About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

On the water; Sunrise/sunset views; Great fishing; Spacious;Plenty of activities

On the water rental property with brilliant front and back water views, very close to the open bay perfect for entertaining or for rest and relaxation away from the crowd in this peaceful neighborhood. Truly one of Galveston's hidden gems!

Enjoy breathtaking water views from virtually all corners of the house, along with beautiful sunrises/sunsets from the decks in any of the three bedrooms, or head down to the lower deck where you can catch a wide variety of fish, crabs, or grab a kayak or paddle board and spend part of your day out on the clam, pristine waters. Upstairs you will find a newly updated living area with 3 bedrooms. The master bedroom on the third level has its own private balcony and spacious en-suite bathroom with a balcony where you can watch the gorgeous sunset. The second bedroom has a queen bed. The third bedroom perfect for kids has a twin over full bunkbed, and another twin over twin plus trundle bunk. Queen-size folding bed and the living room sofas can be used for sleeping extra guests. The main deck provides plenty of space for entertaining. A light in the canal right in front of the house allows for viewing of fish during the nighttime hours. Garage downstairs serves as a game room where you can challenge family or friends to a round of ping pong or darts. The community boat ramp, pier and pavilion are conveniently located right across the street from the house. There is plenty of parking on the driveway and on the street for larger groups. You are only a 3 minute drive away from Bay Harbor beach. The very beautiful, untamed white sand beaches and sand bars along the San Luis Pass, where you can drive your car or 4-wheel vehicles, is a popular fishing spot and is only 9 mins away. For added convenience, a short drive will also get you to the local grocery store, bait shops, gas stations, and restaurants.
All you need to bring are clothes, toiletries, and food, and you are ready to enjoy your home away from home!

Beautiful Bayside

The house was exceptionally clean, very comfortable, and lots of room for our family to enjoy.The home had water crafts to enjoy the canal and bay area. Wonderful location to the bay with great fishing and a green light for night fishing or just watching all the fish. We brought our boat and the boat ramp was very conveniently located directly across from the house. We highly recommend this home and would love to return in the future.

Awesome place to stay

Overall very cool place. Went down for qa fishing trip and we were not disappointed, we were able to fish sun up to sun down and were constantly on fish. My one complaint is that it was a bit of a drive if we needed to go back into town bit thats a very minor complaint

Don’t know what to say

Kayak has leaking, bike has broken tires, dog poop in the yard so we can’t really hang out and play in the grass, furniture needs updating, bunk beds are very hard to sleep on, bathroom frames have water damage, I had to clean the place before my family got there, example, the doo out to the deck was so dirty, I was so surprised, seeing the pictures and being there in person, for the price I thought it would at least be what the pictures showed, it looks like the pictures was taken years ago, we booked for three nights, but left after two nights. The owner was really nice, but unfortunately I can’t recommend this to my friends.
