Great Stay
Really nice accommodation for the seven of us. We stayed prior to our cruise and it was an awesome place. The only thing I would recommend is larger soft blankets, although being in Texas you don’t usually need blankets!

Perfect house and location!
We stayed here (myself, my husband, our 9, 8 and almost 2 year old) for a weekend. It was a great location for the beach, restaurants, the pleasure pier, and Moody Gardens. The house was so lovely, had wonderful amenities and was exactly as described. The communication with our host, Ruth, was wonderful as well. We would definitely stay here again!

THE guest enjoyed the cottage. They used the living room TV. Only problem we had was cooking. The pots and pans were not big enough for what we cooked. However we managed. Thanks for the fun time.

I like that the house did have a historical feel and was big and spacious. There was some construction going on right behind the house but not really a bother to us. We will be looking to book this house again on our future stays in Galveston if available.

Cute house; VERY clean; hosts were GREAT! My only comment I wish it would have been able to have a bit more natural light coming in to the dining and kitchen. However, certainly did not take away from our fantastic trip. I would highly recommend this property!!!!!!

Roomy and family friendly
The roomy property had everything we needed for us and our daughter’s family. Tv’s in every room, great kitchen, separate dining, two big baths, and a large living area. Loved the older home made modern. The price is very reasonable. Beach is walkable. Clean, no smelly carpet and comfortable beds and couch. We will definitely look for this cottage again.

Charming home
We enjoyed our stay here at the Cottage. The pictures depict it accurately. When the home was remodeled they did good work but still left a lot of the original parts of the home, it is so charming. I loved it. Very close to the beach , a little too far to walk to with coolers and beach gear. We drove to it in like 5 minutes or less. Sits in a good area of Galveston. We were close to lots of attractions and activities.

Neat house! Very clean!
Overall, the property was great! Very cute, updated and clean! Our only issue was finding it in the dark. Our map was indicating the property was in the prior block and it was very tough to see any addresses in dark. Had to call property manager, but she was very helpful! Overall, five stars! She also allowed us a late checkout before we left on cruise!
