Little piece of paradise
This was a perfect and by far the best property we’ve had the privilege to rent in Galveston Texas. From the moment we arrived we knew we had found our home away from home. Chris the property owner was very friendly and made me and my family feel right at home. So many extra perks with this property. Some being the outdoor patio,fire pit, trampoline for the kids and tons of extras like the canoe or kayak the list goes on and on. The house was perfect just like the pictures show. Plenty of room for everyone to wind down after a long day on the beach or out fishing. And a bonus Chris runs one of the best guide services for catching those fish. So don’t waste your time looking for another one. This is it.

just a few things
the ac over the bed is so loud my sister couldn't sleep well. the fridge didn't work but i he called to tell me that. the trailer is about 5 ft from his walk way to his house. which is little bit closer than i thought. he was a very good host. just the trailer to close, and the loudness of ac.

Perfect for quick getaway!
We enjoyed our stay. It was in a perfect location; near the beach and marina to dine. The camper was nice and clean and complete of essentials that you’ll need. AC was perfect too on a very hot summer time. Though the fridge in the camper was not working but the host made sure and gave us a heads up. He made us had access to a fridge which is just a jump away in the garage which all work out fine. Chris is a great host; kind, accommodating and he made sure you get what you need. He has a boat and canoe and kayak for you to rent so our friend came over for a day to enjoy the place too. We would be coming back in the future to stay in this camper. Highly recommended! 👍🏼

Home Away From Home
Everything from beach towels to board games, camping chairs, outdoor lounging area, grill, outdoor tv, close to marina with restaurants, live music, close and easy to get to beach, 1/2 mile long pier to watch the sunset and fish, even a hammock to relax on and a fire pit, and the camper was lovely! Wish we could have stayed more than one night. If your looking for a unique getaway vs a hotel I vote for choosing this place! The only thing that I would change is I wish we would have known ahead of time and gotten a heads up that the fridge wasn’t working in the camper so we could have brought bags of ice and not brought as much perishable food. But the owner hooked us up with a cooler and helped solve the problem.

Great Stay
Chris was a superhost, property was great. Walkes in and the AC cooled us right off. RV was great. Went crbbing down by the pier, played basketball and all the nieghbors were super friendly. Offered to take us fishing at a great price and will take him up on it next time. Thanks for the Hospitality, definitely will be back if he will have us!!!

Vacation
Enjoyed our two night stay here before we checked in to our vacation canal rental. Chris was a great host and made sure we had a nice time. We went to the pier located just down the street and caught a lot of fish including shark, catfish and a lot of Keeper trout.

Perfect beach getaway!
Highly recommend booking this location. It was the perfect beach getaway! The camper was roomy, clean, great location to the beach and the marina. Chris was a great host, always making sure my best friend and I had everything we needed. He took us out for a boat ride around the bay and the marina, which was a blast and even spotted some dolphins! During all the craziness with covid-19 this place was perfect to be able to enjoy some beach time and not be in the middle of a lot of people. Staying in the camper allowed us more room then a hotel and again away from the crowds. Highly recommend this property and it’s owner!

Quick get away
Rented this place for a quick get away. Location was great! Short drive to the beach. Few blocks from the marina. Marina has a few spots for fishing, 2 different restuarants and a little store and bait shop. RV was clean, neat and stocked with things you might need. It is on Chris' property behind his beach house with still enough privacy and room to just hang out. We did some swimming, fishing, bar b queing, and relaxing. He offers a guided fishing trip for a separate fee. Looking foward to coming back and setting up a time to do this!

Great time!!!
Wife and I spent the whole labor day weekend here. The host, Chris, was very pleasant to visit with and we loved playing fetch with his lab "Shooter". Quiet neighborhood, minutes from the beach, minutes from San Luis Pass. The RV was very clean and everything was provided, towels, fully equipped kitchen, even had shampoo and soap if you forget yours, AC in the sleeping quarters will freeze you out, just the way I like it, lol, bring a change of clothes and you're good to go. There's an area under the main residence which has a common area set up with an outdoor seating area and tv. There's a fire pit and firewood to relax by the fire after a long day at the beach. Chris will take you out for a guided fishing trip as well, for a separate fee. We caught some specks and some sun. :) All and all a great weekend!!!

Cozy & Perfect
We enjoyed our stay. It's the perfect cozy spot to relax at. From the hammock, fire pit, outside tv w/available DVD movie collection. There's a nearby store & marina/bar-grill. There's also beach access about 5 mins away. Chris was a great host to us; he consistently made sure to check on us to ensure our stay was going smoothly. We will definitely return & take a ride on his beautiful Robalo boat.

Great Spot for fishing and relaxing with or without the family.
I rented the RV for the weekend with my wife and child, Chris was great, he helped with info and the area and even rented me his John boat for the morning at a very reasonable price. The property is very clean and has everything you could need for a weekend getaway.

Perfect getaway spot for fishing
Kudos to the hottest with the mostest. This was a great host and a comfy/cozy stay! It's right on the water and the fish were fighting even though the bad weather. Boat ramp and marina was perfect. All and all, it was awesome! Thanks Chris! See ya next time! (Very soon)

Kudos to the hostest with the mostest! Chris was nothing short of awesome! I brought my boat and was able to use his private boat ramp. We got into some really good fish! The R.V. was comfy and cozy. Perfect place to go and rest after an exhausting day on the water. I will definitely be back! Thanks Chris! Tight Line!

Great spot, excellent value!
We really enjoyed our stay and will be back. The camper is relatively new, decorated nicely, well kept and clean. The kitchen had all the basic utensils and pans that you’d need. There were clean sheets and towels there at our disposal. There were three of us (2 adults and 1 child) and there was plenty of space. Chris, the owner, lives on the property. He is extremely accommodating and was available should we need anything. We mentioned in passing that we’d be grilling one night for dinner and making s’mores on the fire pit. He took the time to prep both the grill and the fire pit for us prior to us returning from our day at the beach. Chris also offers fishing outings on his Robalo, as well as fishing poles, and kayak rentals. We’ll take advantage of the fishing next time we come! Thanks again, Chris!
