Beautiful spot on the Bay

We had a great trip to this bay front house. Two levels of outdoor space had nice breezes and shade. Extra large fenced in yard was well kept and perfect for our dog. Comfortable, well stocked house - lower level suite was great for the kids to hang out. We had fun fishing, paddle boarding and kayaking. Owner was super easy to work with; we would definitely rent this home again.

relaxing stay, worries melt away

Walking out onto the deck or dock just melts the stress away. The check in process was quick and easy. Tim helped made sure that we were able to get in and check out easily with detailed info and pictures. The upstairs kitchen is well stocked beautifully put together. The primary suite was large with a spacious bathroom. We enjoyed the fishing. Didn't have any keepers, but the fishing lights really helped to see the activity below. Lots of different areas to sit and enjoy the breeze and birds. The grill and firepit was a plus.

Great Stay! Great Fishing!

This place was great, and the host was awesome! The fishing was amazing! Unfortunately, the downstairs was not cleaned very well and had several bugs and a few roaches. Once we cleaned it up ourselves no issues. Overall great stay and we would rent it again.

Nice bay house

Great location on the bay and had great time there with family for 4 days. Fishing was so so. Caught some, mostly non keepers and the crabs take your bait. Typical for Galveston Bay. Unfortunately the mosquitoes were horrible by the thousands swarming everywhere which is no fault of owner. Just made it a bit miserable at times to to be outside and fish or shower and of course they find their way inside. Bring lots and lots of yard guard and OFF. Overall nice place and stay.

Bay Fishing with Framily

We had an amazing time at this property. The owner connected with us frequency before, during, and after to ensure everything was great. The outdoor area was perfect and the inside was super clean and comfy for our two families, 4 adults and 5 kids. The older boys really enjoyed staying downstairs and having their own space. Looking forward to coming back!

Something for Everyone at this Property!

Although the unusual cold weather arrived just as we did and even though two of our party were, unfortunately, unable to join us due to the weather, the nine of us who stayed in the house each found our little piece of bay bliss. As noted by other guests, the views are to die for and they go on an on. It was too chilly for us to enjoy the kayaks or fish, but we were able to utilize the grill, the fire pit and the many decks. Inside, on both levels, it is very comfortable. Two of the younger persons in our group quickly lay claim to the downstairs - perfect for teens or younger adults who want to stay up all night. Or older folks who still like staying up all night!! The primary suite, as well as the other two guest rooms upstairs, was pretty and roomy, all bathrooms well appointed, with plenty of linens. Can't say enough about sectional sofa with its comfy throw pillows, the large TV, the even larger dining table and mammoth bar. (We needed a mammoth bar!) All enjoyed throughout visit. Kitchen well stocked for cooking almost anything you can think of. Definitely recommend renting a golf cart, as you will want to make the three minute trek to the beach. Happily, we encountered no issues that required we contact host, Tim, during our stay. However, prior to check-in, he was very responsive. I would definitely book this house again and I can fully recommend it to anyone wanting the quiet end of the island. And, if you want less noise, great shopping, and need to be fully fed and watered, you will only be minutes from all of that! Book it!

This is one of the best vacations I've ever had! Tim was an exceptional host - accommodating multiple special requests and available our entire stay. I almost want to leave a terrible review so that this house is always available! Every detail, want and need is done to perfection. My mom, who has mobility issues, was so happy here, along with my aunt and sister. "Comfortable" doesn't even begin to describe how luxurious this house is. The showers especially!

Very nice water vacation

The house is large, well maintained, and super clean for a water rental. It's well equipped not only for the living necessities but also for entertainment. Very nice first floor living area includes games, table and chairs, even a popcorn machine as well as a frig, coffee machine, large TV, kitchen table for card games, bedroom and most convenient an easy access bathroom while fishing on the deck, even an outside shower for those playing in the water. Includes 2 kayaks and water board. A fenced yard is also great just from a feeling of security point of view. The upstairs is large, roomy and comfortable. Very clean. We loved it.

Great for Family Vacation!

We all (4 adults) thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. The home is so clean, and you can tell that Tim and his family take pride in their property. The beds are super comfy, the bedding is luxurious, and the bath towels are so fluffy. The kitchen is well equipped with whatever you need. We cooked every meal at the home except for one. We always enjoy going to West End Marina in Sea Isle for dinner at least one night. The balcony over the boat house offers great seating to enjoy views of the sunset. In fact, we sat out there every evening. Tim is a fantastic host, and quickly responds to any questions you may have. Overall, I would highly recommend this vacation rental. We had such a relaxing weekend. Thank you again, Tim. We look forward to renting your home again next year!

We had 4 couples staying here for the weekend and the house was perfect for us to hang out together, play games around the big kitchen table, and spend time sitting around the comfortable deck chairs in the evening. We caught some keeper specks as right off the dock! Overall great experience.
