House on the canal.

Cute home for a small family. Property has a canal in the backyard which was great for fishing and some crabbing. Drive on beach was very close and not as crowded as the main beach area in Galveston. Host was very attentive no complaints.

Cute, quiet, and perfect location

We had a fantastic stay at this home! The location was perfect — great for the kids to fish right outside, and just a short drive to the beach. With some helpful tips from the friendly neighbor, we caught several different kinds of fish, making the experience even more memorable. The house had everything we needed and was an great fit for our family of four. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Summer 25 Trip

Very cute, well stocked, and great view of the canals with the wall to wall windows in the living room. Grandkids got to kayak for the first time in the kayaks provided. Also, caught lots of fish on the canal! It was perfect for our family of four. We'd definitely stay there again! Matt was extremely helpful!!

We had such a wonderful stay at this VRBO! The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the sheets felt like something out of a luxury hotel—we all slept so well. The kitchen was fully stocked with great amenities, which made cooking and hanging out a breeze. We especially loved using the kayaks, which added such a fun and memorable element to our trip. The cozy decor throughout the home made it feel warm, welcoming, and perfect for relaxing after a day outside. It was also a short drive to Jamaica Beach. We’d absolutely stay here again!

We had a blast and the home was very clean and comfortable. Our 2 boys basically lived outside. They loved fishing, swimming, kayaking and just exploring all the ocean had to offer. Kitchen was large and had everything we needed. Property owner was quick to respond with any questions we had.

annual beach girl trip

Upon arrival we loved the location of the property. It was easy to find and we had good directions on what to do once we arrived. We had a fully stocked kitchen and the house was decorated very cute. Beds were comfy and we had lots of linens in the bath. There was a very nice neighbor that gave us some tips on fishing. I loved the fact you could fish right outside the property. We had a wonderful time!

Why they chose this property

I bought this property originally as a vacation home. The big water view at the T intersection of two of the larger canals was a big draw. I love the way my mood changes as soon I crest the causeway and descend to the island.

What makes this property unique

THE VIEW! Being at the T intersection of tow of the large canals make for a much bigger water view than most of the canal houses.
