Fishing Trip
We are a family of 4 adults and two dogs that stayed here for a week in October. The location of the home is a short walk to the beach. The home was clean and was efficient for our needs. We had some maintenance items come up and notified the owner immediately. They were very responsive and on top of anything we contacted them about. The only downfall was the storage space in the rooms. My husband and I were in the room with one bed and it was a tight space. There are no closets or storage cabinet aside from night stands in the room. We used the room that was being unused to put our clothes and bags. Had we needed all 3 rooms I think storage would have been an issue. I would suggest finding away to add dressers or some kind of portable closets to the rooms to store belongings.

Cheap Stay
If you are looking for cheap and no extra this might be the place otherwise not kid friendly nor safe: the stairwell going up to the main decking and front door has a huge gaping hole that a small child could easily fall through. The microwave doesn’t work. The house is very warm at night. The running water to the tubs/showers is mediocre. The house was barely cleaned for our use and definitely the floors had not been mopped..my kids feet turned black just walking around on the beach house flooring. The interior is lacking proper upkeep and maintenance Also the exterior patio under the beach house had substance dripping from pipes. Exposed wiring. The exterior house lacked a water house which would be super friendly and helpful being a beach house to rinse off beach stuff or even your kids. The exterior of the house is definitely lacking proper maintenance and upkeep. Pictures online are not entirely what you get. Our check in code was provided to us around 3 and house keeping was still on site when I showed up , what appeared to be them smoking at the picnic table On the carport under the beach house. I left to return later with the kids to find the house in sub par clean state. Again, if you are looking for a no thrills /frills cheap place to stay for the night , this is it. Otherwise , would not suggest for family with kids wanting a nice beach stay.

We enjoyed our mini vacation at the beach and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. It was so close to everything we needed and the walk to the beach was amazing. The host was very nice and answered any questions I had promptly. We will definitely be booking this house again on our next vacation to Crystal Beach.

Crystal Beach: Late Summer
We were in the area for the triathlon in Bolivar and thought it would be fun to go down a few days early to play at the beach. I recognize that coastal properties do show signs of weathering more quickly than inland properties. This home needs a little TLC. It needs a thorough cleaning, the bathtubs lacked stoppers which made bathing children difficult, and one of the rooms had very poor air flow from a/c and was not cool enough to occupy in late summer months. The furnishings are “tired” with slipcovers that wouldn’t stay in place. Prior to booking, I asked for and was granted permission to extend checkout to noon. When I got back to the house after the race just a little before 11, someone was there trying to get into the house. I reminded them that we had extended the departure time to allow us to pack up and shower after the race. They seemed unaware of the arrangement. I will likely choose a different property next time we are in the area.

Fun time at the beach
We had a great time. The beach is a short walk. The shed under the house was convenient place to stash the stroller. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and utensils. Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed watching movies on the Roku tv when we weren’t out. Ac kept us cool. Washer dryer really nice to have. There were small issues to deal with. Ac leaks water on the picnic table. Sandy bedsheets. Leak under kitchen sink. Dishwasher filter clogged with sand. No shower or hose outside to rinse off. Nothing we couldn’t handle, and certainly nothing to ruin a great time at the beach. Crystal beach is less crowded than other beaches and being able to stay so close was great.

The property was very affordable and if we had needed it, there was room for a large family. It was conveniently located near enough to the beach that you could walk if you wanted to. The condition of the property was adequate, but not up to the standards of a decent motel or most the VRBOs we have stayed at. Only about half the lights work, the toilet in the main bathroom lists to one side and bangs into the wall when you sit. There were bits of food under the table that had attracted ants. The dishwasher was full of dishes. The coffee maker hadn't been emptied of grounds since it was last used. The floor is uneven and has spongy areas that make you feel a bit off balance as you walk. The king bed is good, but the room it is in does not have adequate window covering to prevent the streetlight that just outside it from lighting the room. We tried the queen bed and that room was darker, but the bed was too hard from my liking. Like I said, it was a bargain so I'm not dissatisfied.

It was a good walk to the beach
There was a problem you don’t have bugs underneath the kitchen sink I wasn’t sure if it was a roachs are what. I wished there would have been an elevator left so next year, I’m going to stay closer to the beach with an elevator lift. Y’all might need to talk to your cleaning people about where they keep the garbage can to clean better and under the rug in the living room there was quite a bit of sand. Oh, and you’ll need a water hose out there people do use water hoses. My barbecue grill stuff was dirty. I didn’t even use it but overall my stay was good. The beds were very comfortable. Pillows were awesome but overall I enjoyed it.
