House had everything you could need (except pizza tray). Liveley and clean and very comfortable. Perfect for a couple and a very quick hop, skip, and a jump to the beach.

Nice quiet stay

Stayed here with my wife the night before we boarded a cruise for our honeymoon. We enjoyed the location. Quiet, peaceful and only a short drive from all the fun things in Galveston. Also a few minutes' walk to the beach. Cottage was everything advertised, and we both enjoyed our stay.

Great get away

This was a wonderful, peaceful get away for me and my husband. Home was very clean, bed was comfy but could have had a couple more pillows. Great outdoor space and you can view the Golf from the deck. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect getaway

This house was the perfect getaway for my teenage son and I. Really close walk to the beach without having to worry about the hustle and bustle of the strand traffic. Close to the fishing pier as well. The house was clean and adorable with everything we needed!
