About this house rental
Taylor's Perch
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Leave the rat race behind and trade it for gentle ocean breezes when you unwind at this waterfront Galveston home. This retreat offers up to six guests and two well-behaved dog companions (for a small nightly fee) the chance to relax and enjoy water-side adventures.
Perched right on the waters of Galveston's West Beach, you'll be a little over 12 miles from the attractions at Moody Gardens and just under three miles from the beachfront fun at Galveston Island State Park. You'll also have access to a nearby community pool for an additional fee.
Watch the morning sun shimmer on the rolling waters from your balcony before heading out for a day of kayaking of deep sea fishing. The private washer/dryer will keep the laundry at bay while you surf the cable channels or connect to the free WiFi and stream something on your personal device. Warm up with a fire in the fireplace, or head over to the off-site pool and dive into a good book. Let the kids play on the outdoor playground then have a snack under the shade of the covered eating area. At the end of the day, you can whip up a dish in the fully equipped kitchen.
Whether you're checking out the local attractions, throwing the ball for Fido at the park, or exploring the waters with a stand-up paddleboard, this Texas Gulf Coast home surrounds you with possibilities for adventure!
*Please contact Vacasa for our special snowbird rates!
*The pool is one mile away; it can only be accessed with an additional fee ($5 per day/person).
*Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a friendly reminder rather than risking a noise complaint from a neighbor.

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. If you would like to add more dogs, please contact us.

When we arrived, the key was not in the lockbox. Once finally inside, there were ants in the kitchen, a strong odor coming from somewhere, splashes of who knows what on the walls. A broken chair by the dock (the only chair by the dock) and a washing machine not hooked up to water. All of these things were reported to vacasa (the property manager) who was responsive but they are not local and the local staff never reached out to rectify any issues. In going back to read other reviews, it is easy to see a pattern of issues that are not resolved until the next guest. The property manager is not proactively taking care of the property prior to an arrival and puts it on the guest to discover and report it. It's an inhospitable way to run a rental business.
Besides these issues, as noted in other reviews, the kitchen offerings are more of what was left at a garage sale. 3 bowls, a smattering of plates, no wine glasses and just odds and ends of everything else. The paper towels and toilet paper are the thinnest you will find.
There are two decks - the front one faces the wonderful views of the bay and is so old you best watch your footing. In addition, between the two decks there are 5 chairs. 2 on the bay deck, 3 on the canal deck (but yet there is a table for 4 on the canal deck). We found ourselves walking a chair through the house at various times of day.
This could be a great house but it feels like they don't care about your experience.

Pictures are misleading! Property exterior is dated. Chairs are old, bay porch has lifted wood which is a safety hazard.
Interior has several problems such as sugar ants, broken outlets, lights not working, one tv, not 2, etc.
Dirty and property manager rude!
Would not stay here.

Rented this property the week before Easter to avoid the holiday crowds. What a great choice of location and house. Very inviting and cosy, great views, quiet and peaceful. The a/c was not working when we checked in, so only 4 stars. Took 4 hours before it was repaired and it was a warm day. The house could use an outside repaint but the interior was very nice, we loved the decor. We would rent this house again.

Loved looking out over the state park grounds from the front and having a canal option on the back. We were there at a time we could enjoy the morning sunrise and the moon rising from the front porch.

First time staying on a canal and it was great! House had everything we needed with very comfortable beds. We would definitely stay there again.

This house was exactly what we needed for a relaxing few days. The house is located right across the street from the bay side of the state park, which provided endless hours of bird watching and even crabbing from the docks. Conveniently, there are a bunch of restaurants and a friendly coffee shop at the entrance of the neighborhood. We ordered pizza from Way West Grill and Pizzeria a couple of times because their pies are pretty amazing. We were less than 3 minutes to the beach, which was very clean and not crowded at all. The house itself is large enough and comfortable for 2 small families as the bedrooms are on opposite sides. We enjoyed fishing and crabbing in the canal when we weren’t out and about. The neighborhood itself is very quiet and was the perfect mixture of the bay and ocean in one. We will definitely come back for additional stays.

My sister, 5 year old son, and I stayed for a week and we loved it. We had a few storms blow through and it was fun to watch them through the big windows. And, while it was wonderful to hear her teaching him how to play some of the many board and card games on hand at Taylor's Perch while I prepared meals in the lovely kitchen , we did want to be fishing. Eventhough the temperature was high outside the ac kept us nice and cool inside and there was always a place to find the breeze outside on the front or back deck or under the house or on the boat dock. We fished in the canal and across the street in the bay and had lots of fun watching the big fish and little fish check out our lines, but none took our bait... this time.
We will be back.
Just as pictured and even better in person. Don't hesitate, book Taylor's Perch now. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a murphy bed not in the main living room.

We stayed a few days and got to enjoy day at the beach nearby, fishing and crabbing from the canal side and the bay side. Nicely updated home. Exterior could use some maintenance but it is just aesthetics and did not affect our experience. Kitchen could use some dish soap (only had dishwasher pods) because some items don’t fit in the dishwasher. Overall very nice stay for our family of 5.

In the dark
We had a wonderful stay at Taylor’s Perch.
There are couple of items I might request the manager before staying.
1. Since this is a canal home, and you’ll probably be bring a boat, yet the boat launch is not available to the public staying at Taylor’s Perch, unless the owners provide a permit.
2. The main bathroom tub doesn’t drain and the second bathroom toilet doesn’t flush properly.
Hope this helps.

Bring your own coffee filters, paper towels, and no tv in bedroom
House was lovely, very comfortable beds, clean, but as many mentioned before, there are no paper towels in the kitchen and only two hand towels provided for the week, no coffee filters for the coffee machine, and no TV in the king bedroom though pictures show one.

Terrific spot for a family getaway
Great location on the bay side of Galveston. Easy access to the beach. The house was in good shape and had all the items needed to enjoy the stay. Neighborhood was family friendly and quiet in the evening. Perfect place for a family to stay and enjoy the Texas coast!

Little Gem of a House
The home is beautiful. Views outstanding. Beds are really comfortable with top notch linens. The place was immaculately clean as well.
Really enjoyed our stay! Would do it again.
Suggestions are new coffee maker, need pot holders, insufficient dinnerware and silverware, master bath door sticks and front sliding glass door latch/lock needs repair.
Thank you!

Great get away!
Our family of 4 had a great time staying here. House was very clean when we arrived and nicely decorated. Just needs a few maintenance items like a broken bed side lamp and window blinds ( I love that they are inside the glass doors). I would definitely stay here again. We were happy that we could bring our dog, he had a great time too.

Jamaica beach 🏖 stay
We loved our stay the place was nice , had everything we needed it was very clean. I really appreciated the communication we got from Vacasa you were great with information. My only critique is the check out time is too early. 6 hours to clean and sanitize seems like a long time. Other than that it has been great. Would definitely use you again.

This place had a wonderful setup for me. And what a view of the marshy bay! The only glitch was with the tv network but I didn't need it--rather look at the bay.
