Family gatherings before deployment

We traveled from three different states to see my youngest son before his future deployment. We had a blast hanging on the beach, going deep sea fishing and dolphin sightseeing in Galveston, and just being able to relax with each other.

First family vacation

Our stay was awesome! First family vacation and it was a blast. Beach is walking distance and you can buy day pass for $10 to drive onto the beach if you have a lot to carry. The bottom portion of the house was perfect for our BBQ while rained and cooled down perfectly. The beds are comfortable and everything was clean. Market is down the street and was very convenient for groceries and saved money this will probably be our yearly tradition now. Already planning our next stay.

Will rent again!

The property was very clean. I have to say that was one of the most important things for me. Location was great. Near the big store and a donut shop for the kids breakfast. I took the advice of a previous review and rented a golf cart. Probably the best decision I made the whole trip. We rented from “Its a beach thing” that was located near the cabin. I highly recommend them. Timely drop off pick up and just as friendly as can be. There was very little traffic on our road with easy beach access. We really enjoyed staying here and look forward to booking again.

Great location to the beach with golf cart and perfect little house to spend quality family time in! We really enjoyed it! Note* ~ the house was clean, but when we first walked in and for the first day it did smell kinda like cigarettes. But other than that it was really great, thank you for having us!

Crystal Beach

Overall we enjoyed our stay because we were with family, but there are definitely some things that can be improved for future guests: 1) The address that was sent to us for the location was not correct, and we had to drive an extra two hours. 2) It seems that the house had not been checked before we arrived because the refrigerator (we were told was available downstairs) had been off for several days and was full of mold and mildew. 3) The owner responded each time we reached out but he was never proactive about touching base with us. 4) The couch in the family room was very dirty and stained. 5) About half of the outdoor furniture is broken and without cushions. 6) The outdoor shower was not usable because the handle is broken off. 7) The towels in the house were damp from the previous guests and we had to wash them all before using. 8) The dishwasher was full of dishes.
