About the host
Hosted by JLM Rentals - Leslie
We are Jeff and Leslie, retired professionals who love to travel and enjoy live. We have four homes (located in Galveston, TX, Northern Michigan - Petoskey, Southern CA - Ventura and a condo in NYC on the upper west side) all of our homes are set up as vacation rentals. We bounce between our homes based on seasons and rental schedules. During the summer we works as aquatic and waterfront directors at over-night youth summer camp in the Poconos.
Why they chose this property
We purchased this home as a place to bring our families together and create lifelong memories. Our two children and their spouses both live in the Houston area and both have two daughters, we rented a home in the historic section of Galveston for a couple of family weekends and decided it made sense to purchase a family home on the beach for weekends and holidays holiday get-togethers.
Often we have non Houston family members join us. The name of the house MarSea~Shoals is a play of both of our last names and since "mar" is sea in Spanish and a shoal is a sand bar and also "trouble" it seemed the perfect combination.
We hope our home will bring your family and friends together to create memories.
