Bolivar Bliss

3 2 10 Gilchrist, Texas

Bolivar Bliss is a charming 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home that sleeps up to 8 guests comfortably, but also has a queen size sleeper sofa that will accommodate two extra guests. Its open concept living, dining and kitchen area great for entertaining or just relaxing with the family. Bolivar Bliss has all the comforts of home including a fully stocked kitchen with all the convenient appliances and comfortable furnishings. The kids are sure to love the bunk room with their own TV for streaming favorite movies and shows. The real show stopper of this home is the beachfront views! You can enjoy sitting and relaxing on the deck with your favorite beverage while enjoying the sites and sounds of the Gulf as the waves come rushing ashore. Plan to witness, and perhaps photograph the spectacular sunrises and sunsets each day as well as the moon casting its glow over the waves each evening. Along with the "million dollar view" of the Gulf of Mexico, there is fantastic fishing right from the water's edge directly in front of the house, commonly bringing in Redfish, Speckle Trout and Flounder. The large lot is perfect for playing outdoor games and children running! There is walking and golf cart access to the beach, but the only vehicle access is about 0.5 miles east down Hwy. 87 at Mazzu Street. After a day of playing in the sand, be sure to rinse away all the great Beach fun, in the shower downstairs. This home also provides a charcoal grill for your use. Please provide your own charcoal, lighter fluid, and matches. This home will bring you and your guests some much needed coastal "Bliss" year round! You will find a twin/queen bunkbed in the primary bedroom and also in the 3rd bedroom. The 2nd bedroom contains a queen bed and you will find a sofa bed in the main living area.

Perfect getaway

by Terri
We had the pleasure to stay at this cute house right on the beach. The kids found so many shells and the water was perfect! A mini Destin. The house had everything we needed and more!

July 4th Fireworks

by David
We just completed our stay at BB over the July 4th weekend and had a BLAST. The location of BB is fantastic. It was so nice to be directly on the beach, as last year we stayed in a fifth row property. BB had everything we needed and more (they even had some beach toys and chairs to share). We paid for a 2-hour early check-in and the Bolivar Escapes people didn\'t miss a beat. My only neutral comment is that, although there is enough room literally for 10 people to sleep, the 2 non-master rooms are TIGHT. There wasn\'t even enough room to set your luggage down flat on the floor in these rooms while allowing room to walk around the bed and the closet doors are not able to open fully. My crew worked through it all without complaint but just want to make it known that the size of this unit (around 900 square feet) may be pushing it to accommodate 10 people. Overall, we LOVED the unit and it did NOT disappoint. However, next year we will have to get a different unit due to the size of the 2 non-master bedrooms and the fact that our 3 smallest guests will be 1 more year larger than they were this year and we will need more room. 🙂 Thanks BB for a great weekend!!!!!!

Janice was receptive when we had something come up with the house.  I appreciate how quickly she was able to respond, it made our stay much more comfortable.  Would definitely stay at any property she is hosting.  Thank you, Janice!
