Good place

Overall was good. Great location, very ckean and bright. Communication with Lucas was 100%.Only thing we missed was an outdoor social/eating area. There was no firepit, no actual patio area and other than plastic collapsible table, no place to sit outside. We had our own beach chairs but not real good for sitting around during the evenings.

Séjour à Family Lakehouse, Crystal BeachNous avons passé un merveilleux séjour dans ce charmant chalet de Crystal Beach. De l'extérieur, l'endroit semblait petit mais l'intérieur fût à notre grande surprise, très spacieux. Les enfants l'ont joyeusement nommé "La maison magique d'Harry Potter" (petit extérieur, grand à l'intérieur " Le logement était propre, super bien équipé (il ne manque que vos brosses à dents et vos vêtements!!) et très agréable! Il ne manquait vraiment rien, il y avait même des condiments dans le frigo, ce qui fût apprécié! C'est parfait pour une famille de 4 et un chien, nous nous sommes sentis comme à la maison. L'endroit est super bien organisé et bien décoré. La plage publique est à 15 minutes à pied, facile d'accès et l'endroit est près des restaurants, parc pour les enfants et autres commodités. C'était aussi un deuxième voyage pour notre chien Dixie qui s'est rapidement adaptée à l'endroit et elle était heureuse de venir faire des promenades dans le charmant quartier avec nous. Notre hôte était super disponible, compréhensif pour répondre à toutes nos interrogations et inquiétudes, nous nous sommes sentis bien accueillis et nous reviendrions volontiers! Merci pour tout Lucas!
