First Time in Galveston
We planned an impromptu trip to Galveston and saw this house on VRBO. It is a gorgeous cute home. The location block and a half from ocean as well as amenities, backyard, front porch,beds eveything was great. The owners were wonderful hosts and we couldn't have found a better place. Thank you for making it an unforgettable trip.

Beach House Getaway
Lovely location and plenty of commodities to help us enjoy our stay. The wagon full of beach toys was a great bonus, and we spent a good amount of time in the evenings hanging out in the back garden. Would love to visit again someday.

The perfect beach getaway!
I was here racing Ironman Texas 70.3 and this property/location couldn't have been more perfect! Everything was organized, labeled, fully stocked and clean! Ron and Carol were quick to respond to any questions we had and so sweet! I wish I could have stayed longer but this is definitely a place I would return to for my next Galveston trip! Loved it!!!

Beautiful Beach Escape
This has been one of the best stays we've had. The house is beautiful and very well maintained. Every little detail has been considered. The amenities are fantastic. It's close to the beach, the Galveston pier, a community center, and a small convenient store. We will DEFINITELY stay here again when we're back in Galveston!

Our stay was very pleasant, furniture comfy and decor is fun! Managers have generously supplied anything we needed. Fenced backyard is private and nicely furnished. The outdoor shower was great for our dog that loves swimming.

Galveston winter escape
The property is just as represented, well furnished and organized with everything you could possibly need. The location is great. My husband and I stayed two weeks with our two standard poodles. Welcome snacks and beverages. So kind. The fenced in yard with nice grass and pretty patio was such a plus. As an asthmatic, the clean house, no rugs, and no added scents or heavily scented products was wonderful. The communication with the hosts was great and their recommendations on area events, restaurants, etc. so helpful. This is a great place to stay. Look no further. Thank you! Jennifer

So Many Extras to Enjoy!
We loved all the extras the owners provided for us - coffee, snacks, games, toys, a high chair, and children's dishes, to name a few. We also appreciated that the house was within easy walking distance from the beach and restaurants. We had a great Galveston stay!

Well-Appointed Galveston Home
The owners put a lot of effort into making their rental property inviting and very accomodating. Every item from bathing supplies to wine accessories were not only easily accessible. That were organized and labelled as well. The back yard provided a nice additional respite and was very dog friendly. Thank you also for being Texas friendly.
