Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Kathy Gundling
We, Steven and Kathy are from Friendswood Texas. It’s just up the road from the island about 30 minutes.
We’ve lived here 35 years and been doing business on the island for almost 6 years.
We developed our short term rental home into a home for families, large families, and generational families.
We have seven children and 10 grandchildren, so we know what a family needs in a vacation rental.

Why they chose this property
Actually, this property chose us. While having dinner at Fish Tales, we saw sign that it was for sale. We looked at it and bought it.
We had five short term rental units on Galveston island and this is the only one we have left. We love it and we think your family will too.

What makes this property unique
If you look at the front of the house, you will see a porch and an upper deck that expand the width of the house (30ft).
It gives you amazing ocean views, and fantastic shots of everything going on on the island.
These decks are the best place to live on the island. You don’t miss a thing.
