The house was very clean and very lovely. Quick walk to the seawall. This house is a historic home so you do need to use a little caution and a little extra TLC while staying there but otherwise the place was perfect and the hosts were very responsive..
We had a great time, and it was super comfortable stay. We love that everyone had a comfy place to sleep and there was lots of room to relax, play games, and have fun together.Thanks for a great stay!
We enjoyed our stay here. The check in was easy. Met Joe and Joyce and they are very friendly and welcoming. The home is older but a historic beauty, in my opinion. If we did well as visitors we would love to stay again.

Thank you we enjoyed our little visit with you. You’re always welcome to come back. You guys done an excellent job taking care of the house. Hope to see you soon thanks once again.
This home had everything our group of 7 adults needed. The location near the seawall was perfect and we all enjoyed our stay. Easy check-in/check-out and responsive hosts. We would recommend this home to anyone visiting the area.
Was really happy with the location of the homes less than a 5 minute walk to the beach! There was plenty of room and beds for my party of 5, and the hot tub was a great bonus! The host was very quick to respond to any questions and we really enjoyed our stay, and it was even better that we were able to bring our small dogs with us. It is a historical home, so rightfully the owners want to preserve it and have some rules like no rolling suitcases on the wood floors, but we had no issues following them.

Thank you! We are glad you enjoyed your stay. Come see us again!
Nice beach house for family and close to the seawall
Joyce and Joe were great hosts and so convenient that they were just in the house behind the rental when we had some issues with the TV reception- lovely front porch to sip your favorite breakfast beverage and feel the breeze off of the sea. This place had lots of room for family getaways to Galveston. My family and I look forward to our next trip to this cute beach home.
The home is just lovely!! We loved this house. The location was perfect. Even with kids, it was easy back and forth to the beach. We were very comfortable and everything we needed was there. The hosts were so nice and easy to contact. Great place to stay in Galveston!
