About this house rental
Originally built in 1924, this charming Craftsman Style Cottage is situated on a secluded dead-end street across from one of Galveston's majestic private estates. There are 2 bedrooms and one full bathroom. The house was renovated in 2012 and central AC and heat was installed. Each bedroom has a king bed and lots of closet space. The bathroom has a toilet, sink, and tub/shower combo. The bathroom has an exhaust fan with a heater as well.
The house has an open floor plan between the kitchen, dining room, and living room. The kitchen has a gas stove and oven with a griddle and a vented microwave above. There is a large butcher block island with bar seating for you and your guests. The butcher block was sourced from a local meat store who served islanders for decades. The refrigerator is a large French door style model, with the refrigerator on one side and the freezer on the other and makes plenty of ice! The kitchen is fully stocked with cups, plates, flatware, stemware, cooking utensils, pots and pans, bowls, etc. It also has a blender, toaster, and coffee maker.
The living room area has a queen sized pullout couch and two chairs. The 55" flat screen TV has Roku, cable TV, and a DVD player. High speed internet and wifi is provided. The dining area has a large table that can seat four people comfortably. There is a full size front-load washer and gas dryer in the laundry room.
The front yard has a picket fence and is landscaped with roses, seasonal flowers and bougainvillea. There is a large shaded front porch with a teak bench for enjoying the cool breeze off the Gulf of Mexico.
The back yard is fenced and landscaped as well. There is a red brick patio with a picnic table, fire pit, and charcoal grill for cookouts. There is an outdoor shower with hot and cold water and a foot wash for rinsing off the sand from you or your pets after a day at the beach.
The house is centrally located and minutes from the beach, seawall, Pleasure Pier, the Strand, Moody Gardens, and Schlitterbahn water park. There are several great restaurants close by, as well and grocery and outdoor gear stores.
Given the property’s location and amenities, it is perfect for a couple’s retreat, a weekend getaway with friends, family vacation, or long-term rental for snowbirds escaping the cold winters.
We look forward to seeing you!

Excellent property for any stay in Galveston. The house has plenty of amenities and in great condition. I will definitely consider this property again. The owner was very responsive to our questions as well. Overall, we had a great experience here.

This property exemplifies why people like us use VRBO. The description, cleanliness, ease of check in and communication with the host set the gold standard. Everything about this property exceeded my expectations. My only complaint is that I only get to Galveston once a year to stay at this beautiful home away from home. I strongly recommend this property as a 5 star stay in Galveston!
