This is the second time we’ve stayed here and will definitely rent it again. We’ve been coming to Crystal Beach for 30 years and this is our favorite house!
The house was amazing with tons of space and awesome amenities for the whole family. We've vacationed at Crystal Beach since 2013 and this was by far the best house we have stayed in. Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Super vacation. It was nice to have so much room to spread out. Our kids LOVED the hot tub and the shuffleboard. The kitchen had nice supplies and we just couldn’t have asked for anything better from the host and property.
This house was everything it says on the listing plus more! It has just about every amenity needed. The playground was a big hit with the kids! I hope on our next trip down, this house will be available!
The location was wonderful! Couldn’t ask for better! The house itself was gorgeous, well stocked. There was lots of beach toys already there that the kids enjoyed. The hot tub was nice to have! Beds were very comfortable! We enjoyed our stay!
This is house is truly STUNNING! From the layout, location, stocked items, to the cleanliness of the house. We will definitely be booking again in the future. Probably one of the nicest houses my family and I have booked through VRBO!
This place was perfect for our fall women’s group prayer retreat. Everyone loved the location. The house has ample bathrooms which is important for a group of ladies. The stairs are quite steep so beware if anyone is mobility challenged. Otherwise the location worked just fine for our needs.
Our group travels each summer to Crystal Beach & this year we wanted a home that was beachfront. This place did not disappoint. The home was spacious, comfortable & well-appointed. The ability to walk back & forth with ease was well worth it. We highly recommend the home & will likely book again in the future.
The gates on the decks, around the yard, and to the beach access made this trip with my 4 toddler grandchildren so pleasant--Thank you! Also, the bedrooms were separated enough that all rooms were quiet--couldn't hear the crying baby--so all could get a good night's sleep--Thank you! The house and deck are large enough for my family of 11- it never felt crowded. Best house I have rented for this multi-generational group...and the working elevator----priceless!!! We will be back!
We had six ladies and enjoyed ourselves So Much!
I will definitely rent again. Next time bring family and my grandchildren!
The location is perfect and the outdoor kitchen was loved by all...
The only down fall is we could not grill our steaks due to a old grill. But do not worry, a grill was delivered the day before we left!
Several of the ladies are talking about renting it too!
Thank you for sharing your home with us!!
Beautiful house on the beach with plenty of room to stretch out & relax! Carrin answered all questions. Everyone had a fun time on the beach, hanging out inside & amazed at all the fireworks from 6pm-1:00am on New Year’s Eve!
Just wish the fireplace had been fixed before we arrived. It would be nice to have all light fixtures with working bulbs! And probably time to change the dirty Air/heat filter in the bar area ceiling.
Thanks for the memories❣️🤩🎉
We booked this house to celebrate our son's senior prom. Nothing crazy, just my husband and I, our two sons, and a handful of my son's classmates. They are great kids who are not the typical "party type" so we had a phenomenal time at this house, relaxing in the hot tub, hitting the beach, and hanging out on the deck. The generous decking, hot tub, outdoor kitchen for grilling, and direct beach access were such a win. The home is immaculately decorated and stocked with every bit of kitchenware you'd ever need. The check in and out process was so easy and our host was very responsive. I do recommend bringing your own towels if you don't want to wash/dry/fold towels before checkout. Also, if you plan to blowdry your hair, bring your own. I did not see any hair dryers in any of the bathrooms as described but none of those things mattered to us. We are already checking our calendars to plan for a future stay. This house is the best on the peninsula!! Can't wait to come back. 10 out of 10.
We had an excellent time. Supermoon over the beach was gorgeous! High tide and a coastal flooding warning meant no partiers on the beach at night. Carrin and Steve do a great job. Steve came over when we had some trouble getting the fireplace started and got it going for us. He even went out and picked up some AA batteries for a t.v. remote. Excellent/prompt communication.
Everything was nice and clean. Very well stocked kitchen as far as pots/pans/utensils/dinnerware/cups/serving pieces (I'm the chef of our group). Bring all your own food/spices. There are a few, like salt and some interesting things it looks like other guests may have left. There's a drip coffee pot (plenty of filters in the cabinet, as well as ground coffee, and a box of hot cocoa) and a Keurig, but there were only 3 pods for it. I grind my own beans and use a French press, so I brought everything we needed, but I just wanted to give others an idea of what to expect.
Bring your own parchment paper, aluminum foil, cling wrap, and Ziplock bags.
You may want to pack your own laundry detergent.
We used the grill and it worked just fine. Used the outdoor kitchen/bar to make a huge batch of fried shrimp for all our guests/family, and played the Laid Back Beach station through the Pandora app on the outdoor t.v. - we had a blast!
We would definitely stay here again.
The house was perfect for our annual mother-daughter trip. The location was perfect right on the beach with your own private walkway, and the house was simply gorgeous, equipped with everything you could possibly need and so comfortable. The bedrooms were spacious and the outside entertaining area was such a treat. We want to make this our annual home away from home every May for our beach getaway. Thank you so much for being so accommodating.
We had a wonderful family vacation at this beautiful home on the beach. Beach access was perfect as was everything about the house! Has all the amenities you need for a fun, relaxing get-a-way! Loved it so much, we booked again for next summer! Looking forward to June, 2026!!
Very nice place , very clean TVs in every room / wifi worked so lots of diff channel options with the tv An abundance of kitchen ware/ garbage cans Great lighting Comfortable beds and living areas
