We had the perfect girls trip here! The house was spotless when we arrived and even smelled fresh and clean, which made a great first impression. We grilled fajitas on their charcoal grill, and the house had everything we needed for a fun weekend together. The owner was incredibly responsive and always replied to my messages almost immediately, which made everything so easy. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it!

What a lovely decorated renovated house in a quiet neighbourhood. A good walking distance to the pier/ beach and the Strand which is the older part of Galveston. 2 bedrooms upstairs with washroom and 1 bedroom on the main floor with a washroom as well. Lots of room for enjoying our family time.

Absolutely perfect place for our family! The beds were so comfortable that it was difficult to get my kids up each morning :-). Great job keeping the charm of an older home with all of the modern amenities available. We hope to stay here again when it's warm so we can enjoy the beach. Thank you again for helping create such a memorable stay!

We stayed a weekend here to enjoy Mardi Gras. Great location. One neighbor even said “hi” and was friendly. Lots of naturally light in the house. We could tell it had been renovated to open up the bottom floor so it felt very roomie and great for large groups. My college aged son and his girlfriend joined us one evening and we played a card game (provided at the house) as a family. House was clean and well organized!! We had no problems finding what we needed.

Michael was welcoming and quick to respond with any questions. The home is a nicely done restoration, well appointed, clean and comfortable. Beds are comfortable. Bathrooms nice. Plenty of living area. We enjoyed home cooked breakfasts from the nice kitchen utilizing cookware provided. Fold up chairs were a nice surprise as we were able to use them for local events. Great location with plenty of street parking available. We would book another stay here. Thanks!
