Texas Star Beach House in Galveston

Hurrican Ike

We were very fortunate and bleassed that our little house made it through the
strom with only some fence damage and the loss of the tree in the back!

We realize that many residents are in need of a home at this time and there
are also the "First Responders" that need a place to stay while they help the
island get back on its feet.

Due to Hurrican Ike, we are temporarily suspending our "Vacation Rental"
status and would like to offer the home for a 6 or 12 month lease.

We will offer the house unfurnished, furnished or "As Is: if needed.

Please call for monthly rental fee and deposit information.


We are three blocks from the Beach! Convenient to the Strand, Moody
Gardens, the Convention Center and all the great Restaurants are
only a few minutes away.

We are thrilled to present this newly renovated house with three
bedrooms with the softest bedding in town, one faux finished bath
with a full tub and shower and a gorgeous newly designed kitchen.

The house is approx. 1300 sq.ft. and offers 2 Queen Size Beds and 1
set of bunk beds (the kids love'm), 2 sofas and 1 loveseat. (We also
have 2 additional twin mattresses for extra guests).

There is a fenced yard and gated driveway with plenty of side street
parking.

Please bring your cell phone as we do not have phone service at this
time.

We do not rent to prom groups, school groups, spring break groups,
fraternities or sororities. We welcome families, family oriented
groups and small coporate groups only.
