10 STAR host. As usual, perfect trip. This was a “sisters” trip we take every year. We try to always rent from Ms. Margene if possible. We wish we could have stayed for a few more weeks :). Perfect location, peaceful, clean, steps away from beach, AND fabulous view. Thank you Ms. Margene for sharing your paradise… again. Teresa

Lovely home!

This house is in a great location right on the beach with close proximity to the grocery store and close enough to the ferry that we traveled to Galveston nearly every day. House was well maintained and clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing get away with fishing.

We had a wonderful time of fishing and relaxing. The house was beautiful with the gulf frontage. The beach was great for shelling, and enjoying a cup of coffee on the deck in the morning, and a glass of wine in the evening.

Relaxing escape from the city

We enjoyed our stay very much! We wanted to escape from the city and the remote feeling of this house was perfect. The only downside was the wind made the built in blinds in the primary bedroom knock against the glass all night long. It made it virtually impossible to sleep well in that room. We enjoyed being able to watch our kids from the deck while they played on the beach. It was so easy for them to walk down by themselves (ages 5 & 6).
