Great place for families to gather

My siblings and our families came to celebrate our dad's 80th birthday with my parents. There were 13 of us in total, and we had so much space and there was so much to do just within the house or just outside of it. Pool table, poker table, chessboard, darts, Scrabble, giant TV, swimming pool, fishing off the pier. We also cooked all of our breakfasts and dinners at the house and there were plenty of dishes and kitchenware, making it breeze to feed so many. Lots of fridge space (3 refrigerators!) and seating. We had an amazing time here and hardly left the property (because of the weather). But we did go to the Kemah Boardwalk once and it was very close! Highly recommend this property for a gathering place for multiple families.

Excellent for our family

We have been doing vacation with kids and grandkids for over 10 years now, and this was one of the best, if not the best house, for our family. The view when you walk in the door is a knockout; we enjoyed it every waking minute. The pool is fun and situated with great visibility for parents to keep an eye on pre-teen kids swimming. The dock has great access to the water (not for swimming, but kids enjoyed walking out on it, and great for fishing for one of our party). There’s a lot for kids and adults to do in and around the house, and the Kemah Boardwalk is an easy walk away. Our only concern for coming back next year is the need for more king beds to accommodate our tall guys who are used to sharing a king sized bed. Communication with the owner and the caretaker have been great. Highly recommend.

Nice place needs work

Enjoyed our stay but home needed some basic maintenance the grill did not work many lightbulbs were burnt out including oven lights and lights over the stove . The upper oven door does not close making it rather useless unless you prop it closed with a broom handle. The landscape needed some real attention . This home was well located and a nice facility but needs better upkeep.

Wonderful Getaway!

This property is positioned perfectly! It was close to lots of options for our family’s 4 day getaway! The pictures are great, but even more spacious and beautiful in person. There were plenty of towels for both shower and the pool to go around so no need to pack those. It was myself, my wife, and 8 of our children who stayed. Besides taking daily excursions, we enjoyed our time at the house with fishing, sunning, darts, billiards, making s’mores, and reading on the decks while enjoying the sound of the water and birds.I would highly recommend this as your next stay. The groundskeeper met us at the home and gave us a wonderful tour upon our arrival. When we had trouble with the TV service not working, he came out right away and got it sorted. We made some good family memories over our stay!

The total package

The Perfect 4th of July Getaway with Friends and Family!We just wrapped up the most unforgettable 4th of July weekend at this incredible waterfront VRBO , and honestly, we’re still glowing from the experience. This place was everything we hoped for—and so much more.From the moment we arrived, the ocean view took our breath away. The house sits right on the water, with a sweeping panorama that made every sunrise and sunset feel like a postcard. Whether we were lounging by the pool, grilling out on the patio, or sipping morning coffee on the deck, that view was always front and center.The layout was absolutely perfect for a big group—plenty of space for both adults and kids to spread out, relax, and enjoy themselves. Every room was spotless with laid-back charm that instantly puts you in vacation mode. The kitchen was fully stocked and perfect for prepping meals.The fishing pier was a favorite spot throughout the weekend for the men. At night, we watched fireworks light up the sky from the water’s edge—it was absolutely magical.The pool was a favorite spot for the kids as well but there was something for everyone, from fishing, .the pool, playing pool, darts, games, listening to music or just soaking in the ocean air.Our host was exceptional—warm, responsive, and clearly thoughtful about every detail. He made check-in a breeze. If you’re looking for a place to make lasting memories with the people you love, this is it. We’re already talking about making it our new annua
