At The Skipper, wake up to a breathtaking sunrise from the deck, enjoy your morning coffee to the sound of the waves, then stroll across the street to a quiet car-free beach — everything you need for the perfect Gulf Coast day, right outside your window. This breezy second-row beach home sleeps up to 6 with two bedrooms, three queen beds, a fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, and Roku Smart TVs. The ideal escape for couples, families, or small groups — everything you need, nothing you don't.
THE VIEW & DECK
Watch and listen to the sea from the spacious deck, and catch the same views from the living, dining, and kitchen windows.
THE BEACH
A short stroll across the street takes you to a peaceful, pedestrian-only beach — no cars, just sand and surf. An outdoor shower with hot and cold water is ready when you return.
THE LOCATION
Far enough from the crowds to feel like a true escape, yet about 20 minutes from Galveston's main attractions. A grocery store, gas station, and restaurant are right next door — you may not need your car at all.

Home Truths
• Best for 4–5 adults (plus children). We've happily hosted parties of six, but with one bathroom and our seating layout, four or five adults is the sweet spot.
• Single-story home and lower to the ground than most beach houses. The outdoor stairway is open-air but partially covered by the roof overhang.
• Limited infant gear — the home is not set up for babies. The house guide has local equipment rental info.
• Checkout chores — guests are asked to handle a few light tasks to help us turn the home quickly and keep costs down. You can opt out for a small fee paid before your stay.
• Wi-Fi is provided via cable internet. We can't guarantee third-party signal quality, though it is generally reliable.
