The home offers an absolutely stunning view of Crystal Falls.
During our stay, we went hinking to the Giant Falls, Devil's Slide, Artitist Bluff, and Sabbaday Falls.
It was a memorable stay for all of us (two adults and one dog).
Nice, open concept home with plenty of space for our family. Beautiful lake near by where you can grill and swim. Convenient location to take the kids to Santa’s Village. Highly recommend!
The property was beautiful from the moment i walked in, the pictures really give this place no justice. The house was clean, beds were made, dishes were clean, and the fact that there dishes was a huge plus. The falls were stunning and the hoyse was quiet. My family and i will definitely come back. Thank you
Beautiful waterfall right off the deck. Clean. Lots of room. If you arrive at night, know that the entrance with the keypad is on the left. We had trouble finding it in the dark. But very nice stay!
I just returned from a lovely long weekend at Crystal Falls. My group stayed here 5 years ago and had a wonderful time. This time was just a brilliant. I did notice some lovely updates to the property. Well done. We will stay here again.
My sister and her husband stayed at this fabulous house for 4 days. I couldn’t go but they had a wonderful experience. The house was spotless and cozy. The waterfalls were beautiful and they fell asleep listening to the falls. They sat out on the deck with a glass of wine and dinner. They definitely will be going back and I will be joining them! It’s a great place to just reset.
House was great! Clean, spacious, comfy, wonderful host and location was absolutely beautiful. I could have spent the entire week just sitting on the deck listing to the falls. We enjoyed riding our quads up the road to the trails and also trailering them to other trails in the area. Christine lake is beautiful. I couldnt believe how clear the water is. Everything about our trip was amazing.
Thank you
We had a great stay and the house is very clean and is located next to the falls. Our hostess was very accommodating and we would definitely come again.
I wish I could find a better word to describe this property and the owners, but Amazing sums it all! Property was extremely great, owner communication was on point, property was clean and fully equipped, the views of the water fall right in the backyard was just breathtaking, we are recommending this property to everyone we know and for sure using it again very soon! Love love love it!!!
Mm
It was exactly the peaceful time my family needed to decompress and spend time together without the distractions and stress. Memories like that are priceless
We lover this place, it look better than the pictures, lot of space, the bathroom is beautiful, the master bedroom is facing the waterfalls. They have all supplies you need like you are at home. The water falls in the back are great - They are called Crystal Waterfalls - After the bridge cross all the cement mural and walk on the woods pad a bit further and there is a spot with sand to relax in the water. Cold but great. Stunning house and waterfall.
Thank you to the house owner for the communication and hospitality. We loved your place.
Wonderful location. Loved the waterfalls outside the front door. The house had everything we needed for our stay. We found our stay very relaxing and enjoyable. Just what we needed.
What a wonderful weekend we had. The house was just as pictured on line and comfortable for all of us. The eclipse was the reason for being there and it did not disappoint. The weather was perfect, the falls were running fast and beautiful. Thank you Diane, we made some great memories.
Property is very comfortable and the location is incredible. Loved falling asleep to the sound of the waterfall! Perfect jump off point for exploring the area with the rv, and my husband really enjoyed the fishing opportunities.
This is a magical place . The river has a relaxing view with a calming white noise of the falls. Great place i would recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy nature and relax.
