Meet The Host

Lindsey

Owner

Hello! Thank you so much for considering spending your vacation at our little slice of paradise in Port Aransas.

We are a family of 5, with kids ranging from 8-14. All of us were born in the Salt Lake City, Utah area where we lived until 2020, when we got sick of the snow and packed it all up for our move to Austin, TX. We have fallen in love with our new home state. We are definitely a beach family, so we were so excited to discover Port Aransas and how close it is to us!

We share a love of collecting bourbons, traveling with our family, friends, and sometimes just as a couple (mom and dad need time too). We are avid New Orleans Saints fans (it's a long story...feel free to ask!) and fall football season can never come too soon.
