Amazing Cottage!!
I normally won’t write out a whole paragraph on a review, but this house deserves it! I stayed here with my husband and 3 year old and we loved it! There was so many small details that the owners thought of that were vey unexpected but appreciated. They offered children books, toys for both girls and boys, beach towels, children cups/plates/utensils, my personal favorite and thoughtful for women was the makeup remover rags. Honestly this has been the best vacation home we have stayed in. We cannot wait to come back!! Thank you Lindsay, the hospitality and thought you have put into this home is definitely appreciated!!!

So enjoyed our 52nd years of marriage in our cottage you provided. Maybe because we are old, we didn’t understand how to find the cottage, we wasn’t given an address. The manager was so sweet to help us and took good care of us! We will always return to Galveston!

Super Cute and Thoughtful Owners
This place was so super cute and cozy! We stayed there with our 3 & 4 year old granddaughters. There were toys for kids their age already in the house along with everything you would need for the beach…even a cooler to use! Also washer and dryer - detergent included! Nice and quiet. Plenty of water pressure and hot water for showers. And an outside shower! We will be back, for sure!

Breakfast is an easy 1 block away, so, we walked. Very light traffic and no bad actors. The full time neighbors were very nice and Lindsey should be very happy with them. Lindsey is very easy to contact and more than accommodating. The house is very clean and kitchen is appointed well.
