Great property!
Wonderful stay at this property. House was clean and owner was easy to communicate with. Owner provided a lot of extra amenities as well. Very pleasant experience. The house is a two-bedroom house with a media room, living room, and large dining room. Kitchen was well stocked. The initial listing shows the house about 3 blocks closer to the boardwalk than it actually is. Still walkable if you don't mind a long walk. My family's preference was to drive due to the distance and we had our elderly mom/grandma with us. The house is phenomenal and there is plenty of parking at the boardwalk to drive down there.

Nice house
House was good, the sleeping conditions are a little odd, be sure to pay close attention to the details. The ottoman sleeping is just for little kids. There is only two rooms with beds, the bonus room has a couch and ottoman with frosted glass French doors, so not quiet or private, but we didn't care, we put the single male adult in there and it was great. The yard was nice and big. The front yard is nice too, but there is the sewer sub station right in front of the house and if the wind is right, you get a very strong sewer smell outside, but NOT inside, which is nice. The supplies inside the home are awesome, laundry detergent, softener, dish soap and dishwasher soap. Couches are comfortable and spacious. Beds were comfortable, bedding was nice too. Bunk beds make alot of squeaky sounds but you can tell where they have been reinforced with JB Weld. The location of the home was perfect for my plans. The host was awesome!! I had a couple of issues, she addressed them immediately. I just needed more blankets, she told where to find them, i didn't have hot water, she explained a construction issue and the hot water was back on when i needed it most. The host was extremely helpful.

Great location! Walkable to Kemah boardwalk and Kemah nightlife. Angela was fantastic!
We traveled with our adult children. We had plenty of room. There was 1 queen in the primary, double bunk beds and a trundle twin in one bedroom and there was another room with a comfortable couch. It was great to walk to the fun that Kemah has to offer. There are 4-5 fun bars to walk to plus the boardwalk is great for kids and families. Easy drive or uber to NASA, Rowdys for line dancing and two stepping and Galveston was a short drive to get to the beach. I was happy to have some of the comforts that I haven't seen at some rentals, salt and pepper, laundry detergent, foil, canola oil and some spices. All the things that you don't want to buy a big container of for a short stay. Check what is available before you go grocery shopping. We enjoyed the comfortable lawn furniture in the back yard. Angela went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Would definitely stay here again especially when our grandchildren reach school age.

Amazing hidden gem
Amazing little hidden gem. Walking distance to boardwalk but if you have littles there is no sidewalk to the boardwalk. 10-15 minutes from NASA. Plenty of local amenities near by. The house exterior is 60's ranch style but the inside has been beautifully updated. The driveway is tucked back on a small curved road off the main road. If you have a vehicle bigger than an f 250 it will be tight but can be done.

Cute stay with modern finishes!
My group had a great time staying at Angela’s VRBO. The home has a large, open concept layout that is perfect for small to medium sized gatherings, modern kitchen and bathrooms, and a beautiful backyard— all of which are even more impressive in person than the online pictures show! Given prior permission from the host, I was able to hold my baby shower for ~20 guests here comfortably and almost everyone share how lovely they found the home.

No a/c
We arrived not knowing that the a/c has been out all week but we were told on arrival that someone was supposed to come and never did and that went on for the whole duration of our stay. We only got compensated for one night even though both nights we were without air conditioning. The place also had gnats everywhere. We were also informed that we could not use the garage even though there was a storm coming in because it is being used for storage.
