Girls’ trip

We enjoyed our stay. The house was cozy and lovely. We enjoyed our coffee on the porch in the morning or sometimes even a short walk around the neighborhood. It had all the amenities we needed. We would stay here again, as well as recommended for small groups.

Good Times were had by all

Very comfortable for three people, in a convenient location if you rent a car. Not perfect if you have mobility issues, but doable. Lockbox proved difficult to open, but owners/managers were very responsive. We would stay again.

Galveston vacation

The state was nice. The property manager was helpful. Cute little Home to stay in for a vacation. The only reason why it has three stars is because the washing machine did not work. Other than that, the stay was very enjoyable. We will be staying again in the future. Thanks, God bless.

COZIEST COTTAGE!

This is our second summer here and it was just as perfect this time as our last! It's so hard to write anything when everything is amazing! Which is a great thing! The cottage feels like your home... it is super clean, has plenty of paper towels/ toilet paper, cooking pots/ pans for cooking, towels etc...The beds are comfy, with soft sheets and nice comforter. **AND they actually let you USE the air conditioner and set the temperature!!!! If you stay in enough VRBOS you KNOW what I mean!!! Huge, huge plus being in the heat and humidity of August in Galveston! :)You will not go wrong staying here. We will be back!Thank you Cy for sharing your gorgeous home!P.S. Street is quite and always felt safe!!!
So inviting!
Cute decor
Just the right size open kitchen.
