Amazing Bay House!

We were a group of eight adults and this was perfect! The dock, pool, golf cart, kayaks and paddle boards were wonderful to have on site. The kitchen was great to cook in and stocked with all of the utensils and cookware that we needed...gas grill outside was a plus too. We are already trying to figure out when we can come back!

Great comfortable stay

Very clean property with plenty of space. Comfy beds and pillows. Lots of items available to use in the kitchen. Extremely quiet community. We loved the peacefulness at night time. Definitely not a party home. Mercedes communicates as needed and answers all questions promptly. My boyfriend brought his 26’ foot boat. It did not fit on the lift, however we tied it off with bumpers and that worked wonderfully! Would definitely recommend this location.

Favorite house in sea isle

This house is by far my favorite house in sea isle and I’ve rented A LOT of houses in the area. It has so much room and is so clean and neat! The hose was very responsive and really worked with us to make our stay even better! The pool was so much fun a long with the hammocks and outdoor bar! The entire outdoor area is incredible. There’s an amazing tanning deck if that’s what you want or can sit under shade by the pool on a hammock. The golf card was also a huge plus! We took it to the marina ever day for food! I will probably never rent another house in sea isle again.

Great property!

We stayed with our five preteen kids and loved it! Tons of options, house was clean and well furnished, and we have no complaints! Everyone enjoyed the kayak and paddle boards in the canal, and the pool was great for evenings. The location was a bit farther out from Galveston than initially realized but we easily could drive for “in town” entertainment. Would stay again and highly recommend!

Friends Getaway

What an amazing experience! My husband and I along with our best friends have made several vacation trips to Galveston over the years. But we have never stayed in a house located on the canals. First the house is exactly how it is advertised. Located only 2 rows from bay. So convenient, just a short golf cart ride to marina, boat ramp, fishing pier, small store and restaurant, as well as beach access. House was exceptionally clean, outdoor area was perfect-pool, grill, fishing, kayaks, paddle boards, outdoor shower and several sitting areas. The outdoor heaters were also nice because of cooler evenings. Instructions provided for check in/check out made everything so simple. We hope to make it annual trip!

We absolutely loved this home. We have rented in Galveston multiple times and this was the best home. It has everything you could need and the property manager is amazing. I am already planning another trip back to this home. Fishing is great, the pier and dock are amazing. The golf cart makes getting around fun and easy. Great restaurant/ bar, bait shop, and general store a 3 minute golf cart ride away.
