With access to a private boat ramp, dock, and oversized lot right next to the home, those looking for time on the water and lots of outdoor space will love this elevated dog- and family-friendly home in Crystal Beach. Sitting right on the canal, you’ll enjoy easy access to Galveston Bay, and you’re about a mile from the beach. The kids and dog will love the spacious back yard, and you’ll love sipping coffee in the backyard swing. Both the patio under the house and the main-floor deck are perfect for evening cocktails and a dinnertime cookout on the gas grill.

Inside, you’ll find an open, beach-themed space that will put you in vacation mode in no time. The full kitchen features all the appliances, a wine fridge, and a lovely blue backsplash, reminiscent of the sea. The gang can dine together at the adjacent table, and spend the evening snuggled up on the sofa, watching TV. Can’t agree on what to watch? No problem – there’s another TV and couch in one of the bedrooms. Extra perks of this home include a washer/dryer, free WiFi, and central AC.

We had a great time. I had problems with the lock on the door. And there is screens coming off the windows from the wind. But most of our stay was awesome. Thank you

Fresh, Clean, Comfortable!
This house does have an interesting layout, but provided privacy for two adults friends travelling together. There was one traditional bedroom with a full bath connected to it. The room with the entry doors had twin beds and a large bed. A bathroom with walk-in shower and laundry was connected to that room. It had a sliding door that separated it from the kitchen/living area essentially making it a bedroom that you enter the house through. Kitchen stocked for preparation of just about any meal. Full-size fridge. Plenty of towels. Soaps, etc. included. GREAT water pressure. Highly recommend for 2 adults or a small family.

Three friends wanting a quick get away from our busy schedules. Perfect distance from home and we all grew up visiting this area year around. My childhood beach camp was destroyed by Hurricane Ike. The cabin we discovered was a pre Ike cabin that has been beautifully remodeled. Just what we wanted. Oh yes and we are in our 60's so we do know how to enjoy peace and quiet.Thank you to the owners.

Quiet house to relax
This was a great place to stay with our dogs. The yard to the side offered a safe place for them to run around. We weren’t bothered by any late night fireworks and had everything we needed. And we were able to launch boat and keep it in the water with plenty of room left for trailer and parking. Only downside is both doors to outside are only accessible walking through the room with all the beds. Meant that when others were sleeping we had to disturb them to take dogs outside.

Best fishing place to stay
Absolutely will come back! But not fully stocked so bring stuff. I left seasonings and paper towel and toilet paper. Bring trash bags. And no mixing bowls. Definitely very nice though.
