Amazing stay at captains cottage

The property was beautiful and honestly the pictures did not do it justice. Plenty of room for our family stay. The kitchen in Patio we’re perfect for our family talks and laughter. The owner of the property was so kind and friendly. 10/10 would definitely stay here again!

Huge house and wonderful location

There was plenty of space and the kitchen was well equipped. Very important - the beds were all in excellent condition. One change that could help those of us with older backs would be to replace the really soft couch with something firm; a love seat or a couple of chairs. This is a very nice property.

Great Location Near Strand

Property was in a great location. We were able to easily walk to many attractions in historic Strand area, and it was a 5 minute drive to the beach. The house itself had everything we needed to cook our meals for the majority of our stay. We had originally planned to have six of us in the house (4 adults and 2 children), but 2 ended up not being able to attend. I would say we had way more room than we needed for just 4 people, but if we came down again with a larger party, it would be just right.

Loved it!

We had a fantastic time. Everything was as described. Perfect set up for large Family. Love the fenced in backyard. Had extras such as playpen and highchair. so close to all the activities we wanted to go out and do. My only complaint would be that parking sometimes was difficult to get close to the house on the street. Most of our stay that wasn’t a problem. If we visit the Galveston area again I hope this location is open!

Great House with a lot of history.

We enjoyed the stay. There was plenty of room for everyone. The only pow as that the pots and pans were dirty. I don’t think it’s wise to have the renters put away the dishes. Other places have you to put dirty dishes in the dishwasher. That way they can check them before the next renter comes in. Otherwise it was great!

Even better than expected!

This house is much bigger than we thought from the online listing. There were 8 of us and we never felt crowded or cramped. House was beautiful, clean, comfortable & really well stocked. We loved the location & the hot tub was nice after a long day of adventure. Julie was a perfect host & we would definitely consider staying at the Captains Cottage again!

Beautiful house, great location!

This house was in the perfect location! Close to the beach, delicious eateries, and easy to get to. Our party of 9 had plenty of room to visit and eat, even with 3 kids. Spacious back yard, which was ideal after a day at the beach. Highly recommend for any occasion!

Beach Bash Weekend

We had or annual girls beach bash at the Captain's Cottage this year. The whole experience was amazing. The house was clean, bigger than we expected, and overall had a very comfy atmosphere. Neighbors were nice, and would recommend having one or two cars since parking is limited to the street. Home owner was very kind, and the house is just a short drive from the beach. There are a couple cute restaurants and cafes within walking distance. We will hopefully be back next year for the next beach bash!

Great location and charming home

Very comfortable stay for 6 adults. We loved having 3 separate bathrooms. The location was perfect for access to charming local restaurants and touring of the historic Strand and Eastern Seawall. Be sure to bring your own Roku/streaming device as well as ice and bath soap/shampoos. The owners are lovely people and we enjoyed celebrating July 4th in such a lovely home.

GOOD TIMES

5 Adults and 4 Kiddos had a great time at the Captain’s Cottage. It was a very comfortable and spacious house with the rooms spaced out to allow for lots of privacy. The neighborhood felt very safe…day and night. We walked to the Strand, the beaches, Pleasure Pier and bars. GOOD TIMES WERE HAD BY ALL!!!
