Best rental we’ve ever stayed in
This was such a beautiful, clean home. Everything was so well laid out and organized. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking full meals. The out door seating was perfect for having our family over who were also staying in the area. The crab boiler was especially a perk! We boiled shrimp one night and crabs the next. The blackstons was perfect for burgers and hotdogs. We definitely want to come back. The walk to beach was easy. JBs shrimp supplier close by, crabbing jetty’s, Rita’s ice cream and the big store were some favorite nearby. The Galveston strand was just a close ferry ride away. Next time we will stay longer!

Great stay
Well appointed vacation cabin. Beds and linens were comfy. The Blackstone grill was great to have so we didnt have to dirty the kitchen too much. Owners were easy to contact and quick to respond. We had a great stay!

All the extras
Its a good location but still probably a 5 min walk to the beach. From the porch you can just see a sliver of the ocean. But let me tell you that this place has everything. Spices to cook with and not just stuff other guests left. A entire spice rack, diner wear from crate & barrel, a

We had an amazing time at your beach house. Everything we needed was there. It was truly home away from home. Can't wait to stay here again in the near future! Loved the very close walk to the beach as well! Thanks again!
