Great location and view!

The location was great- short walk to the beach and wagon available! The view was very nice and the porch/seating are great until about 11am when the sun hits and my kids loved the hammock. The home was clean with functional furniture and kitchen supplies. The mattresses were flimsy and water pressure was lacking. Not really an issue for us, but the interior staircase is tiny, so outside is more useful for loading/unloading. Be sure to read the description closely, as 3 “bedrooms” is misleading. The master is very spacious, but second room has a grouping of bunks with a door and the third is the downstairs living room with futon/fold out. I’d stay again being a little more mindful of the bedroom situation because the location can’t be beat.

Functional little beach cottage with great air conditioning

While it is a small cottage - it is very functional and has more than square footage conveys. We never cooked but had breakfast and lots of coffee every day. WiFi was very good strength. Beds were comfy. Air Conditioning is fantastic. Both upstairs showers were very good. Location is amazing - only few houses from beach. The upstairs outdoor seating though is mainly in the sun after about 11am. Beach won't be the crowded because not much parking available at the beach (and you can't drive onto the beach). The new bar that is close by (about 0.8 mile walk) is cute, lots of games to play - no children allowed though. The location is perfect for state park (Great hiking on inner bay side). Restaurants nearby are great - try Way West Grill and Waterman's Restaurant. . Go downtown - and try the Toujouse Bar at the Tremonth Hotel. Visit the many Juneteenth sites . Try Galveston Island Beer. and eat at Fisherman's Wharf restaurant. Note the stairs INSIDE are curved and a little challenging if you have knee issues or above a certain age. The downstairs can feel secluded from upstairs - but the bed is really just laying across a couch. We used OUTDOOR stairs to go up/down because easier on the knees and not space limited for carrying stuff. The only reason not perfect is the 2nd bedroom (which is upstairs) does NOT seal off. It has an opening at the top of the wall. Hard to explain the layout. The downstairs "bed' is really just to lay on the couch. The other ding was

Perfect location, run down property

I’ll start with the pros: amazing location, walk to the beach, can see & hear the waves crashing from the deck, small, but a perfect size nice bed layout for a small family get away. Now, for the cons: this property is RUN DOWN. It needs a deep cleaning & some fresh paint. It has not been well maintained. We had 4 people & only 2 full size bath towels. All the lamps were missing light bulbs, there were ANTS in the master bed! The sliding doors to the washer & dryer fell off the track. We had NO wifi the entire time we were there, which meant no tv streaming. So, the post-beach lazy pizza & movie night were out! The property manager did bring us towels & lightbulbs. But no one came to fix the wifi. They texted me instructions to reset the modem. Which I did & it didn’t work, & after that-nothing. The bottom floor of the house is basically unusable as additional sleeping area. It is so sticky & humid, no one could sleep there. All we used the downstairs for was to rinse off the the sand & do laundry. Everything in the house felt stripped down. Rods hung, but missing the curtains. We made it work for just a quick weekend get away. But, it was far from East & relaxing & wouldn’t recommend or stay there again.
