The house is in a beautiful location and is very well thought out. It had everything we could have needed and was nicely decorated. Wonderful stay; we will be back! Thank you!

Our trip to Lonestar Beach Retreat was a three night stay. We wanted a place to hangout and relax and we were not disappointed. The interior is very nice and comfortable, but we enjoyed the wonderful deck most. We did walk on the beach, dig in the sand, and explore the area, but spent most of the time taking in the views from the porch and deck. Becky reached out to us several times to make sure we were enjoying our stay. We would definitely stay again!

Stayed a month. Perfect location!!! Other than grocery shopping, we never left the house. The Beach is literally in the backyard! Beautiful house. Becky was great. Quick responses to any questions. In 30 days she wrote us twice unless we asked a question (Which we loved!)!! Not pushy or naggy,fully trusted us with her home for 30 days. Pet Friendly in every way and that is a rarity and a huge plus. Thank you Becky and we wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Tracy and Brian

Becky’s place was one of the best air bnbs we have ever stayed at. It is so close to the water and we were able to watch dolphins play from the balcony. We were coming off our wedding week and had very little time to pack so having all of the beach essentials like an umbrella, chairs, shovels, and a washer and dryer was exactly what we needed. It allowed us to just go and have fun without having to stress. When we wanted to extend our stay an extra day she quickly responded and accommodated us. We had an amazing trip and plan to come back!
