Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Lake Rousseau

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.

Leslie's rental was exactly as advertised. We stayed for approximately 6 weeks. It was great to get away from Wisconsin's snow and cold. The back yard was a private paradise. We thoroughly enjoyed are stay.

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!

We had amazing stay at Sunny’s home. It had everything we needed and we got to have a great day on Rainbow River. Will be back!

We loved our stay at Marni's. The house was immaculately clean and had the best equipped kitchen. Every utensil you could need and plenty of pots and pans. The location was perfect for exploring the rivers and creek system. It was quiet, with friendly neighbours. Would definitely recommend.

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!

Rented for Springbreak trip and had a fantastic stay! The house was so cute, cozy, and had everything we needed to feel right at home—even the things we forgot to pack. The décor was charming and made the whole space feel really warm and welcoming. It was also really clean. We loved using the bikes and kayaks. The tunnels were just a short paddle away, with crystal-clear water and we found manatees every single time we went out—such an unforgettable experience. The location was also perfect for visiting Homosassa Springs State Park and exploring the area. I highly recommend— plan on visiting again!

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!

Great find for this side of Ocala, so close to mom and dad and I will be suggesting it for next time friends and family want to come visit us!

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.

This little house was adorable. Due to previous storms, everything inside is practically new. The entire house was comfortable,.. sofa, bed, lighting, plenty of towels, and the little deck area was cute. It is convenient to many eating establishments, basically five or six miles into town, or to a couple of small beach areas. We had fun swimming and snorkeling with manatees. It was a good home base.

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!

Everything you need! We loved staying here, was very convenient for boating out to scallop and to the springs! The loft was more than enough room and so beautiful! Can’t wait to come back next year!

Stayed for 8 Days and Loved every minute. Everything was as described and fully supplied. A secluded, relaxing and quiet location. Would recommend and will definitely stay there again. Rodger & Crystal
