Pelican Pointe Home for 10
Summary:
Located along the peaceful Bolivar Peninsula, Pelican Pointe offers the kind of coastal escape where slow mornings, breezy afternoons, and stunning views set the tone for your stay. The Gilchrist area is known for its quieter beaches, excellent fishing, and proximity to the Audubon bird sanctuaries at High Island—making it a favorite for nature lovers and those seeking a calmer stretch of the Texas Gulf Coast.
The Space:
Inside Pelican Pointe, the living room opens up with plush leather seating, a loveseat, and a smart TV—perfect for movie nights or rainy-day downtime. Board games offer a little friendly competition, and large windows frame beautiful views that remind you you're never far from the water. The adjacent eat-in kitchen features stone countertops, white cabinetry, and all the essentials, plus a Keurig for easy mornings. The dining table for six—with bench seating—invites the crew to gather around for shared meals before heading back outside.
Step out to the patio where a picnic table and grill create an effortless setup for outdoor dining and coastal cookouts. With lake access just steps away, you can launch into nature at your own pace—kayak, fish, or simply soak in the coastal scenery. At Pelican Pointe, the rhythm slows down just enough to let you enjoy the simple joys of waterfront living and time well spent by the bay.

For a quieter slice of the Texas Gulf Coast, Gilchrist offers laid-back beach days, coastal birdwatching, and a slower pace of life along the Bolivar Peninsula. Visitors come for the wide, drivable beaches, fishing and crabbing along the bay, and easy access to nearby High Island and the Audubon bird sanctuaries—especially during migration season. With fewer crowds than larger beach towns and that relaxed peninsula charm, Gilchrist is a peaceful getaway where the sound of waves, salty breezes, and starry coastal nights take center stage.
Just outside, Galveston offers the perfect blend of Texas coastal charm, historic character, and easygoing beach-town fun. Spend your days relaxing on miles of sandy shoreline, strolling the lively Seawall, or exploring the vibrant shops and restaurants in the Strand Historic District. Adventure-seekers can enjoy attractions like Moody Gardens and Schlitterbahn, while history lovers will appreciate the island’s beautifully preserved Victorian architecture and storied landmarks. Whether you're savoring fresh Gulf seafood, catching a sunset over the water, or simply soaking up the laid-back island vibe, Galveston delivers a getaway that feels both refreshing and full of personality.
