Great Beach House!

We love this beach house. We’ve stayed here 2years in a row and absolutely love it!! Super easy to get to the beach. Great downstairs shower for all the kids to wash off. Plenty of beds. The grandkids have a great time. The whole family had a blast! Again!! Looking forward to next year!

Nice Beach Getaway

Overall this was a great beach house for our families. Walking distance to the beach made it a great location, though it’s on a busy road which we didn’t love. There are a few areas that need attention (kitchen sink handle was broken), but overall it was a great little home. One suggestion we had was to make extra sets of sheets available for all of the beds. We had a sick kiddo one night and we couldn’t find extra sheets for the bed.

Awesome Place to stay

This house was amazing. Perfect distance from the beach. Going to sleep and waking up to the sound of the ocean was amazing. The house was very clean and had the things we need for cooking. My husband really liked the grill. We also enjoyed the games they had. My kids enjoyed playing grounded for life. Communicating with the owner was also very easy. She responded quickly to my messages. I definitely look forward to booking this house.

Family vacay

The location of this house is amazing! It was so nice getting to the beach and back so easily on the gold cart we brought. Keep in mind this house's driveway is off the main highway so backing up our small trailer was tricky but its a good size driveway. We had a couple of issues, but the owner was very responsive and sounds like they are going to be making some necessary updates that this beautiful beachfront house deserves! We loved the room layout. Master bedroom upstairs is HUGE! Would have loved a covered area on the main level porch. The Sea Isle subdivision is our favorite Galveston destination! Its absolutely worth the 25 min drive to town if need be.

Great BUT....

This is a great house, great location. However, the sleeping part is a little wonky. The bunk beds are nothing but thin "mattresses" - the rods go into your back - there is no sleeping on them so be warned. It was incredibly uncomfortable. I'd book again but I would bring a mattress pad or just not plan to use the bunks. Also, the pillows are plain awful - bring your own. Great stay otherwise - just do not plan on good sleep unless you make some adjustments.

Wonderful Family Getaway

We had a wonderful time at this property. The house is clean, updated and well decorated - laid out well with an open kitchen looking out at the living room and has high ceilings. We had 7 adults and three small children. I've stayed at many rentals that say family friendly, but this place had porta cribs and a high chair stowed away in the huge master walk in closet if needed. We had a two year old so the high chair was really nice to have for meals. Both back balconies were so nice to sit on in the evening to listen to the waves coming in and to feel the cool breeze coming off of the ocean. The location was great. We only went into the city of Galveston once during our stay so the long drive in was not an issue for us. The beach was so close - closer than I anticipated. Erin always responded quickly to the few questions we had. I will stay there again in a heartbeat if the opportunity arises.

House is perfect

House was great, clean, easy communication, has everything needed. Beach was good and neighbors are friendly. Only thing we didn’t like is the distance to town, but if you plan on staying at the house and just being on the beach this house is perfect!! Very relaxing, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. It is a drive to town but still a wonderful property!

Great Beach House!

Listing was very accurate, and we loved all the "extras" like toys for our toddler and games in the living room. Check in and check out process was very easy, no weird requirements. This neighborhood is pretty far away from the main attraction area, a plus if you plan on staying put but the drive (though beautiful) got tedious after a day or two. We absolutely loved the house though and had a wonderful time!

We loved our stay at Erin’s beach house. It is the perfect location. It far enough away from the crowds, and traffic, but close enough to drive into town if needed. Erin was very accommodating, and prompt at answering any messages, and concerns that we had. We hope to return again.

Perfect Beach House

We had an amazing time at the house! Love the open living room/dining/kitchen layout, perfect for family to gather around. The house was clean and homey, deck is super spacious, and the view from upstairs’ balcony is just so serene! There were plenty of games and toys to keep kids entertain when they’re not at the beach. Erin is also very responsive to messages. Would def recommend this house!
