Great potentials
The house was quaint with nice beach deco. We found the property easily. We were disappointed with several things like : none working microwave, none working porch light which made it hazardous going down the stairs at night. We had to small pets and they provided a cover to the couch but it was smelly and full of dog hair. We washed it for them.Thankfully we brought our own.This property has great potential but I wish it was cleaner and they paid attention to details.

Second Trip Here
This was our second time staying in this sweet and cozy home! We enjoyed how close it is to the beach and how much space there is to enjoy the yard while grilling out. We have already decided this will be an annual trip!

Perfect for two people. Tammy and Mark have done a great job. Lovely countertops in the kitchen. Consider furnishing a cutting board so they don't get messed up. We have more to explore in Galveston. We'll be going back. 👍

Great place, great location
Great location, easy to find and plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 dogs. With a medium and a large dog kennel set up we still had plenty of space. Our pups loved the fenced in yard. We loved the outdoor seating, we drank our coffee outside each morning. We loved the option of having access to bikes, but our weekend was too short and we ran out time to use them. All the instructions were clear and straight forward, we had no issues and absolutely enjoyed our stay.

Quiet and cute
Property is cute and nicely appointed inside. Bed was very comfortable. Yard is big if you bring along your pups. Kitchen has everything you need for your stay Downsides: AC unit was very dirty and was dropping black chunks into the sink. Front door was dirty on the inside along with bathroom floors esp round the toilet. Yard still had animal droppings from previous guests. Cockleburrs in the yard so check your pups when they come back inside. They are small and painful. Lights on deck steps don't work. Upsides: bikes and beach supplies were awesome. House is in a quiet area even though some of the surrounding houses are sketchy. Easy to get to anything in town esp down 25th to the seawall. Hose provided was a lifesaver coming back from the beach. House is very quiet on the inside and perfect for a couple and a pup or 2. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying here...esp if they get the cleaning issues resolved.
