10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
Adorable house tastefully decorated with coastal theme and full of character. Very cozy and conveniently located to everything. Beds were very comfortable. We ate out the entire time but kitchen seemed to be sufficiently stocked should we needed to have cooked. We did worry about street noise since house is located close to the corner but it was not an issue, especially upstairs. Would definitely rent again.

The cottage was beautiful. Decor, amenities, porch, patio were as pictured. I loved the down stairs bedroom I stayed in...wish I could have stayed longer. I am sure we will return again.

This adorable cottage close to the beach had everything we needed for a perfect stay in Galveston! It was Clean, very close to the beach, and had an adorable front porch and back deck with plenty of space to relax in the beautiful weather. The beds were so comfy, and the host was friendly. We loved it!
