THE place to stay at the bay.

This is the best place to stay when visiting the bay side of Galveston's west end. The owners are fantastic to work with and always replied to phone calls and emails withing a timely matter. The attention to detail was awesome. We have been renting on the west end of the island for 16 years. We have never rented from an owner who took such pride in making sure their guest were taken care of. There was not one detail overlooked. The house is way bigger than the photos depict and was super clean. The owners checked on us the night of our arrival to make sure we made it ok and that the house was as expected. She also had a gift basket waiting for us at the door with all of the families favorite snacks, how she knew is beyond me. There was also a goody bag in the master bath with essentials one might have forgotten. There was more than enough bedding and beds for more than the 6 of us. The upstairs master bedroom, bath and deck were private and so relaxing.The kids had more than enough to do as there were plenty of bikes,kayakes,peddle boat, life jackets, toys, puzzles, books, games, wii games and fishing supplies to keep everyone happy. The beds were comfy. plenty of linens. The kitchen was well stocked, down to the coffee and spices. The wine chiller and the extra ice machine was a major plus.The decks were awesome for watching the sunset and the fish that swam over the underwater lights at night. They all had comfy furniture. We went to the beach and crabbed and fished in marsh along the main road. Caught lots of fish off of the deck both day and night and also took the kayakes out to the bay and fished. The beach is a short drive away and you can easily leave the ez up there and go whenever you like. We had no problems going back and forth. We will definately be back as this house is the best, and we would most definately recommend this house to anyone.
