Originally built to house workers constructing the seawall after the devastating 1900 hurricane, this unique property offers a glimpse into the past while providing modern amenities for a comfortable stay.

With fishing charters, seafood markets, and a variety of dining options nearby, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
Inside the house, you'll find a blend of historic charm and modern comforts. Central AC keeps you cool on warm Texas days, while amenities like Internet, a fully equipped kitchen, and a DVD library ensure a relaxing stay.

Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, this house offers the perfect retreat for your Galveston getaway.

Whether you're strolling along the seawall, exploring local museums, or simply soaking up the sun on the beach, this house provides a comfortable and convenient home base for your coastal adventures.
