Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Woodrow Guidry

We are a family from Houston, TX but grew up in Southeast Texas. We regularly visited Crystal Beach when we were younger. Our dream was to own a beach home to share with our family and friends for years to come. That dream came true when we bought this home in 2016. We put in the sweat equity to make it a home away from home not only for us but for our guests who rent it.
Why they chose this property
Our home is very spacious and located in an area if you are looking for a nice quiet place to spend with the family, unlike other areas that can be congested. We are also one of the few neighborhoods with large lots and no homes are sitting on top of each other. We also do not have direct access to the beach by car which cuts down on the amount of car traffic.
