About this property

Beachfront Bolivar bungalow - bring the kids, the dogs, and fishing rods!

Our Rock Lobster beach house is the perfect beach front family or fishing getaway on the Texas gulf coast. Enjoy the slower rhythms of Bolivar Peninsula while still being close to Crystal Beach. You are able to access all that Galveston has to offer with a quick trip on the ferry. Sunrise and sunset are tough to beat from the front porch with a coffee or a cocktail staring out at the unobstructed views of the ocean. Go explore the island too - rent some golf carts for beach rides, play putt putt golf, or hit up a water park. The fishing is great here too, whether you want to fish off the beach or charter a guide in the bay. We are also home to fantastic live music on the island - from a laid-back acoustic show to a full blown band rocking the house! Why go anywhere else? Come see us, relax, and stay a while!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
