We had a great vacation in Quintana at the Lighthouse for the week. The owners are wonderful and the place was wonderful. The house was clean, stocked and the deck was wonderful. The beach was one block away and even our dog enjoyed the Lighthouse:) We hope to go back soon...

I was born and raised in the Freeport-Quintana area and our parents retired and sold the family home and moved to East Texas. Renting the Lighthouse was like going home for my family and I, the pictures online doesn't do it justice, the home was very nice and well kept, and Mrs. Alonis is an excellent host. My family and enjoyed are stay very much as brief as it was, and look forward to visiting the Lighthouse again.

What a wonderful get a way for us! The "Other" house was everything we could imagine and more. The decor and furnishings were completely comfortable and made us feel right at home. There was nothing we could have needed as everything is there. Thank you for sharing this with us, and we will be making the trip again next year in early spring.

I stayed there last weekend and had a blast,My wife and myself were there with our best friends Julie/jaymie. What a nice place, hoping to return soon for another trip.I would recommend this to anyone, the house had everything that you could need,except an XRAY machine.We weren't there 2 hours already and I tripped on the jetty and fractured my hand.No fault except my own.Just another good story to be told about the vacation.I would give your place a 10 rating anytime.Can't wait until we return. THANKS AGAIN.

My daughter, granddaughter and myself stayed mid-August, 2008 and had a fantastic time. Wonderful place to stay, GREAT hosts. We really enjoyed watching for the different birds, listening to the owl, walking on the beach at night chasing the crabs. Hope to visit again soon!!!!

Have been worried sick about you guys ever since Ike started heading for the Texas coast! So glad to find a website with some info on Quintana since the local news has just been covering bigger areas like Surfside/Galveston/Houston. Nice to know you are okay.

July 30-Aug. 2, 2008, our stay at your darling "lighthouse" was wonderful, it is equipped with everything we needed. We enjoyed the walks along the beach, collecting sea shells and each other's company. The lighthouse is totally what we were looking for. Our girls will certainly remember this vacation forever. We are all looking forward to seeing you again next summer.

We visited the Lighthouse May 16-18 and fell in love with it. It was everything and more of what we expected. The owners went out of their way to make sure our stay was perfect. Can't say enough. Will be back as soon as I can get a reservation!

We spent 3 of the best days you could have. Private with a wonderful view from the beutiful deck. I really cant say enough about this cute home. A big plus is the fishing pier just a short walk down the road. The lot is spacious and the owners were wonderful hosts with quite a bit of history and a lot of hard work and heart invested in one of the last truly quiet beach areas left. I will be comming back again and again. Loved it.

The lighthouse is the perfect vacation house! We live fairly close, but wanted to spend the night fishing and visiting with a few friends. This house was very welcoming, extra clean, and had everything you can need. We also found the the lighthouse child-friendly with videos, games, and books on hand. There were extra supplies stocked up that made it "just like home." The back deck looking over the ocean was incredibly relaxing and included a BBQ pit. But, what set this house apart from the others is the lit up fishin pier located at the end of the road (we stayed out there all night). We will be another of the many familys that are regulars there, as it was a A+ experience for all!

EXCELLENT accommodations / terrific location. Lacked for nothing. Owner accessibility a real plus if there had been problems, but there were none. Very tastefully decorated. Especially enjoyed the view from the large back deck. Can't wait to come back ...

It is a very comfortable little house that is like having your own private home. Whether you are walking the beach or using it as a base to visit the many state parks and multitudinous historic sites up and down the Texas Gulf coast or visiting Houston or Galveston, you have so many options that we could have stayed longer than two weeks and still not have seen everything. Great time. A lot of thought and care have gone into creating this ambiance.
