Excellent short term stay

House was an excellent location for a small group to stay at for a short while. Only issue is lack of privacy. Only 2 bedrooms on the property and one has sleeping arrangements for 4 guests. So great for large families with lots of kids or a close groups of friends. Plenty of room for eating and relaxing plus close enough to drive to everything you want in Galveston.

Awesome house & host!!

House is so cute with a beachy theme throughout it. Personalized greeting on the message board. We mostly hung out downstairs or outside. Downstairs is VERY large with pool table, football, and basketball game. Outside has sitting under covered pergola with corn hole game and charcoal grill.. The backyard is HUGE! Host was very sweet and even went out of her way to help us pick up a speaker we had left in the garage. I highly recommend this place for your next trip!! Oh and the beach is a few minutes away (by car).

Very fun place!

This was a great place to stay in Galveston! Only 5 minutes from Moody Gardens and Schlitterbahn. We didn’t go to the beach this trip but it was only 5 min to the seawall as well. The first floor garage had a lot of fun activities for my kids and it was the perfect hang out spot. Only thing I can suggest is to provide more blankets (we got a little cold at night but at least the AC works good!!) We would definitely stay again. Thank you!
