Wonderful get away/perfect location

My friends and family were in need of a getaway and this house rental was the ideal place. There was plenty of parking, to get to the beach was just down the street (there is an entrance with parking straight from the house) or just a lovely 5 min walk. We will definitely book this place again, when we left we accidentally left a family memento and the manager quickly and kindly shipped it to us immediately. Loved the stay and can’t wait to stay again.

Great for the most part

The kids did find a condom wrapper and the oven had grease at the bottom which we quickly found out when making dinner. Fire ants on the property we werent aware of and my 4 year old got attacked by them. Other than that great stay!

Very cute house with a great location

This house was perfect for our group. It had plenty of sleeping space and it seemed very cute. There were plenty of bath towels left for us. The location was perfect, as we have other friends in Sea Isle. Would rent this property again.

Sleeps numerous guests

Was a very nice set up for large parties. Plenty of sleeping room. Two video games for kids or adults to play upstairs. I wasn't too satisfied that we couldn't check in two hours early without a charge of 75.

Lone star weekend

Overall pleased with the rental! Adequate space and parking for my family. Far enough from the seawall for peace and quiet, close enough to enjoy all the attractions of Galveston. Owner of property was great with communication and very friendly. My ONLY suggestion is to have a covering for the patio! Other than that, great rental, would stay again and recommend to family/friends.

Nice property

This is a nice house. It is further out than I thought. It is about 20 minutes from the businesses in Galveston proper. That’s not necessarily bad, just a little unexpected. Easy access to public beach.

Upon arrival, the house smelt clean!! That made me happy from the start. Everything was great! I do suggest new mattresses as you could feel the springs through them. Also, mosquitos are horrible! Bring spray! We rented a golf cart and explored the area! Really fun! Great place!

Girls trip

Short girls trip, just to get away from the business of everyday life, layout and enjoy the sun! Mission definitely accomplished and we all adored this home. The decor is gorgeous, everything was brand new and appeared straight out of a magazine. There was plenty of patio furniture which was perfect because we couldn't have asked for better weather!
