Cute house
There were a free things that needed to pork but overall, we loved it! My pups enjoyed the fenced in yard. We loved having two bedrooms and a washer and dryer. It really came in handy to keep towels clean from the beach!

Great little house
Was as advertised, great place to stay for anyone but especially if you have a dog, the back yard much larger then I was expecting, only a couple blocks off of 61st street so easy in and out, they provide much more than we used, in the garage they have chairs for beach, bikes, ice chest and much more, coffee provided and all earning and cooking utensils, I recommend and would stay again

Good family staycation
Since I couldn’t get my money back after hurricane Beryl came through, we figured we might as well go and stay at this house we booked! We had a good time. The home was nice, perfect size for us. Me, husband, 4 yr old and 10 month old. The mosquitoes were horrendous so we didn’t utilize the outside area at all! The backyard patio cover was falling apart anyways, I’m guessing after the storm ….?? The actual house itself was nice, bedding comfy and clean, NO dishwasher! But the laundry appliances were nice and they supplied detergent. Thermostat was a problem! I keep mine at home at 71 and every time I would turn it down, I would look and it would be back up! It was a “smart thermometer” so I’m guessing someone else could control the temp. I wanted to be comfortable… I felt like I was fighting the thermostat lol. Honestly the home was nice and it met our needs overall.

Nice place
We enjoyed our stay. Just a couple of things to improve. The couch was not very comfortable. I would suggest a newer more comfy one to enjoy TV watching. Also, the thermostat was very confusing and difficult to operate. Otherwise it was great. Bedrooms were roomy and the bed was super comfortable. Backyard space was quiet and quite large. Decor was homey and inviting. Location made it easy to enjoy Galveston Home Tour.

Kuk sool won trip
Overall the property was great. My only issue i had, was while i was away to our Kuk Sool Won Tournament, someone had came into the property and mowed the grass on a Saturday. I feel this should have been done before our arrival. And i dont like anyone just coming and going while im onsite or away.

Our Family Beach Trip
Very nice overall. The accommodations were nice and comfortable. We did see a number of roaches in the house. But the house appeared very clean and tidy. I felt it was very thoughtfully put together for a rental. We would have appreciated a few more bath towels and wash cloths for staying four nights and three full days. But we truly enjoyed the stay and would certainly consider it again. Thank you!

Great spot, super close to Moody Gardens
This was a very nice property. Very nice, updated interior and a nice big backyard. For proximity to Moody Gardens (especially if you're competing in Ironman), it's tough to beat. We had to call the owner to figure out the thermostat, which is connected to a Google device, but otherwise great. I think a grill was advertised, but there wasn't one in the backyard. I'd stay here again and would recommend it to others.
