Anchors Away is a beautifully designed 3‑bedroom, 2‑bath beach home in the heart of Crystal Beach, created for families and groups who want comfort, space, and easy walkability to the shore. The home features two king bedrooms, including a private master suite with a tile walk‑in shower and rain shower head, plus a third bedroom with two twin‑over‑full bunk beds. The second bathroom has a convenient tub and shower combination, and a full‑size stackable washer and dryer make longer stays simple.
The open living area offers comfortable seating and Roku TVs, and the kitchen is well equipped with granite countertops, stainless appliances, and both an automatic drip coffee maker and a K‑type brewer. Beds are made with fresh linens, and towels are provided for your stay. For safety and cleanliness, please bring your own seasonings and oil.
Outside, enjoy a fenced yard with a play set, a shaded bar and grill area under the house with a charcoal grill, and a table and chairs for cooking, eating, and enjoying time together. A downstairs enclosed outdoor shower is available for rinsing off after the beach.
Anchors Away sits on a quiet street with no direct car access to the beach, which keeps the area calmer than the main beach roads. The street itself can be driven on, and the beach is a short walk or golf cart ride from the house. Restaurants, shopping, coffee, and doughnuts are a short drive away, and a personal vehicle is recommended for getting around the peninsula. Parking on the beach requires a ten‑dollar permit available at The Big Store.
Because the home is elevated for safety and better views, you may notice slight natural movement during strong winds or when people walk inside. This is normal for coastal homes built on pilings.
