Hot Tub Haven! Steps to Bay Beach! Guest favourite

Crystal Bay Rentals - Our newly renovated cottage is the perfect place to forget about your worries. We have an 8 person hot tub and fully fenced yard! 



From the calming colours, natural light, and ultra soft linens, you will be in vacation mode from the moment you walk in. 



We are only a 5 minute walk to Bay Beach. We are located in a friendly neighbourhood, that is walking distance to dine & shop. The sunroom is the perfect place to cozy up with a book, or to enjoy your morning coffee or tea. Our dining room is exceptional for comfort and conversation. And our beds are SO comfortable. The large kitchen island and open concept living makes it a great space to entertain and catch up with friends. 



There is a back patio door that leads to our gas BBQ, outdoor dining, fire pit, and hot tub. The hot tub is great to enjoy year round. There is room for 4 cars to park. 



You will have full, private access to the house. It is keyless and contactless entry. If you need anything during your stay, we will locally and are available to help in any way possible. We are flexible on check in and out times. If you are looking for early check in or out, we will do what we can to accomodate us. Just ask ahead of time! The neighbourhood is very safe. It has a very relaxed, beachy feel. The neighbours are all very friendly. There are full time residents, seasonal residents, and other bnbs in the area. The neighbourhood is great for walking your dog, or bike riding with the family. 



We are walking distance to pretty much everything. You would just need to drive to the grocery store. We are minutes from the Friendship Trail, which is a long paved trail for walking, running, cycling, or rollerblading. Very close to the fun! Minutes from restaurants, shops & the beach! 



No smoking inside the house. HST excluded in price. Minimum age requirement is 25 years old. We are happy to host your pet as well. Additional fee for pets will be charged. Please contact for other inquiries. The hot tub is sanitized between guest, but it is the responsibility of the current guest to clean it after each use by adding chemicals.

Summer getaway

We very much enjoyed the house and the open concept. The kitchen island was great, the table was perfect to play card and games on. It was a quick walk to the beach and all of the restaurants. The only thing we were disappointed with was the backyard. We felt the pictures of nice green grass did not match the over grown grass and yard full of weeds. We did not end up using the backyard at all.

What a beautiful place to share time with family!

We loved our accommodations and we were Uber comfortable, myself, my professional adult daughter, her husband and their cockapoo puppy. The beds were very comfortable and we appreciated that there were 2 full baths. The fully fenced yard was a bonus for the dog and we made full use of the hottub. Wish there had been a hand mixer as I had to make 2 kinds of pudding and whip cream by hand otherwise, stellar.

Perfect little spot

This was an ideal little cottage in an ideal little place close to everything. The decor and furnishings were spot on and gorgeous. The hosts thought of everything even extension cords where you might want them! It was our home base as we took easy day trips to Toronto and Niagara. The little town has lots of restaurants within walking distance (if your little kids are so inclined) and cute little shops to wander. The lighthouse and Crystal Beach were lovely! The water was a great temp and I loved that I didn’t have to worry about the kids with big waves or undertow etc. We would definitely return!

Hot Tub Haven

We stayed three nights at the Hot Tub Haven over Easter weekend! What a great little cottage. This cottage had everything for our family. From comfortable beds to board games, tv and a hot tub to take a night time soak. Also there was a washer/dryer for my messy kids. When I had a question, they responded to my text promptly. Thank you for a wonderful weekend away! Can’t wait to book our summer vacation!

Great spot for a small family reunion

The layout of the cottage was ideal for our party of six staying for a few days and hosting about a dozen family members for a barbecue. The layout of the remodeled interior is very efficient. The bedrooms, 2 with the queen-sized beds and 1 with a double-single stepped bunk, were small by modern standards but not overly crowded despite the ample closet and drawer storage space. Both of the remodeled bathrooms are shared but that met our needs when the larger group arrived. The center island in the kitchen is unusually large and handy for a gathering like ours. The large dining table with bench seating along the windows could sit 12+. The large open interior centered on the kitchen was ideal for our purposes. A couple did use the hot tub and found the instructions to be a bit more involved than usual. We mostly used the large enclosed front porch as a marshaling area for trips to the beach, moving in and out etc. One down side of this location is that the beach is a 10 minute walk with a $10 fee for adult access. A rental house with a private beach would avoid this inconvenience. However, for our purposes, the location was perfect.

End Of Summer Getaway

The cottage was beautifully designed and renovated - fabulous location within walking distance to the beach and a wonderful strip of restaurants. Was disappointed to find out after booking that there wasn't a family beach pass available (as noted in the property's listing), which meant incremental daily costs to access the public beach. There was also a new house being built next door - thankfully the work was being done inside so it did not interfere with the rest and relaxation I was desperately seeking for the summer's end. Outside of these two bumps in communication, was a highly enjoyable vacation and would definitely be back for a visit!

Best in Niagara Falls Area

This is an amazing property! Beautifully decorated in a contemporary coastal decor with new furnishings throughout. It is super clean, and the hardwood floors were spotless. We loved the bright, airy look and feel of the house. There are so many little extras included from hair dryer, soap/shampoo/conditioner, and laundry/dishwasher detergent. Everything you could want is here. The neighborhood is quiet and is a 5 min walk to Bay Beach. You can walk to everything in Crystal Beach - no need for a car. Niagara Falls is a 20-25 minute drive and it was so nice to finish a day of sightseeing and drive to this beautiful, tranquil home away from the hustle bustle of the tourist crowds at the falls. (Niagara on the Lake is about 45 min away and makes a good day trip.) There are sidewalks throughout the neighborhood for walking dogs and we loved being able to take them. (After walking 12,000 steps at the falls, the strong jets of the brand new hot tub felt amazing on our feet!) The host was amazing! Very responsive and kind. Housekeeping deserves an award for the best in VRBO for sure. We can't wait to come back.

Lake Erie Gem

I’m honestly somewhat hesitant to share the secret of this gem of a property because I always want it to be available when I am staying in the area! It was the perfect location for our family visit to Canada, and we fell in love with the adorable town where it is located. The home itself is beautifully decorated and as comfortable as any high-end hotel. We enjoyed our time in the hot tub and appreciated the responsiveness of the host for all of our needs. We can’t wait to return!
