My family & I have been visiting Crystal Beach for 50+ years. Here are some thoughts on Casa Dingle, survival in response to prior reviews:
1. Most cabins on the peninsula do not have TVs in each room. Or, at least the ones I can afford to rent!
2. All internet on the peninsula is spotty during holidays. It’s fine between 3a - 5a, lol, when most people are asleep.
3. I don’t think the owners spy on you via camera. If they noticed the front door was open, it’s because they drove by and noticed while checking on their other properties.
4. The mattresses were an upgrade from others I have slept on.
5. The kitchen has just about everything you need.
6. The owner immediately checked on a maintenance issue, then came back several hours later on a Saturday night to make sure his repair fixed the problem.
6. I agree there was a bit more noticeable sway, but not to a disturbing degree.
7. Most owners are a little more flexible with early check-in if the cabin is ready. But, it’s their house, so their rules. I could see where liability issues might arise if something breaks before the rental contract actually starts.
Overall, wonderful place to stay and we had another week of awesome 4th memories!
