About this property

Cottage Beside Crystal Beach - 3BR & BBQ!

Summary:

Welcome to my beautiful cottage!



My place is located on a large waterfront property - the cottage is located just to the side of the main waterfront property and has direct access to the beach just a few short steps away!



I have 3 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom. The bedrooms all have very comfortable mattresses and the bathroom boasts a beautiful marble shower.



The Space:

You'll be able to enjoy free parking on site for 2 cars right out front the cottage. There is clear signage on the property to show where to park. There is a wonderful patio by the entry door that has a great patio table covered with an umbrella and there's a BBQ as well.



You will also be able to enjoy a poker table, foosball, karaoke system, kayaks and more!



Guest Access:

Guests will have access to the entire cottage for themselves



Other Things to Note:

Please note that bed linens will be provided but comforters and bath towels are NOT provided. Guests must bring their own comforters and bath towels to the cottage. Thank you.



Please note there is another cottage located on the property, however it is completely separate and not attached to this house. The driveway is shared but parking spots are separate.



Interaction with Guests:

I'll be available any time you need

This is our second year staying at this house. The house is really nice, comfortable, and has everything we need. The location is fantastic, with tons of things to do nearby. We’ve had a great experience both times and would definitely stay here again!

Great location. Cottage was very roomy. Great family vacation. Host is very responsive and helpful.Suggestions: bring a dish rack, as there is a dishwasher, but you cannot use it.Also, bring extra tea towels, dish rag, extra face towels and AAA batteries for tv remotes.Otherwise, wonderful stay.Thank you

While the cottage was fine with a few minors, like no frying pan, door handle kept coming off back door, and no beach view,(the main house blocks it) the exterior around the cottage was a mess of hacked dead bushes, dead plants debris, the landscape was a mess, the deck was full of leaves, the BBQ was dirty and at the entrance to the driveway we were greated by a pile of garbage. A sad state for a decent cottage and a great beach. We won't be renting here again.

Loved the private beach and location. Great shower with a good amount of space. The grounds were very messy. The floors were dirty. A lot of broken items. The stove mostly worked, but it was a struggle. There are a lot of things I appreciated about it, but I don't think it was the best choice for a family vacation. It would absolutely work for a get-together of college students or 20 somethings that weren't planning on cooking and spending time together as a family.

We had a great stay at this Crystal Beach property and would happily stay here again. The house was in a great location, smelled fresh and clean upon arrival, and was comfortable for our group. Overall, the listing was mostly accurate, although a few details were slightly misleading and could use proofreading to ensure the information is fully accurate.A few maintenance updates and additional supplies would make this already nice property even better. The floors were quite sandy when we arrived, although a quick sweep resolved the issue. Several window screens were missing or torn, and almost all windows could not be opened without letting in bugs. Only one stove element was working, and the single frying pan provided was quite small. Cleaning supplies and kitchen and bathroom essentials were also limited, so guests may want to bring extra toilet paper, paper towels, and dishwasher pods.Overall, we would rate the property 4 out of 5 stars and would definitely consider staying here again. With a little maintenance and a few improvements to the guest supplies and turnover process, this could be an excellent vacation rental.

The outside of the cottage was sandy, dusty and full of spiderwebs and goose feathers. The outside had not been cleaned for a while - invest in a blower to maintain the property for your guests. Inside was good and what we expected for the price point - we had to buy a vaccume to keep the place clean of sand as a broom was not enough. The bummer was on the first night, the owners father decided that was an appropriate time to cut the grass and fire a bunch of rocks into my brother-in-law's vehicle that not only chipped the paint but broke the passanger side glass. We were able to tape up with a garbage bag before that night's storm kicked in and we were able to find a place 20 mins away to fix the glass. The owner paid for the glass replacement at the time of writting but it was a pain to deal with on our vacation. Easy access to the beach and lots of gas cannisters for the bbq. The beach was the highlight along with the provided fire pit barrel.

Location is great including your own private beach. House is spacious with plenty of room for 6-7-8 (or more). We loved the back deck and grill. We loved the ttwo fridges (one for food, one for drinks). The bathrooms were updated including a new shower with plenty of hot water and water pressure. We will definitely stay again.

This house is in a small compound of 3 rentals. This specific rental dies not have a beach view, but has easy access for most. It does have several stairs up and down to access the beach. We enjoyed the patio with grill and hope to come back again.

Crystal Beach Home Getaway

The cottage was very spacious and had plenty of room for our group of 8. The highlight of our stay was the access to the beautiful private sandy beach. The host was very responsive and helpful with all our requests. There are some minor improvements that could be made to the cottage to enhance our experience such as updating the furniture, appliances and AC system. The controllers for the TV did not work and had no Smart TV function. Guests would need to bring their own devices to hook up to the HDMI if you wanted to watch anything; so mentioning this in the description would have been helpful. Overall, these issues did not affect our stay and we would definitely return.

House

Looking at the photos will not prepare you for the location. This house is a summer only in my opinion because you would spent very little time in the house. We had a rainy weekend so a foos ball table with no foos ball, a poker table with no chips are kind of useless and a smart TV with no remote is as good as no TV. I certainly wasn't prepared to bring my own blankets and towels and I found it very odd there were no waste baskets in the bathrooms. Hopefully the dishwasher will be replaced, broken dishwashers are unhealthy. It wasn't horrible, just disappointing.

Pros:-really reactive host communication fast and effective to fix any problems you have- clean and spacious place- private beach-kayaks, boards, and sun bathing chairs in good condition - big closet with all type of hangers-Lake is wonderful, really beautiful place-climatisation works well-Shower is amazing love it!CONS-no view of the lake from this house, I thought the pictures of the nice patios and all was the one I got but it's not that one. This one is situated behind the big house so you don't see the water and not directly on the beach. Some stairs to climb to get there.-this house is the first alongside the public beach, people didn't stop trespassing, was fed up to fight with them everyday for my private beach, no fence so I bought some things and signs and made one myself ! The owner should have done and thought of that, not for me to do but eh, got my peace after that! Not as peaceful since public so close people and children screaming.-Never was able to get the TV in the bedroom working-missing some Scott towel I had to buy some myself-they were no kayaks paddles when I arrived, ask the host but told me that was all they was, so bought myself one on Amazon. A couples days later, the maintenance guys came and they finally bought some but it was too late for me, already received the kayak paddle (better than the ones they brought) after ask the host to leave it there for them and she agreed to reimbursed me the cost so that was good

Public beach distance from you. First house beside the public beach.
À part of the temporary fence I bought and made myself to keep people from trespassing, seems like all the signs already put by the owner on the balcony are not enough !
Some ticks on the beach, careful, bring your anti-tics spray deet. I just made really sure never to lay directly in the sand and check myself and dog every day and everything was fine, but good to know to prevent and bring what you need.
