Daughter Birthday party

We enjoyed our stay for the weekend. The house was very clean, great location. The rooms were very big and beds were comfortable. The only thing is that their were tons of roofing nails that we had to pick up so no one got hurt.

Freeport Getaway

The house was very pretty and clean. Our favorite part was the open plan living room and kitchen area where we got to hang out and play games. We also loved how close the beach was. Everything was perfect and we were very happy with our stay.

Great location!

It was a quick weekend get away for my family and I. The house was the perfect size for all 11 of us. It was fully stocked with everything we needed. The best part was location! When not on the beach, we sat on the deck watching the waves come in. Even though the house sits on the second row you still get a great view of the ocean!

Wonderful time at surfside

We had a wonderful time at this home, beautiful and comfortable inside and outside on the deck. Anytime we had any questions they were attended to very quickly. I love that you could see the beach from the deck and it was easy access. Would definitely come again 😀

Nice Beach Home

The property was really nice. We had seven kids with us and the house accommodated us perfectly. It's been renovated recently. If you are a fan of Surfside, this is a great little place to call home for your beach getaway.

A Shore thing is a sure thing!

This was the perfect house for our family of 11! Matt, our host, was very courteous and always got back with answers to any questions I might have had. The house was lovely and set up perfectly for us. The only bad thing about the whole stay was that is didn’t last long enough! We can’t wait to go back!

A Shore Thing is a sure thing!

Vacation on Surfside Beach was awesome for my nieces and their families. I rented this lovely beach house for my nieces and their families. There was lots room for all 10 of them and probably could have had for a couple more people. The location was great, short walk to the beautiful beach and not far of you wanted to go into Galveston. The house was very clean and had a large open living room /kitchen area. Our Host Matt was very quick to response to questions and got back quickly. Definitely would love to come back.

Cute House, too hot

The house is cute and very nicely equipped. Location right next to beach is excellent. We left a day early because we couldn’t sleep well- the AC couldn’t keep the home cool enough for indoor comfort. Maybe bring extra fans if you can. The mosquitos on the walk from the property to the beach were very intense- clouds of them. Maybe because of recent storms. I would bring lots of repellant. We were unaware that the local water situation was not potable. This house has a reverse osmosis system at the kitchen sink, which is a very nice feature. but had we known about the water ahead of time we would have been able to bring our own bottled as well.

Awesome House very close to beach

This property was great. One short walk between the two houses on the first row and we were at the beach! House had plenty of dishes, pots and pans as well. There were lots of games we played when it got too dark for the little ones to be at the beach. Beds are comfortable, towels were great quality and the whole home set up was awesome. Plenty of space! Beach can be seen from chairs on porch. My kids range in age from 3 to 18 and everyone had an amazing time!

Beautiful property!

If you are looking for an affordable family get away right near the beach, this is the place for you! The house is very well kept, with beautiful interiors and a stunning view of the ocean. There was plenty of room for our family (8 adults, 4 children). We had an amazing time. The only thing that you should be aware of is that although it is listed as a 4 bedroom, it isn’t, it is a 3 bedroom. This resulted in my husband and our two boys having to unexpectedly share a room with my sister and her friend (which is really no problem for us, but I assume it could be a problem for other families).

Nice Beach house / Great location

This beach house was everything we expected and more, it was steps away from the beach and and a big balcony to sit outside and watch the waves. My family of 7 had plenty of room and everyone had a good time. I dealt with Matt when setting up the rental and he was awesome, answered any questions quick and had great customer service. I will say the only con of staying at this particular beach house is that the owner of the house watches you through their security camera on the balcony. I would most definitely stay here again and just cover or unplug the balcony camera the next time.

Review

House was clean and they did a good job with remodel. My complaint is that the owner has a NEST thermostat and continuously changes it to the middle 70s. Also the refrigerator and the microwave are both very small. Lastly, there are cameras on the patio and grilling area, which seems a little creepy since you are at the beach and most ppl are wearing bathing suits.

Pre Spring-Break break

What a great place to relax! The spaciousness of the cottage was a welcome sight. A large family area with lots of games and reading material. The porch has two picnic tables and lots of extra chairs. The kitchen is well stocked. We boiled snow crab and bbq’d hamburgers. Everything we needed was there. The beach is a short walk over the sand dunes. It is well kept and patrolled by local law enforcement. There was a large driftwood tree, just past the sand dunes, on the beach. It was the perfect place to set up our bonfire. If you forget anything, there is a convenience store up the road. They also sell fishing licenses and souvenirs. There are restaurants and a bar minutes away. Golf carts are allowed on the beach and there is a rental place nearby. Surf Side is so different from Galveston, much more family friendly and less crowded. It was a great weekend. My family really enjoyed themselves. We will be back.

Perfect Beach House

This beach house was in a great location, great view, beautiful updates & perfect set-up, awesome open concept!! The extra long Island made the open concept kitchen/ living room perfect. There were 7 of us 15 - 45yr and this home could not have been more perfect. Our only complaint were the mosquitoes!!! They were terrible on the bottom level when there was no wind. Some citronella tiki torches were available. Still need to BRING YOUR OWN SPRAY!! They are also worse in the dunes, we could not walk to the beach. My boys tried & were attacked, left w/welts all over!
