Great place to stay for the week to enjoy the beach and surrounding area. This place was clean and comfortable for my family of 5... We loved being on the canal and having access to the kayaks.
Great spot for family day, vacay, or just to relax and get away. House is well equipped, so travel lite and everything you need is there.

Thank you for your stay and for sharing your 10/10 experience! Happy to hear you enjoyed and had everything you needed. Hope to welcome you again soon!
Smooth booking, check in and check our process. Clear and concise info provided. Accommodations were impeccable. Waterfront/canal location was amazing! Appealing marine/nautical decor throughout the house. Accommodations were comfortable and felt like “home”. Kitchen was well equipped. The setting of the property further contributed to a wonderful stay. Thank you to the host and the management company. Well done!!!!
It was a very nice property but the closet door was broken and some of the lights on the back side balcony didnt work so it was completely dark at night out there. Other than that it was a wonderful stay.

Fabulous 2 week stay!
My kids and I recently stayed at this lovely house on the canal for two weeks and we had a blast! The kids swam and fished daily and the beach was a short 4 minute drive. We went every night for sunset and it was beautiful! The house was perfect for us and our dogs. It was a great getaway!
The home was very clean and cozy. The host was accessible and responsive. We caught quite a few fish from the house which was nice for the kids. The front door knob was loose which was reported to the host. The upstairs and downstairs back patio lights were not working so it was pretty dark out at night. Overall, we had a good stay.

We are happy to hear that the home was clean and comfortable and that we were able to quickly respond to any questions or concerns! We have addressed the knob and the lights and we appreciate you bringing these to our attention.
Nice house with great canal location in Jamaica Beach. Outdoor shower and 2 kayaks were big hits with my kids. If you have small kids be aware that the master bedroom is downstairs in the converted garage, so no access inside, have to go outside through separate doors. Easy booking, communication and check in.
The experience we had while staying in this rental was incredible! We had such a great and peaceful stay, we did not want to leave! The home is beautiful and so welcoming and cozy, it felt like home. The neighborhood is lovely, quiet and serene. There were kayaks that we took advantage of every day we were there, we had such a blast! We felt very safe with the life jackets they had provided. We even caught several crab in the crab trap they had tide off. We fished right off the lower level patio which was so awesome not having to lug our fishing equipment to a pier. The beach access was right down the road and we also found some nice places to eat close by without having to go all the way in to galveston. They have a washing machine provided with detergent pods available which was really nice, full kitchen if you want to cook or make coffee, a grill, fish cleaning station outside, an outdoor shower. This place had it all. The additional conversion downstairs was also very cozy. The bed we used downstairs was very comfortable and the room stayed cool all night long. We slept so good! It was also so nice that we were able to bring our fur babies, we really appreciate that in a rental. We loved our stay here and look forward to coming back!
