Fabulous family get-together House

Every year in March we select a family destination and Galveston this year was wonderful. Loved the fishing & crabbing off the dock, beautiful scenery & sunsets, the house was really comfortable, had all amenities, and the commercial ice machine a bonus! Our host was very accomodating. We look forward to returning next year.

An Amazing Winter Vacation

This place is amazing. We had 2 families (that are best friends) plan a winter break vacation to some place warmer than Maryland. We nailed it with this house. Our teenager girls all bunked in the upstairs room. It was a week long slumber party. The view is spectacular and Ben was a pleasure to deal with. Would definitely recommend this house for the family who wants to relax with a great view.

Fantastic stay

Our family had a fantastic time at Ben's house. The location is perfect for fishing, relaxing and enjoy what all Galveston Bay has to offer. The view is wonderful around sunset time. Ben is a great host and super responsive to whatever question and need that we have. Would love to stay again in the future!

Weekend getaway

Great property in a great location away from all the hustle and bustle of the big beach. Very close to San Luis pass and several beaches for fishing or swimming. Massive gar under the lights at night and a few trout. Fishing wasn’t on that weekend, but we did have crabs in the trap. Highly recommend this off the beaten path gem. Owner is quick to respond and very nice.

Peaceful fishing paradise

Stayed for 6 days. The owners Ben and Linda met us at the house and showed us around the property and let us check in 2 hours early. The house is absolutely beautiful. You can watch sunsets and stars right of the top porch and fish of off the bottom porch. We will definitely be booking this property again.

About the host

Hosted by Ben Owens

Growing up in Houston, we have loved going to the beach and fishing our whole lives. We found our dream home in 2005. It is perfect for family gatherings and fishing and crabbing with the most beautiful sunsets on the island. The property has 100 feet of bulkhead and we added underwater lights so we can enjoy viewing the fish at night. Our 5 grand kids spend hours at the beach making sand castles and collecting shells and Catching fish and crabs off of the dock. All the sand toys you will ever need are provided. Even on rainy or cold days we can spend out time downstairs in covered patio and screened porch listening to music and BBQing and watching the chiminia .
