Great stay

Well appointed vacation cabin. Beds and linens were comfy. The Blackstone grill was great to have so we didnt have to dirty the kitchen too much. Owners were easy to contact and quick to respond. We had a great stay!

Best rental we’ve ever stayed in

This was such a beautiful, clean home. Everything was so well laid out and organized. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking full meals. The out door seating was perfect for having our family over who were also staying in the area. The crab boiler was especially a perk! We boiled shrimp one night and crabs the next. The blackstons was perfect for burgers and hotdogs. We definitely want to come back. The walk to beach was easy. JBs shrimp supplier close by, crabbing jetty’s, Rita’s ice cream and the big store were some favorite nearby. The Galveston strand was just a close ferry ride away. Next time we will stay longer!

All the extras

Its a good location but still probably a 5 min walk to the beach. From the porch you can just see a sliver of the ocean. But let me tell you that this place has everything. Spices to cook with and not just stuff other guests left. A entire spice rack, diner wear from crate & barrel, a

Excellent Place

We had an amazing time at your beach house. Everything we needed was there. It was truly home away from home. Can't wait to stay here again in the near future! Loved the very close walk to the beach as well! Thanks again!

About the host

Hosted by Jodi Perry

Host profile image
My husband and I have 3 teenagers and own a farm about an hour away from Crystal Beach. We purchased our beach cottage for a place to get away and relax since work and our farm keeps us busy. We own cattle, donkeys, pigs, chickens, guineas, ducks, goats, dogs, cats and rabbits.

Why they chose this property

Our cottage is centrally located on Bolivar minutes to The Big Store, local eateries and the infamous "wash out". We are located on the corner with direct and quick access to the beach. We have amazing views of the Gulf and plenty of outdoor space to relax and enjoy the breeze.

What makes this property unique

We offer use of our smoker and Blackmon griddle/air fryer. Downstairs you will find a hammock, swing, outdoor table/chairs and a bar. Wake up in the mornings and enjoy homemade waffles in our waffle maker and a cup of coffee from our dual purpose coffee maker. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do!
