The home was very nice and in a perfect location. Very roomy and comfortable for my family of 10. We had never visited Galveston before and this home and location met all of our expectations and more. Everything you need is right there. the Hospitality the owner showed was amazing. We will be repeat customers.

Thank you for allowing us to make lifelong memories.

Owner's Response:

Vicki and her family are exactly the type of guests we try to cater to at Kathy's Kottage - full family with kids. Her interest before arrival allowed us to give suggestions which in turn helped make her family vacation even better. Great thing Vicki, there is so much to do in Galveston that you guys can come back and continue to explore more new fun places. Oh, and don't forget to ask about the discount that returning guests receive.

Great Location, clean properties with awesome amenities, and excellent beach.

We loved the property, proximity to the beach, and the amenities offered. However, at the end of a long day at the beach we all plopped down in front of the TV to watch a movie and....nothing. Come to find out the receiver on the dish was completely rusted off and hanging loose. So, no TV. I will admit we did not bring this to the owner’s attention during our short stay, but he was very responsive and helpful when called about logging into WiFi. Would still definitely recommend.

Perfect Family Get-Away!

Walking in the door everything looked exactly as it was pictured. Enjoying the house was a big part of our vacation; we enjoyed relaxing on the covered decks and spending time in the open living area. The house had nice views and was a short walk to the beach. Cruising in our golf cart was a fun part of enjoying the resort and pools. The Lazy River and Beach House made for fun late afternoon activities after spending time at the beach. Galveston Island will be a place we will return and we will always plan to stay at Kathy’s Kottage. Great memories!

Beautiful home, clean and inviting. Highly recommended

My family’s stay at Kathy’s Kottage for 3 days of Spring Break 2018 was wonderful. The Property is well kept, clean and inviting. Terry was quick to respond to a question I had. This home did not disappoint. It was perfect for my in-laws who traveled in from Louisiana, my 6 yo twin boys and my Mother and me. The walk through the quiet community to the beach was manageable for my mother age 93 and the views form the double back porches were lovely. The option of accessing the Beach Club facilities ( about 1 mile a way ) was an advantage! My busy kids enjoyed a few hours at the pool and the Lazy River. The home itself was spacious enough for 4 adults and 2 busy children. I really appreciated supply of bath towels, extra blankets, having a washer and dryer on site and such a tidy kitchen with sufficient pots/plates/ cups and utensils. There were even a few unbreakable plates and cups for those with little ones! We all enjoyed ourselves and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a care-free beach break.

I keep coming back!
