It was ok

Nothing at all against the owners. The house itself was fine. The location however wasn't ideal. There are teens and 20 year olds who played very loud music each night we were there so loud that I felt like I wasat a concert. Had to call the police the last night and learned those kids dont rent or live there. They just use the pool. Again nothing the owners could control. Also the mosquitoes were insane. I've rented at beach houses before and this was just unbearable. The house was fine. But unfortunately other circumstances made it not very welcoming. Thank you for being great hosts though.

Stilt House Living

After climbing 16 stairs to get into the accommodation, everything was fine. Since it is a peninsula we could see the gulf on the left and now and then see a tugboat pushing a large barge on the right. The children’s playground and pool were utilized by the community. The area is quiet and an excellent place to rest and regroup. The beaches are full of shells, quite a few in tack. Taking the free ferry to Galveston just added another level of exploring. Bravo

Weekend Getaway

We loved everything about the house and the area that we were in. We had some fun neighbors that helped us enjoy the experience. The pictures were a little misleading though because I was under the impression that the pool was private, as well as the deck. Unless I overlooked something, it didn’t specify in the listing that this was a community pool so unfortunately, since it was so crowded the whole time we never got to swim. We definitely made the best of the experience though so everything asside from that was great. I definitelyy loved the complementary pods! My friends were soo pleased and greatful for my pick.

Quiet, small neighborhood just a short walk from the beach. Chelsea was very responsive and accommodating. If you want to spend any time outside, you must not fail to have bug spray.

Last minute Getaway

We planned a last minute vacation for one day before school started and the beach house was perfect for us with the pool right across the street. I could sit on the porch and watch them swim. Loved the house!
