Weekend Getaway
My wife, toddler, and I stayed here this past weekend for a weekend getaway to Galveston. The house was great! Check in was very easy, the house was clean, and the layout worked out well for us! The host was kind enough to allow us an early check in to accommodate our daughter’s nap and he provided a baby gate at the top of the spiral staircase leading to the lower level - this was clutch because our daughter is very curious and likes to explore! The location of the house was great for our trip. Just 5-10 minutes from all of the restaurants we tried and 5 minutes drive to Stewart Beach and East Beach. The house is also walking distance from the beach, but it took us about 10-15 minutes. All in all a great place for our family
