We enjoyed our stay at Oh What Fun, it is a great location and plenty of room for the 7 of us on our Mother Daughter weekend. The kitchen is well appointed and easy to cook in. Most of the beds are comfortable. The host was easy to contact and very responsive. We really enjoyed spending our evenings outside on the covered deck. The house is good but with a little more attention to detail and a thorough cleaning the house could be exceptional!! I hope you enjoy your time in Galveston as much as we did!!

Great outdoor Patio!

We had a wonderful time at the house which is much cuter then the pictures on line. Beds were extremely comfortable and we spent a lot of our time outdoors on the upstairs patio which had a fan and a nice breeze! Would love to stay her again!

I cannot stress enough how disappointed we were with this rental. We rented this for a weekend trip with our grown kids/wife/girlfriend. When we entered the house into the living area, the first thing we see a nice kitchen straight ahead. Then it all went downhill from there. One of the 2 couches in the living area was broken down and what appeared to be chewed on the corner. It was literally like sitting on the floor. Then we see a few roaches on the floor. I understand there are roaches, but for the amount of money I paid for a weekend, I expect the dead roaches to be picked up off the floor, as well as the hairballs in the bathroom. I immediately contacted the host and they asked if I wanted the cleaning crew to come back and "touch up" which I did request. We left to go eat dinner and when we got back later, it did not appear anyone had been there as the roaches were still on the floor. We had bedrooms for everyone, so the next morning when I found one of my sons on the couch (unbroken one), I asked why he was sleeping on the couch. He said he felt bugs crawling on him a couple of times, so went to sleep on the couch. There were literally bedbugs in his bed!! Needless to say we immediately packed our things and got out of the house. Long story short, this host (a realty company) is offering me a VERY SMALL REFUND ( fraction of what I paid).DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE UNLESS THEY CAN PROVE THAT IT HAS BEEN TREATED FOR BEDBUGS!!

Good location, clean house

Overall the house was great with great location. You are close to everything with a quick short drive. The home was kept clean and felt safe during our stay. The neighborhood is older a little more run down but the gate that closes in the house and cars brings a feeling of security. The house itself is older, but this is Galveston... everything in that area is older. A couple of suggestions, the master bedroom needs a new mattress it was hard as a rock. Some doors could stand replacement and the gate could use some work so it's not so difficult to open and close.

Small Gathering

We needed a house big enough to house my friends and I for a wedding near Dickerson and this little home was perfect! We had an older set of parents who were able to take the downstairs bedroom and bath and the “younger” of us upstairs. They were super responsive with emails during our stay as we kept them up to date with info around the home I.e. light bulbs out etc. they even offered to send someone immediately to replace them. The location was amazing. It was set back some from the street so we didn’t hear passing traffic all night. We will definitely be staying again!

Awesome family and pet friendly vacation home

The house is beautiful and very clean. There is so much room inside for everybody. The yard is large and awesome for the dogs. The covered deck is a really amazing place to sit and relax in the afternoon and evening. Unfortunately the only access for one of the bedrooms is through another bedroom. The upstairs king size bed is as hard as a board and squeaks every time you move. The down stairs bedroom is the only bedroom that has a tv in it. The bbq pit is very small. Overall it’s a wonderful vacation home. Our family enjoyed our stay and we would definitely stay there again.
