Quick get-away
We thoroughly enjoyed our impromptu visit to Bolivar/Crystal Beach! The property exceeded our expectations. The view was stunning and the house was super comfy and well appointed. Amanda and Josh made our last minute plans so easy to finalize. We will definitely return to Corral Crawdad in the future.

We love this place!
This is our second stay at this house in a year. The location and beauty of the house makes it an easy decision to return. The home owners are very receptive to questions or comments. We really enjoy staying in this area. The Big Store has all of your grocery needs and there are several excellent restaurants in the area. The beds are comfortable and the open living/kitchen area is a definite plus! Plenty of room to visit with family. Very nice views.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful beach home is a beachfront property, so you get to wake up and fall asleep to the sound of the waves. Grab your swimsuit because the sand, surf, and sun are only steps away from this gem.

Your vacation rental comfortably sleeps 10 and has a 3 bedroom/2 full bathroom layout with tons of amenities just for you. Your Primary Suite features a King-sized bed, 55” Smart TV, and access to a private deck. The ensuite has double sinks and a tiled stand-up shower.

Bedroom 2 also has a King-sized bed and a 55” Smart TV to enjoy your streaming service of choice when you log in. While bedroom 3 boasts beautiful, custom-made bunk beds for your kids to enjoy. There's a Queen/Queen bunk and a Twin/Twin bunk, so this room sleeps 6. It also has a Smart TV. Your second bathroom has a shower/tub combo in case the kids (or your dog!) need a bath after a fun day in the sun.

You get all linens provided– yes, including beach towels too!! Your bed is made fresh for your arrival, and you get a starter supply of cleaning + paper products.

Beat the Texas heat with COVERED stairs that lead up to the top deck. Enjoy ample seating and the craftsmanship of sturdy wooden furniture on the deck. So breathe deeply as you sip your coffee each morning in one of the tall captain’s chairs and take in those beautiful, unobstructed Gulf views!

Enjoy shaded picnic tables and the bar below the house. It’s the perfect place to call your loved ones and tell them to come to the beach for a small get-together! And get rid of any grit before you go upstairs by taking a rinse in the outdoor shower.

Feel free to bring Fido (no cats, please, due to allergies) as long as your dog is under 20 lbs. and you’re willing to pay a $100 non-refundable pet fee.

What makes this property unique

For the off-season:

Read this if you’re a freelancer, entrepreneur, or remote worker! In the offseason (October-February), we cater to YOU!!

Imagine enjoying a beach view every morning for several weeks as you “clock in” and a walk on the beach with your pup when you “clock out.”

Ask us about our monthly rental rates to make your beach dreams a reality.
