About this property

Blue Bay Waterfront Retreat – 230 ft Private Pier + Steps to Kemah Boardwalk!

Welcome to *Blue Bay*, your private waterfront escape in the heart of the iconic Kemah Boardwalk and Lighthouse District—where coastal charm meets unforgettable experiences. This beautifully renovated, pet-free and smoke-free home is designed for families and groups looking to relax, reconnect, and enjoy the best of bayfront living. With sweeping views of Galveston Bay, four private balconies, and space for 15–16 guests, every moment here feels like a getaway. Start your mornings with coffee and breathtaking sunrises over the water, spend your days exploring nearby restaurants, rides, and shops, and end your evenings with cool coastal breezes and peaceful bay views. Inside, the home offers three spacious levels of comfort and entertainment—from the lively ground-floor game room featuring pool, ping pong, foosball, and a media area, to the bright open-concept second floor with a fully equipped kitchen, dining space, and cozy living room perfect for gathering and movie nights. Upstairs, the third floor provides a serene retreat with a luxurious primary suite, additional 2 bedrooms, Smart TVs in every room, and private balcony access for soaking in the views any time of day. Step outside and the experience only gets better—a private 230-foot pier invites you to fish, crab, or simply unwind over the water as boats drift by and stars fill the sky. At *Blue Bay*, you’re not just booking a stay—you’re creating lasting memories filled with laughter, relaxation, and the calming rhythm of the bay.

About the host

Hosted by Hailey

Host profile image
As avid travelers, we value hospitality and know what makes a short-term rental work. Blue Bay has recently undergone a complete renovation and we have it comfortably stocked. There is water and soda in the refrigerator, coffee to be brewed, and snacks in the kitchen to hold you off until your next meal. You’ll also find dishwashing tablets underneath the kitchen sink and the usual in-bathroom toiletries that you might have forgotten. It is our greatest hope that our home brings you many cherished times and that we have thought of much to make your stay an enjoyable one.

Why they chose this property

We have called Clear Lake, Texas, home for thirty years; our Blue Bay Home, located in the heart of Kemah Boardwalk, has been the perfect place to unwind. It’s a place where we gather with friends and family, play, fish, boat, and take in Texas Rayleigh Blue skies, porch side, over the coastal breezes of Galveston Bay; it is our pleasure to share it with you and yours.
