Very good

The location of this property was great! It has great potential but was disappointed that we could not use the 2 bedrooms downstairs (no connection to house) due to the unfinished basement feel (all concrete). Water was covering the floor to were the bedspread was soaked and bugs all over. It did work out ok for our party of 9 because there was a pull out couch upstairs and many blankets to make floor pallets. House is also on septic so we were not allowed to flush toilet paper, causing a stinky bathroom. Probably would not return unless we had less people.
The place was big and very roomy and close to the store and being able to bring our baby furr is so much fun just like we’re back home and having the whole family having a good time and sharing moments and pictures moments is much needed thank you for sharing your place :)
This was our second year to stay at this property. We really enjoy the quiet area and the scenic views. There is a great yard for the dogs to run around in. We took jet skis and were able to tie them to the dock for the weekend so we didn’t have to get them in and out of the water. The house was super clean and the beds and couch are comfortable. The kitchen is just the right size to fix meals for a group.
We will definitely be back next year for a third time!
Location was perfect. Approx 10 mins from Galveston, lots of space
Rental process and response time was excellent. All questions were answered in a timely manner very professional and helpful

The stay was okay. The cleanliness of the bathroom, mats and toilet were not so good.
It would have been nice to know ahead of time that we could not flush anything in toilets. The insides of the kitchen cabinets were kind of dirty. Just my opinion, I'm a neat freak !
This house was 3 miles from our job site and provided a great place for my co-workers and myself to unwind after a long day. I would book again if needed!
2 bed rooms are in bad shape. Space heaters that blew breaker most of trip. Up stairs really nice..
Down Stairs bed rooms need updating espoused wires and need better A/C and Heat. There is no Internet witch is my fault for not noticing it did not claim to have internet on the listing I just assumed. The property is wright on the water you could pull a small boat in to dock. Down stairs did almost flood at high tide so be cautious about what you leave on the ground down stairs. I think Nice weather so you are not relying on a/c and heat down stairs and a little updates to down stairs bed rooms and this would be a great place to stay with the family or any other group. As you can probably tell from my review I was not expecting run down bed rooms down stairs and space heaters for heat. Besides that the rest of the place was great.
I received an anonymous msg the day we were to check-in telling me that they knew where I would be and how long I would be there. We did not feel safe staying there.
We had the best weekend. The house was clean and spacious and we loved the quiet. We caught carb and my son went fishing. I have no complaints. We will definitely be back.
We enjoyed the downstairs a lot! We spent most of our time there. We would love to stay again. Our only concern was the couch was extremely uncomfortable and hopefully she will update that soon.
So nice to stay here! Jillena is so helpful and friendly to talk to. I highly recommend the stay. The bar area and huge decks are a very nice place to spend your evenings with your favorite beverage.
