Beautiful and well maintained Cottage!

What a pleasure it was to experience a stay at the Cottage. The owner is so very attentive and helpful, we enjoyed every minute of our trip. The beds were extremely comfortable, every room was well appointed, great beach gear downstairs. We enjoyed many homemade meals in the kitchen from local fish markets, our kids loved having their own retreat downstairs. We are looking forward to coming back so we can enjoy the awesome backyard with a fire pit. Thank you, Sondra, our stay was perfect!

Amazing Place To Stay

This cottage is amazing. From the history to the charm this place has it all. The owners are great and will help you in any way. Mrs. Sondra checked on us daily to see if we needed anything. My girlfriend has a hard time sleeping without a fan so Mrs. Sondra had one waiting for us upon arrival. If anyone needs a great place to stay while visiting Galveston this is the place. Thanks for all y’all did for us. Till next time.

Beautiful house

We loved staying here for our visit to Galveston. The property was nicely updated but still had that Victorian charm I was looking for. Sondra did a wonderful job of making the home welcoming and luxurious at the same time. My teenage daughter said she felt like a princess while staying there. I loved the furniture and the linens. Sondra even had some beach supplies and toys available for us to borrow and to keep the kids entertained. Communication with Sondra was easy since she was friendly and close by, and she anticipated all our needs. I would absolutely stay here again!

Great Location, Amazing House

Close to Beach, in the Historic Homes area in Galveston. The house itself is nestled in a full neighborhood of Victorian homes that all look to have been updated & maintained beautifully. The interior of the house is amazing. You just don’t see these types of houses these days - so it was wonderful to stay in. The was so much space and the basement being re-done essentially doubles the footprint. Great for families down for a weekend or a week to enjoy the island. And Sondra is a gracious host. Will definitely be back again..

Great Location and just an Incredible House!

We made a quick trip to Galveston for my nephew's wedding and chose this house because of its location to the cruise terminals. I cannot say enough about how awesome this house was. We fell in love with this house as soon as we walked in. The house has this historical charm to it that you just do not see anymore. The owners have done an incredible job bringing this house back to its glory days with not only the architectural details but also the furnishings. The owners were so friendly and helpful with any questions or needs we had. My only regret is that we were so busy with the wedding we did not get to enjoy the house as much as I would have liked. We will definitely be back (hopefully during the next historical homes tour) and have already told others about this house. We highly recommend this place for your next visit. Oh, and this house is within walking distance to just about everything... beach, shopping, great places to eat... everything!

Beautiful Historic Home

The home is breathtaking and filled with beautiful antique furniture. I think I spent the first hour just looking at every detail. The original owner was also from Louisiana so I thought that was very unique. The location of the home was perfect, putting us close to all attractions including Schlitterbahn. I don’t know that I would bring young toddlers because of the antiques but that is my opinion. I was a little nervous with my two boys hoping they wouldn’t break anything. The house is so spacious and the patio was nice for having an evening drink. Be sure to check the “extra guest charge”, as I never received an explanation to why I was charged but maybe that was a VRBO issue. The house is stunning! You should definitely consider this property for your vacation to Galveston ❤️ -Fondly, Lady Louisiana
