My family and I come to the beach every summer and this was a very nice, family friendly rental. Really appreciated all of the cooking utensils, it made cooking for a family really convenient!
Great house to stay in with especially with kids. The house was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Angela stayed in contact with us for our entire trip to make sure everything was going well. I highly recommend this house and will be staying here for all future trips if available.

We appreciate you and your guests and look forward to hosting you in the future.
The house was clean and comfortable. Location was great as it is a two minute drive to the beach and you don’t have to cross a major road. The house fit six of us and it could have easily accommodated two more. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host
Hosted by Mike
Its a family affair with both of my daughters Caitlin & Loren. Everyone likes walking, playing & laying out on the beach. Searching for seashells.
I like spending time with my family & all the grandchildren.
We all Love being near the water it's so relaxing
Why they chose this property
We looked for festivals along the coast & noticed the Crab Festival one spring and thought let's go check it out.
1. Close to Beach 2. Quit neighborhood
Now mind you we visit many beaches along the Texas coast and like each one. The Bolivar Peninsula was different & we fell in love with it. It's not like many beach towns that are commercialized and overbuilt, and most businesses are local mom & pops. Everyone is so friendly and there are many fun things to do & see.
We especially like the wiener dog races during crab fest, so much fun.
One of the pictures that intrigued us when deciding to travel for the first time had beaches full of seashells. I never thought I would be a beachcomber, but I am one now. LOL
Bring your family & enjoy the Beach Life with us.
What makes this property unique
Our home is a haven to come and relax, feel the warmth of sun.
Enjoy the beach sand and water and have a comfortable home to come back to and share your day with others.
Crystal Beach is centrally located, and the beach entrance is just at the end of our street. It is close to the Big store, gas stations, restaurants, water parks and many more activities.
