Spacious Home Near Beach!
This family friendly home has been a long time guest favorite! Centrally located, across from the 61st St Fishing Pier, it's less than ten minutes from Pleasure Pier, Moody Gardens, Rainforest Cafe, & more! Best of all, it's only 2 minutes from the beach! Guests frequently complement the functionality of this space for large groups, the proximity to local shopping, dining, etc, and the privacy of being at the end of a quiet, tucked away, "dead-end" street!
Perfect for groups with accessibility concerns, with three of the five bedrooms, and two of the three bathrooms conveniently located on the first floor!

My husband and I came for a spontaneous one night stay and we found this GEM! This place is huge! Plenty of space for a family of 6-8 and a quick walk to the beach and many other activities. Five stars for sure!
Great location about 2 blocks walking from the Seawall. This house is right behind the convention center, near a Kroger and many restaurants. The house is spacious and extremely clean with good Internet and all the amenities needed for a weekend trip. Thank you Lauren and we will definitely consider your place for out next trip. My granddaughter loved the toys and books.
We struggled to find a property for a group size of 21, but this house was fantastic! We brought a couple air mattresses and ended up not even using one of the pull-out couch beds. The host was amazingly communicative and accommodating. Kitchen was very well stocked, fridge was large enough for 21 people over 4 nights, and no-cleaning-required check-out was fantastic. The location of the house was close enough to walk to a nice area of the beach, and good driving time for downtown Galveston. There were extra sheets and towels, and some small toiletries provided. Bathrooms worked great and the small backyard allowed some space to hang out outside.
This was reserved for the bridal party of my wedding. The bridal party loved staying here. They especially enjoyed the short walk to the beach. It was perfect for our needs.
Lauren went way beyond our expectations welcoming us into her home. Her hospitality was amazing. The home was beautiful and very comfortable for our large group and pleanty of space for the littles to play indoor or outside. She had just about everything in the home that you can think of. She also layed out extra things to use in case we needed soap or make-up wipes. It is conveniently located by stores and restaurants. I definitely recommend her home for anyone looking to book a place in Galveston. You will be pleased just like us! We will definitely be coming back next year!
