The beach was a very close walk. The kitchen had everything we needed. We loved that the yard was fenced in. If you have a small dog, there is one little section at the front where they can escape. We watched our little dog and it was not a problem. The master bedroom and bath were a nice size. We would definitely stay there again!

Galveston beach house review

We enjoyed our stay in Galveston. The house location was perfect for spending time at the beach and easy walking access to good restaurants. The house is furnished very nicely and the layout is very user friendly. The property is very well protected with fence and gates and carport.

We really enjoyed our stay! Extremely pet friendly even had little treats for our fur babies. Loved the back yard and very conveniently located. The kids enjoyed the place and we loved that we had to full bathrooms. We were able to park our vehicle under the covered area and close the gate behind it which made us feel extra secure and safe. Would definitely stay here again!

Cute, convenient, clean, & quiet.

Was a perfect spot for the whole family. We walked to 4 different restaurants and a convenient store when we ran out of milk. There was a wagon to get all the stuff down the street to the beach and a pack & play with clean sheets when we arrived. It was comfortable, clean, & quiet. Would definitely stay again.

Family Stay

We enjoyed our stay at this comfortable home. The owner is responsive and available to answer questions. It was easy to access through the key lock box. They provide nice touches to the property to make sure you have what you need for your stay. It is two blocks from the beach, so very accessible. We walked to the beach and used the wagon to haul our gear.

College drop off

Rented this house for the week while we were visiting and dropping off our son at college.It was very convenient to many restaurants and the beach. The house is great for two adults and maybe two children. The living room eating quarters are very tight. Would be hard to relax. Watch TV with more than three or four people. Had all the amenities needed for cooking in and a nice outdoor back area with a grill.Unfortunately, it was just too hot to be outsideWould definitely rent this place again

Even better than the listing implies. Great location. Beautiful little house. Small but plenty of space. You will not go wrong. All you need are your clothes and shoes. Can see the water from the upstairs. Had a problem with the front door lock but got it straightened out within minutes.
