We had a pleasant stay. The house and the decor were really cute. Chris was very attentive to our needs. My dog really enjoyed her stay. The fenced in yard was perfect. The neighborhood was very quiet making our trip very relaxing. The beach access is exactly one mile down the road. All in all it was a nice stay.
Nice quiet off to yourself kind of place. Close to the North Jetty for some amazing fishing. Close enough to enjoy Galveston if you wanted to even though we didn’t. Close enough to Crystal Beach
We stayed at this location because it was close to the Jetty and surf fishing. Very quite location. House was very clean and nice. We would definitely stay there again.
Pineapple house was great! Would book this house again when I'm back down that way. Communication with property manager was great got all my information before I got there. Had a blast going fishing while I was there.
This house is great for pets with a fully enclosed yard. The location is really close to fishing areas and beach areas. Very quiet if you don’t count the birds. I would suggest to let people know the gate can be heavy especially if an elderly couple.
They make you feel right at home, the home is very inviting. The host was great at communicating with us about every question we had. We will definitely be staying here again.
We enjoyed our stay to the fullest! Christopher communicated with us before, during and after our stay. He is one incredible host! The house was perfect for us and our furbaby Tanner! The bed was so comfy and house was clean. We couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable vacation! We will definitely be back!
My brother and I went down for 2 nights and 3 days to fish and get away. We didnt want to be in with all the crowds so we booked twords the ferry on purpose and we couldnt have made a better choice. We were 1 block from the south bait camp and 5 minutes from frenchtown. It was the perfect place for this. The house is clean and the cookware is top shelf. I would definitely stay here again.
Took my husband for his birthday. We had a nice four day getaway. The fenced yard gave us privacy as well as plenty of room for are two fur babies. The home is in a nice relaxing neighborhood and the beach was just a short drive away.
This was our first time to stay in here. The house was clean and the owner was very responsive when we had any questions. I loved the fenced yard and sitting on the deck to enjoy the breeze. The area was quiet and there was a small beach and jetty that I could walk to.
Enjoy ship watching and bird watch on the front porch. Cant wait for this place to get a little touch on the porch and stairs but the place is clean and the owner was easy to get a hold of

Why they chose this property
This property was created in 1978 it has survived many hurricanes including Harvey and Ike. The house is completely fenced in and outside of random small rabbits, racoons or cats strolling through it is completely safe for your furry babies. Since the purchase of the house in 2022 we have been reinvesting and remodeling the house. Every stay you will see new additions and changes. We are working very hard to make this house the premier fishing destination on bolivar!
