Stunning views, and OH the crashing waves …So therapeutic! Right on the beach with great fishing & crabbing - literally just steps away! We brought & set up our chairs, horseshoes & cornhole on the bottom level - there is plenty of room! Do bring your own beach chairs if you want to hang out and grill & play on the bottom level. Our stay was 10/10 awesome, from start to finish. Katie was so helpful & accessible. Home was VERY clean, cozy, and had the most comfortable beds & linens ! We are a tall family - all beds were awesome and the bunks accommodated our sons who are both over 6ft comfortably! Plenty of parking as well. All the essentials were on hand … towels - don’t bring any - several bath & beach towels on hand as well as full-size Washer/Dryer, Charcoal grill, cookware, & coffee maker ! Also, plenty of beach toys and lots of boogie boards- literally a stack of them! Everything we needed & more. We look forward to visiting again. Thanks again, Katie, for sharing your beautiful home!

This was our 3rd stay here, and it was great as always! Beds are comfortable, house has everything you need to cook, enjoy the beach, and spend time with family. You can’t beat the location and ease of just walking right upstairs if you are enjoying beach time. We can’t wait to return!

It was so great staying right on the beach. Especially for my parents who do not get around easily, they got to enjoy the beach from the comforts of home. House was very comfortable and very well stocked. The owner was very helpful and responsive to our questions. We would definitely stay here again.

This was our family’s first ever Vrbo and it was a great experience! This property was perfect and beautiful in an amazing location! We have a 4 sons and this was a great spot. Swimming and crabing for the littles/mom and fishing for the older boys/dad! I highly recommend! The house was a good size with plenty of room for everyone. I don’t have another rental to compare it to but it’s was great and I’d definitely rent it again!

This house was amazing and had everything you could want in a vacation home. The location was perfect and right on the beach. The two younger kids loved being able to walk right onto the beach. We were able to set all of our umbrellas and ice chests out before the massive July 4th crowds showed up. The decks were perfect to listen to the ocean and watch the sunsets. Got to see a couple of big storms roll in as well. This spot is perfect for fishing, but unfortunately they weren’t biting for anyone. I’ve seen videos of people catching massive Reds and Specs here. The inside of the house was very spacious. The beds were some of the best we have ever slept in. The AC was always cold and everything worked great. We went on July 4th weekend which brought record crowds. It got so bad that a few of the beaches on Galveston Island were closed. The location of the house at the end of the block made it a prime location for people to enter and exit the beach from under the house. When we arrived we literally had 20 people sitting on the downstairs deck and blocking the drive way. It was a constant flow of people to and from the beach. Luckily this only lasted for 3 days of our trip. Reading the reviews this was not a normal occurrence. Can’t wait to book again during the off-season with less people.

This property is true to pictures and descriptions. We had issues with the lights outside by the pool, but the hosts were prompt in responding and had someone out the next day to look (and fix) them. The 2nd floor does get warm but that was explained to us and it was recommended that we try to not open the outside doors a lot to keep the temp down. Hard to do with kids though. The only other issue we had was that we did see 2 roaches. The pool was definitely an oasis and the best part of our stay. We used the pool everyday! The check out process was super easy and convenient. Overall it was a great stay and I would stay again.
