Great House
Everything was as described. Plenty of room to hang out and the closeness of the beach was worth every bit.

Excellent location
The listing was 100% accurate. Positives - great beach location and absolutely loved the decks. The house was solid / cared for and everything worked. Negatives - I felt it could have been cleaned a little better - crumbs on the kitchen chairs, etc. especially with COVID. I also believe all comforters and pillows should be replaced and/or washed between guests - again especially with COVID. I sani-wiped every single surface down anyway. Had a slight smoke smell but it wasn't unbearable. Dishes are not in good shape as far as cookware so you might want to bring your own. There was old trash washed up under the house and in the yard from the hurricane. Would've been nice if this had been picked up prior to our arrival - we picked up as much as we could. Overall though, a great trip and we would stay again. Note to renters in the area - Please do not leave trash on the beaches! I spent 3 mornings picking up trash from the night before - diapers, beer bottles, water bottles. Signs should be put in place along the beach as a reminder to people "Don't Mess with Texas! Pick up your trash!" Or start fining people large sums of money. Just a suggestion.

Spacious Beach Front view
This beachfront house was the last minute weekend getaway for our family. 3 Bd (with an additional loft of 5 twins) 2Bath was able to give us plenty of space for adults and teens. It was nice to walk directly to beach for wading, fishing, etc. and back to the house for meals,etc. The beach was not overly crowded and the house did not have immediate neighboring houses so we had a little space compared to other places we’ve stayed at Bolivar. We did pay the extra fee for sheets and towels provided by a service. This place is also pet friendly so we were able to bring our 2 small dogs.

Perfect weekend getaway
We loved having everyone in the same house for the weekend, the loft area for the teenagers was perfect. The refrigerator needs to be replaced, but other than that, everything else was great. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

Excellent location if you just want to get away from all the hustle and bustle of Crystal beach
Excellent location and very nice house. without the tons of traffic that comes w/ staying a few miles down the road at crystal beach. we stayed during spring break and had no issues w/ rowdiness or traffic congestion on the beach.. the Loft is excellent for teens/kids to hang out during down time. place was clean and well maintained. the Microwave did go down the last few days we were there.. but we lived ( LOL ) It would be nice if the renters had access to the Lift which is locked up. but that is the only negative.. not enough to deduct a star.

Great because the closeness and view of the beach, however it was not very clean.
We loved our stay at this beachouse because of its location. However, if you are paying someone to clean it, You aren't getting your money's worth. . There is mold in the laundry area and bathroom shower curtain. Dirt is inches thick under recliners and burners on stove are dirty. More chairs are needed for the deck. Most are broken. Also there is a broken table on the deck. We did enjoy our stay and would stay here again, but just wanted you to know that some things needed to be updated.
