Simply wonderful - highly recommend

An absolutely wonderful stay. This house is better than advertised. It is well maintained and clean, modern interior and amenities. Very short walk to the beach, near everything you need on the peninsula and a fun ferry ride to Galveston if you want to go there for a day. The house is perfect for our family of 5. We all love it because it is comfortable and cozy, but not so cozy that it feels like you’re on top of each other. The host, Tammy, is wonderful as well - very easy to get in touch with, very responsive, and goes out of her way to make sure you’re taken care of. Thank you for everything, Tammy!I’d give it 6 stars if I could. This is our second time to stay here and there will be a third in the future.

Relaxing Weekend with friends and family.

I recently stayed at this charming beach cabin and had a wonderful experience. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the beach and conveniently close to stores. The kitchen is spacious, well-designed, and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The master bedroom bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. One of my favorite parts was relaxing on the front deck, enjoying the soothing breeze. Overall, this cabin offers a perfect blend of comfort and convenience. Highly recommended!

Bolivar beach stay

This was such a great stay for our family (7 if us total)- we were only there for 2 nights but it was great. Very roomy and comfortable seating for all 7 of us to spend time together. Excellent location and really close to the beach. Wish there was a gas grill but there was a great neighbor who was at his home for the weekend as well and let us borrow his. Would definitely visit again!!

This house was so precious, clean and close to the beach. Everything we needed was already there, and the host was AMAZING!!When I had a question, she was quick to respond. This beautiful home was more than enough room for 4 adults and 4 children, this is definitely a home we will return to for future stays.

We met my brother and his family from AZ here for a week long vacay. We had everything we needed in the house. Us parents loved using the porch for visiting in the evening while kids unwound with a movie after playing at the beach all day.

Family of 7 Vacay

Clean and fully stocked home from dishes, cookware, towels, linens, blankets to beach towels. Super cute and comfy! Great location! Plenty of parking space for truck and trailer! Tammy, the owner is very quick and responsive! My biggest shock is that pets are allowed and we did not find one dog hair. The beds and couch was super comfy. Everything in the house worked form the fridge to washer/dryer. We definitely will be hoping this place is available for future stays.

Home Away From Home

Location is almost unbeatable. Very close to the beach (walking distance), but also secluded enough to guarantee a peaceful stay. Everything is neat and clean. I like how the drawers and remotes were labeled. Our family LOVED staying here and they even complemented on how awesome the house was. The owner is very helpful and informative. Honestly can’t find anything negative to say. We will be a returning vacationer to this house in the near future.

Family beach vacay

We loved our stay at Crystal beach. This house was very nice, clean and spacious. We had everything that we needed to relax, cook and enjoy our family time together. It had all the needed kitchen supplies. The house is in a quite neighborhood and is just a short walk to the beach. We brought our two dogs along, too. The house has a gated top covered deck which was perfect for relaxing on and letting them play. We also loved the charcoal grill and outdoor shower to wash off after returning from the beach. Beach towel were provided as well so that was a added benefit. The host Tammy was so nice and helpful to us. Definitely recommend this beach house and we hope to visit again in the future.
