About this property

Fun in the Sun at Surfside Beach.

The Beach Bothy is a charming Surfside Beach rental just a short walk from the beach. Two decks, three bedrooms, two baths. Rental includes gas grill, beach chairs and surfboard. Perfect for girls' weekends, two families or bird watching.

Artsy, mid-century décor. Fully stocked kitchen, regular coffee maker and a Keurig. Two decks. From the front one you can just see the waves of the Gulf and the back deck has a view of the Inter-coastal Waterway and great sunsets.

Guest access
Whole house. The master bedroom has a king and one twin bed. One bedroom has a queen and a twin, and the third bedroom has two sets of bunk beds with extra twin mattresses . The living room has a single futon. Propane gas grill available.

Other things to note
Everyone asks the definition of "bothy". It is a Gaelic word that means a small cottage, especially one for communal use in remote areas. Bothies are particularly common in the Scottish Highlands and are used by hikers. Everyone treats the cottage as if were their own and helps keep up the repair; often leaving something for the next guests. My friends have helped me furnish our Surfside bothy and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Please treat it as if it were your own home. Also note that the Surfside tap water is not drinkable, bottled water is provided..
You must be 25 to rent.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Live in Houston but love to visit Surfside.

Why they chose this property

As soon as I go over the bridge and see the waters of the Gulf I breathe a big sigh of relief and my blood pressure goes down. Surfside is much more relaxed the Galveston.

What makes this property unique

Cozy and decorated like a home, not a sterile rental. My friends have helped me furnish the house and it is truly a home away from home. Plenty of DVDs for the kids in the bunk room and everything you need in the kitchen.
