NOTES:
1. Absolute maximum of 14 guests and 5 vehicles on the property at any time during your stay. No exceptions. Thank you.
2. Depending on the tide level, the amount of beach area ebbs and flows, so to speak. At times, the sand in front of the house may be completely covered with water and at other times not at all. Regardless, you will always see the Pass, Gulf and beautiful bridge views.
AREA (IMPORTANT):
While this home looks right out to the stunning San Luis Pass and beautiful Gulf (perfect for bird watching, sunning, beachcombing, fishing & sunrise/sunset viewing), the state of Texas in late 2017 has put a restriction regarding swimming in the Pass because of unpredictable riptides. Therefore, neighborhood swimming, water sport and surf fishing beach is a 9 min walk. See image included.

The Neighborhood:
TREASURE ISLAND: Stop by the local convenience store to snag some basic supplies and beverages, fill your bait bucket and/or rent a golf cart. Enjoy the Gulfside's uncrowded pedestrian beach (no cars allowed for 300 yards but golf carts welcomed) where you can setup your group's spot for the day on the beach to build sandcastles, jump in the surf, find unique shells and sand dollars, boogie board, shore & surf fish and build an evening bonfire. Or if preferred, utilize the available launch for your boat or fishing pier on the bayside. Some much to do so little time!
Getting Around:
SAN LUIS PASS:
San Luis Pass and Treasure Island have been known all over the United States for being a saltwater fishing hotspot and the most amazing sunrises & sunsets! It is 15 minutes from Surfside and across the bridge from Galveston's west end and only about 25-30 minutes to the heart of Galveston Island's activities. Most people come to the area to spend quality 'non-commercialized" time with family, extended family, and friends!

Great place for family time
This home is perfect for a visit to the Gulf. It was well stocked, comfortable, and right on the ocean! Wonderful hosts were quick to answer questions. We will be staying here again!
The family had a great time despite the fact that the breaker in one of the downstairs bedrooms kept blowing and they spent the entire trip without a/c and light in that room. There was a drowning 6 weeks ago on that piece of the beach so there was no swimming allowed and we were not informed of that by the property management company, very dangerous to swim there. Otherwise, a great time was had by all and great family memories made.
this property has everything thing you need for a fun and relaxing vacation
Location was nice and quiet with a beautiful view. Plenty of games in the house for the kids to play on rainy days. Beds were comfortable.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved the view, the beach toys for kids, searching for cool shells and building/designing and playing in the sand. The house comfortably accommodated 13 of us. Everyone enjoyed catching huge shrimp and crabs large enough to boil with a simple net. With the smaller shrimp as bait we caught fish right from the beach. It was a ten minute walk to the swimming beach or a few minutes ride.
Overall we enjoyed the property. There was plenty of room, the beds were very comfortable and the house was clean. Our only disappointment was that there was no beach in front of the house any time of the day. The tide was always up to the lower deck. The staircase to the beach/water shown in the photos did not exist. We had to walk down a couple of house to find any sand/beach. With that said, we still had a great time. The kids had fun in the water, catching crabs and making sandcastles. We had a couple of issues but response from the property managers was quick. The code to the main door did not work when we arrived but they sent a new one within 30 minutes. The lock actually broke midweek and the repair man was there quickly to fix it. The icemaker broke a few days before we arrived but we were told ahead of time so we were able to purchase ice. Other than that we had a great time.
The house was great. The only negative issues were the ice makers did not function and the beach did not match the photos. There was no beach in front of this property; however, we enjoyed our stay.
It was a very nice vacation but the beach in the picture was not there. The tide was very high all week and it is very far from stores. So if you go to Galveston a lot while you're there you will have about 20 to 30 minutes and a $2 toll on the bridge both ways.
Property was very nice and booking and checking in was very easy. Only downfall is the pictures of outside show more beach out in front of the house and alot has been washed away. We still had a great beach on the side of the neighboring house, and we rented a golf cart to drive to a bigger nicer beach a couple of blocks away. Overall great experience.
