The home is lovely. But the backyard/pool area is the star of this vacation home. We spent many hours just relaxing, grilling and playing in pool/outdoor kitchen area. Highly recommend
The home was exactly as pictured. It was clean and comfortable. Just a short walk to the seawall and a short drive to restaurants. Having the pool in the backyard was the icing on the cake. Unfortunately, the weather this weekend was VERY windy and relaxing on the beach really wasn’t an option. The pool and the covered porch were just what we needed. Our 2 dogs had a great time!
This cottage was so well thought out and exudes class in every way. Well appointed, furnished beautifully, and oh so cozy and comfortable.
The pool and backyard are spectacular and the outdoor kitchen is fabulous. So private and clean.
We will be back here often now that we've experienced this place. Maybe the best booking we've had EVER!
Close to virtually every destination we had on our list. Just parked the car in the garage and ubered everywhere!
Absolutely wonderful!!! The location, cleanliness, the pool, the perfect atmosphere and the management co was so friendly and easy to work with. Planning next years stay already
We stayed over the 4th of July holiday. This house is so cute. Super clean, easy walk to the beach, fun outdoor area with pool and our dogs were welcome too. The management team was very responsive during our booking process. If our travels brings us back to Galveston, we will definitely look to stay here again!!
Excellent. The grilling situation was a little ify. Kind of rusty. Kitchen well stocked with loads of storage. Close to beach. Needs more lamps in living room and main bedroom. A hanging light over the dining table would be nice. It was kind of dark, and the ceiling cans are blinding. We loved our time there. We made a great choice!
