A Beautiful Home sitting on the Stunning Falls
The home offers an absolutely stunning view of Crystal Falls. During our stay, we went hinking to the Giant Falls, Devil's Slide, Artitist Bluff, and Sabbaday Falls. It was a memorable stay for all of us (two adults and one dog).

Beautiful waterfall right off the deck. Clean. Lots of room. If you arrive at night, know that the entrance with the keypad is on the left. We had trouble finding it in the dark. But very nice stay!

Wonderful and Relaxing
My sister and her husband stayed at this fabulous house for 4 days. I couldn’t go but they had a wonderful experience. The house was spotless and cozy. The waterfalls were beautiful and they fell asleep listening to the falls. They sat out on the deck with a glass of wine and dinner. They definitely will be going back and I will be joining them! It’s a great place to just reset.

Amazing stay at Crystal Falls
House was great! Clean, spacious, comfy, wonderful host and location was absolutely beautiful. I could have spent the entire week just sitting on the deck listing to the falls. We enjoyed riding our quads up the road to the trails and also trailering them to other trails in the area. Christine lake is beautiful. I couldnt believe how clear the water is. Everything about our trip was amazing. Thank you

Stunning
We lover this place, it look better than the pictures, lot of space, the bathroom is beautiful, the master bedroom is facing the waterfalls. They have all supplies you need like you are at home. The water falls in the back are great - They are called Crystal Waterfalls - After the bridge cross all the cement mural and walk on the woods pad a bit further and there is a spot with sand to relax in the water. Cold but great. Stunning house and waterfall. Thank you to the house owner for the communication and hospitality. We loved your place.
