We stayed 6 nights here with our family of 6. We just wanted a peaceful, relaxing, fun vacation. The seahorse cottage was perfect. It was very cozy and clean and had everything we needed. The owner Jamie is also great at communicating. Also this place is a perfect location, Close to the beach, park, ice cream place, fishing and grocery store. There is also movie theatre and staking place but we didn't check those out. 10 out of 10 recommend staying here.

Perfect home base

This little cabin was the perfect bike base while visiting our family in Crystal. Ice cold AC, a clean place to sleep, and all of the little things you need for a comfortable stay.

Well, maintained house, with cute decorating. Just be aware this home is very small and the main bed has a bunk above it. We had three people, and it was a little tight with utilizing the living room fold out bed. Worked OK for a wedding in the area, but it is a very small place.

I'm sorry my little place wasn't big enough. I have always tried to be as honest and exact as possible in my posted pictures and descriptions with details as to the sleeping arrangements, bed sizes and types of beds. I do have a picture posted of the bed with a bunk over it, along with the size, but It may help future guests if I add exact room sizes to go with my current pics, which I can do. Again, I'm sorry my pictures and descriptions didn't supply enough detail on how small the space is and I will improve on that description with exact room dimensions for future guests! Thank you!

Crystal lake vacation

We rented a cottage with lakefront and needed more room for family. So we rented this cottage which was a block away and it worked out very well. We have no complaints and would do it again.

What a great little cottage. Our only issue was it was a little far to our family. Took a little longer to get there. But we loved the cottage and would definitely come back!!!

Charming

This is a cute little cottage with a lot of personal touches. Jamie has gone out of her way to make this feel like a home away from home, with a fully stocked kitchen and adorable decorations. The full size bed, though a bit unconventional, was incredibly comfortable and led to many well rested nights. The location is great and close to the beach, ice cream, and so much more. We look forward to returning next year.
