Amazing
I have to honestly say this was perfect. The house was big enough. It was clean. Everything that we needed was there plenty of towels. However, I did not like if you do not clean the towels. You had a 5 charge but turning on the jacuzzi was amazing. Everything was wonderful.

Great house for an extended family stay
Outstanding experience overall and great place for kids. Had the whole extended family with kids 2-17. The house was great, playroom (w toys) and infant stuff (high chair, stroller and crib) was very helpful. Children's museum and a park are walking distance, great central location. Pool, hottub and the playscape in backyard were great for kids.

Perfect Family Vacation Home!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this vacation rental! The house was perfect for our family vacation, accommodating our large group of 18 with ease. The spacious layout allowed everyone to have their own space, while the common areas were perfect for gathering together.
The kids loved the pool and spent hours splashing around, while the adults enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub. The outdoor area was fantastic, with plenty of seating and a great grill for family barbecues. Inside, the house was clean and well-maintained, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully stocked, making it easy to prepare meals for our large group.
The location was ideal, with easy access to all of Galveston’s attractions. We loved being so close to the beach and the Strand, and the nearby Bryan Museum was a hit with everyone. The check-in and check-out process was seamless, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay.
Overall, this house truly felt like a home away from home. We made so many wonderful memories here and can’t wait to return for our next family vacation. Highly recommend!

Birthday Celebration Stay
We had an amazing stay at this house! The location is unbeatable, with easy access to all of Galveston’s attractions. The house itself is spacious and perfect for our large family gathering. We had 20 people in our group, and everyone had plenty of room to spread out and relax. The pool was a highlight for both kids and adults, and we spent most of our time there. The house was clean and well-maintained, and the new AC units kept us cool during the hot summer days. The check-in and check-out process was seamless, and the host was always quick to respond to any questions we had. We loved the charm of this older home, and it truly felt like a home away from home. We can’t wait to come back for our next family reunion!

Repeat Stay Perfect for Large Group and Family
We have stayed here before and have always been spoiled by the number of bedrooms that can more than accommodate our big group of all ages. It’s hard to find this kind of house anywhere else without paying a crazy high price. The pool is wonderful and so clean. We spent more time here than at the beach, which was a short walk away! New ac units had just been installed right before our stay too which was so great in the summer heat! Perfect area for getting to Galveston’s attractions. The Bryan Museum is right down the street and the Strand is a quick walk! Though we didn’t leave the property much, it was a great place to reconnect.

A Nice Big House!!!
We enjoyed our stay at this house. The location is convenient to EVERYTHING. The house is big and spacious. There were a total of 24 people in our party and everyone had room to spread out. The outside living space was just as nice. Everything was nice and clean. We felt like we were at home away from home. It is an older home but we felt as if it added to the charm. We did see a few homeless people but they didn't bother us at all. We felt safe 100% of the time. The check-in/out procedure was very simple. The instructions were simple to follow. Although I never spoke with the homeowner I felt like they were only an email away (😊). Would we rent this property again? In a heartbeat!

Kid friendly family reunion vacation home
The pool, hot tub, gazebo and swing set/slide area were perfect for entertaining kids and adults! Inside, we had plenty of room to spread out!
The kids had so much fun playing hide and seek in this home with so many rooms. The little kids had fun in the sunny play room, well stocked with toys.
The washer and dryer got a work out— although we were supplied with dozens of pool and bath towels!
The older kids loved walking right around the corner to the smash burger and bagel place— outstanding fries and burgers.
We used the outdoor grill one night.
Inside, the house is older and well loved, which is great from our point of view because with lots of little kids the last thing you want on vacation is to be overly worried about white couches or fancy furnishings.
The house is comfortable and kid friendly. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need.
Juli was very quick responding to messages.
We had a wonderful time

Lots of bedrooms/bathrooms for family get-together
This house adequately fills bedroom and bath needs for large groups, with a dorm-like feel. It would benefit from a stem to stern refresh, some maintenance, and a more thorough check list by the cleaning crew. This extends to the yard, playscape, and pool deck furniture as well. The pool and hot tub were nice. The immediate neighborhood is eclectic and not gentrified. Many in our party walked extensively in the area without too much concern.

Nice, but very dated.
The house is old and dated. Clean for the most part, but nadty carpet and musty smell throughout. One tv was in one small living area. I'd at another tv or 4. Trash can in kitchen was disgusting and should be replaced. Both front and back stairs are not handicap accessible with no rails. No rails inside house stairs. Hot tub not elderly friendly. Pool was refreshing but tall grass, ants and mosquitos made outdoors activities limited. Neighborhood is kinda uncomfortable. Alot of transients and trash on streets and sidewalks. Low income apartments a block over. It was alot of money for a vrbo in this area for this house. Sadly disappointed.

Lots of great space.
Our group of 16 adults stayed for 5 nights. There were so many amazing aspects to the home but a few areas that need to be noted.
Concerns: low water pressure in the older part of the home. Typically not an issue till there were 20 year old girls in each of the showers. It also made it difficult to flush some of the toilets as it took pretty long for them to refill.
Some of the furnishings need replaced. Cabinet handles came off easy, kitchen benches/chairs wobbly, some bathroom tiles were lose.
Washer and dryer were great but a bit small for beach towels, clothes, bath towels etc.
App for pool was a bit wonky at times. It did not always respond as hostess requested but overall worked for our needs.
Positives: the size is amazing! So much space and super clean. The refrigerator held everything needed to cook all our meals which is very impressive. The contact with the hostess was the BEST we ever experienced. The majority of the beds were very comfortable. Lots of extra towels were available as well as every appliance and kitchen tool needed. Dishwasher worked great. The pool was wonderful and where we spent most of our time. The house is perfectly located next to everything. The off street parking was very convenient.
The play area was pretty impressive, even though our group did not use it.
Would definitely book again!

Large and inviting house with great pool
If y’all are looking for a place with lots of rooms and near to a lot of local attractions, this is the place. Enjoyed the spacious kitchen and dining room and spent most of the time in the pool. Owners are very responsive and provide all the info you need while you stay there. There is some construction going on out front so the roads were extra congested but didn’t detract from the stay nor could the owners control that, just a heads up for people staying in the near future. Would stay again.

The perfect house!!!
This place was absolutely perfect!! The house is so cool!! There were so many of us, but it never felt like we were on top of each other, even in the kitchen! Speaking of the kitchen, it was super well stocked and spacious.
The backyard is incredible! So much room and the pool was exactly what we had hoped for.
We were worried when the walking haunted tour started heading to the street that the house was on... but ill leave that tidbit for those that take one of the cool tours.
We never had a problem haing the hot tub turned on or off for us. Thanks to whomever did that, the older "kids" loved sitting out there when the littles got out of the pool.
Anyway, everyone absolutely love it and we've already talked about staying there again.

Galveston getaway
We had 13 ppl stay here, lots of room choices and bathrooms worked out well for everyone. We washed the towel/pool towels regularly as it was easy to do with the washer/dryer. Used the charcoal grill-bought some and left some...Kitchen was large, plenty of room to cook/make things. Need steak knives, did not see any. Other things were well stocked.
Walking distance to the Strand district and a good walk to the gulf/pier but doable. Ubers were readily available but only used them to get back to the house.
Has a bagel shop around corner-Good sandwiches both breakfast and lunch-right next to the bagel ship there is a smash burger truck-great burgers!
Owners were very attentive and answered back quickly.
We would stay here again.
