Nice and clean place at Crystal. Only issue was for some reason the link to the address takes you to 1090 instead of 1095, so just be sure to copy and paste the address and not use the link

Perfect for me and my mini Bernedoodle for this trip. Walked to and from the beach several times, but also loaded up the car and went down when I wanted to picnic. Home was lovely and the loft would be awesome to enjoy with kids. I went for a restoration and got it!

Summer weekend getaway

My family of four and our fur baby really enjoyed this rental. It was a quick 5 minute walk to the beach with plenty of comfortable beds and great bathroom space for all of us! My youngest (10yrs) really enjoyed the loft space and the dog and I enjoyed sitting out on the balcony reading every evening. It was a great place to relax and unwind for a long weekend! The house has a very cold a/c, which is a must for my husband and oldest daughter and everyone enjoyed the outdoor shower! Highly recommend.

Great house!

This was a great beach house for my husband and I to stay with our two small dogs. Its walkable from the house but we got a permit and drove to the beach. Easy access. The house had everything we needed and we loved the cool duo coffee pot! We drink regular pot coffee so we were glad to see you could do both a pot or single cup. The house is decorated tastefully and not over the top. The beds are very comfortable. We had a great stay and would stay here again!

Not perfect but a good stay

I enjoyed my stay. Originally my 8 year old daughter and nephew were coming because I thought they would enjoy the loft. I think they still would have but I would be cautious on children going up it. I would consider the ladder safe but it would roll slightly when climbing it so I would suggest to the owner a way of locking it in to not move or to a guest to brace the ladder once it is in place with a heavy object at the bottom. This was a non issue in the end because the weather was so poor so they did not come. The first night there, I was disappointed in the hot water in the shower but the second night it was fine. Not sure what the difference was but the first night I would not have considered it hot necessarily. I also had issues with the living room television but I think that was connectivity. No streaming service would consistently play. I only tried it that one time though so I don't want to ding on that. Overall the place was just as advertised and nice. I honestly wasn't there that much but it was comfortable. I would stay there again though. The owner was easy to contact and the house was super clean.
