Fish, swim, and kayak off the private dock at Barnacle Lodge, a dreamy three-bedroom, two-bath canal front home in Galveston’s desirable Sea Isle neighborhood.

Nestled between the bay and the sugar sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, the golf cart-friendly community of Sea Isle boasts amazing community amenities such as its own private marina and fishing pier, a sparkling pool, a covered pavilion, tennis courts and a playground. There’s even a convenience store and bait shop! Savor a seafood dinner at the marina’s Palapa Restaurant. Weekends call for live music and tropical drinks at the Sandbar.

This nautical-inspired Galveston vacation home is sure to delight your party of six with a wraparound porch, guest-use kayaks and an electric fireplace.

Barnacle Lodge’s open floor plan lets everyone relax and visit with each other whether unwinding on the sumptuous leather sofa or loveseat while enjoying a favorite movie on the TV or prepping a delicious dinner in the fully-equipped kitchen with a rolling island. Gather together at the dining table for great conversation and laughter over a shared meal

Savor the salty air and coastal breeze from your seat on the wraparound porch. Or head down to the covered patio and dock where you’ll find a table and chairs for outdoor dining. Grab one of the provided kayaks and paddle down the canal or fish off the dock. Please note that the boat slip is not available for guest use. In the evening, toast to an amazing vacation while you watch the sunset light up the sky in vibrant colors.

The spacious primary and second bedrooms at Barnacle Lodge feature wall-to-wall windows overlooking the canal, private doors to the outside and plush king-size beds. The cozy third bedroom is outfitted with a full-size bed. Stocked with plenty of fresh towels, two full bathrooms make it easy for everyone to get ready for the day’s adventures.

    Wonderful time; only complaints are that the patio lights underneath did not work, and the front bathroom bathtub would not drain.

    Oh where to begin.... love the location and loved the property. We had the best time for our first times in Gavelston. Even though non of the lights on the canal worked, we called with no answer, on our first day there the fridge went out, I call everyday being promised a fix and left with no fridge until the day before our last day the freezer went out. That is when I called and talked to the sweetest one, Abbey I believe. She had a fridge there in an hour why did the rest not succeed and we went 6 days with out a fridge. They did pay us a compensation of 550 but that was to include 280 for groceries that we lost. Love the house and the area. Communication on property management needs so help.
