About this property

Bungalow by the Beach

LOCATION: This updated cozy bungalow is just steps away from the entrance Crystal Beach. Likely one of the closet cottages to the beach without being on it. The open concept space and high ceilings make the home feel very inviting. With everything updated it is very clean and comfortable. The gas fireplace is great for cool evenings after a day at the beach. A fenced backyard and a fire pit provide great outdoor space for your family.

Our place is just 300 meters from the Bay Beach entrance and walking distance to many amenities including restaurants and shops. A cozy renovated 2 bedroom home with lots of space and AC. A gas fireplace in the living area is perfect for those cool evenings. The fenced yard provides a nice spot for outdoor dining or campfires in the evening.

This open concept style home offers all of the amenities from home including a fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, central air, unlimited Wifi, cable television and propane BBQ. We sleep up to 8 guests (maximum 4 adults).

Bed layout is as follows:

Bedroom 1 – Queen bed (sleeps 2)
Bedroom 2 – Queen bed (sleeps 2)
Pull out Sofa in the Living Room
Futon in the Sun Room


Outside, we have a deck with dining table and a propane BBQ (seasonally May through October) as well as a small fire pit for evening marshmallows and hotdogs. There are two beach style adults bikes in the shed for your use. We do not provide the helmets.

Only a short drive from the Peace Bridge and Niagara Falls, make this a superb location for local sightseeing and day trips. Enjoy our local activities like the historic Old Fort, Fort Erie Race Track, Safari Niagara or public beachfront parks like Crystal Beach and Waverly. Only 20 minutes away is the glorious Niagara Falls and activities like Clifton Hill, Hornblower Cruises, the Bird Kingdom and plenty of golfing and wineries!

Consider a day trip into Toronto (only 1.5 hours by car) and check out a Toronto Blue Jays game, Ripley’s Aquarium or Canada’s Wonderland.

This home is best enjoyed by traveling families and we do not make considerations for large group of young adults.

TOTAL Maximum Occupancy is 6 guests with a maximum of 4 adults. Please note this home cannot accommodate more than 6 guests due to Town of Fort Erie rules in the approved rental licence.

Great place

We had a lovely five week stay in Crystal Beach! Very comfortable cottage with all the necessities for a long term stay. The internet did have a tendency to drop out for a few mins, which could get tricky when working remotely, but it wasn’t a big deal for us. Thanks, Terri!

Beach Resort Location

Enjoyed our stay at Crysal Beach, property was as advertised. Weather wasn't great - not the fault of the host ;) Not beach weather but enjoyed exploring the area including Niagara Falls, Niagara on the Lake and, of course, Brock University for Convocation Ceremony.

Excellent Location and Perfect Home

Thank you for sharing your home with us. We loved Crystal Beach and staying here made it great. Just a walk down to the end of the street is the entrance for Bay Beach. Without the resident passes provided with the home there is a fee, but the passes made visiting the beach and exiting for naps then returning very simple. The home is spacious! We loved that is had two rooms and two pull out couches with plenty of room to enjoy the space (important for rainy days, which we only had one!). There is a great restaurant qhen you turn left at the end of the street. And a playground near the entrance of Bay Beach for after breakfast fun! The backyard is a great size to enjoy with a bbq and ptio dining set. We also had a chance to visit Safari Niagara and drove to Niagara Falls for a visit. Sherkston Shores Resort is about 15min away also. Most importantly, the water gets warm in the afternoon and is shallow and clean for our kids to enjoy and swim. We loved our stay at Crystal Beach! Thank you, again.
