CHECK-IN is from 2:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. No exceptions for late check-in unless previous arrangements made with owners. Welcome to the Scramble On Inn! An "Old Florida" vibe in Florida's Manatee Capitol of Crystal River. The property is private, yet just minutes from stores, restaurants and the water. The cabin is located on private property with owners and security on site, yet plenty of privacy. Your cabin is fully supplied with bedding, towels, refrigerator, coffee pot, cups and silverware, AC in the summer months, and an electric fireplace in the wintertime. On site is our own Bistro Barn fully furnished with a refrigerator, gas grill, charcoal grill, silverware and all the pots and pans you may be looking for. It's a great little hang out area with bluetooth speaker setup. Outside you will find a firepit as well as a charcoal grill, a table for eating, a hammock, and a swing chair. The outside shower house is on the primitive side and made for the adventure type. It is equipped with a portable toilet and shower under the stars. It is hooked up with instant hot water. During the day, paddle your way to the beautiful Three Sisters Springs for a swim. You may see some manatee or dolphins on your way there. Hunter Springs is a great little park with a beach area for swimming and kayak rentals too. There are also several Diving with the Manatee tours available. One we suggest in town is Fun2Dive. These are all only a short drive away. You can enjoy swimming, fishing, scalloping, snorkeling, kayaking, pontooning just five minutes away, or just relaxing back at camp fireside. Heritage Village is in town filled with many hometown eateries and shoppes. It's a great way to spend the afternoon and explore downtown Crystal River. We have a variety of great one-of-a-kind eateries with many special events and festivals throughout the year. Conveniently located at the end of the street is a Publix, DG, a Mexican restaurant, and Beef O'Brady's. We also have brochures on all kinds of other great places you'll want to experience while staying in beautiful Crystal River! Oh, and don't forget to stop by Grandma's gift shop before you leave. We look forward to your stay!Welcome to the Scramble On Inn! An "Old Florida" vibe in Florida's Manatee Capitol of Crystal River.

Unacceptable Sanitary Conditions!!!

The Scramble On Inn

The condition of the place did not meet expectations for a relaxing stay. There were clear hygiene and sanitation concerns, and although it may have been cleaned to the host’s standard, the overall condition did not meet a reasonable level of cleanliness for guest use. There was visible debris on the floor, including dry leaves, and the space had an overall unpleasant and poorly maintained feel. Serious lack of sanitary or functional standards. The toilet was not flushing properly, and there was no proper sink available to wash hands, dishes, or handle food safely. The space lacked a suitable area for food preparation, which is especially concerning when handling raw ingredients. The property is advertised as fully equipped for barbecuing, which was the main purpose of our visit. However, the area lacked a proper food preparation station and sink, making it unsafe to handle food properly. Additionally, the air conditioning was barely cooling, with a visibly dirty filter that appeared dusty and potentially moldy. The refrigerator was very small and accumulating ice, which was not suitable for storing food for multiple days. Due to this lack of basic comfort, functionality, and hygiene, we decided to leave shortly after check-in. The host was not willing to provide a refund, so we had to escalate the complaint through the platform and to the bank in order to recover the funds.

Colleen greeted us when we got there and gave us a tour. The camp site was exactly as advertised. Everything was accessible and easy. There was another camp site but nobody there and even though owners are on site, there was plenty of privacy. It was the perfect mix of camping and modern conveniences included. We loved it and would definitely come back! 🙂

We had a very nice time there. Even though it was close to the host home we had a lot of privacy. And everything was very clean and nice.

We loved our time here! The cabin was perfect for the two of us. Plenty of blankets and pillows. They were also helpful with giving us recommendations on places to go. It is close to the owners home but we still felt like we had plenty of privacy.

Perfect getaway

The Scramble On Inn

Secluded yet minutes away from restaurants and stores. Very cute cabin with so many amenities provided. Stayed at the cabin closest to her house but it still felt private. Host was great and offered many extras.

The most enchanting little gem!

The Scramble On Inn

We are returning guests! This place is now our go-to when we are visiting family in Crystal River. Colleen and Eddie are super friendly folks and have treated us warmly every time we come. They just added a fun outdoor bistro area with all kinds of cooking equipment and utensils. Eddie was kind enough to lend us some extra wood for our fire. The cabin is located just beyond the owners’ house, but there is plenty privacy! Inside it’s super cozy, and the kids LOVE the fireplace! We like how close the property is to all the downtown attractions and water, yet it does not feel like you’re “in town”, though all the stores you need are right down the road (literally) and the downtown strip is less than 10 mins away. We really love staying here and look forward to our next visit. They have done a great job making their whole property feel like an enchanting experience for those who visit. The Scramble On Inn is truly a lovely and whimsical gem of Crystal River. Thanks Colleen and Eddie for your kindness and all the great local recommendations for food and fun! See ya next time!
