Great communication, house was just as described. Perfect for the staying before a cruise. Not sure why people have it bad reviews. It is an old house that has many updates. We would stay here again.

Really cute place. Pool was nice and great for our group. Driveway entry was terrible, if you drive a big truck it won’t fit in the back. The hosts were great. Only major complaint is the floors were so dirty, we had to wear shoes at all times.
The home is very beautiful and clean! The beds were very comfortable. The bottom bedroom was a bit warm during the day but you had plenty of fans to help keep it cool! We had a great time!

Rick - Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the home and had a great time. We’d love to welcome you back for another stay!
Initially had concerns of neighborhood but it was really fine. Location worked for what we needed. Considering how many the home sleeps theres Not enough seating in kitchen or living room. Floors could use a real good cleaning! The furniture isn’t comfortable. A few of the beds need better mattresses.
Barb - Thank you so much! We're thrilled you enjoyed the house, and we'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Russel. Hope to have you stay again soon!
Excellent location tonstay right on the road and close to the Galveston beach. Clean house and met the expectation as listed. Rooms were cozy and private pool was clean for kids to enjoy.

Birju - Thank you for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed the location, cleanliness, and private pool. We hope to welcome you back soon!
We stayed for two nights before our family cruise and wish we stayed longer! The house is large with plenty of beds. We had 10 adults and three children. We loved sitting on the front porch and watching people go by. We would stay again!

Thanks for the 5-star review, Tracey! So glad you had a great time staying with us.
My family spent the 4th of July at this beautiful home in the heart of Galveston. I am not familiar with Galveston so wasn’t aware that it is located on a main thoroughfare. But it was still relatively quiet and close to everything we needed. The property management was great to work with and answered all of my questions. I definitely recommend this home!
