This is where you need to go to feel the cozy warmth that a real beach house has to offer.
There are three wonderful outdoor entertaining areas and neighborhood features.

FISHING AMENITIES
Our rental property is located directly on the canal in Isla del Sol. The canal is circular and communicates with the large bay allowing tidal water, fish and bait movement. Fishing and crabbing from our dock is very good: All species of fish that are caught in the Galveston West Bay can be found in the canal.
You will enjoy the fishing amenities provided. There is a fish-cleaning table with running water on the dock as well as a 55-gallon perforated drum that can be used as a live bait receptacle that lowers into the water. There are underwater green lights that attract fish and bait at night. The dock is designed to allow your boat to be tied up alongside. A private boat launch is only 100 feet away with parking space for trailers and vehicles. There is good crabbing off the dock. Two kayaks are provided.
Located in the Isla del Sol addition, there is access to a private fishing pier that extends into the West Bay and an adjacent estuary that offers fishing and crabbing.
While fishing results are never guaranteed, this location has proven very productive year-round. Fall fishing is exceptional for speckled trout, red fish and flounder.
Galveston Island has so much to offer. Enjoy spending time at the historic Strand District for shopping, great restaurants, and more. Moody Gardens and Schlitterbahn Waterpark are a must as well. Enjoy wonderful dining at the local hot spots including Rudy and Paco's, Katies, The Fisherman's Wharf, and so many more. You will enjoy making magical memories in this wonderful location. We look forward to having you as our guest.

This house has everything that you would expect, lots of rooms, a place for the kids/teenagers to hangout. We enjoyed the bay for crabbing and fishing. Would definitely return.

Our family has found the best accommodations for our four-generations to spend a wonderful vacation at Galveston! We cannot say enough good things about this spacious beach home on a canal that opens to Galveston Bay! And we are so grateful for Kathy, our host, who made certain that we would enjoy ourselves in this beautiful home. This beach home was the perfect setting for nine adults and one 18 month-old toddler, and one great-granddog, too! We fished right off the dock at ground level, cooked some family favorite seafood meals, and relaxed on the huge decks and in comfy king bedrooms! Our first night was amazing, with the beautiful stars, and we even saw a huge shooting star go across the sky! And the fish swimming all around the green fish light off the deck entertained us all. Everything about our stay was perfect -- the kitchen was so well-stocked with everything we could need to cook, there was seating enough everywhere in and out; we loved looking at all the collectible sea shells and custom wall art that were showcased in all the rooms; the beds were super comfy, too; and the entire home was immaculate. Kathy has even labeled all the light switches, and provided a great welcome binder that answered all our questions! She helped us getting the green fishing light turned on our first night there, and was always available for us. This beach home was a real blessing for us, and we felt your home was well-loved and full of memories. We were able to relax and make some wonderful memories too. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. We are looking forward to coming back to A Reel Good Spot for another family vacation soon!
