This was our 3rd and best visit to Tim’s Bayfront house in Galveston. It has everything you need and the views and fishing are awesome. The new fishing pier is a great addition. Lots of yard/dock space overlooking the bay and you even get nice shade in the afternoon. We will be back for sure.

Great Bay House

This was are second time to stay at this house and we love the house and the location. The new fishing pier was really nice and the boys had lots of success fishing off of it. Our teens really enjoy having a separate area downstairs. Great house and excellent host!

Beautiful spot on the Bay

We had a great trip to this bay front house. Two levels of outdoor space had nice breezes and shade. Extra large fenced in yard was well kept and perfect for our dog. Comfortable, well stocked house - lower level suite was great for the kids to hang out. We had fun fishing, paddle boarding and kayaking. Owner was super easy to work with; we would definitely rent this home again.

Great Stay! Great Fishing!

This place was great, and the host was awesome! The fishing was amazing! Unfortunately, the downstairs was not cleaned very well and had several bugs and a few roaches. Once we cleaned it up ourselves no issues. Overall great stay and we would rent it again.

Wonderful stay

Tim was very nice to work with and the place was perfect for 11 of us! The kids had fun staying downstairs and loved the popcorn machine and Nintendo switch. This was our first time staying on the bay side and we really enjoyed it! Beach was so close by and we had fun fishing, swimming, and paddle boarding/ kayaking in the bay.

Bay Fishing with Framily

We had an amazing time at this property. The owner connected with us frequency before, during, and after to ensure everything was great. The outdoor area was perfect and the inside was super clean and comfy for our two families, 4 adults and 5 kids. The older boys really enjoyed staying downstairs and having their own space. Looking forward to coming back!
