Just a short walk from the beach and loaded with awesome on-site amenities, this dog-friendly home is just what your family has been waiting to find for your next vacation! When you're not building sandcastles down at the beach or sightseeing the area, kick back on the spacious living room corner couch to watch your favorite movies and shows on the mounted flatscreen TV. The furnished wraparound deck is a great place to entertain your dinner guests with spectacular views and plenty of space for everyone to move around. Be sure to bring the complimentary beach towels with you when you head down to the beach, come home to spritz away the sand with the outdoor shower, then move inside to get something creative started in the full kitchen.

The kitchen is as beautiful as it is spacious, with stainless steel appliances, gorgeous cookware, and miles of counter space. The kids will love helping from the center prep island's barstool seats, and the dishwasher will knock out all the dirty dishes while you serve everyone up at the glass-top dining table with seating for up to eight guests. The private washer/dryer will take care of everyone's laundry after a hot-weather hike or some fun beachcombing and you'll love how quickly the central AC cools the place down. When it's time to turn in for the night, you'll have five bedrooms to take advantage of and a loft for extra sleepers, so everyone will have plenty of space and privacy during your stay. The first and second rooms both have queen-size beds, the third room has a double futon and a queen, the fourth and fifth rooms have queens as well, and there are double futons in the living room and the loft. The home's high-speed internet and free WiFi make it quick and easy for remote workers and students to complete their projects on time.

What's nearby:
This home is located within a short 1-2 minute walk to the beach, so be sure to pack extra sunscreen for your afternoons of sun and sand. Schlitterbahn Waterpark Galveston is just six miles east, where you'll find attractions like Bahnzai Pipeline, Cliffhanger, and Dragon Blaster. Spend some time at Galveston Island State Park to explore all the birdwatching and hiking trails the area has to offer.

Do Not Stay Here
The pictures are misleading. The pictures are just fuzzy enough to hide the problems Some of the furniture shown is not there. The upstairs balcony is in shambles; broken bar top, broken bench, broken chairs, holes in the wall, old wires and piping sticking out of the wall and broken railing. The AC for that room was ripped out. One refrigerator did not work and the other was missing shelves in the fridge and freezer so you had to pile food in. There was a refrigerator sitting in the driveway area wrapped up but no one showed up to install it. Not sure if it even worked. The inside was dirty when we arrived (roaches and old toe nail clippings). Two futons were broken so we had to buy a bed and two air mattresses. There are houses with actual beach access (this doesn’t have that) close by at comparable prices. DO YOUR RESEARCH! I have pics of all of this. Do not respond with a “we’re sorry your stay was bad”. These were not new issues. The pictures are just fuzzy enough to hide the problems.

Ocean view
Start off by saying it was cute, the location was amazing, and the beds were comfortable! Down side….the air conditioner didn’t work in the upstairs common area and the bedroom next to it so the people staying in there would sweat all night long…. Just a few cautions… the kitchen window was broke, the balcony had slats missing, and the cookware needs updating. We had small children with us so it was a little nerve racking worrying about them. Other than those few things we had a good time!

Had a great reunion
Was nice to have a place that was affordable, close to the beach, and big enough for kids and grandchildren. If I could give any feedback it would be the following: 1. Put a big trash can in kitchen. We had to use small trash cans from bathroom and was not enough. 2. Big roaches in house. Exterminate please! 3. Provide instructions on how to lock the house. We had electronics and had to carry our stuff with us each time we left because we couldn't lock the house.

Needs some TLC
The upstairs gets above 80 degrees during the day and is very hot. Balcony off the kitchen is missing some railing which makes it dangerous for small children to fall through. Location on the beach is fantastic and easy check-in.
