Perfect for family weekend!

We had tons of room for all 16 of us and the beach was just a quick walk and near the Pleasure Pier. Beds and pillows were super comfy and that was the best sleep we have had in years! Definitely recommend for location and comfiness!

It was the perfect place for our family of 11. Each family had their own room and we loved the open area of living room and kitchen so that we could visit, enjoy conversation, etc. The communication was amazing. It was nearly real time! After a day of questions we had everything we needed to enjoy our time.We hope to stay again on a future Galveston trip. Thank you for allowing our family to stay at your wonderful property.

Great Place Close to the Beach

We had a really nice time at this house. It was close to the beach and within walking distance of near by restaurants. The ocean was really rough and it was quite windy every day which caused us to be a little cold on the beach. The neighbors were very friendly as well!

Property is nice. Well stocked. The description should be updated to clarify that one of the upstairs rooms has its own bathroom and that the sunroom access is through one of the downstairs bedrooms and does not have its own separate door. There were some concerns about the neighbors, who were rude, but overall very nice stay.

Pre cruise stop

Stay was good walking distance to most everything however cleanliness of the inside could have been better two cockroaches were found. Owner was very friendly and easy too talk too and accommodated us very nicely with everything. Neighbors were a bit noisy with their loud cars. Other than that very nice place too stay

USMC reunion

A dozen of us stayed for a long weekend. The house was just what we needed. The rooms were comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was well equipped. The living room was big enough for the whole group to sit and socialize. The house is located close enough to walk to the beach, and very near to restaurants and attractions. It was perfect for our group to get together for a long weekend.

Awesome Stay

This is an older property that had a lot of spunk! The owner was very responsive to text. My grandbabies enjoyed it so much and so did my older kids. It accommodated all ages from 11 months to 96 years old. We were able to walk to the beach, restaurants and pier. Thank you so much. We made wonderful memories!

We had several families very full , several families in town with houses. Around town their houses host wasn't as nice. Every room was decorated, very beachy.Oceany, we got to walk to the beach every day.We got to walk to the pleasure pier, the Murdock pretty much anywhere we wanted was walking distance. The neighbor in the brown house was thw swertest lady. Seeing the crusie ship from the house was such a highlight of our trip. The wifi held up to all these kids ,lol definitely a plus. I would definitely book a stay at thid house again for n our future visit.

Perfect for our family

We had a wonderful time! The house was perfect for us. We had elderly grandparents, adults, a teenager, kids, and two toddlers with us. It was an easy walk to the beach and to Pleasure Pier, even with toddlers. It's a great location! The house was fully stocked with everything we could need. Cooking in the kitchen was so easy thanks to the thoughtful stocking of kitchen and dining items. We did a lot of cooking! There were plenty of comfortable bedroom. We loved the charm of the house and we had a wonderful time sitting on the deck in the mornings and evenings. It's a great property.
