Perfect Place

We stayed with our teenager and 9 year old. The place is perfect. The home is so much nicer than the photos even show. Location cant be beat. When its not quite summer, you have the hot tub to jump in and enjoy in between fishing. We will stay here again.

Perfect house on the main canal.

We had a fantastic weekend largely thanks to the amazing house. It is in a prime location for fishing right off the private dock. The house had everything you could need and was very clean and well furnished. I hope to return for another trip soon.

Amazing home!

My family and friends had a wonderful stay here! We enjoyed sitting outside on the patio, and the hot tub. We loved the access to the canal and watching the fish in the green light at night. The house was plenty spacious and had all the necessary amenities! Looking forward to coming back for our next beach vacation! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Family time made easy!

Our stay was wonderful, we absolutely loved this house and cannot wait to come back. The house is perfect for everything you need, the kitchen is well stocked along with so many things to do. The kids loved to fish all day and most of the night. When they were not fishing they were in the paddle boat or kayaks. We highly recommend renting this house for your next vacation!

Fantastic weekend

We had a great weekend at your house in Jamaica Beach. We noticed the great parking situation when we pulled up. Fantastic view of the water, plenty of space to gather and/or relax and watch the boats pass by. We had not stayed on the canal before and really enjoyed swimming and fishing off the dock. The house was very clean with comfortable furniture and mattresses. It was also close enough to go into Galveston for dinner and sightseeing. I would recommend this place as I will be rebooking in the future.

Pretty Perfect Place

Everything about this place was as close to perfect as possible. Wonderful home with many amenities. Great dock and sitting area. Great for boats or kayaks, with easy access to the bay and Galveston Island State Park. Easy fishing right from the dock, though. Lots of sand perch, a sand trout, couple of nice black drums, and piggy perch. This will be our Go-To Galveston area place to stay. Loved it.

We had an absolutely wonderful two-week stay at this canal home and couldn’t have asked for a better Galveston getaway. The house was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up for a relaxing long stay. The outdoor space was a standout—soaking in the hot tub, watching the fish gather under the fish light at night, and enjoying the peaceful canal views made every evening feel special.The kayaks and paddleboard were a huge bonus and made it easy to enjoy the water right from the property. The location was ideal: quiet and relaxing, yet just minutes from the beach and everything we wanted to do. It truly felt like a home away from home.The host was welcoming, responsive, and clearly takes pride in the property. Everything was well maintained and exactly as described. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-equipped, and memorable Galveston stay.
