Thank you for the great review! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and would love to have you back. We look forward to hosting you again on your next visit!
Our entire family had a great stay. The home was perfect for our stay. The kids enjoyed the bunk room and the kitchen was well stocked. The mosquitoes were bad, but I heard this was a bad year all over the area! The thermacells we brought and the candles they provided helped a lot out by the pool. I’d pack thermacells and bug spray for the pool and walk to the beach just in case. We hope to visit again soon. Thank you for a letting us rent your lovely home.
We loved the pool and spa. The house is set up really well for a large family. The kitchen is well equipped to cook in which we really appreciated.We look forward to renting again.

Thank you for the great review! We’re so glad you loved Crystal Cottage and that the pool and spa were such a hit. It’s wonderful to hear the home worked well for your family and that you found the kitchen well equipped.
We truly appreciate you staying with us and look forward to welcoming you back again!
This house was awesome. We were in awe with how beautiful it was. The location relative to the beach was great. Super clean. My only areas of improvement would be: we had to go to a leasing office for check in which was difficult without a rental car. It turned out to just be a code which I think could have been provided virtually & we were only given 2 garbage bags so we felt bad not cleaning better. Easy improvements for a fabulous property.
This house is beautiful, comfortable, and spacious. Great location. Plenty of parking. Nice porch. Huge closets big enough for a pack and play.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Space wise for 6 adults and 4 children 3 and under it was good. Needed attention to cleanliness and not enough towels in bathrooms master had 2 no hand towels 2 wash towels. Cushions inside were not clean and Cushions were not clean outside area. Proximity to beach was not as expected. Dishes needed rewashed before used on most pots and pans. When we did have a problem that needed addresses they responded immediately and rectified the issue.

A marvelous property!
Location -- Space -- Condition -- Furnishings -- Service
All were terrific! Perfect setting for a Memorial Day weekend gathering.
The pool, patio area and porches were all enjoyed.
Rental company provided prompt service.
Only disappointment was the flooded, muddy beach access via 8th St. Presumably this has been remedied.
We used The Tent Guys service for Tent, Chairs, Cooler, Drinks, Corn Hole... a really great way to enjoy the beach without having to schlep things over the dunes.
Thank you for the 5-star rating! We truly appreciate you staying with us and are so glad you had a great experience. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
