Great option for a large family

We loved that this house slept 5 couples and a number of children. The living area is all on one level, the same level as the pool, so it made together time awesome!

Nice place needs work

Enjoyed our stay but home needed some basic maintenance the grill did not work many lightbulbs were burnt out including oven lights and lights over the stove . The upper oven door does not close making it rather useless unless you prop it closed with a broom handle. The landscape needed some real attention . This home was well located and a nice facility but needs better upkeep.

Wonderful Getaway!

This property is positioned perfectly! It was close to lots of options for our family’s 4 day getaway! The pictures are great, but even more spacious and beautiful in person. There were plenty of towels for both shower and the pool to go around so no need to pack those. It was myself, my wife, and 8 of our children who stayed. Besides taking daily excursions, we enjoyed our time at the house with fishing, sunning, darts, billiards, making s’mores, and reading on the decks while enjoying the sound of the water and birds.I would highly recommend this as your next stay. The groundskeeper met us at the home and gave us a wonderful tour upon our arrival. When we had trouble with the TV service not working, he came out right away and got it sorted. We made some good family memories over our stay!

Great Home, HORRIBLE WEATHER

My party of 7 enjoyed the home. 10/10. Unfortunately, we didn’t have a chance to explore ANYTHING outside. High Seas, Rain Storm and temps in the 30s. This was a rare cold front. Owner did attempt to accommodate a different date, but tickets were purchased and other dates didn’t work for the rest of the party. Other than the weather, this property is the BOMB. Very spacious. Mr.Randy( Property Manager) is awesome. We WILL book again. Hopefully the owner remembers me and cut us a GREAT DEAL. Enjoyed our time. Thank you sir. GO NAVY BEAT ARMYMac

BEAUTIFUL!!!

This was the PERFECT home for 14 of my family & friends to gather and celebrate my 40th Birthday. Our check in process was seamless thank to Ralph. Waking up to the beautiful sunrise every morning was breathtaking. The home is equipped with EVERYTHING you need and the pools & hammock was perfect. We traveled to downtown Houston each day which was 30-45 min away on the weekend. I couldn't have asked for a better place to bring in my 40th Birthday. If you need a spacious home with a beautiful view don't hesitate to book this home.

Spacious rental

We had a remarkable four night stay. Just regret we didn’t stay longer. The view was spectacular and it was just a short distance from the Kemah Boardwalk. This rental was very clean and the overseer (Ralph) was so helpful in making sure we had everything we needed.for an enjoyable stay. And Clay the host was helpful in answering any of questions of concern. Looking forward to coming back again and will highly recommend it to others.
