This Beach House was very nice. I highly recommend it . The Host was very easy to work with. My family and I came down for my grand daughters 5th birthday, they own a beach house in Crystal Beach, but had several friends and family from out of town staying with them , so I rented this nice beach house for the rest of our family. It was just a mile away from their beach house so it made it very convenient to visit with everyone. This house was just 1 block away from the beach, that was great ! I would rent it again.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

My family and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway. The house location is so close to the beach. The layout of the house is ideal for a couple of families to stay. We will definitely make this house our place for soaking up the sun and enjoying some quiet time.

Beautiful beach home!

We enjoyed our stay over the spring break weekend. The home was clean and a short distance from the beach access. We brought our golf cart but there are several places to rent from as well. Host responded quickly and our teen kids enjoyed! We will be returning in the summer for another getaway weekend! Would highly recommend this property to family and friends!
