The property was in a great location, easy walk to the beach- great view from the deck. The furniture was very worn, and sheets in master bedroom need to be replaced! Bit lots of rooms and beds so great for a big group. One fridge should be labeled for fish only, it didn’t smell good but there is separate one for food, drinks etc. overall had a great time and great location, but needs a few ungraded in the furniture….
We gifted our grown children and grandchildren a beach vacation for a Christmas gift and the Beach House did not disappoint! The proximity to the beach made it the best Crystal Beach vacay we ever planned. The house was very well laid out to accommodate our family ... and having 2 refrigerators was the absolute best! We would most definitely stay again

From the owner: "Thank you for the review. I'm so very happy you enjoyed your stay and hope you consider us again."
My family and I just spent a week at this property. There were 9 of us. We had plenty of room. There are 2 refrigerators which is super helpful. The location is perfect! The beach view from the porch, kitchen and living area is great! Dawn was extremely helpful and answered all my questions. We were within easy walking distance to the beach. I can't say enough about this home. It's absolutely perfect!
This house was amazing for a family group. Loved that it had two refrigerators. Short walk to the beach. Check in process was bumpy. The right code was not sent to us from email. A suggestion to the owners would be to install more towel racks in the bedrooms. Overall 5 out of 5 stars. I would stay here again.

This home has an amazing view of the sunrise, the best place to sit and have a glass of wine in the evening to watch God paint the skies as the sun goes down. This home is just perfect for a family gathering , to step away from all of the hustle and bustle of the world, it has the perfect family size dinner table for enjoying a fabulous dinner and family games .Book this home over and over make it your destination every year.

Thank you so much for the review and for your stay! So glad you enjoyed the house!
Owner should offer Hotel Bedding instead of what is offered. House has lift to assist with luggage and groceries, but does not allow operation of. Kitchen utensils are plastic and Teflon coated.Property manager assisted in issues upon arrival and was very helpful.With a few upgrades listed above I would rent again.
Overall a good experience. Can tell this is run by a corporation instead of an individual. There were some minor maintenance issues and some trash that wasn't picked up during cleaning. One of the bathrooms shower drains was very slow. I ended up pulling a hair ball about the size of a baseball out of the drain. It worked great after that.
Overall, the house was great. The location to the beach was awesome and it fit our 13 person group perfectly. The property was clean and well maintained. I appreciated that the outside lights were left on since we didn't arrive until after dark. The 2 fridges were helpful as well. However, there is no noise control throughout the house. You could hear everything that happened no matter where you were in the house. The house also rocked so bad. You could feel when even the smallest person was walking through the house. There was only enough silverware for a group of 8. Also, I would suggest changing out the rug in the living room. It feels like walking on a wicker basket and holds a ton of sand.
