About this property

Crystal Beach-beach home. 3br2 bth. 5 min walk to beach. Sleeps 8. Pets welcome.

At "Don't Worry Beach Happy", you'll savor the quiet beach life as you sit back and relax on the spacious covered balcony. Enjoy a family dinner on the expansive downstairs patio. Curl up in an Adirondack chair and read your favorite book. A large, fenced back yard is perfect place for the kids to run around. Take in the sights and sounds with a short 5 minute stroll to the beach. At less than 1000 ft from the water, the beach is literally down the street from the home! Location is centrally and conveniently located within a short drive to nearby stores and restaurants. Beach chairs, toys, towels, wagon and outdoor shower are available for your convenience. We have a fenced back yard for your fur babies. Dogs less than 50 lbs are welcome! We welcome responsible dog owners and we ask that you put the dog in a crate when they are home alone. Maintaining a clean home to be enjoyed by everyone is our goal. Certain breeds such as Pitbulls and Rotweilers are not allowed due to our home insurance policy.

Great Propery for a Short or Long Stay

We rented this property as a last minute anniversary weekend getaway. The host was very responsive and communicated very well. The location was perfect for accessing the main areas of the community and had great beach access. The property is fresh and updated and nicely furnished. We would definitely consider staying here again!

Great stay

The check in process was great. Code was given and everything was ready when we arrived. Home was close enough to the beach. It has helpful that there were some basic kitchen spices and fancy as well. Beds were comfy and every room had a fan, big plus

She had everything there that we needed for our stay and provided plenty of fresh linens. We would definitely stay at her beach house again. My kids loved her variety of games and puzzles!

Great home!

We loved our stay for a family of 5! about 5 minutes or less walk to the beach. It was quite and clean area! It was safe and well appointed with all of the necessities. The home was very comfortable for our family of 5 with practically everything except food! We didn’t have to bring a single beach toy, wagon, chairs, towels, games, etc! Host was excellent and incredibly quick to respond. We had a lot of questions along the way and she did not hesitate! We loved our stay and will consider this property in future visits to our favorite texas vacay spot.

Giving this a 10

Five stars is just not enough for this beautiful property. As a professional chef I enjoyed how well the kitchen was appointed. I always travel with my own knives but they weren’t required. Having an island with electricity made cooking so easy. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels. It looked freshly painted. There were fun games on the shelves, two great tvs which we never even turned on. Great outdoor furniture. Good proximity to the beach. But best of all so so incredibly clean and fresh. Lauren is an amazing hostess and responded quickly to every need.

Joy was an amazing, gracious guest. She left my home spotless. I am so lucky as a host to have a guest like her. It meant the world to me to have a professional chef have such wonderful comments about my kitchen and amenities because my goal is to have the kitchen as a gathering place for families to make memories.

Simply perfection!

Lauren's home was lovely, well appointed, and had all of the essentials that you need for a home away from home. It is a wonderful perk to not have to tote kcups, dishwasher packs, laundry detergent, seasoning, oil, etc for a time away. These extras being provided were massively helpful! The home is wonderfully clean with new furniture, linens, and towels, tons of seating indoor and out. For us, the proximity to stingaree marina was critical (as we were there for work) and the nearness of both the liquor store and grocery were perfect. Unfortunately, we did not have time to use the hammock, beach gear, or outdoor shower but if I ever get back to the area, I will time my vacation around the availability of this home. 100% this home is in the top tier of rentals I have booked through this app! Thanks Lauren :)

About the host

Hosted by Lauren

Host profile image
Our family loves to travel but our favorite places seem to be in a beach town, therefore we bought a beach house! We put time, effort, care and love into making this beach home an ideal family vacation home. We love spending time here & making memories and we hope you will too! Escape from the bustle of life and spend a weekend or a week by the sea to decompress and create lasting memories.

Why they chose this property

This home is a beautiful, airy home with tall cathedral ceiling that really creates that open atmosphere. It is well stocked for families or group of friends. Conveniently located down the street from the beach and a short drive to stores and restaurant makes your stay effortless. The house is perfect for outdoor gathering by utilizing the large balcony that wraps around the house. The expansive patio and large, fenced side yard allows you to sit back, enjoy a drink, while the kids play in the side yard.

What makes this property unique

Updated, beautiful beach home with very close proximity to the water in a quiet neighborhood yet very conveniently located close to the water, stores, restaurant, and golf cart rental.
