There’s also a barbeque area, screened-in patio, and multiple outdoor spaces for relaxing in the fresh bay breezes. Rent it and relax— you’ve found your home-away-from-home on the Texas Gulf Coast. ● WINTER TEXAN RATE: Escape to the Texas Gulf Coast this winter!

The first bedroom is down the hallway and is a secondary master suite— complete with a king-size bed and a private, ensuite bathroom. Two more bedrooms are on the main level, one bunk room that is always a big hit with the kids, and another room with a queen bed and full over full bunk bed. A full bathroom with a tub/shower combo can be accessed from the hallway. The main master suite occupies the entire third level and is ultra-private.

The giant master bathroom has two walk-in closets, a double vanity, a separate tub, and a step-in shower. Climb up the stairs to the fourth-floor lookout for a birds-eye view of the coast. The extraordinary outdoor spaces are sure to be a hit with everyone in your group. You can choose to relax in the screened-in patio on the main level with a glass of wine and a great book. Or, head out into the open air and work on your tan. Host a family dinner outside at twilight while a pink and purple sunset lights up the skies above you. Make your way down to the ground level and enjoy the Cowboy soaking pool, or head to the boat dock to do some fishing. When your crew wants to spend a day at the beach, the access point for Terramar beach is about a 2-minute drive away. The mouthwatering restaurants of the West End Marina are also just a short hop from your front door. And the hustle-bustle of the Galveston Strand and the thrilling Pleasure Pier are a short drive away.

Very spacious house. A little outdated but was very clean and comfortable. Pretty good fishing too. Overall, a great value for bayfront house. Would definitely stay here again.

You want to stay here I promise! Positive: The house is absolutely gorgeous. The bayfront out of every back window was simply amazing. There was enough room for my entire family and then some I could sit in that cowboy pool and look out at the bay every day for the rest of my life. This place is simply astonishing beautifully decorated and very clean. The kitchen came with just about everything you would need even a waffle iron and a crockpot. They supplied brand new bath towels for all four bathrooms soap, shampoo conditioner everything you would need. It was a touchless entry. We didn’t have to talk to anybody and after a long drive we got there super early. We were just able to grab the key out of the box and go in the house which was very convenient. This will be the only place I stay in Galveston from now on. Negative: Everything was great. We had an issue with the past tenants taking off with the key for the big pool, but the host worked diligently and got me a key before the end of my vacation. They simply rock.
