Great and clean place to stay!

I stayed at this property over memorial weekend and it was great! It was a quick stay but this property had everything we could possibly need for my family and I. The property has great upgrades and is very clean, will definitely will be added to my favorites for any of my Galveston trips!

We were there for a fishing trip and the home was convenient to many of the popular bank spots and bait shops. There are many locals in the neighborhood who are out and about walking their dogs or just taking in the nice October weather. I asked if I could do a cookout on the grill and the hosts made sure I had a new tank of propane gas. The hosts were very responsive and it made our stay a worry-free endeavor.

This was excellent vacation stay for my family! I was skeptical at first due to not many reviews but the 2 they had was very recent so I said why not, this was perfect for my family of 5 enough beds for everyone and was very clean! We absolutely loved it and was close to everything! The bottom level was great we enjoyed the scenery and kids loved the little outdoor games they had available! The pictures are exactly how the property looked, my only suggestions is getting a bigger couch it wasn’t enough seating for all 5 of us and if someone brings dog to do deep cleaning after; the property was clean as I stated above but I did see some dog hair at the bottom of the living room table. Other than that it was perfect and my family and I will be returning!
