Beautiful views and much more
My high school astronomy club members and two chaperones and I stayed at this place during our spring break trip to Houston to see the space center and Galveston. Regarding location and traffic, it was perfect for where we needed to get to. Being able to see the constellations from the pier and the back yard was amazing, and the sunrises were beautiful! We did have some issues with damaged beds from previous renters, but the host got that cleared up right away. Communication was excellent. I would likely rent from them again.

Very Great Stay
It was a very great stay. We had everything we needed in the home. House was very clean and nice. Great view of the ocean. Had a great time going out on the pier to fish with the family. I would definitely stay here again.

Pleasant stay, property needs some TLC
My family stayed for the Thanksgiving holiday and we enjoyed our time. The patio and fire pit are great spaces to enjoy the water views, and we even so porpoises swimming in the bay one morning! The check in and out process was flawless and we were contacted to make sure that we were settled in alright.That said, we were disappointed that the property is rather worn down since the pictures were taken and the listing is no longer fully accurate. A section of the fence in the backyard has fallen into the grass, there is an occasional floor leak in the main floor toilet, and the ground level space has a strong musty smell from flooding and that bedroom is locked shut (inconsistent with the posting details). The oven/range also has controls that are failing. None of these things were huge issues for us, but could be for other guests. The owner/management needs to address maintenance or update the posting to provide accurate information.

Good!
The location of the house was great because the access to the water to fish. But some areas on the fishing dock were dangerous because some wood panels were missing. We weren’t able to use the sofa bed in room 2 because there weren’t extra blankets, and the room had a fridge that we couldn’t use because it would not work properly. The bed sheets and blankets were too thin and cold for the winter. If there were more info given before we came we could have brought what we needed from home. The kitchen microwave and vent did not work. The light in the second floor larger room did not work. If these things are improved we would love to come back. The house was nice overall and we spent a very happy time there.

I wish there were smart tvs in every bedroom. If the basement area is counted as a bedroom, then remodeling should be finished.

Good but could use some improvements
Nice location , caught lots of fish. The down stairs unit was not in operation pull out couch no mattress, so really only 3 bedrooms, only 1 tv. No ice maker, microwave above the stove not operational, only small microwave on counter to use. Some of the appliances need updating. Close to Kemah, lots of good restaurants. Price was good, I would stay again.
