    This was our 4th time staying here and once again, it did not disappoint. The things that keep us coming back: the cleanliness of the house, the view of the ocean, the way we can relax on the lower deck, the fact that there are not crowds of people on this part of the beach, the comfy and cozy feel of the house, and the communication with the host. I can assure we’ll return again!

    Our family loved this house! It has everything you need to enjoy your time on the beach! Loved both decks and the outdoor shower to rinse off after walking back from the beach. Kitchen has everything you need for preparing meals. The views from both decks were stunning - and the breeze on the second deck was amazing!

    Amazing house with just as amazing views! We loved having both the upper and lower deck to relax on at different times of the day and night. The house was decorated so cute and had everything we needed and more, and was peaceful and quiet there too. We had the beach almost exclusively to ourselves! Couldn’t have been better!

    We really wanted to stay a little more off the beaten path, having previously stayed in Crystal Beach and various places on Galveston Island, and this house was absolutely wonderful. Panoramic views of the Gulf, direct beach access right across the road, and not much other human traffic., it was perfect. The house was clean, very spacious for us, with anything we could ask for for amenities. We particularly loved the two decks. Highly highly recommended!
