About this house rental
Historical significance and luxurious amenities await your stay at this spacious 19th-century home - a beautiful, historic Victorian home built in 1895, completely restored to historic standards. This house is the sister home to the Maud Moller House which sits next door. Many original parts of the home are there, with amazing stained glass throughout, as a survivor of the 1900 Storm.
Enjoy the Galvestonsun while on short walks to historical landmarks like Bishop's Palace, Moody Mansion, Ashton Villa, and many more. The Stand, shopping, fine dining, and Pleasure Pier are all easily visited from this home's unique location.
This multi-level retreat features spacious balconies on the first and second levels, creating perfect spots for dining alfresco and sharing fun times with your loved ones. Surprise your friends with delicious homemade meals prepared in the fully appointed kitchen- it's complete with modern stainless steel appliances and a Keurig coffee maker for coffee enthusiasts. The beautiful island seats two and is ideal to keep the chef company. The inviting living/dining area features a six-person dining table, a comfortable sofa, and a smart TV with streaming services.
Decorated in Beach Victorian with a smart TV, the family room steps out to a second-story balcony for enjoying an evening toddy.

The birthday girl is a history buff and wanted to immerse herself in the history of one of her favorite cities. We couldn't have picked a more perfect spot to stay! This historic Victorian house has all the right upgrades plus all the right vintage feels. The baths and kitchen are beautifully upgraded, the beds are comfy, there are so many choices of cozy nooks to sip a cup of tea (or margarita) while visiting or reading. Close to all the shops and restaurants. We loved it!

This house is fantastic! The beds were so comfortable. Enjoyed having two sitting areas. It helped being able to have our own space while two of us were working remotely…(and another got to nap). We had a morning bike ride with the bikes stored in the basement. The basement was also great area to sit back and relax. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need.

Thank you!

We loved everything about the house, the location, furnishings, everything! It was perfect for our weekend on the island.

The home was very well appointed and the location was great. No downside at all - make sure to go to the basement it is great (although we didn't go down until right before leaving - our mistake). The only downside, which the owner has accommodated as well as possible, is the lack of hanging space in old Victorian homes.. so plan accordingly

We would definitely return as the location worked well for us. It was within easy walking distance to the strand, right up the road from the Dirty Iguana. Don't expect great views but a decent neighborhood. Our biggest issue occurred on night one. When we arrived about 5 pm, the fire alarm in the upstairs bedroom went off. I contacted the host through VRBO. They returned contact by the time it stopped on its own. We agreed that as long as it didn't go off again, it could wait until the next morning. It went off again, at 130 in the morning. I sent a message. No response. I eventually called the VRBO help line and they tried to contact the host with no response. At 4 a.m., my husband took the shovel he had dound and knocked it off the wall. (We tried to get to it in other ways but it was way up on the historic walls and we did not have a ladder.) The next day, their handyman shows up and tells us it has to be replaced as it expired in 2020. We get thay things happen but...
1. If you have been informed earlier thay something is going on, take care of it then or be available in the middle of the night.
2. The purpose of using a VRBO is to ensure a good night's sleep. We did not have a good night's sleep.
And 3. If something occurs and you can't take care of it in a reasonable ammount of time offer something to compensate for the problems. (They offered us an extra night at a 15% discount. We did not want to pay for an extra night nor did we have the time.)

Really enjoyed the house. Great location and amenities.

The home was beautifully restored in a way that preserved most of the historic beauty of the house. Great location, well stocked kitchen, and comfortable beds. This was a weekend girls trip and we all raved about how amazing the home was.
4.9
We had a group of about 10 friends staying with us for the weekend and everyone absolutely loved this home, so much so that we extended our stay for one more night. We will definitely book again.
