Good Times were had by all

Very comfortable for three people, in a convenient location if you rent a car. Not perfect if you have mobility issues, but doable. Lockbox proved difficult to open, but owners/managers were very responsive. We would stay again.

Galveston vacation

The state was nice. The property manager was helpful. Cute little Home to stay in for a vacation. The only reason why it has three stars is because the washing machine did not work. Other than that, the stay was very enjoyable. We will be staying again in the future. Thanks, God bless.
