Such a beautiful place! Well stocked with everything we needed: pans, kitchen utensils, games for kids and even a basket of beach towels! It was great having 3 fridges and they have an ice machine!. There was plenty of seating both inside and out. Bottom line, It was the perfect place for my daughter's 40th birthday get together.

This home is a must for anybody having a large family staying in the Kemah area. The home was as advertised with plenty to do including swimming, fishing, darts, pool table, poker table and a very large TV. Our family was there for a wedding and it made it very convenient for the 11 of us who stayed at the property. Our sons and daughter-in-law wedding party had their makeup done at the property which was large enough to accommodate all. Overall a five-star plus for this property. The view is to die for.
