Sunny San Leon is a peninsula that juts out into Galveston Bay. This small bayside community is located 14 miles North of Galveston Island, 10 miles South of Kemah Waterfront and 33 miles South of Houston. You will be right around the corner from Topwater Grill, known for its fresh fish and fishing tournaments, award winning restaurant Gilhooley’s, repeatedly voted “best smoked oysters in the Bay Area, and Pier 6 Seafood and Oyster House, a chef-driven waterfront seafood and oyster bar located directly on Galveston Bay. The neighborhood also features locally owned and operated Railean’s Distillery featuring tasting tours and souvineer shot glass, Sunset Lounge fishing pier, and Eagle Point Fishing Camp for fresh and frozen bait and other fishing supplies.
This one room studio has a private entrance and is on the ground level of an artist's home that was featured in Coast magazine. There is a fully equipped kitchen which includes a stove, microwave, and stainless steel refrigerator with ice-maker. The space includes a queen size bed, a sectional sofa, an original Cushman paddle-arm sofa, and a comfy mid-century modern chair paired with a genuine, previously owned Mason’s ottoman from the 1940s. Internet access and a large screen tv with Netflix, Amazon Prime, PLEX and Roku as well as a vintage formica dining room table that seats four, completes the furnishings.

A private bathroom with a hand painted ceramic sink and tiled shower is stocked with fresh towels. This studio features stained concrete floors, custom wood shutters and an individually remote controlled ac/heater unit. From every window, there is an unobstructed view of Galveston Bay. Many lounge chairs provide a perfect spot to watch the pelicans, blue herons and seagulls that live at the water's edge as working shrimp boats and various pleasure crafts dot the horizon. An outdoor gas grill, table and cushioned chairs provides a waterfront cooking and dining spot. A waterfront fire pit at the property’s edge offers a place to roast marshmallow or simply gaze at the moon and the stars as they reflect off of Galveston Bay. A street-side electric fireplace and sectional seating area provides additional seating options.
If your needs include additional space, the remaining 2nd and 3rd level of the home can be leased to accommodates another 4 adults.

Please note that the second and third level of this home are separately leased. To check availability: https://www.vrbo.com/2441551 noDates=true&unitId=3009340

    From the minute we arrived we knew we had made the perfect choice. Very laid back atmosphere, the owners were super wonderful in giving us our alone time in spite of the fact that they reside on property. Not to mention when we did meet them they were great people. Really enjoyed all the amenities they provided. Everyday we were there we noticed a different trinket around the property. We would have enjoyed a pier to fish off of however this would not keep us from renting this property again, soon!

    This was a neat find for us. The outdoor fire pit was a bonus. Plenty of seating/lounging outside. Very roomy and comfortable inside.

    I arrived the day after the hurricane. Even though I had no power the whole week, it was awesome!! The view of being on the water every morning was amazing! The owner got me a fan and a battery for the evenings. And a cooler of ice so I could keep some things cold. The suite is very well played out and beautiful! I had a great time!

    This was the perfect place for a quick 2-night getaway. Really artsy and eclectic. Comfortable and clean. Right on the water.

    I truly loved this property from the moment I saw the pictures until I saw it in person. However, there was such a SWARM of mosquitoes, we could hardly retrieve the key out of the box. Once we did get inside, the studio again was darling. Just my eclectic, hippie style. The problem was going outside. We couldn't! We could not sit outside and enjoy the water, or sit at all the groovy little vignettes that had been set up. I love that stuff! We could barely get to our car. We had to spray ourselves down and spray the car down and drive away with all the windows down to get the mosquitoes out of the car. Sad to say we will definitely not be back. I'd like to suggest that something must be mentioned in your description about mosquitoes. Maybe suggest malaria shots? cw
