Outdoor speakers with a Bluetooth sound system, hanging string lights, and a brand new G-6 Tranquility Series 6 Person Spa make this space a paradise.
The upper decks are spacious and include sunny, shady, and even screened-in deck areas. Seating and lighting is plentiful, and you can even hear the ocean waves at the front of the neighborhood.
Walk inside to your open-concept luxury kitchen, dining, and living spaces. The kitchen is fully-equipped with everything you could possibly need to host your family or friends. The kitchen and island area seat 12 people comfortably. Small appliances not shown in pictures include a toaster and a crock pot.
The living room has comfortable seating for 8-10 people and a large Roku TV with a sound bar and a subwoofer. You’ll find board games and puzzles in the entertainment center. How about a game day, game night, or a movie night?

The garage has a stand-up deep freezer and an additional refrigerator. We have an honor system set up for the deep freezer where we keep (10) 10 pound bags of ice ready for guests at all times.

The garage also features 12+ beach chairs that you are welcomed to bring to the beach, and a number of games and entertainment options for use at the property.

We have a dog run! Your dog (30 pounds or less) can roam the entire upstairs patio space and take the stairs down to a fenced-in grass yard.
We work hard to maintain a place that you and yours can enjoy. Come stay with us and indulge in the beach life!

4th of July Fun
We had a wonderful time. The house was fully equipped and had everything you needed. We enjoyed the hot tub and downstairs games. The only thing I would say is it might be a good ideal to bring your own bath towels. There towels are very worn out and hard on the body. Not a big deal we just went and bought some at the Big Store. In all we had a great time and would definitely recommend this house. Oh and the owners were very fast at getting back with you and were very sweet people.

Where to begin...the property owners are great. Very accommodating with very quick responses even while they were on vacation. The cabin is just perfect. So cozy. The amenities were outstanding, I could not have wanted or needed anything that was not already provided. I won't look any further for a cabin in my future. This cabin will definitely be my go to. Enjoyed every minute of my stay.

This was the perfect getaway for my girl to have a fun sleepover with her friends at the beach. We sang songs, hand some junk food, watched movies, had more junk food, and she was able to read letters from friends and family that cherished her 18 years on a beautiful patio. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home! We will be back!!

Beautiful home, great location!
The house was beautiful! Great location to big store and only a few rows back from the beach. Very clean and owners were very responsive. The “4th” bedroom is what looks to be a second garage converted to a room and is separate from
the of the home. It would’ve been nice to know that beforehand because we had small children staying with us, but would still stay here again!

Everything you could imagine and more
The property pictures absolutely do the property justice. The short walk the the magnificent beach makes me think I'll skip Galveston in favor of Bolivar on all my trips to come. The property itself was VERY clean and had been thoughtfully appointed with everything you could need. Less than a mile away was a great local store that could help you restock the stores of the use one - replace one stores of the host. The hot tub, fully appointed kitchen, washer/dryer, grill, games, towels, beach stuff and more made this the perfect rental. Best testimonial: we can''t wait to come back for a friends and family vacay part 2.

Beat beach house rental!
For years now, we have traveled to Crystal Beach to enjoy summer vacation with family and friends. We have rented properties and always loved our stays; however this trip was by far the best! On top of traveling with wonderful company, here’s a few reasons why we loved our stay so much:
The neighborhood was quiet and the house was located perfectly; it was just a short walk or golf cart ride to the beach and the store was just down the road. The property owners were extremely accommodating, going above and beyond to make sure our stay was wonderful. Not only was the house furnished and decorated beautifully in immaculate condition with comfortable beds and couches and stocked with all necessities, they went the extra mile suppling items such as beach towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash, and they provided bags of ice for our coolers etc. They made sure the jacuzzi was always sparkling so we could enjoy our nightly star gazing.
Do not pass on this house; we will be back and we recommend it to all, it won’t disappoint!!

Great House
We stayed a full 7 days here and it was awesome. The convenience of freezers full of ice is awesome, we made 1 trip for ice and that was to replace what we'd used. They have a ton of chairs and Beach towels for your use. The downstairs room was great to send all our teen boys to for the night. Kelsey and Curtis were very responsive when we had questions. We'd definately stay here again.
