Quiet getaway

If you're looking for a quiet place to get away from everything this is the place. Beautiful small town with plenty of places to eat and a nice beach. Just a short drive to the falls and a reasonable drive to Toronto as well. Our only compliant was that our time seemed to go too fast and we didn't want to leave. We will definitely be back.

Lovely Space

We loved the layout of this cottage. Lots of space but still felt cozy. The backyard space looked amazing but sadly was too chilly for us to enjoy.

Family getaway

Great accommodations, well furnished, linens and towels supplied(except beach towels). Wonderful yard to make campfire and sit outside. 15 min walk to the beach or you can drive a few blocks and still find some free parking to decrease walking distance. Beach passes provided which was greatly appreciated. Would definitely return! Thank you for all your special touches that made our stay so enjoyable. Marcie and Philip

Cozy spot right by Crystal Beach

Our family rented this cottage to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday. It was perfect and we loved how much seating and space there was in the backyard. A 15 minute walk or quick drive to the beach.

Crystal Beach VRBO

The property is in need of updating and proper maintenance. From the minute got there we encountered problems. The owner did not seem to care about our issues . TV did not have htmi cable for hook up. Back screen door was broken (my husband fixed it a bit). The backyard furniture was a mess and we had to clean it. I had to buy a plastic jug for lemonade and a working can opener. The wine fridge could not be used as it was full of mould. The owners response was " to get the cleaner to do a better job next time". We gave up trying to contact her about all the issues as she did not seem interested in helping us. I will never pay that kind of money for a 1 week stay again. It was not worth it. We will follow-up with a detailed e-mail to the owner but I would not recommend this place. It has been let go !!!

Perfect for a weekend family trip. Very responsive host. House met our needs even though neighbours are right beside you so that can be become a concern when it comes to noise levels etc.

Amazing Canadian Getaway

The house and yard were absolutely beautiful, and we had a wonderful time barbecuing outside. The host made sure that we had everything we would need and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to stay in the area! Crystal Beach is also right down the street which is a very nice spot to check out.

Golf Group

We spent 2 night at Natalie's wonderful home. The house had everything we needed to host our group. A large backyard allowed use to play several outdoor activities. Wifi worked and it was great to have Netflix for the raining days.. I would recommend this VRBO to anyone who is looking to be near a beach and have all the comfort of home. Thank you Natalie...
