Cozy, Clean, and Convenient

We rented this place for a small get together for my husband's 50th birthday. Great location, quiet area, great neighbors, unique historic home. This place was perfect for the occasion and would definitely rent again.

LOVED this house

This home is wonderful. It’s even better than the photos. We love the architecture, the decor and pretty much everything about it. Everything in the house was easy to use and worked and it had everything we needed. The location is awesome... a about a 3-5 drive minute from the beach and Pleasure Pier. We hope to stay in this same house when we go back to Galveston.

Perfect Galveston Getaway

What a wonderfully restored, thoughtfully stocked home. Every single person in our family absolutely loved this house. The AC was cold on both floors, the kitchen was outfitted beautifully, and the owners even provided hand soap, toilet paper, and paper towels. Every part of this house was comfortable and beautiful.

Aggie graduation stay

We came for my son’s graduation weekend from TAMUG. It was a perfect central location from the school and restaurants/shopping. The house is decorated well and even had Christmas decorations. We couldn’t have been more pleased.

Elaina’s annual visit!

Beautiful home! Very clean and spacious for our large family. The accommodations were just as the selected home described. Everyone enjoyed their own beds. The location is close to local restaurants and the beach. We will for sure be coming back to stay again in the future. Thank you to the amazing host for keeping in touch!

Good times in Galveston!

We had a fabulous time visiting Moody Garden and Pleasure Pier and the host was kind enough to share suggestions for dining and shopping that was spot on - local businesses with lots of history and charming decor. The house was fabulous! A great blend of old architecture with beautiful updates and beach vibe decorations. All beds were very comfortable and the A/C kept the entire house cool and comfortable. We chose to eat out but the kitchen would be perfect to prepare and serve large meals for a big party.

Loved it

We loved it. We would stay here again. I felt like I was staying in someone's home instead of a rental. It was very comfortable. The weekend we were there was very windy and overcast so we didn't spend as much time at the beach as we expected but Galveston has plenty of other things to do. All the furniture was comfortable, including the beds. I did see comments about the rooms upstairs being open to each other so I was a little concerned about that but it worked out fine. Each room had a door into the hallway that latched (not locked) and each interior door that connects the rooms doesn't latch but has a door stop to hold the door closed. The description states that two cars will fit in the driveway and being this is Texas and lots of people drive larger vehicles I want to note that my husband's 4door, long bed truck fit snuggly in the driveway with barely enough room to close the gate. Two normal sized cars will fit fine with the gate open. Just something to keep in mind if your party has multiple vehicles especially larger ones. We rented a golf cart and parked that in the driveway with the gate closed and two trucks on the street. Street parking didn't seem to be an issue, we comfortably parked two trucks in front of the house each day and there was room further down the street if we had needed it. We stayed with our adult children and all of them said they would stay there again.

From the moment we booked this location it was the smoothest process I've ever experienced. The Host communicated everything very clearly and pleasantly and it was an enjoyable experience overall. Everything was clean and very nice and it was really wonderful that we were staying in such a well maintained historic home. We didn't get to enjoy the nice back patio or enclosed veranda because we were so busy but it was certainly lovely to look at and we would like to do that sometime in the future. It was a great experience and if we have occasion to go back which we shall we would happily stay there again. I can't compliment the host and the home enough.
