About this property
Ocean Views & Steps to Car-Free Beach
The Skipper is a bright yellow Gulf Coast beach home on stilts, offering stunning ocean views and direct access to a quiet, car-free beach. This second-row retreat comfortably sleeps 6 guests, featuring a fully equipped kitchen, spacious deck, and outdoor shower. Enjoy a peaceful escape just 20 mins from Galveston's attractions, with a grocery store next door. Perfect for families, couples or small groups seeking a relaxing beach getaway.
Inside, the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area keeps your group connected, all while offering stunning ocean views. This comfortable home sleeps up to 6 guests across two bedrooms with three queen beds. Whether you're cooking a meal, watching a movie, or playing a game, you'll find everything you need for a relaxing coastal getaway.
Key Features: • Spacious deck to watch and listen to the sea. • Easy Beach access across the street. • Beach extras: body boards, beach toys, beach chairs. • A fully equipped kitchen, ready for entertaining. • A BBQ grill for easy outdoor meals. • Cozy living area with a 55" Roku Smart TV, DVD player, board games, and a small library. • Family Extras: Board Games, Puzzles, DVDs, Books, Toys. • An outdoor shower with hot and cold water for rinsing off after a day in the sand. • Convenient in-unit washer and dryer.
• Best for up to 5 adults (plus children). We've hosted many happy parties of six adults, but with one bathroom and our seating layout, up to five adults is the sweet spot. • Single-story home and lower to the ground than most beach houses. The outdoor stairway is open-air but partially covered by the roof overhang. • Limited infant gear — the home is not set up for babies. The house guide has local equipment rental info. • Checkout chores — guests are asked to handle a few light tasks to help us turnover quickly and keep costs down. You can opt out for a small fee we send to our cleaners. • Wi-Fi is provided via cable internet. We can't guarantee third-party signal quality, though it is generally reliable.
