystal river, silver springs- where you can rent kayaks and see the beautiful water and manatees! Matt provides kayaks at his house as well which we took advantage of. When we weren’t out, we loved using the amenities of the house- hot tub, grill, dart board. The kitchen has everything you need to cook at the house. Matt was also very responsive and gave us great advice on where to eat, where to hike, and what to do. We would come back!

A perfect peaceful escape! The cabin was tucked away in a beautiful, serene spot and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Loved the attention to detail and thoughtful touches. Joanne was kind and easy to reach. We’ll be back!

My girlfriend and I stayed at Barbara’s apartment for a friends wedding held at Silver Springs. The location was perfect for a weekend of wedding activities and kayaking Silver Springs. Barbara’s apartment was a huge value. It was not only a perfect location for what we needed, it was immaculately clean, a perfect amount of space for our stay, had a big bathroom, and Barbara went above and beyond providing extra towels and condiments just in case her guests might need them! Barbara’s place was a way higher value than you’d get at a hotel for half the price of a room for the night. Overall, we were incredibly impressed and would love to stay again for any future Ocala adventures.

We went to Crystal River to swim with the Manatees. Donald's place was only 8 minutes away. Even though this apartment is on a quiet dead end street and very private, there were great restaurants and conveniences very near by.

Steve was a wonderful host and his place is just amazing! The area is so picturesque - gorgeous, peaceful horse farms everywhere. The apartment was immaculate and so well-appointed. Very spacious with room to unpack and truly feel right at home. I loved the double closets in the bedroom which allowed more than enough room to unpack everything and lovely spacious bathroom (double vanities) also with great closet and storage space. The kitchen was perfect, finished with everything you might need, and the living room area was comfortable, homey and nicely decorated. I really appreciated all the special touches, lighting, amenities that made it so easy to settle in. My dog and I loved walking the property and surrounding area every day. Steve was so helpful and accommodating as I extended my stay twice and he went out of his way to be helpful. HIGHLY RECOMMEND - it's a dream spot!

Peaceful and clean. Located close to everything. Great Host! Would recommend and definitely stay here again.

Perfect location from 1-75, local horse farms and back roads to SR200. Clean place. Even thou Sherri was there you never heard her, very peaceful, a good night sleep.

I absolutely loved the location of the historical home - it was so convenient with easy parking available. The cleanliness and organization of the home truly impressed me, and the thoughtful amenities like snacks and water were a really nice touch. The check-in process was seamless, and the host was extremely responsive to any questions we had. But the highlight for me was definitely the amazing shower - it was even better than what you'd find at a 5-star hotel! We had such a great time during our stay and can't wait to come back. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience!

Regina was an amazing hostess, including giving us homemade chicken salad. The unit was exactly as described. The location was great and easy to get to the many activities in the area. We would highly recommend staying here.

We had a great stay! The apartment is cozy and looks just like the photos. It’s nestled in the trees and you have a view of a lake from the living room and bedroom. It feels like a little getaway, yet it’s waking distance from the Ocala downtown square. The place is clean and we appreciated the various teas and coffee. Joyce is a great, responsive host. We’ll be back!

Monica is a wonderful host. She was responsive and caring during a difficult time for my family (death of a loved one). The place was in great shape and was exactly what I needed and conveniently located to where I needed to be in Ocala. Kitchen provided needed appliances, amenities and supplies where required. Bedrooms and bathrooms were very clean with necessary linens and supplies. Ample closet space if you are traveling with more than just a carryon. Note to anyone reading this - know that the bedrooms are on the top floor, so climbing stairs are required. Consider this when booking. Thank you Monica for the use of your place.

Very neat. Exceptional clean. Loved the decor. Had all necessities required. Natalie was very easy to communicate with.

I absolutely love this Air BnB! I love the host! I’ve stayed here twice! I always check to see if this place is available when I book a trip to Crystal River! And I get super bummed if its booked! I really love it!! Clean, responsive, away from the hustle and bustle but definitely close enough to enjoy the springs!

Peaceful and scenic. Well-stocked kitchen and comfortable seating and bed. Hosts were very communicative and helpful. Right down the road from the marina is a huge bonus! Hope to stay again.

We did a staycation to the west coast of Florida. Their place is a hidden gem. It's out in nature, close to an amazing beach for swimming and sunsets. Waking up to the sunrise with coffee on the deck was oit of this world. It's an easy drive into town for anything you need. We look forward to our best visit.

Excellent!! Very clean, cute place. Natalie was helpful, responsive and extremely friendly. Absolutely plan to stay again!!
