About this property
The Sea Shack--Perfect For Mardi Gras, Rodeo, Blocks Away From Boat Ramp And Bay
Welcome to the "Sea Shack"! This beautifully decorated, one-of-a-kind bungalow is perfect for anyone looking to relax, visit Houston and/or Galveston, fish, go to Mardi Gras and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, and more. Enjoy your stay with high end amenities including a propane grill, firepit, deck, two flatscreen TVs, and WiFi.
The Sea Shack is ideally located with easy access to Galveston (a short 20 minute drive gets you to the island), Kemah (where you can find live music, drinks, and merriment most every night), and downtown Houston. San Leon itself is also a gem--visit local eateries such as Gilhooleys (the best oyster bar in the area!) and Pier 6 Seafood. After you finish your busy day having fun, you'll enjoy the Sea Shack's serene and quiet surroundings. Wake up to the sunrise lighting the pasture with horses grazing in the distance outside your bedroom window. Sit on the deck and sip a cup of coffee as you warm up next to the firepit.
Enjoy cooking at home instead of going out? Granite countertops and high end range await your use.

We stayed in this cute little casita almost a month and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It felt very homey & comfortable.Our host was very responsive to any questions we had during our stay.Loved the location in the country but not far from conveniences. Also close to some really great restaurants.Overall great stay!!
Perfect for weekend couple getaway. Quiet and peaceful! We were ready to come back to the city life, lol. Thank you Stacy for having us. Hope to book again soon.
We really enjoyed our time here. It was nice and cozy and perfect for the two of us. I really loved all the little things that made it feel like a home . . . coffee service, snack bowl, beverages in the fridge. Would definitely stay here again.
Super cozy and quiet. Everything worked as it should. Great A/C considering summer heat. Would’ve liked a lil more signage (reflectors?), towards prop as iphone maps shows neighbors driveway a bit hard at night. Nice pier nearby and small town, overall GREAT !
My stay was unique in that it was not for pleasure but rather for school. I stayed 4 months and was extremely impressed. This is a very comfortable little house and would be perfect for a couple's getaway. I found plenty to do in the area during my off time. Lots of fishing and great restaurants including the very popular Gilhooleys. It's very nice and quiet and I would probably say my favorite part is the porch with the fire pit. I would highly recommend this little get-away.
For a discreet getaway, this was an ideal location. A little off the beaten path but not lacking amenities or views. The property was nicely maintained and the host was phenomenal. I thoroughly enjoyed the coziness of the space and seclusion of the location. I even got in some unexpected bird watching and got in some equine talk with my host (horses on the adjacent property). Cleanliness wasn't an issue, grocery stores are near enough, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby. I have no notes.
Stacy was friendly and very helpful, she would respond almost immediately to text messages. Neighborhood was safe and very friendly. Location was ideal. Nasa Space Center, Kemah Boardwalk, and Galveston, nicknamed the Island, were all within easy driving distances. Great restaurants within miles, especially Tapwater, known for fresh seafood. Live jazz music at Katie's Bar at Bayclif, three miles away, plus Barge 295 in Seabrook, both had top-notch musicians playing for tips. We loved the area and discovered plenty of wonderful places and people. We were invited to a neighbor crayfish boil.
The cozy Seashack was well thought out, with a full kitchen complete with a number of fun gadgets, including a tiny stovetop espresso machine which we loved, great cupboard and closet spaces, and a neat outside covered porch ideal for drinking morning coffee, and horse, bird, or rabbit watching.
We are planning to come back next year, hoping to spend several weeks there.
The host was so quick to respond, easy check in and she left us the nicest card for our anniversary. Close to everything we had planned to see and do. Will stay here again next trip
To San Leon/Kemah.
We had the best time at the Seaside Shack for our family getaway. The space is perfect, so nice and clean. The location is great and we had an amazing time!
We had a really nice time at the home. It was close to Space Center Houston, Kemah and the Boardwalk. The house had a good atmosphere, and we had a blast.
The "Sea Shack" was the perfect getaway! The location was the perfect distance to everything we wanted to do, including Galveston Island and parts of Seabrook and Kemah! Would recommend if you're looking for a quiet getaway within driving distance to the beach!
My family and I enjoyed our stay at the Seashack! Super clean and comfy, just what we needed during our 2 day trip. Stacy was super communicative throughout our stay. Great host! My husband and I have agreed that the next time we visit Kemah, we will look to stay here again! 5 stars!
It was so nice after being in the hustle and bustle of Galveston, to come back to this relaxing place. The neighborhood was so quiet. But you could go 4 blocks and be at the water,We would definetely stay again.
