Easy check in, and easy to find. The house was very clean. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, coffee, and cookware (we didn’t use that). The bedroom with the bunk beds was missing real pillows and had throw pillows only on the bed but we found some extra pillows in a closet. The couch was nice but not very comfortable or big. Smart tvs were in every room which was great. We loved the front porch also. This was convenient to Kemah, where our family is. We would stay here again.

Great weekend vacation!

We had a great time in San Leon! This house suited our needs- we had all the beds we needed for our family. Everything was clean. Linens/Towels were provided. We found everything we needed in the kitchen as well. The host was very prompt in replying. Thanks for a great weekend!

Comfortable Getaway

This property is very comfortable and the kitchen is well appointed. We enjoyed just hanging out by the fire pit and being able to walk to the water. Great house with amazing communication from the hosts. Definitely recommend and would stay again. Oh! And the fresh eggs were such a nice surprise and so delicious!

The Best Little Kept Secret

This little Cottage stay was just what our family needed! Beautifully Simplistic!!! Each little detail was thoughtfully done. If we needed it, it was there. From Q-tips, plenty of towels, fully 'CLEAN' and stocked kitchen, pots and pans, to the large blocks of ice cubes for my husband's favorite drink an " Old Fashioned"! I am very particular about cleanliness and where I lay my head, and this home was very clean. We have 3 teens, and it was nice spending some quality time without the distractions of video games and extra TVs. We watched movies as a family together, cooked together, and played games together. If you are looking for a quiet, safe place to unplug and get back to the basics, this is the PLACE!!! It was about 30 minutes from Pleasure Pier and 25 minutes from the Space Center, but Kemah Boardwalk was about 15 minutes.
