We will definitely stay here again! The house is comfortable. Great location. Easy walk to the beach. The home had everything we needed. The kids loved the third floor crows nest! We enjoyed watching the storms move in from up there!

This was our first time renting on the east end and the house is a perfect location. Just a very short walk to the beach and so close to many restaurants ands activities. The beach was nice and quiet and the golf cart was a nice bonus!! The house was very clean and well equipped. Our kids really enjoyed the hot tub and the massage chair. We would definitely love to come back and stay here again!

Steven is a great host and the he house was exactly as expected from the pictures. Clean. Quiet. Away from all the usual beach crowds but, close enough to everything that mattered on the island. Wish I could have stayed longer but, will definitely book with Steven the next time around.

Great location
We booked this last minute and it was the perfect location. Right on the beach which was never busy, yet close to the sea wall. The owner was great about communication! Would for sure recommend

Fantastic location!
We had a wonderful stay January and February 2022. The location of this home is fantastic - walkable to the Strand and the Seawall. The house is well set up with everything we needed. The hot tub on the back patio was appreciated, especially on the cooler evenings. The beach is so close and sunrises were epic.
Dustin is an amazing host. He responded right away to any requests and made sure that we had all the information we needed.
We highly recommend this lovely home as a beach destination in Galveston!

Perfect spot for family
Get the benefit of a beach house on the west island with the convenience of proximity to the city and attractions there. Gate out of back yard to public beach access is a key benefit to this house. We had a great stay. Good layout for kids too with two masters and two kids rooms.

Great House on the Beach
We truly enjoyed our stay for the Thanksgiving holiday. The home is a great layout and had everything we needed for our Thanksgiving meal. We loved the downstairs area and large yard, and what a bonus to be able to walk right out to the beach! The amenities were great - we especially enjoyed having all the tv's and channels available for college football and the seating areas on the porches to enjoy the beach breeze. Dustin had great communication and answered promptly when we had any questions. We definitely plan to book again!

Perfect place!
We rented this property during a family wedding and it I was just perfect. We enjoyed the access to the beach, and plentiful parking for a small gathering of more family. We had plenty of space and hot water for everyone to get ready for big events. Relaxing on the decks, in the hot tub, and in the massage chair was an added and much appreciated bonus. The instructions were detailed and owner responded quickly to a question. The location was perfect- easy access to town without Seawall traffic but a quieter area.
5.0
Great location and house
We had never stayed on the East side of the island but this house definitely put this area on our radar for the future. House was clean, had several beach accessories in the garage for the kids and a great yard/set up for the dogs. The house location to the beach and food/attractions was excellent!

Great place! We will be back!!
House was beautiful and a great location! There was plenty of room for my family to enjoy a long needed vacation. We enjoyed our stay so much!!! We have never stayed on the east side of the island and now it’s my favorite side. We enjoyed being by the beach and close to the Strand to go walk around and enjoy some shopping. We highly recommend.

Great Family Vacation Home
Stayed here in July for a family vacation with 6 adults and 4 kids. We've stayed in Galveston multiple times, but this was by far our favorite location. The house had great beach access but was also close to all the downtown restaurants and Pleasure Pier. The house was clean and roomy. Mosquitos were pretty bad at this time of year, but otherwise we had no complaints!

Galveston Family Reunion
The house location is great. Not too far to the beach (easy 5 min walk out the front or back door). The location of the house is excellent, off the beaten path but still close to town. From the front porch you can see Seawall Blvd and the Pleasure Pier, but hardly any trafffic noise when sitting outdoors . For our 4 couples, the house was great, plenty of room and amenities.

Wonderful getaway!
This is an absolutely beautiful home! Our group was definitely a mixture…we had my 84-year-old father, (The stairs are steep but there’s a bedroom on the first floor which is perfect if you have someone with a hard time climbing stairs), One high school senior and three college students and my husband and myself. We absolutely loved the location it’s very private but it was a short walking distance for the kids when they wanted to walk down to the more busy beach. The beach at the location was so clean and convenient and there were only approximately about five more families even on the busiest day. The house was so beautiful and smelled so clean! We took two cars so people could kind of go do their own thing there was tons to do for the week between restaurants, the pier or going down to the Strand. We mainly spent a lot of time at the beach . Dustin left wonderful directions for us on the house and responded very quickly with any communication that we needed. The loft with the massage chair it’s a definite fun plus. Everything that you need is at the location for a definite must would be to bring mosquito spray! We would highly recommend this location and we hope to go again someday, there were seven of us and it was very comfortable for everyone!

Great beach vacation
Our family and another got to visit this property in Galveston for a whole week. The beach access was great as was the property. Plenty of beds for the whole crew and the kids loved playing in the backyard too.

As Beautiful as it Seems!
The house was beautiful. You could sit on the back patio and just watch the waves. I was worried about it being on a public beach, but it’s a beach hidden away so it was never got crowded like other beaches and Galveston! It had all the basic amenities that you need and the property manager was easy to reach. We had 2 babies with us, so it was great that the house was so close to the beach. We could come in and out easily! We also rented a golf cart which made it even easier!
2.5
The home is beautiful and provided the perfect beach vacation for our family. Dustin is the best host responding quickly to any questions and making sure your stay goes smoothly. Thank you Dustin! We could not have asked for a better experience :)

We enjoyed our family extended weekend in this four bedroom property. What a great location to walk to the beach and minutes from downtown/east end Galveston. We especially loved the split level house where one family member could work online in the upstairs loft with a view of the ocean! Dustin was very helpful making sure our Wi-Fi worked properly and always answered our questions within just a few hours. Thank you!!
2.0
We had a great family time. Excellent location. Beautiful views of the beach from the deck. The Hot Tub was a plus!
The house needs just minor changes, some furniture is a little bit outdated. Dinnerware and serverware is limited and lower quality than expected. Regardless, I highly recommend the house!!!!!

We stayed with family and had a great time. The beach is a quick walk away. Dustin was very responsive and helpful. Hot tub was nice. Highly recommend bringing off as the mosquitos were awful outside just about all hours of the day/night.

We had a marvelous time at Dustin's beach home! We rented a golf cart to go up and back to the beach.
The home was quite charming and peaceful!
Thanks again, Dustin!!!
