Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time! Loved the layout of the house and the beds were comfy. The beach was a very close walk and not crowded at all. The kitchen was very well stocked with just about everything we needed. The couch could use an upgrade. There was not a regular washer and dryer. Only a very small washer/dryer combo unit, so I was not able to wash towels. Next time we will pay the extra fee for linens. The yard needed to be mowed. The outdoor shower was just a hose in the shower, but it worked fine for a quick rinse. The location was great! We were far enough from the crowds, and just a quick drive to local restaurants and gas stations. Overall, we had a great time and would stay here again.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful home right on the beach and very quiet location. We did have to buy soaps, a blow dryer, dishwasher tablets, sugar etc. About an hour drive to Galveston unless you get caught in weekend ferry traffic which took hours. We did enjoy the Anahouc Wildlife park nearby and plenty of seashells!

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The inside of the house was clean, nicely decorated and very beachy. Our 8 people were very comfortable. There were many many light bulbs burned out but we made it work. The deck on the outside was spacious although we wished it had a table to sit at. The deck was in poor repair and had lots of sharp and rough spots from peeling paint. The beach was very close and easy to get down to.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The interior of the beach house was nice. However the exterior was not as advertised. The photos show a nice porch and downstairs area that is painted grey and white. When we got their the porch and downstairs was half way painted this awful red/brown color and it obviously had been done some time ago bc it was peeling off. Also felt weird having to pay for linens and then still having to make all of the beds ourself. Going on vacation felt more like being a housemaid instead.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The beach house was absolutely wonderful and accommodating for our family and our pup Phoebe! The home was beautiful, the view was spectacular, and the close access to the beach made everything so much easier to and from the beach. The local food places were all about 10-15 minute drive and the food was all so amazing! Perfect spot for your family to enjoy a beachfront week!
