We had a great time. Being able to fish all day and night was great. House was cute and cozy and just the right size for our little family. Beach just down the street the whole area was beautiful. Will be back. Bait stores all around also frozen and fresh!

GREETINGS FROM THE SINGLETONS!

WE ARE A FAMILY OF FIVE FROM SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH AND INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL TO OWN OUR LITTLE VACATION HOME.

LIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS IS AMAZING ... HOWEVER, THE OCEAN IS ALWAYS CALLING.

HAVING A REGULAR 'ESCAPE' FROM THE SNOW HAD BEEN A DREAM OF OURS FOR YEARS.

WHILE VISITING GALVESTON FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 2020, WE IMMEDIATELY KNEW TEXAS WAS A PLACE SIMILAR TO UTAH - A COMMUNITY WITH FRIENDLY PEOPLE AND GOOD VALUES.

IT IS AWESOME.

WE HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR STAY AS MUCH AS WE DO!

Dennis, Lina, Finley (15yrs), Mara (12yrs) & Oriah (19mo)
