I liked to stay in this house, it is well designed , and have very comfortable of bes, my son, my husband and my dogs are happy to stay for 3 nights. I also like the back yard and dog wash place, so after we walked our dogs, they can cleaned their feets. The house is closed to restaurants, and any other place, we had good time and relaxed to stay in Galveston for 3 days.

Nice cozy house

House location was great, two blocks from Seawall. The parking on the street was a battle but we got through it. Overall the house was well equipped with everything you needed. The bikes needed some work but everything checked out great. I would definitely stay here again.

Great rental home

This house was the perfect place for a long weekend. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The dogs loved the fenced back yard. The covered patio was nice since it rained most of our weekend. The beach is a short walk away and many restaurants are also close by. We will be back again.

Puppies first time to the ocean

The stay was great. A little bit of rain each day but the property was minutes from a privately owned beach which we used with the dog. The property has a cute setup and was perfect for what we needed. I enjoyed the outdoor kitchen and the covered patio where I could read in the mornings as the lite rain fell. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Property Close To Beach

We had a fantastic stay at this house in Galveston. The property is just a few blocks from the beach and also close walking to local eateries. We also walked downtown (1mile). The property is amazing. Very clean and modern. The back yard is a great space to eat and relax in the evenings. Would highly recommend and hope to stay here again soon

Great house!

This was a perfect house for our weekend in Galveston for Mardi Gras! We usually stay on the west end but opted to be closer to the festivities. We loved the house itself, very clean and cute and great backyard! It was a super quick walk to the beach and to restaurants/bars. It was a short drive to our friends house where we watched the parades and short drive to the strand! Will stay here again when not staying on the west end!

Ironman Competition

My son competed in his first Ironman this past weekend and having this house helped all of our stress levels! The location made it easy to navigate the island, it was close enough to the beach that we could take a nice walk, and the beds were so comfortable! The backyard was perfect for our dog and we enjoyed using the firepit to relax before the big day!

Very clean and good communication

Beds were comfy, walkable to the beach, and host communicated well. There are some tight spaces in this house just FYI. Steep and narrow stairs and downstairs bathroom feels like a broom closet turned into a bathroom but it was well cleaned and we enjoyed our time there (just my spouse and I)

Close to the beach

Home was clean and well outfitted for a party of 4-6 people. The beach is only two short blocks away with easy access to pedestrian crossing on Seawall Blvd. A beach capable wagon, chairs, and sand castle toys were provided in the on-property shed. Alley entrance provides convenient post-beach access to outdoor showers for both pets and people. Neighborhood was fairly quiet, especially in the evenings. There are multiple other rentals in the area so street parking spots near the home was limited. We would rent again on a future trip.

Galveston Beach house

This house is absolutely adorable. The owner was responsive and very nice. The details in this house were above and beyond what most beach houses offer. The sooty bath area was great for our fur babies. The only two things we noticed is that garbage outside piled up and a lot of flies and gnats in the kitchen. Other than that this property is wonderful

Pet friendly family vacation

This place was so awesome with a great location. We loved that we were able to bring our fur babies with us! There was plenty of beds for all of us (3 adults and 3kids). I only wish there was one more full bath but I do have to say even with everyone taking showers we never did run out of hot water. The backyard was awesome with the outdoor kitchen and plenty of room for the dogs to run around. I loved that it was a 6 foot fenced in backyard so we didn’t have to worry about our dogs getting out. Overall this place was great and we would definitely stay again!

This home was in an amazing location and so easy to walk or bike anywhere! Each bed was incredibly comfy and the backyard set up was great!! The hose for the dog baths was on when we arrived and we could never figure out how to turn it all the way off. Bikes were so useful! We do wish they weren’t all flat though and 2 bikes brakes didn’t work we found out! Overall, this house was perfect and I’d definitely continue to come back!!!

Great house and location

House was very clean. Great location. Easy walk to the beach. About two blocks. We had four adults and a baby and it was a great fit for us. Only has one full bathroom but we had no issue at all. There is a half bath downstairs. Very quiet. Had the power go out but the agent in charge called me right back when I called her at 6:52 am. It was only off about 30 minutes. I would highly recommend this house
