A terrific home - best place to stay on Karankawa Beach. A very spacious home (we had 12 people) with everything you need. A huge dining table for eating, socializing and game playing. Plenty of showers and bathrooms. And of course, right on the beach! Just fantastic!

Overall, a great beach house

The house was great for a beach getaway. However, two things kept me from giving 5 stars. First, the high chair tray was in the bottom of a mop bucket and so gross. I had to scrub it so much before I could feed my baby. Second, i received info beforehand that the keypad on the door didnt work and would need to unlock a lockbox to retrieve physical keys. But when we got there, it was just a simple code to unlock the front door (discovered after searching for the old lock box for 10 minutes).

Awesome!!!

Everything is look like the pictures it was super super nice we had the view of the sea so nice i would definitely come back Just a comment for the owners, one arrives super loaded with things and you can't use the forklift so that unpacking isn't so hard, especially when you have older people who can't carry everything else. It was incredible and we would gladly return.excelent!!!!

The location is perfect! Far enough away from Seawall but close to enough to everything. The house is stunning with large windows and direct beach access. Not enough characters for all the greatness here!

Great for little kids

Was amazing to drink my coffee on deck in early mornings while kids played in sand just below. Love the proximity to beach and it was a portion where you can't drive vehicles so the kids were safer. Also, the owners had a ton of sand toys and umbrella and wagon for the beach so we only had to bring our necessities vs all of the normal beach stuff!

This is a great house. We had 2 families and the layout suited the number of people. The private bridge to the beach was great! Quiet yet a good proximity to restaurants.
