Everything was perfect for our families vacation! We will definitely be coming back and definitely recommend to everyone!!

This is the second time we've stayed here and love it. The house is very spacious and clean. The location couldn't be any closer to the beach. The two separate living areas is nice, and the second refrigerator is a huge plus. We would stay here again!

The location was great for us and we enjoyed the updated furnishings in the house.

This house was designed for people who wish to stay in or near the house. Ample seating for meals and relaxation as a group. The acoustics were awesome since we took a few guitars with us too. We had a local church youth group I saw from another review, carry the luggage up for a donation. You can reach them at 409-684-4413. Ask for Pastor Daniel. This was a wonderful vacation and i would recommend the house to anyone who wants to leave some trouble behind for a few days.
5.0
Our pastoral staff stayed for 2 nights for planning purposes. Each minister had their own bedroom which was helpful after a long day of planning. The house is mere steps from the beach. At the time of our stay, there were very few others on the beach.
The house is well apportioned and very suitable with two living room spaces and 4 of the 5 bedrooms have an en-suite restroom. The grill was suitable, a very nice deck, and plenty of parking space.
If the opportunity arises again, we will consider this as our number 1 choice.
(App would not let me list the “who stayed” as Staff)

Great view and plenty of space, highly recommend

The house & location were awesome!! We enjoyed home & our only problem was no electricity the first night. I realize it wasn’t your fault but it was very upsetting & then on our last night it happened again. Again it was unfortunate but put a damper on our trip. Would love to use this property again. Maybe loyalty rewards or stay 5 nights get one night free!!
4.0
I found this listing on VRBO and the size and location were perfect for what we needed. Our entire Family 4 generations stayed! 18 people in total and the house was perfect. It had everything we needed and the Beach walking access was perfect to go back and forth with the babies and the Grandparents!
The only thing I wish was different would of been the check in and check out times! I understand there is a cleaning process and that takes time… However not being able to check in before 4pm on a Thursday and then literally having to pack everything Saturday Evening just to make sure the little things got tidied up on the inside Sunday before 10am was a bit of a rush especially having Little’s that needed breakfast and the wake up process. Maybe adjust those hours and it would be PERFECT!
Over All Memories were Made and we enjoyed our stay!! Beautiful Cabin and Location!

Would recommend to others.
Wish it had a ramp instead of stairs for ease of bringing up suitcases, etc.
5.0
Great "On the Beach" location with plenty of room for our group of 18. Clean, well kept up. Beach items for the kids to use were provided.
TV's in all bedrooms, nice sit at kitchen island and separate conversation area. Deck area with amble seating.
Beach never got to crowded!
5.0
The house was great. I received so many compliments from all of my friends and family for choosing this house. From the location to proximity to the beach, to the house itself, it was great.
The only knock, if there is any (and there's really nothing else), but the house swayed a bit. We have stayed in a Crystal Beach Beachhouse every summer for the last 10 years. We have never stayed in the same house twice. I have never felt a house sway, but this one did. I wasn't the only one that felt it, but it was very minimal at best. It was actually kind of cool, cuz we felt like we were on a cruise ship. It doesn't sway enough to cause dizziness or any sea sickness or anything like that, but we certainly felt it.
The house was super clean, and it was fully furnished. My wife said that it was probably one of the best stocked houses that we have stayed in. (Again, we have stayed in a beach house every summer). We really didn't bring anything other than our swimsuits and food and drink. That was it.
It was a great stay, and we would highly recommend this house to anyone.
5.0
House was awesome. Perfect view and right on a private beach. You could leave your stuff out overnight and no one bothered it. Would recommend it to anyone.
5.0
The property was just as stated in the listing. Clean; a well organized kitchen with everything you need; floor plan very open to engage all twenty guests at one time; bedrooms and bathrooms were very large; the views from the deck were incredible; the sound of the ocean from the deck revealed just how close you were to the beach. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

The property is beachfront and has amazing views. The house has a great open floor plan for entertaining with the kitchen open to the living and study room. Had an issue and Geroge took care of it quickly. We will definitely be back at this property or other properties by Bolivar Vacation Properties!

Enjoyed the stay and it met our needs.

The house was clean well furnished including everything you could ask for in the kitchen. One couple ended up not being able to join us and that worked out well in the end as the upstairs bedrooms required you to walk through one bedroom ( the bunk room) to get to the other separate bedroom. Would be great for family with a bunch of kids but a bit awkward otherwise. Overall a fabulous experience at the beach

Nice beach house

This house was everything we needed and/or wanted and more. The house was clean and views were beyond anything we expected. We will definitely be renting this house again!!

This is a great house for a large group. It has lots of bedrooms, a large living room and plenty of deck space with great furniture. Having two refrigerators in the kitchen is a real plus. The condition and layout of the house was outstanding.
5.0
Shenanigans was roomy, comfortable, and clean. Decks off almost every room gave guests their own space to enjoy the fabulous view. The bathrooms are extra nice and numerous. Two refrigerators in the kitchen was a plus for us. The location is super, right on the beach and no house on one side, giving us some extra privacy. Everyone really liked this house.

Shenanigans is an outstanding property - perfect location and beautifully appointed. We had a wonderful time and hope to go back!

Fabulous house, great location
Great location. Love the layout and decor. Lots of windows to enjoy the view of the beach. Five nice sized rooms. All beds are big and comfortable. Very clean. Five very clean bathrooms. Great balconies. Nice and breezy parking garage, large enough to park four vehicles, with 2 tables and chairs and counter space for grilling. Great place to gather during the hottest pet of the day.

Large, Spacious Beach House - Perfect for Big Groups
The house was big and spacious, which was great for my group of 14 adults, and right on a nice, quiet strip of the beach. We mainly cooked in and the kitchen had pretty much everything we needed. It was a bit hit with the whole group, would definitely recommend!

Mom and Dad, 2 small dogs and 6 Sr High School Students celebrating Prom and up coming graduation. This place is great for a large group and literally on the beach. Fully equipped and need nothing.

It's just WOW!
What can I say?!?! It's really an amazing property. Everything was exactly as described. Our extended family of 14 adults and children really enjoyed the stay. The house was beautiful, clean, very spacious, and had everything we needed. And the view was second to none. Loved sitting in the deck to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or an adult beverage in the evening. Highly recommend!

Perfect Thanksgiving Stay
The home was absolutely perfect for our family and what we needed. The location is great, it's fully equipped with all the kitchen things, the layout is awesome, the decks are amazing...we loved it all! My only complaint is the mattresses. 😂 They aren't the comfiest! But we'd definitely stay again and highly recommend!
