Summary: We love this house and will continue to book it! Just a few hiccups - The internet wasn’t working but someone brought a hot spot to us. Three vendors showed up during the week and we weren’t made aware of them coming. We discovered mid-week that the dryer didn’t work (and had a load of clean wet clothes. We reported it but no one responded. Then the dryer repair just showed up one day. He wasn’t able to fix it. We never heard from the property mgr about this - so we couldn’t wash clothes. We would’ve appreciated more communication - especially for the price we paid.

Summary: We loved our vacay at Bay Vista and all wished we could’ve stayed longer! The house was beautifully decorated, had everything we needed and everything worked! No issues like you usually have at rental homes. We all said we never want to stay at any other beach house but this one. For a family of five with three adult boys, we never felt crowded - I loved that we could all sit at the dining table for dinner. The view was spectacular - and the outdoor seating options were so nice. We will be back for sure! If I had three wishes - I wish there were kayaks to use, wish we could’ve used the lift and wish the bunk beds had been made for us.

Summary: We like to get away for spring break every year before we become empty nesters. Hence, we have rented several homes in the Galveston area, including in Boliver. THIS home is, by far, THE BEST and well worth it! While we can't control mother nature and it is often cold in March, this weekend was cool/warm. When the weather is not so great 90% of the time, it is important to have a home that still makes you feel like you are on vacation. THIS home was perfect! It is very well maintained, beautifully decorated, and had plenty of space to enjoy. The kitchen had almost everything a person may need; it was very well thought out. The house was stocked with a ton of games for all ages. The WIFI was great and there were plenty of USB outlets. This home smelled fresh and clean while also being a pet friendly property. The bonus was the downstairs outdoor bar with an extra fridge and plenty of seating. I only wish the weather was nice enough to enjoy it more during our stay. The Gary Greene team was very prompt in responding to any of our questions; check in/out process was very easy, thank you! We look forward to returning and enjoying another week!

Summary: This house is exactly as described. Spacious with lots of amenities. My whole family came and beautiful memories were made here. The downstairs area is very well laid out with lots of seating, downstairs fridge and bathroom a plus. The fishing area allowed for several people to fish at the same time. We never found a need to leave the house during our stay as we had everything we needed at the house. The kitchen is very well stocked with cooking and eating utensils. Everyone had such a great time and we will definitely be back.

Summary: Photos are very accurate. This is a very spacious property. We caught enough fish there for a family of 12 fish fry! Flounders were great! The place was clean and the property management was thorough and kept in touch. The pool was extremely cloudy and unfiltered, however it was closed the next day so I assume they were having some filter issues.

Summary: Property is very clean and the kitchen has everything you can possibly need. We loved the space downstairs and the views were amazing! The fishing was fantastic. We caught sand and speckled trout every night so the kids were very happy. (We brought our own coolers for bait and fish so just be prepared to bring those.)The house itself had very comfortable beds and lots of space inside. We had a wonderful time!
