About the host
Hosted by Megan
We are The Johnson Family. We are grateful to be able to split our time between our beach house and our home in Alaska. My husband and I both grew up in Texas, met in Alaska, and now we are excited to share our love of the Third Coast with our children. This vacation home helps us to do just that! We hope you enjoy our beach escape as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
We love our vacation home! We are excited to share it with you. We look forward to sitting on the deck, especially mornings and evenings, watching the waves in the distance. Downstairs is a lot of fun. We enjoy hanging out and playing Ring on a String, or Washers with our children. Volleyball and Tetherball are favorites, too. We love taking the short walk to the beach for boogie boarding or beach combing.
What makes this property unique
Our house is situated on a 1/2 acre lot. We have plenty of space to run and play. The private street makes it very quiet, and kid friendly. Our beach access is a breeze at the end of our street, to the right.
