House in Galveston Island, TX
Reasons to book
About this house rental
home offers the perfect blend of relaxation and recreation. Enjoy the serene
canal views from our spacious top deck, ideal for fishing and entertaining.
With a private boat dock, less than a mile to the beach, and community
amenities like a pool and parks, it's perfect for families or groups. Plus,
our spacious yard is great for outdoor games. Simple and sweet - Come,
Property Manager!
The Canal House has a large driveway ideal for those traveling together in
groups to park comfortably. The front yard is expansive to allow for your
group to play any games you bring- or for your furry friends to run around!
The bottom floor can only be accessed from the front or back ground floor and
is one large room equipped with 1 queen bed and 2 twin bunk beds. The bottom
floor has a window AC unit and a few space heaters for use if need be. We try
not to freeze out the window AC unit so please be patient with it and keep the
temperature above 68degrees. There is a full bathroom on this bottom floor
with an intimate standing shower. This bathroom is connected through to the
laundry room and both have concrete flooring for any sandy toes that may go
through. We have a dehumidifier running in this room to help with Galveston's
humidity but please keep in mind that this space is often more hot/humid than
the upstairs level. The bottom floor is ideal for a kids room but is also
spacious enough if you are planning a trip with multiple families!
We provide a Tide pod for our guests but if you plan on doing multiple loads
of laundry please plan accordingly. In the laundry room we have a
complimentary pair of outdoor chairs, a beach umbrella, and a few beach toys
for you to enjoy!
The bottom level walks directly out to the private boat dock, boat lift not
available, and is ideal for those who enjoy fishing! If you plan to bring a
boat, please let us know ahead of time so we can provide a boat launch key (if
lost there is a $200 charge applied). We do not track tides or provide
fenders, ropes, cleats, etc so please bring whatever you may need for your
boat with you.
Access to the top deck and top floor is by a shallow-stepped staircase on the
outside of the home. The top deck is AMAZING! So much space for the whole
group to enjoy together and covered to avoid the elements. There is plenty of
seating for the whole group to enjoy relaxing together out of the sun after a
long day at the beach :)
Here you will find the lockbox where the guest keys are located. The living
space is an open concept area where the dining, kitchen, and living room flow
easily together. There is also a futon here for additional sleeping
arrangements. The kitchen is well equipped with LOTS of utensils and
appliances. Waffle maker, blender, crock pot, coffee machine, as well as
plenty of serving dishes. We try our best to keep this kitchen stocked but
please let us know if something needs replacement.
There is 1 queen bedroom and 1 king bedroom on the top floor connected by a
full bathroom. The bathroom upstairs is a bit more spacious and gets great
natural light through the windows. The top deck has Central AC & Heating. The
top deck HVAC system was replaced in 2024.. Our home has plenty of
character—and a few quirks that come with age. On hotter days, things can get
a little toasty, so we appreciate your good humor and patience!
A few things to note: Provided items are... all bed linens, bath towels,
starter set of shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, toilet paper, dish soap,
dishwasher pod, coffee filters, and paper towels. We do not provide... cooking
oil, pantry items such as salt & pepper, coffee grinds, and beach towels.
Bathing towels for the bottom level are located in the laundry room. Bathing
towels for the top level are located in the bathroom closet.
Both TVs can be connected to your streaming accounts. The Sea Isle community
does have a pool for residents and guests (Memorial Day to Labor Day) and a
pass can be purchased at the Sea Isle HOA office next to the pool.
