Welcome to Pickle & Pier, a premier bayside waterfront retreat unlike anything else on your Galveston getaway list. This 5-bed/2.5-bath estate spans four spacious levels and comfortably sleeps up to 22 guests — making it the ultimate destination for large families, multi-generational vacations, milestone celebrations, or epic group getaways with friends. From the private fishing dock and on-property pickleball court to the outdoor kitchen, dedicated poker room, and ground-floor game room loaded with arcade and foosball, this home is purpose-built for the kind of trip everyone talks about for years. Pickle & Pier is the perfect blend of waterfront luxury, group-friendly entertainment, and easy bayside living.

Step inside the main level and you`ll find a bright, open-concept layout where a spacious living room flows seamlessly into a large, fully stocked kitchen and dining area — perfect for big-group breakfasts and family-style dinners. Just off the main living space, a dedicated poker room sets the tone for late-night card games and laid-back competition. Down the hall, a large laundry room and two bedrooms share a full hallway bathroom — the first featuring a queen bed and a full-over-full bunk that easily sleeps six, and the second offering a king bed with deck access and beautiful water views. The third level houses a private king suite with its own en-suite bathroom and direct access to a private deck overlooking the water — the perfect spot for morning coffee or a quiet sunset. The fourth level is a loft-style retreat with two queen beds, more private deck access, and those same stunning bay views. Down on the ground level, the fifth bedroom doubles as a full-on game room — complete with two full-over-queen bunks, foosball, an arcade machine, and a TV with sofa seating — a kid favorite and a true bonus for groups. A convenient half bathroom (accessible from the back deck) is perfect for rinse-offs after a day on the dock or the pickleball court.

What truly sets Pickle & Pier apart is its unmatched combination of premier waterfront features and on-property entertainment. Cast a line from your private fishing dock, settle in for a competitive pickleball match, fire up the outdoor kitchen on the back deck, or take the fun inside to the poker room or game room — your group has options for days, all without ever leaving the property. When you are ready to explore, you`re a short drive from Galveston`s most popular attractions, including the Galveston Seawall, Pleasure Pier, Moody Gardens, and the historic Strand District, plus the island`s best beaches, restaurants, and shops. Whether you`re planning a multi-generational reunion, a milestone celebration, or the ultimate friends` weekend, Pickle & Pier delivers a one-of-a-kind Galveston experience you won`t find anywhere else.
