Our family had another great stay at this lovely home over the Thanksgiving holiday. Beds are very comfortable and we had plenty of room for 3 adults and 4 teenagers. Lots of seating at mealtime and the kitchen is well-stocked with pots, pans, and utensils. Communication with the host is quick and the neighborhood is beautiful. Highly recommend this property.
We loved all the original details of the home and it was well kept. The only negative was not receiving code to the property before arriving, but property manager was easy to contact and fixed the problem right away. Home had nice amenities and we would stay there again.

Thanks so much Lisa, we'll be sure to provide the code a bit earlier next time. We're so happy you enjoyed your time with us and appreciated our historical home! We'd love to host you again in the future!
We had a family gathering for my mother-in-law’s 85th birthday over a three day weekend. Our group included 2 couples in their early 30’s, one with an infant and toddler, us, my mother-in-law and my husband’s cousin. The rooms were perfect for our group, even though the room with the queen bed and twin that my mother-in-law stayed in was on the second floor. The screened-in porch was a favorite gathering place for the group as the weather in late October was mild. The neighborhood is in a lovely part of Galveston in easy walking distance to the beach. We took walks every day and enjoyed the beautiful historic homes in the neighborhood. The host was extremely responsive and we had no trouble with check-in. I would not hesitate to rent this home again and highly recommend it to others.
We enjoyed 3 nights. The 2 story home includes two bedrooms upstairs (20 steep steps up). One a king in suite bathroom with walk in shower. Second room has double bed, single bed and bunkbeds with in suite bath with big walk in shower. First floor has 2 bedrooms with king beds. They share the only bathroom on the first floor. Bathroom is small with only a tub, no walk in shower so guest that want to shower will have to walk upstairs for a shower. King beds are very comfortable. Kitchen has everything you will need. A large screened porch and a dining room and living room. Parking is one car in the driveway and others on street. Plenty of room to park on street. A great home in a great location.
