Crystal Beach Oasis, 2 Decks, 2 Master Suites, Steps to the Beach, Dogs Welcome
Welcome to the Bolivar Peninsula: Our Coastal Paradise!
We are so excited to host you! Whether you are here to unplug on the beach, hunt for seashells, or explore local history, the Bolivar Peninsula has a unique charm unlike anywhere else in Texas. Here is a quick look at the incredible history, nature, and culture right outside your door.
Before you read about our beautiful beach property, let us share a little about the wonderful little Peninsula where you will be staying.
Pirates, Forts, and Living History Long before it became a favorite beach getaway, this 27-mile stretch of paradise was a wild frontier.
* Pirate Legends: In the early 1800s, the famous pirate Jean Lafitte and his crew used this exact peninsula as a hideout. Local legend says he buried treasure under the coastal oak trees! * The Iron Lighthouse: At the western tip sits the iconic Point Bolivar Lighthouse. Built in 1872, this historic iron structure survived the great hurricanes of 1900 and 1915, providing a safe haven for hundreds of locals. * Fort Travis: Located right by the ferry, this historic fort defended the Texas coast during both World War I and World War II. Today, you can walk among its historic concrete bunkers and enjoy panoramic ocean views.
World-Class Nature & Birding Did you know you are staying in one of the top birdwatching destinations in North America?
* High Island: Perched on a massive underground salt dome, High Island features dense oak mottes that serve as the crucial first landfall for thousands of colorful migratory birds traveling across the Gulf of Mexico. * The Bolivar Flats: This internationally recognized shorebird sanctuary is a must-visit for catching glimpses of pelicans, roseate spoonbills, and thousands of coastal birds.
The Local Vibe: Golf Carts and Free Ferries Life moves a little slower down here, and we love it that way!
* Beach Driving: Unlike most Texas beaches, you can drive your vehicle right onto the sand here (just be sure to grab a cheap annual beach parking permit at local stores). * Golf Cart Culture: Renting a golf cart is the ultimate way to zip around Crystal Beach, grab a bite to eat, or catch a sunset. * The Galveston Ferry: Want a fun, free day trip? Hop on the 24-hour Bolivar Ferry to Galveston. Keep your eyes peeled on the water—resident pods of dolphins love to swim alongside the ferry boats!
We hope you fall in love with the peninsula's laid-back, quirky charm just as much as we have. Have an amazing stay!

About the host
Hosted by Anna and Paul
We are Paul and Anna from Oklahoma and we love spending time with family and going to the beach. This is exactly why we wanted to share our home in Crystal Beach with other families. With our kids being grown now we understand how precious time is. Making memories while they are young is so important. We hope that you enjoy your stay at our beautiful home in Crystal Beach and are here for any questions or concerns you may have.
Why they chose this property
We enjoy the slow paced lifestyle of Crystal Beach and being able to drive out on the beach to enjoy the ocean. Our favorite part is getting to walk the beach in the mornings and getting to know other travelers and locals by visiting the local restaurants in the evenings.
What makes this property unique
We are about a 4 minute walk to the beach and less than a mile from The Big Store. So everything is really close. The home itself has 2 Master Suites with their own private bathrooms and balcony access. Making it the perfect place for large or multiple families to enjoy.
