Quiet location for a getaway from the business of the city

Overall our stay was good. In hind sight with 2 kids I wish I had stayed closer to town as they didn’t want as much downtime as I expected so we wound up driving into town daily. This house is in a great more quiet location for those wanting that but it did take 20 minutes minimum to get to anything in town. The downstairs bedroom we found unuseable. It smelled horribly of what we guessed was dogs or cat. I have dogs at home but could not tolerate the smell so my oldest kid who was going to sleep there chose to sleep on the couch for the 5 nights. We successfully enjoyed fishing off the dock and loved being right on the water. The bait shop nearby was great since the owner specifically notes not to use either fridge or freezer to store bait.The trash had not gone out from the previous stay and never got picked up while we were there so it became very smelly in the driveway near the trash cans as the week went on. I didn’t see anything posted or in the check in or check out instructions regarding putting out the trash so I’m not sure who is responsible for that but likely fell through somewhere. We could not get the outdoor soundbar to work with the tv as well. Overall nice small house for a quiet vacation. I’d recommend not counting on the 3rd bedroom though.

West End Paradise !

Most West Wend Galveston homes are set on pilings. Once you’re used to the stairs, the residence is a dream ! Fishing off the dock or the Sea Isle’s private pier is great ! Much to see and do, 20 minute drive to Walmart and other shopping and dining options. All household necessities were on hand and plentiful. Owner was very responsive to any neds.

Fish, Fish, Fish

We really enjoyed staying at this canal house. We fished almost every day. We caught piggy perch, croaker, redfish, speckled trout, hardhead and a few crabs. We saw several alligator gars (one was about seven feet long). Beach and the fishing pier are within a few minutes from the house. House was very clean. Kitchen was amply stocked. Beds are comfortable. We enjoyed the outside TV. Looking forward to the staying here again.

Fun & Fishing

The location and house were great! Our host was very accommodating and prompt to respond. We loved the location, away from the traffic of Galveston but still close enough to travel back and forth. Didn’t catch a lot of fish this trip, but sure had fun trying. The property and house was just as described. Would we recommend? Yes! Would we stay there again? Yes!

we had a good time just wish it would not have rained every day. Dock and Boat slip were nice and easy we will be back for sure hopefully with better weather. House was clean and ready for us the wifi didn't work the whole time we were there but I figured it was due to the storm a few weeks before but overall not a bad place to stay

About the host

Hosted by Lee Ludwick

Host profile image
I have enjoyed four homes in Sea Isle over the last thirty years and have many fond memories raising children, visiting with family and making friends here. I enjoy the relaxation of this subdivision's atmosphere and stay practically every weekend to relax and recharge.

Why they chose this property

Sea Isle by far is the best subdivision on the island due to its community amenities and spirit that fills the air when you visit. I purchased this home because of its open vaulted ceilings and canal front facing porch for enjoying coffee in the morning and watching the sunrise and sunsets. The downstairs is open to the prevailing southeast wind and usually has a nice breeze when other locations do not, making it the place we hang out the most. The downstairs sitting area with TV is where we spend most of our time eating dinner and enjoying company. We also enjoy the boat house sun deck for having dinners and sunbathing.

The home also has separate jet ski lifts and boat lifts making it available for you to bring all of your water sports toys and enjoy the bay for all it has to offer.

What makes this property unique

This home is located on the second canal from the bay and faces the southwest. You can enjoy sunrises and sunsets from the upper boat house deck. Any place you wish to visit is only a few blocks away due to its central location. You can't beat the downstairs entertainment area that is open to the back yard so your pets can also enjoy it with you. The outdoor propane fire pit is a wonderfully relaxing feature anytime of the year; especially spring, fall and winter.
