Great little house

Was as advertised, great place to stay for anyone but especially if you have a dog, the back yard much larger then I was expecting, only a couple blocks off of 61st street so easy in and out, they provide much more than we used, in the garage they have chairs for beach, bikes, ice chest and much more, coffee provided and all earning and cooking utensils, I recommend and would stay again

Perfect for what we needed!

We went to Galveston for the Lone Star Rally. We needed a nice, clean place close…but not too close to the Strand. We wanted convenience without the noise. This was a very clean, nicely decorated home with all the necessities. The neighborhood was quiet and we were respectful of others as well. Plenty of room for two couples as the one bathroom and half bath gave opportunity for toilet use if the shower was being used. We willl be back!

Great spot, super close to Moody Gardens

This was a very nice property. Very nice, updated interior and a nice big backyard. For proximity to Moody Gardens (especially if you're competing in Ironman), it's tough to beat. We had to call the owner to figure out the thermostat, which is connected to a Google device, but otherwise great. I think a grill was advertised, but there wasn't one in the backyard. I'd stay here again and would recommend it to others.
