Walk to the Beach, Historic Cottage

Escape to a coastal paradise at this charming Galveston abode, within walking distance of Porretto Beach, this historic gem offers a harmonious blend of classic architecture and modern comforts. Featuring airy rooms, hardwood floors, and a serene palette, each space invites relaxation. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the turquoise-trimmed porch or unwind in the elegantly appointed living areas.

This is the perfect haven for a memorable island retreat.

The home is professionally cleaned and sanitized after each stay.

Outdoor:
There are three outdoor sitting areas for you to enjoy — two chairs on the front porch, a nice covered sofa and chair in a private space out back and a fire pit for a relaxing stay.

+Plus:
The game room under the house is one of our favorite features!

Bedrooms are outfitted with blackout blinds so there are no early morning wake ups on vacation.

The primary bedroom features a queen bed, television and air-conditioning for those hot days.

The second bedroom provides a cozy atmosphere complete with a queen bed and spacious closet.

Kitchen:
The kitchen is fully stocked with baking sheets, crock pots, ample pots and pans. Our home has all you need to make your favorite meal.
