We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this home. Everything about it felt just right from the moment we arrived. The location is ideal, tucked into a safe and secure neighborhood that made it easy to relax and truly enjoy our time.The beds were incredibly comfortable, and as someone coming from the Northwest, I was especially grateful for how well the air conditioning handled the humidity. It made a huge difference in our comfort.The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, which made it feel like a true home away from home. Every detail seemed thoughtfully considered, and the home was beautifully maintained.What stood out most was the homeowner. They were always available, responsive, and genuinely kind and understanding, which added an extra layer of ease to our stay.The overall atmosphere was peaceful and quiet, exactly what we were hoping for. Everything we needed was right there within reach.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-cared-for place in a perfect location.

What a great house! It was wonderfully comfortable while maintaining style with an eye for detail…. Not an easy balance. The deck/view was our reason for booking this property. Incredible! We fished, crabbed, kayaked, and used the SUP. Some nights we played games and watched movies…. Ahhhh, the memories we made. The kitchen was well appointed, the bedding was perfect, and the views were spectacular.

Great Bay House

This was are second time to stay at this house and we love the house and the location. The new fishing pier was really nice and the boys had lots of success fishing off of it. Our teens really enjoy having a separate area downstairs. Great house and excellent host!

Beautiful spot on the Bay

We had a great trip to this bay front house. Two levels of outdoor space had nice breezes and shade. Extra large fenced in yard was well kept and perfect for our dog. Comfortable, well stocked house - lower level suite was great for the kids to hang out. We had fun fishing, paddle boarding and kayaking. Owner was super easy to work with; we would definitely rent this home again.

relaxing stay, worries melt away

Walking out onto the deck or dock just melts the stress away. The check in process was quick and easy. Tim helped made sure that we were able to get in and check out easily with detailed info and pictures. The upstairs kitchen is well stocked beautifully put together. The primary suite was large with a spacious bathroom. We enjoyed the fishing. Didn't have any keepers, but the fishing lights really helped to see the activity below. Lots of different areas to sit and enjoy the breeze and birds. The grill and firepit was a plus.

Great Stay! Great Fishing!

This place was great, and the host was awesome! The fishing was amazing! Unfortunately, the downstairs was not cleaned very well and had several bugs and a few roaches. Once we cleaned it up ourselves no issues. Overall great stay and we would rent it again.

Nice bay house

Great location on the bay and had great time there with family for 4 days. Fishing was so so. Caught some, mostly non keepers and the crabs take your bait. Typical for Galveston Bay. Unfortunately the mosquitoes were horrible by the thousands swarming everywhere which is no fault of owner. Just made it a bit miserable at times to to be outside and fish or shower and of course they find their way inside. Bring lots and lots of yard guard and OFF. Overall nice place and stay.
