Beautiful unique home.
The parking was tricky and our code to the door didn’t work. However the owner was very quick to reply and made sure we got in ok. Excellent communication! Previous guests went a little rough on their property unfortunately (some minor fixes needed). But overall everyone had a great time.

Easy Checkin and Ideal Location Pre-Cruise
This house was the perfect location for us the night before our Carnival Cruise. We ended up renting a car and it took all of 6 minutes for my dad to drop each group of folks off at the terminal. We even said we wished we booked it for the day we came back. It was super close to a downtown area with food and live music. We didn't get to go to the pier area while in town but would definitely drive down their if we're ever in Galveston again. Thank you all again for a wonderful stay!
