Perfect Place
We stayed with our teenager and 9 year old. The place is perfect. The home is so much nicer than the photos even show. Location cant be beat. When its not quite summer, you have the hot tub to jump in and enjoy in between fishing. We will stay here again.
I loved that it was really clean and seemed almost new. The washing machine and refregierator was a newer model compared to all the other places i have been to. Overall, the house was big, clean, and in good shape.

Perfect house on the main canal.
We had a fantastic weekend largely thanks to the amazing house. It is in a prime location for fishing right off the private dock. The house had everything you could need and was very clean and well furnished. I hope to return for another trip soon.

Family time made easy!
Our stay was wonderful, we absolutely loved this house and cannot wait to come back. The house is perfect for everything you need, the kitchen is well stocked along with so many things to do. The kids loved to fish all day and most of the night. When they were not fishing they were in the paddle boat or kayaks. We highly recommend renting this house for your next vacation!

Pretty Perfect Place
Everything about this place was as close to perfect as possible. Wonderful home with many amenities. Great dock and sitting area. Great for boats or kayaks, with easy access to the bay and Galveston Island State Park. Easy fishing right from the dock, though. Lots of sand perch, a sand trout, couple of nice black drums, and piggy perch. This will be our Go-To Galveston area place to stay. Loved it.

Amazing home!
My family and friends had a wonderful stay here! We enjoyed sitting outside on the patio, and the hot tub. We loved the access to the canal and watching the fish in the green light at night. The house was plenty spacious and had all the necessary amenities! Looking forward to coming back for our next beach vacation! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Fantastic weekend
We had a great weekend at your house in Jamaica Beach.
We noticed the great parking situation when we pulled up. Fantastic view of the water, plenty of space to gather and/or relax and watch the boats pass by. We had not stayed on the canal before and really enjoyed swimming and fishing off the dock. The house was very clean with comfortable furniture and mattresses. It was also close enough to go into Galveston for dinner and sightseeing. I would recommend this place as I will be rebooking in the future.
