The fully stocked kitchen and ample seating, including bar stools and a dining table, cater to all your culinary needs.

The first bedroom off the living area is a cozy retreat with a king-size bed. Perfect for families, the second bedroom boasts two queen-size beds, while the master bedroom indulges in a luxurious king-size bed.

Down the hall, you'll find another comfy retreat with two more queen-size beds. And after a day of beach adventures, everyone can freshen up in the convenient full bathroom on this floor.

As the day fades to twilight, step outside and embrace the cool sea breeze. Unwind by the firepit, glass of wine in hand, as the Texas sunset paints the sky in warm hues. Let laughter and stories fill the air, knowing these are memories you’ll treasure for years to come.

BIG Disappointment

The upstairs bathroom is not functioning! I wanted 3 bathrooms and specifically searched rentals with this in mind. There are plastic bags on the faucets and sharpie writing on the tile that says ‘Out of order. Do not use due to foundation problems.' The foundation under the house is so cracked that you can’t park in 2 spaces under the deck and is a tripping hazard. They have orange cones out saying do not park. The flooring was cracked in several places. The kitchen was poorly stocked, and the oven takes a long time to heat up.
Upstairs shower
Sharpie on drain
Upstairs bathtub
Standing water the entire time not due to water hose which has holes in it

Short Weekend Get Away!

Charming beach cabin that exceeded all expectations. The location was absolutely ideal—just a short walk to the beach and conveniently close to grocery stores and restaurants, making everything easily accessible. The cabin itself was spotless, cozy, and incredibly comfortable, providing the perfect retreat after a day of exploring or relaxing by the water. I would highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a peaceful and well-appointed getaway.

This was a great house to stay in. The upstairs room was wonderful for our group of teens. The owners communicated well and answered messages quickly.
