About this property

Canal House: Family Friendly, crabbing, fishing and more!

Registration STR22-00018 This is a beautifully remodeled home sitting on a canal perfect for crabbing and swimming and all your family fun! The large yard is gated for your pets to run free. There is a boat slip for those that want to do some bay fishing. We have 2 adult size kayaks and life jackets. There are many other amenities like sand toys as well and a crab trap.
The first room has a comfortable king bed while the second room is great for an entire family or just the kids. It has a double bed, 2 twins and a futon plus a TV! It is the best of both worlds, sit near the water and take a short 3 minute drive to the beach!

Spring Break 2023
We had a lovely time. The house was styled/updated nicely and very clean. It was the perfect size for our family of 4 with room to spare. It was chilly and rainy so we didn’t get to use the kayaks or enjoy the outside as much as we would have liked but the deck and downstairs would be so enjoyable during warmer weather. Overall, a nice place to stay in Jamaica.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Whitlow 409-974-6038

Host profile image
I grew up in Sugar Land, TX. I spent many weekends visiting Galveston growing up. My husband and I graduated from Texas A&M Galveston and that is where we fell in love with the Island life. We have three children, two dogs and one cat. We have lived abroad and that is when we were blessed enough to buy a vacation home in Jamaica Beach and now share it with others to love as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Welcome to our beautiful home! Our house is situated on a canal that is perfect for swimming, fishing and catching crabs. Crab trap included and if that’s not your thing then just hang out, listen to music and enjoy the views. It is a quiet street so perfect for families or couples.
The kitchen has all your cooking needs including a kuerig and a coffee pot. There are plenty of pots, pans, dishes and more to enjoy a night in.
We are shaded downstairs all day with a nice breeze most of the time. Downstairs there are two tables for plenty of seating whether you are bbqing (grill included) or trying your luck at fishing. There is an enclosed shower with hot and cold water to rinse off after a day at the beach. Sand toys and two children life vest are included in the brown box near the shower for your convenience.

The upstairs deck is spacious and a great place to sit at night while enjoying the breeze. Please know that the canal is shallow so do not jump off the top deck for your safety.
We love to spend the day in the canal floating on rafts and swimming. Please be mindful the bulkheads do have oyster shells so use the ladder to avoid any scratches.

What makes this property unique

Golf cart community so rent a golf cart for more fun and easier access to the beach!

The beach is just a quick 5 minute drive away.

Jamaica Beach is its own community filled with restaurants, a bar, a coffee and wine bar, two gas stations that have hot food and all your basic needs.

There are so many fun things to do in Galveston (Schlitterbahn Waterpark Galveston, Moody Gardens, Children Museums, Tours, The Strand, Opera House, Pleasure Pier and more).

A boat lift is available. Please enquire prior to ensure your boat does fit in the lift.

Pet policy: We are a family of pet lovers and wouldn’t make you think of leaving them home. Please notify of pets you intend to bring in advance and kindly pick up after them before leaving. Please be kind and note of any damages pets may make so we can fix before the next renters.
