About this property

only a 2 block walk to a private beach perfect for families

2 block walk only to a private beach Surf Shack is a perfect location. Open floor plan is ideal for entertaining and all rooms on same floor. W/ the lights on the Front deck listening to the waves at night is tranquil. vacant lots on 3 sides offer peace from neighbors. Cornhole, washer boards and horseshoes offer fun for everyone while at the house. Also 2 blocks to an amazing pizza place, large convenient store and liquor store makes for a great location.

Quaint Place Very Near Beach

We had a great stay in Galveston! The house was clean upon arrival and was super comfortable for our party of 7. The house had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The beds were cozy, we had plenty of hot water, and the a/c worked great! Proximity to the beach was excellent as well!

Peaceful and a breeze

Checking in was a breeze. The beach was wonderful, within walking distance. There weren’t many people around and we felt like we had the beach to ourself. The house was great. Plenty of porch space. The layout of the house was very open and enjoyable for our family to spend time with each other. Thank you for everything, Sean!
