The house was very clean and much larger than it looks in the pictures! The beds are not the most comfortable, but we really enjoyed the stay. It’s very close to the beach and in walking distance to the marina bar and restaurant. Carla is super responsive and very nice! Overall it was a great stay! We were super happy with the location and are looking forward to staying there again in the future!

Great property and owner

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wade Inn. The property was clean and functional for our group of 4 adults and 5 teenagers. The kayaks and boat slip were great amenities. Carla was very helpful and timely in her replies to any of my questions.

galveston getaway

This ended up being a perfect pandemic vacation. We loaded up the car and drove from Austin and only left the house to go visit the Sea Isle beach which was a 2 minute drive away and not crowded at all and a quick trip to the Sea Isle store for bait and ice cream. Otherwise we hung out at the house as we had everything we needed there. The fishing and crabbing was plentiful enough to keep my 2 boys entertained... although everything was too small to try to eat. We were all exhausted after each day of sun and fresh air at the beach and fishing at the house and so slept well. Hope to visit again even when the pandemic is over.

Great getaway!

We loved the house on the canal! Loved the brightness inside. It was clean, had what we needed.....Comfy couch/beds, good water pressure in the showers. Took advantage of the kayaks on several occasions! Kids played in the canal and had a fun time! There's no ladder, so it was a bit difficult to get back up on the decking.....But they managed! Neighborhood was quiet & peaceful! We enjoyed watching the mullet fish jump 3 or 4 times in a row across the canal. Saw some pretty big fish at night under the neighbor's green light in the water. Drove down to the beach and watched the sun rise one morning. Was BEAUTIFUL! Would rent again!

Nice Getaway

First and foremost, Carla was very tentative and responded very quickly to the questions I had before we stayed at the house. The house is nice inside and out. The pics didn’t do justice for the property. We booked it initially cause of the price it was on Easter weekend. We had been looking for a couple weeks and were trying to narrow it down when we came across the “Wade inn”. I’m glad we chose this one, the kids enjoyed the tandem kayaks. There is two of them so that was a plus cause we had a 6 kids with us so sharing wasn’t an issue. The beach is just a 2 minute drive so it’s not far from the home at all. They have a bait store that closes at 9, and a marina store as well as the restaurant/bar. All of that is also about a 2 minute drive from the house. I would definitely stay here again.

no refund yet - hurricane

we got to the rental with grandkids around 5pm, by around 10:00 what should have been a tropical storm turned into a hurricane. We spent the night moving furniture around to prevent water damage, 2 window blew out, used all the towels cleaning water inside. we cleaned glass and the outside from all the palms and other stuff on property, then we put the trash from the previous tenants. We realized power was not coming back around noon and started repacking everything we unpack 18 hours earlier and we left. Power was out for 2 weeks from what we understand. I still do not have a refund or a thanks for protecting and cleanings her property. Since no return of money the grandkids did not get a vacation this year. VRBO says the owner does not respond to them. I waited a month to write this hoping for something, now I am stuck hiring an attorney I guess

Hurricanes are an unfortunate downside of life on the Gulf Coast. I started offering Debbie a trip cancellation a week before but she insisted that the storm didn’t worry her. She and her husband did an incredible job of mitigating the damage of the blown out windows which I thanked her profusely for. She should not have come, she was warned, we take storms very seriously. I approved a full refund and also offered her a free week at a later date which she used. I just now saw this Review that she wrote and am very disappointed as from my communications with her she seemed very happy and understanding that the situation was out of my control.

Great Galveston getaway with some things to be aware of!Sea Isle is a great area- walkable beach access, an awesome private fishing pier, a fantastic deck, and friendly neighbors. The perfect spot if you want to slow down and enjoy the coast. The space is great for a big group. We didn’t feel cramped with 6 adults and one older child. I would recommend for a chill beach trip. Carla was also very responsive to any questions!

Great stay

The house was as described online, accommodated my family of 6 easily. Kitchen was adequately stocked for the cooking we did. Boat slip was a little too small for our boat but we parked on the outside of the slip so it worked out.

Great getaway

We had a great time at this Sea Isle canal house. Carla was a great communicator and quick to respond. My kids loved fishing in the canal right from the edge of propery. There was even a sink outside downstairs where we could wash our hands after baiting our hooks. We also enjoyed using the kayaks that came with the property.
