Great little hideaway
We enjoyed our little mini vacation before going our cruise. This house was perfect for our family of 5 to hang around enjoying family time. We had enough room for all of us to sleep. The best part was even tho it’s tiny one the outside, there is plenty of space and we didn’t feel like we were stepping on one another. The next time we will definitely stay here.

Half pint
Enjoyed the stay! It was exactly what we needed - it was clean and hospitable. Neighbor dogs barking was annoying but I get it. Can’t control that. I needed to look at the room a little closer because one room had the window unit blowing right on the lower bunk bed, which for me was fine. Luckily one of the older ladies I was with, who can’t tolerate the cold, is able to handle the ladder. We worked it out. Not sure what to make of the plant growing through the window into the house. Lol. Overall, we had a good stay.

Fourth of July fun
Really enjoyed our stay. Property was clean and close to everything. Only issue was the living area a/c struggled at times to keep cool during Texas heat but everything else was great. Would definitely stay again.

The property was very clean, and had all amenities needed for our family. It was a short drive to the beach and Seawall!

Terrible location
There was a 40 ounce Old English malt liquor bottle on the curb, along with other trash in the yard. There is a sharp nail or staple sticking up from the wood flooring in the guest room that could seriously lacerate someone’s foot. And only 1 roll of toilet paper for 4 days- definitely not enough. Glad we brought some with us. Most likely (very obvious) illegal activity occurring ALL NIGHT every NIGHT across the street. The dogs next door BARKED ALL DAY AND NIGHT LONG! So no one got any sleep, and my husband was running in the Ironman on Sunday. Unfortunately all of this overshadowed the cute house and comfortable beds. Please be more transparent about the unsafe location, horrible neighbors, barking dogs, and please repair the nail in the floor before someone seriously lacerates their foot. I rarely leave reviews, but this needs to be addressed.
