Caisson Cottage - Cozy Home a Short Walk to the Beach

Relax with the family in this cozy cottage at the center of Surfside Beach, TX. Comb the beach for shells, bird-watch and take in the slow-roll of Island Life as you get to know this quaint little beach town. Your family will have what they need with a fully-equipped kitchen, sectional to veg out on, and two full bathrooms. The open layout of this home makes family time seem natural and easy. This home is elevated like all the homes in Surfside and requires access up a flight of stairs.

Perfect Cottage
This cottage was perfect for our group. My husband & I stayed 7 days & my son, his fiancé & my 5 year old granddaughter came down just for the first weekend. There was a perfect amount of space, everything we needed, close to stores & restaurants and right between the pedestrian beach & the jetty.

Cute beach house close to the beach
My fiancé, son, and daughter stayed at this super cute beach house for two nights. House was exactly as described, which fit our needs exactly - convenient location, and comfy furnishings. Quiet, serene neighborhood that made having my morning coffee on the patio a dream - who wouldn't enjoy starting their day to the sounds of the gulf?! Next time we visit Surfside, we will definitely lookto rent this house again!

A good place to stay with your family
A nice location, walkable distance to the beach. A bit farther than it was shown on the map at the time I was making a reservation, though: bring a wagon with you to put your kids’ stuff, or take a short car ride. Car parking place is in a shade, outdoor shower worked well. The air conditioner stopped cooling on the second day, but this issue was promptly resolved after we notified the host. Charming decorations and cleanness. Kids enjoyed the atmosphere. Thank you

Should have stayed in a hotel
This is not a property I would ever recommend. We showed up to dirty sheets and a pile of wet towels on the bathroom floor. There was food in the sink and dirty knives. Animal hair throughout the house. So we had to do laundry and dishes as soon as we arrived. Why is there a cleaning fee? Also the water is has sulfur in it. I bet that a lot of properties on the island are like this, but we didn’t have bottled water with us when we arrived after a long journey. Visitors should be warned about this. Nothing was provided that is typical. There is no potable water, soap, shampoo or dishwasher soap. I guess guests are expected to bring all of these. This is more like a cheap youth hostel.

Cleanliness
The location is good the water is a little smelly but it’s not that bad after the first day. When we first arrived there was dirt on the floor and several dead roaches on the floor throughout the house. There was clothes left in a dresser in the bedroom. There was no paper towels so we had to buy some. There was no laundry detergent so we had to buy some. There was nothing to scrub dishes with. We couldn’t find the towels so we assumed there wasn’t any and then when we did laundry we discovered all the towels were in the dryer. Most of the dishes were in the dishwasher and not put up. We went to make coffee with the keurig and there was a cup left in the machine. There was only 1 trash bag. It seemed like no one really cleaned the place and all that had been done was whatever the last guest had done so we were a little concerned about the cleanliness of everything and prayed the bed was at least clean. We didn’t see any live roaches until our last night. We were cooking and several appeared on the stove, table, and floor, we almost packed up and left then and there but we didn’t want to waste our money we paid. My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and the place kind ruined it, we didn’t stay at the house very much thankfully though but we would have liked to have stayed and relaxed there.

We had a great time. We had a problem with toilet and with tub being stopped up. We reported it immediately. We got taken care immediately. The only complaint was a water hole that was a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
