About this property

BEAUTIFUL 5-BEDROOM HOUSE WITH HEATED SWIMMING POOL, GAS GRILL, LARGE DECK

Dear potential guests. We thank you for looking at our wonderful home. If you would do us a favor, please read all of the information listed here. We have a list of potential fees you may encounter when booking. Thank you for your time.

One bedroom with a queen-size bed with a full bathroom. Also a bedroom with 2 full-size bunk beds with gaming TV. Then downstairs, we have a bedroom with 2 queen beds and another bedroom with a queen-size bed, and a full-size bathroom. The living room has a sectional sofa, with additional chairs for plenty of seating. A 60" Smart HDTV. Great location! Only 4.5 blocks from the seawall and 1 mile from the strand. Beautiful heated pool for relaxing after a day at the beach. Please understand this pool is only 5 feet deep and it is NOT for diving and is heated from November to March to about 85 degrees. There is plenty of deck space that is covered along with a ceiling fan for your comfort. A gas grill for your cooking pleasure and an outdoor table and chairs.

For events, we do not allow more than 20 guests at the home, including the 14 who may stay overnight.

Possible fees each will be charged at the time of booking or just after.
Nightly rental fee
State and City Hotel Taxes of 15% Total. HomeAway collects the taxes
A cleaning fee of $190 for your stay

Please note, on certain days the pool company will come into the driveway gate to service the pool. It is usually in the morning about 9 am. Also, housekeeping could show up at 11 am on departure days, especially if another guest is checking that afternoon.

PLEASE clean the grill after each use, this helps the next guest and housekeeping, enjoy the grill when they arrive. Let Richard know if a propane bottle is empty.

To decrease litter on the beach and protect marine life, the City of Galveston has implemented a City Ordinance (No 19-017 Secs 8-27) that states all items left on the beach after sunset will be discarded. The Galveston Park Board strictly enforces the ordinance.

Another great stay!

Our group has stayed many times and this was another great stay. The house has everything you need but the star of the show is the backyard. Even in summer the patio provides a nice outdoor stay and the pool is big enough for a larger group to spread out and float around.

We had the best time, location was great, parking for 3 off road and 1 on road (with ample space). Kitchen equipped with just about anything you need. Pool is heated but didn't get warm enough for us to use. Internet did not work, but we didn't call because we were not on phones that much. The beds were comfy and towels plenty.
