The Neighborhood:
TREASURE ISLAND:
Stop at the convenience store on the way to snag some basic supplies and beverages, fill your bait bucket and/or rent a golf cart. Enjoy the Gulfside's uncrowded pedestrian beach (no cars allowed for 300 yards but golf carts welcomed) where you can setup your group's spot for the day on the beach to build sandcastles, jump in the surf, find unique shells and sand dollars, boogie board, shore & surf fish and build an evening bonfire. Or if preferred, utilize the available launch for your boat or fishing pier on the bayside. Some much to do so little time!

Getting Around:
AREA:
San Luis Pass and Treasure Island have been known all over the US for being a saltwater fishing hotspot and the most amazing sunrises & sunsets! It is 15 mins from Surfside and across the bridge from Galveston's west end and only about 25-30 mins to the heart of Galveston Island's activities. Most people come to the area to spend quality 'non-commercialized" time with family, extended family, and friends!

Nicely appointment home on the water!
Beautifully decorated home with all amenities you can think of. Kitchen was FULLY stocked with dishes, appliances, utensils, you name it! Very comfortable beds and everything was SUPER clean. The only thing I would change is some blackout curtains in back bedroom as a good amount of light comes in from neighbors outside lights and the morning sun. That’s a personal preference though as I prefer a super dark room. Wonderful stay and super relaxing property.

Beautiful waterfront stay
Since we were only able to get away for a short-time period, we wanted to be on the water and it was well worth it!

Front-row seat on the Gulf
My second stay. I love this cottage. It preserves the frame of an old-fashioned beach house with a ritualized and stylist interior. In short, the “front-row seat on the Gulf” is simply perfect.

Simply a brilliant beach cottage. Private and quiet with an amazing view of the Gulf. House itself is spatially very clever—the designer is to be congratulated. Awesome stay

Windy...but relaxing!!
We had a great relaxing 5 day stay....property as we remembered it, but they added a NEW GAS GRILL! Was veryyyy welcome, so thanks. Last 2 days the wind died down and one block from the house there were swarms of Vampire mosquitoes, so take block..but the sea breeze kept them away from the house! Same comment from our last about sooo many plates etc is that there is nowhere to put groceries?? Hmmm

Best location and GREAT home!
This location was perfect. There is nothing like listening to the waves crash as you drift off to sleep and hearing them again when you wake up in the morning! Our group had 4 adults, two kids and our dog. This home was a dream spot for us. We have stayed in a lot of rentals over the years, in Texas and elsewhere. We like to cook at home when we are at the beach so we never have to lose our beach vibes. This is by far the most well-stocked kitchen we’ve ever had. Thank you for a wonderful family trip!
