There, you can enjoy some sweet treats, or rent a kayak to explore the deep blue waters of East Bay. Head down to the beach for some time on the sand or take a tour of the lush landscape at the Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge. Bright and cheery, this contemporary beach home welcomes you in with central air conditioning and plenty of room for everyone. Toss a load of dirty clothes in the private washer/dryer and then whip up a snack in the fully equipped kitchen. Then head out onto the deck to unwind with an ice-cold brew while you listen to tunes streaming over the free WiFi. You can use the charcoal BBQ to grill up dinner then surf the cable channels or watch everyone's favorite DVD. After the stars come out, grab your marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers to make some s'mores around the backyard firepit to end the perfect day. Whether you're lounging on the sun-kissed beaches, tearing up the sand in your car (vehicles are permitted on the beach for a small fee) or hanging out with friends on the deck, this Crystal Beach home will make it easy to create wonderful vacation memories.
