House was exactly as stated. Andy was great at communicating and let us know he was available if we had any issues. Location was great and in the middle of everything we wanted to see. Would definitely stay here again!

Great little cottage.

My husband and I stayed at this cottage for a couple days for a family funeral. It was perfect for the two of us and was so well thought out and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

So close to the beach!

Super cute and very well stocked kitchen with all plates and utensils we would need. Was just a short walk from the beach! We only had a small issue getting into the property but the Host was super helpful as well as the VRBO representative we talked to. We love Galveston and loved the location of this property!
