Great place to stay

This place was perfect for our needs. It was very clean and comfortable. The water was very shallow at low tide and it would’ve been nice to have a dishwasher. But it was great for us as a home base to fish from.

A Wonderful Adventure

Very Clean; the camp came as advertised and was perfectly located in the area we fish at. We caught many big trout using kayaks just hundreds of yards from the camp. We had a fantastic time. There was one problem though,....our trip was not long enough.

The camp was outstanding except for all those steps up and down.

We had a great time, the camp was very clean and comfortable. All the appliances needed like at home. My only issue was all those steps up and down, I'm a 100% disabled Vet and the steps near killed me,LOL. I give this camp a 5 star rating. Also located smack in the middle of all the road side fishing minutes from the camp.

Access to water

Crusty Crab was in a great location. However, there was trash, high grass and non- useful débris around the lower area of the camp. Camp was cozy and comfortable. It could've been cleaner. Examples, the lower toilet had not been cleaned. Urin all around lower toilet. Air vents had mildew / mold on them. Mattress pad had gross stains when taking sheet's off for cleaning crew. Doors barley opened for entry due to rubbing floor stopping the door from opening.

Great property in the perfect location

Check in was a little rocky I kept trying the code that was sent however it would not work, I texted the property manager and they were very quick to respond but kept saying to put the same code in. I was like could they have forgot to change the code from last time and then once I said that the property manager gave me that code and it worked. MINOR issue but very frustrating at night using your phone as a flashlight trying to get in. The property was very comfortable perfect for a guys weekend of fishing. We did a charter fishing trip with Riptide and they were awesome guides! Highly recommend this property it was perfect for our needs for that weekend.
