About the host
Hosted by Wendy Dabrusin
My husband, Marc, and I bought this home in March 2021 as a vacation home and love it so much that we want to share it with guests when we aren't visiting. We live in Austin and have four adult children and 3 crazy but lovable dogs. I'm a mortgage Loan Officer and Marc is a Set Decorator in the film industry here. In 2021 we celebrated our 20-year Anniversary and what better gift than a new beach house! We love it here and hope you do too! I'm available to communicate throughout your stay and my co-host/cleaner lives close to the home. You will be well taken care of with us!
Why they chose this property
We love Crystal Beach and we love the location of this home. This was the first house we saw and immediately knew it had to be ours! We love being on the quieter end of the beach and love the direct access straight to the water.
What makes this property unique
Super clean! The lift is a bonus to avoid making several trips carting luggage, groceries and coolers up and down the stairs. We added the fenced yard in 2023 after almost losing one of our dogs who escaped down the stairs. It made our visits so much easier and less stressful! The fire pit was also added in 2023 and we love hanging out there at night making smores and enjoying an evening cocktail. The solar deck lighting adds great ambiance at night. The outdoor fish cleaning sink is convenient as well. Lots of extra touches throughout the home and we have provided pretty much anything you can think of. Just bring your clothes, mosquito spray, beach towels, groceries, drinks, swimsuit and flip flops for a great vacation at the beach!
