What a joy to stay in this beautifully remodeled 125 year old home. The owners have thought of everything…top notch appliances, comfortable beds and furniture, and so many small details, like providing a gift basket of snacks with a bottle of wine. LOVED this place and highly recommend!

Great location! Charming cottage!

We went to enjoy Dickens on the Strand - which was wonderful. We took dining suggestions from our hosts and had fabulous food at The Steakhouse and Mama Teresa’s Flying Pizza & Italian Restaurant.We highly recommend this comfortable, cozy cottage with thoughtful amenities, such as snacks, wine, and water waiting for you upon arrival, and a variety of activities in Galveston to partake in or enjoy a quiet day on the couch watching football or on the back porch watching people enjoy working in the neighborhood garden. 🪴 We look forward to returning to this gem!

Thank you for the awesome review Terri!! We’re so glad you had a great time at Dickens on the Strand and that our dining suggestions hit the mark! It makes us happy to hear the cottage felt cozy and welcoming, and that the little touches helped make your stay even more enjoyable. The back porch and garden views are such a peaceful spot to unwind. We’d love to have you back the next time you’re in Galveston!!!

The home was clean with everything we needed for our stay. The offstreet parking was nice. We were driving a sports car which did drag some on the driveway access but it would be very good for higher profile vehicle's. The management was very responsive to all our concerns.
