Overall great experience

This place was smaller than I thought. But it fit us well. We loved fishing off the deck and easy access to the beach. Property management were very friendly. I will book directly with them next time. Cons for this place. No washer or dryer. Downstairs room was very hot. Had to purchase my own portable ac. It also smelled very moldy so had to get air freshener as well. Also if you use the water hose make sure to do so in grass as the concrete patio holds water. Overall we had an amazing time here and will definitely be back but in another house with more accommodations to make our stay easier.

Beautiful Location

Chose this location because it’s perfect for swimming and fishing and close to the beach. Check in was easy. Neighbors are great. The home needs updating. It did smell like pesticides and we opened the windows to air out. Especially downstairs. We took paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags. You’ll need them. My biggest issue, we checked out early and left the keys in the dropbox. I waited until the office was open and called to let them know that the garbage disposal was not working and when my son-in-law put his hand in there to see why it was stuck, he pulled a piece of glass. Later I received a call telling me that there was a lot of glass in the garbage disposal and asked me what I broke. I didn’t break anything. I was the one that reported it. I was accused of lying. Was told that he found it hard to believe that in 4 days, I didn’t use the sink. I am offended. We took paper plates, plastic cups and cutlery and we drank from either plastic or aluminum cans.We ate smoked brisket that we took, we grilled hamburgers and did not need the garbage disposal until the last day when we made spaghetti. Then he said that I should have reported to which I told him that I didn’t call the emergency number because it wasn’t an emergency and it was a holiday. It was back and forth and at the end he said he would have to talk to the “big boss” and let me know if I had to pay. I gave him permission to go to the house and go through my trash if he didn’t believe me. Ruined it.

Great Location but won’t be back.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is in a great location. However it needs several updates and the bedroom on the ground floor isn’t usable space. Definitely mold there. The house was musty overall and we had to air it out for several hours. It rained and there was standing water downstairs which I am sure is the cause of the mold and musty smell. Finally there was no washer or dryer so we spent part of our time doing laundry at a laundry mat. This could be a great rental but lots of things need to be updated and fixed. Such a shame because the views are excellent not only in the front but the back as well.

Amazing views

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have been staying here during the Lone Star Rally for the last 4 years. I absolutely love this property. Watching the sun rise on the water from the front patio, and then getting to see the sun set on the water from the back deck is simply amazing. I see that they have made some changes to the downstairs bedroom that really surprised me and it looks really good. The neighbors are very friendly also. Looking to make year number 5!!

Nice vacations

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at this property. The house is on the water, and we rented two kayaks for our family from this place: /It was nice to go for a walk in a kayak down to the waters of the State ark, where one can see many birds.There are three rooms, which is nice for a large family. One of the rooms is in the basement.One thing that could be better is if the kitchen cabinets' doors were not so sticky... These cabinet doors require a thorough cleaning, or even replacement. Otherwise, the house is well kept and nice.

Our Stay in Gavelston was awesome and the people at wolverton Resort rentals were awesome to deal with... Everything thing was as it was advertised with no hiccups or suprises... The sunswept bay property was very clean and ready when we arrived, and is a beautiful property... Great access to fishing and the beach... Will be headed back hopefully in October...

Nothing like the photos, no toilet paper, trash bags, soaps, broom and the amenities listed, false

this property is not like the pictures listed. I arrived to find bo toilet tissue, trash bags, no broom, no dish soap, patio furniture cushions piled on dining table. Grill was full of old wet charcoal, unusable, the pool is NOT available this time of year, and its listed as an amenity. The air conditioner was programmed where we could not change the temperature and it stayed 80 or warmer at all times especially at night we sweated miserably. The house next door was being painted and remodeled and the worker was there the first night until after 1 am. When we left Sunday morning I discovered paint overspray on my Jeep. The management company was texting me at 10 am to see why I was still there because the housekeepers were already there. For two nights I paid almost $1,000 and I feel ROBBED, almost to the point of contacting an attorney, I have pics of all issues. NEVER AGAIN

Beautiful location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is perfect, on the canal with the beach just right down the road. Way less people than galveston so that was nice. The house is very nice, could use some updates but overall a very nice place to stay. Only concern we had was the ladder for the canal came off with my husband on it. Luckily we were able to screw it back on so not a big deal but something that could be replaced so no one else has this happen.
