About the host

Hosted by Peggy Dodson McDonald

Host profile image
My husband, Johnie, and I are retired educators. Crystal Beach was our “home away from home” for many years. We have been in the rental business since 2006 and have lived here permanently since 2011. Peggy Dodson McDonald

Why they chose this property

While Galveston is just a free ferry ride away, we like the peace and quiet of Crystal Beach. Peggy Macs is located in the preferred, quiet, family friendly subdivision called Sandy Shores, yet centrally located. We enjoy watching beautiful sunrises and sunsets from the deck and stargazing at night. And of course, the beaches are fantastic.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location!! Our cabin is just a short walk to the beach and close to anything and everything you may need, whether it's the gocery store, the shops and restaurants, the marina, or the water slide. It's all right there!!! And in the preferred Sandy Shores subdivision! WIFI available.
