Nice friendly neighborhood, very quiet, perfect for walking the dogs and humans too. The owners are such great people and we can’t thank them enough for providing such a wonderful home to stay in.

Great time

There was plenty room for the 12 of us plus one dog. We felt right at home. The owner called ahead of time to let us know of a couple hiccups before we arrived. Nothing which affected our stay. We cooked several meals at the house, the gas grill was an added bonus. I would definitely stay here again.

Great home for Galveston stay!

Really enjoyed the size of the house. Its location is very accurate. Very close to the beach. Best part is the air conditioner is plenty cool to handle the high humidity in Galveston. Desa was super easy to work with and we had a great stay! We were actually in town for cancer treatment in League City and it was a very easy commute. Of course the seafood is great in Galveston, but do not miss the Gypsy Joynt - It’s very close to the house and has great food!

We were in town for the Lone Star Motorcycle Rally. We LOVED the property! It was clean, cozy, elegant decor, comfortable beds & bedding, immaculate furnishings, adequate seating, fully stocked kitchen, garage to pull our bikes inside, nice neighborhood. The only advice I would suggest is fixing up the back patio with more comfortable seating, some string lighting and a firepit to make the outdoor space inviting and relaxing. Thanks to the owners for timely responses and professional interactions, We will be back every year!!!
