House was perfect for our family get together. Plenty of room and the layout fit us well. However, lack of maintenance caused some issues. Water leaks under the kitchen sink and in one of the bathrooms required us to call for repairs while we were there. House was very clean when we arrived but trash cans downstairs were over flowing and birds has scattered food everywhere. We cleaned it up, and after we called, maintenance came and picked up the trash. There was very few kitchen utensils (pots, pans, dishes, etc..) and nothing in the cabinets as far as condiments. We were told their policy is to remove everything between renters (always before they were left for the next renter to use and add to). If we had known it would not have been an issue. Maybe it should be noted on their booking website. Luckily what we didn’t bring with us we were able to obtain locally. Overall, we were very happy with the house and will rent it again but will bring everything we need with us to cook. By the way, maintenance responded quickly and that was much appreciated.

Pictures are very misleading. We had fun though. Plenty of beds and they were comfortable. Location just wasn't much to be excited about.

We spent three days at this home near Galveston for a family reunion. We had a full house and enjoyed the beach and pool. We were not happy about the condition of the home when we arrived. Immediately we could tell it was not clean. The floors were dirty, there was trash and crumbs including chip bags, sunglasses, etc under the couches and beds. The toilet did not work properly when we arrived- we had to fix it ourselves. There was dust everywhere, crumbs in kitchen drawers, mold on ceiling and in showers. The pillows did not have pillow covers under the cases and some were filthy- brown and one even had blood spots. There were no usable extra pillows- some were thrown on the floors in the dirty closets with no covers. The biggest problem was the AC on one level did not work. The air vents and filters were disgustingly dirty- we took the filter off so we could get basic circulation. We called about it and the manager came by but wasn't able to fix it. It was quite hot. We had to request more towels- there weren't even close to enough for our group. We made multiple calls and sent emails and they said they would try to refund us some money for all the problems and never did. I would not recommend this home. I understand the people at vacasa are busy but it was honestly unacceptable the level of poor communication.

Fairly nice house but the beds are very uncomfortable and it needs maintenance. We all had to buy mattress toppers to be able to sleep, it did appear as though some of the twin mattresses were new. The sinks in all 4 bathrooms drained VERY SLOWLY, one of the downstairs toilets was broken and would not flush, we had to rig it with a lanyard and the shower in the downstairs master smelled like sewage. The kitchen is very disorganized and the cabinets were not very clean. The dryer takes forever to dry clothes.

Our family stayed for a total of two nights. We chose this house because of the number of beds considering we have a pretty big family. The location is about 30 minutes away from central galveston which has all the restaurants and sights. It did seem pretty far away however we didn't mind the drive since we were there for the beach. The neighborhood the house is located in has beach access which was a 5 minute walk and even shorter if you rent a golf cart. With that being said the upstairs part of the house was not clean. There was toothpaste residue all over the bathroom sink and backsplash on the mirror. One of my family members ended up finding an airpod in between the bedsheets which seemed like they did not change. I had no communication with the owner except for one time during the DAY. He called saying how the neighbors complain about noise, and sometimes call the cops and people have to leave the house. Now mind you, it was afternoon during daylight. Most of my family was inside the house and we had a tiny speaker playing music outside. The house rules DO NOT say anything about noise during daylight. The neighborhood seemed dead and no one was friendly so if your family is friendly and likes to have a good time like mine get a different house. A few of the bunk beds were uncomfortable and overall the house seems like it needs fixing. There is so much screeching it makes you feel unsafe. The pretty picture of the pool you first see is the pool that is available HOWEVER you have to drive to it because its on the other side of the highway. The pool and the beach we enjoyed overall, not too many people around and it seemed private.
