Amazing location close enough to most attractions in Houston, and just far enough away to be relaxing and quiet. The view in the back yard is perfect and great for bird watching as well. The home was clean and a fantastic way to end along evening. The host is amazing and communicated/responded very quickly. Check in was exceptionally easy as well!!! Great stay if you plan on visiting the Houston area.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house! Clean, comfortable, great views of the bay; so relaxing. You can see the water while cooking in the well provisioned kitchen and from almost every room in the house. The host communicates very well and is truly concerned with ensuring a pleasant stay. We caught fish from the shore while barbecuing on the back porch. It is in a quiet neighborhood, we slept very well and enjoyed many of the local restaurants and sites. All in all a wonderful experience.

Wonderful home and host

Steven went above and beyond answering any questions we had quickly and was more than gracious and hospitable during our stay. Highly recommend his home, which is located on the water with a beautiful view. Our family needed to stay somewhere close to our daughter’s soccer tournament in Baytown. Location is perfect and is short drive to Kemah. Thank you!

This is a very comfortable house with a very responsive owner.

Arriving in the hot tub was not available nor was the dryer. We figure out how to cook butter overall grape.
