Bayfront, dog-friendly home with private dock, great patio & shuffleboard

Amazing Bay

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Incredible space, light, and views of the water await at this expansive bayfront home in Galveston, scenically situated on the shores of Offatts Bayou with its own private dock. This home epitomizes indoor-outdoor living, whether you're barbecuing out back, playing with your kids in the yard, or sliding open the glass doors to let the sea breeze ripple through.

This two-story, waterfront home sits on an inlet of West Bay, just one mile north of the beach and the seawall in Galveston. Within a three-mile drive, you can be at Schlitterbahn, Moody Gardens, and the Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier, or in the heart of The Strand Historic District.

Spend much of your days outside in the beautiful backyard - dangling your feet from the dock, hosting afternoon barbecues on the gas grill, and unwinding in the shade of the oak tree with a gorgeous view of the bay.

The same view is showcased throughout the house, most notably with walls of picture windows in the living room, the formal dining room, the eat-in kitchen, and three of the bedrooms. Highlights of the open, spacious main floor include a large living room with a smart TV and desk workspace, an adjacent rec room with another TV and a shuffleboard table, and a fantastic kitchen with professional appliances (including two Viking gas ranges) and a TV of its own.

Of the bedrooms (all with smart TVs), one is a primary suite upstairs with a private balcony, a gas fireplace, and a wonderful bathroom and dressing room with a jetted tub overlooking the bay. There's a kids' room upstairs as well, and four bedrooms on the main floor - one with an en suite bathroom and two with direct access to the patio. A laundry room, central air conditioning, and complimentary WiFi are provided as well.

Great stay, just a couple critiques
Our stay was very pleasant. We all really enjoyed our experience, but we did have a few critiques. 1) we had 9 people for 3 nights and there was only one roll of paper towels provided that we could find. Sure we picked up some more but it was aggravating because it seemed like they just didn’t do the math on how many people were there. 2) the jacuzzi tub needs the jets cleaned. I ran a bath but quickly just drained it due to all of the crud floating in the tub from the jets. It was disappointing. 3) the grill/griddle/range combo was dirty and there was nothing available to clean it with so we were disappointed not to be able to use that. 4) the upstairs shower was difficult to temperature control. We were either cold or scalding. 5) while the couch was comfortable, it is not elderly friendly and we had elderly people in our group. They struggled to get up and down from the soft, deep sofa and there was only one chair for the room. We spent a lot of time shuffling chairs around so they could sit comfortably. Outside of these critiques we really enjoyed the house. We had so much room to spread out and visit and enjoy each others company. The large kitchen was great for feeding all of us and we could hang out and not have people in our way. We enjoyed being able to hang out, watch tv a bit and still have private space for everyone to decompress. Overall we greatly enjoyed our stay and we plan to return for another family trip if we can line up everyone’s schedules!

Staff Retreat
We had a great three days on our staff retreat. The kitchen and dining areas were spacious and the living room was a great place to have our meetings. I highly recommend this home for your next vacation!
