Great stay in San Leon
My family and I wanted to head south to be closer to the water while our son attended space camp at the Johnson Space Center when we discovered this great place just 11 miles from our son's camp. Mike was great when we asked to extend our stay and super helpful when we had questions and asked for recommendations about where to eat in the area. Watching the sunrise each morning was a highlight of our stay. Overall I would recommend this place for a family - even our French bulldog had a great time. Definitely check this one out.

Clean, comfy and peaceful!
The home was very clean and had all the necessities that you desire when traveling (fully stocked kitchen, dish soap, laundry soap, trash bags). The beds were very comfy and the home had plenty of space. The location was really relaxing and we enjoyed watching the boating activities on the bay from the deck. We have family in the area and we won't hesitate to book this home again.

Refreshing
Our family had a great time. It was all made possible by the attention to detail by Michael and his team. We have the habit of packing everything we need, we were pleasantly surprised that everything was already provided from dishes to paper towels. A home away from home, the kids said this was their best vacation ever! Not to forget our adorable pet rabbit! She has a good time as well

Absolutely loved every minute of our stay
We picked this house because we wanted a little slice of heaven getaway with our closest friends/family to enjoy our wedding. We got married on the little beach just down from the house and everything was just beautiful. 100% would rent this home again. Absolutely beautiful views from the balcony and just a beautiful house 😳

Weekend getaway
This property was exactly like it shows on website. Clean and stocked for your stay no need to bring anything other than food and clothes. Some pics of some location, on websites may not have updated pics. and to your surprise when you get there it’s not even close. We thoroughly enjoyed the mini vac. Management was in communication with us anytime needed. Will be returning in near future.

I traveled to Texas because of a funeral. Being down in San Leon brought back so many memories of spending summers down there. The owner was very understanding about bringing my dog and the neighbors were great too. I will definitely recommend staying here with the beautiful view and many sleeping options.

Michael was excellent to work with and very accommodating. He is very personable and goes the extra mile to make sure that everything is going very smoothly. The home is actually better looking in person than in the pics and that is rare. Very nice place and would definitely stay again! Thanks Mike! Lisa H.

Beautiful well maintained property. Took our dog with us and he enjoyed running in the huge front yard. Having coffee on the balcony overlooking the water was a bonus. Everything was clean and accessible. So spacious for a family of 4. Owner was available at any time to answer questions.

The lock on the front gate was tricky especially because we arrived after dark, but Mike answered my call promptly. He said the lock was being replaced the following week with an easier use model. The house and property was very clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. We did not use the downstairs bedroom/bath/rec room. The view from the balcony was very nice. Everything in the living areas worked fine. The neighborhood was quiet, an average middle income street. We were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. We had no issues other than the mosquitos at the gate!

Great getaway for our family while in between homes. The balcony has awesome breeze and views of ships passing in the bay. Bedrooms were perfect for our son and daughter with Roku TV’s.
