Family vacation

This house is a beautiful property and it’s just a short walk to the beach! We had 6 adults and 4 children and were very comfortable with the space and amenities. Our host was prompt with all my questions prior to our stay. Would definitely recommend this property for anyone looking to getaway and be close to the beach with or without family in tow

Great Stay!

Our stay was perfect. It’s a great location. One morning we drove a short drive to get on the ferry and had lunch in Galveston. Kids loved it! Easy to walk to the beach but we rented a golf cart and loved it. We really enjoyed the swings the house had. We would relax down there every evening after the beach. The house was clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful Stay

This is a great location for everything! We enjoyed the beach view, and the very short drive to the Ferry. We drove each day to the Ferry to go into the City of Galveston (so much better than staying in the city). We had a 1 and 2 year old with us so we did have to move the decorations out of reach but 10/10 recommend. Also a added note (if you have kids) the Master closet is big enough for a pack n play which was a game changer!

Yearly Beach Cabin

This was the 7th year in a row me and 5 of my childhood friends all met up to watch the opening weekend of the NFL. Hands down of the 7 cabins, this has by far been the most clean, organized, most accommodationing, and up to date cabin we have stayed in. Very new feel with everything from the bathrooms, washer and dryer, kitchen counter, living room, and of course all the bedrooms. TV was provided which was a huge plus. Also, everyone agreed that all the beds were very comfortable. The host was super easy to communicate with and even allowed a early check-in. Hope this property continues to stay available, as we would definitely re-book here.

The most loveliest of stays!!

This was my family's first experience renting a beach house.. and honestly, you just never know. We were AMAZED at how clean this place was. That's how I judge a place. The aesthetic of the home, the layout, the close proximity to the beach (without the mosquitos that stay close to the dunes).. all of it was just lovely! Everything we needed was available. We cooked all of our meals in the kitchen and on the grill. The beds were so comfortable! The host allowed us in a tad bit earlier which was HUGE! We were able to go in, get organized and head to the beach. We have found the home we want to visit yearly. 10/10 would recommend!!

Comfortable and peaceful

My sister-in-law and I stayed in this home to recharge our batteries, read, browse the island, and catch up. The beds are awesome. We both said the same thing, that we slept so well. We leave today fully rested and a little sad our stay is over. The furnishings are excellent. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Home away from home-Beach edition

This home is beautiful! It has a wonderful layout with gorgeous furnishings and decor. Our family was very comfortable here. As we read in other reviews, the beds and linens were super comfortable. We liked the fact the queen beds were solidly built and so were the bunk beds. No rickety metal in this house. The kitchen was a dream to work in and we like to cook. We wished there was a griddle for pancakes but we made due with the large pan. The large master suite was great for my folks and as it’s tucked away behind the kitchen gave a lot of privacy. Our kids loved the swing and the deck that went all the way around. This house is close to the beach but we were really glad that we rented a golf cart to haul our canopies and chairs down to the beach and also for cruising the beach and neighborhood. The only thing this house doesn’t have is a great view but you still get the ocean breeze on the upper deck. We just loved this house. So clean, so calm, so perfect!
