We really enjoyed our time at the Crab Shack! The place is very comfortable, and the big open space for the living, dining, and kitchen area was great for our entire family to be together. We appreciated the beach towels, chairs, pickleball set, fire pit, outdoor shower, and the deck to watch beautiful sunsets. We also brought our dog - and it was nice having her with us. The owner stayed in communication with us during a power outage (due to a tropical storm the previous day), which was really nice, and we did use the flashlight that we found on site. We enjoyed 2 meals at Juanita's Fish Camp in Crystal Beach and purchased bait from friendly Ms. Nancy's Bait Camp for fishing. The short walk across the road to the beach is very convenient and the waves were fantastic during our visit. We'll be back!
