The property is one of the cleanest rentals we have ever stayed at. The kitchen was fully stocked, has a Keurig, waffle maker, and a slow cooker. Plenty of plates, cups, silverware. The pups enjoyed the backyard, and we enjoyed sitting out there even in the afternoons. Beach access isn't far. Cons: It IS a bit of a drive if you have stuff going on in Galveston, but that had nothing to do with the actual house. It made going to the beach nice as the crowds were significantly less. While most things were well stocked, it was a little odd to us to only have one towel / washrag per person in the house. Be sure you take extras unless you plan to be consistently doing laundry. You will also need your beach towels. None of these items were huge issues, it's just nice to know to be prepared.
