Owner's Map of Crystal Beach

Originally from Pennsylvania, we built this home in 2004. I enjoy living and working in the Destin area selling Real Estate and managing my vacation home. I have a love for my long hair dachshund which is why we will work with families to make an exception for a pet/child.

    • This was our second stay at the Sand Dollar. Again, the house met all of our needs and more. It has so many amenities - books, movies, kitchen and pool supplies. It is also beautiful and spacious. Thanks for all of the extras the house provides - we will be back!

    • What a beautiful house! We stayed at the Sand Dollar over Spring Break and this was our fourth experience staying in a rental house in Crystal Beach. The Sand Dollar was everything that we anticipated and more. We had nine adults, one teeager and three children and there was plenty of room for everyone. The house has many extras and was very, very clean. Our vacation was wonderful and one we will never forget. Thanks for a great week.

    • Dear Katie, I think I told you that we have rented houses all over the states for family vacations. All have been nice and we have had no bad experiences or "war stories". Your house was the best equipped, cleanest and had everything one would need for an enjoyable week. Since we are all big walkers and into physical fitness we liked being able to walk to everything and used our cars very little. The Runkel Family

    • This is a wonderful place to have a vacation. The house was just perfect in size, decor and location. With 7 adults and 4 little ones, we had plenty of room, the beach was just about a 5 min. stroll and when that was too far the pool was right there. Thank you Katie for making this house a home for your guests.

    • We again had a GREAT time in Destin! We try to come every summer and this was our first stay at the Sand Dollar. We were very comfortable and had plenty of room with 3 families and a total of 13 people. The back yard is great and the house very accomodating with all of the little extras!

    • We take a family vacation every two years. The Sand Dollar was the very best house we have ever stayed in! It is well equipped. The bedrooms were wonderful. They were so large and it was great for families! I appreciated how clean it was. The pool area was the spot we used the most. The grandchildren loved having a pool all to themselves. Even the pool area was clean and supplied with all kinds of toys. Katie, you thought of everything! Thank you!

    • We celebrated our parent's 50th Wedding Anniversary. Families from 4 states traveled to the Sand Dollar. The house and ammenities are extraordinary - it was PERFECT for our crew. With 10 adults and 2 kids everyone had their own space. The kitchen is a dream and the common areas are quite comfortable. Everyone wants to make this an annual trip!!! The biggest decision we had to make all week was whether we wanted to stay at the beach or go to the pool. We loved the privacy of the backyard, too. Katie, thanks for your help with all our plans - you are a sweetheart!

    • We had our 2008 family vacation in Destin this year and we couldn't have been more pleased with area including the beach, and especially the home. It exceeded our expectation in every way. It's beautiful, private, and first class in every way. The pool is great and the beaches are 5 minutes away. The Johnson's Sunrise Beach, MO 4/23-5/3/08
