About the host
Hosted by Owner/Property Manager
In 2008 Hurricane Ike destroyed our 1960s fishing camp. We built Nautical on our existing property with over 1000 sq. ft. of covered porch including a large screened porch to enjoy expansive views. Nautical's unique location offers incredible views of bay, wetlands, sunrise & gorgeous sunsets. Relax on the porch and enjoy the birds' daily migrations: Brown Pelicans, Pink Roseate Spoonbills, Grey Blue Herons, Great White, Snowy and Cattle Egrets, various Terns & the classic Laughing Sea Gulls. In the winter season elegant White Pelicans float for hours in the pier's fishing lights. A Nautical lazy day: Grab coffee & watch sunrise from porch, eat breakfast, drive the kids 5 minutes to West Beach, collect seashells & build sand castles! Rinse sand off kids in 2 Cabana Showers before throwing burgers on the grill. Enjoy an afternoon of pier fishing, crabbing, or bird watching/cycling along our quiet, mile long dead-end street. Toss bread to seagulls from Nautical's private pier in late afternoon. After dinner, night fish on the pier or relax in screened porch and enjoy the breezes and expansive skyline framing West Bay. Our two master bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms makes Nautical a great place to share with family or close friends and our coastal decorations offer a relaxing setting when you finally head inside. As a host, we enjoy sharing Nautical whether you want to fish, relax or take in Galveston's outdoor activities and theme parks.
Why they chose this property
Our lot is situated in an idyllic waterfront & natural location yet civilization is at our doorstep. (Amusements, restaurants, stores and beach are just 10 minutes away!) We love to fish from our private pier, go fishing by kakay/boat in West Bay and crab the inlets. Bring your kayaks or boat. Head to West Beach to build sand castles, go seashell hunting and ride the waves. The breezes, views, sounds of wave action, bird calls and Nautical's relaxed, coastal interior allow us to escape 'city life'. The 'kid in us' appreciates that Galveston's tourist attractions and restaurants are so nearby. Sunrise, sunset, amazing moon rise and star gazing from Nautical's porches and pier are perfect to gather and toast life on West Bay!
What makes this property unique
UNIQUE NATURAL SETTING ON SECLUDED STREET: Bay front property with private pier and fishing lights and wetlands on the opposite side of the street. Even though its location feels secluded - Galveston's historic seawall is only 6 minutes away! SPORTSMAN'S PARADISE: Enjoy fishing, crabbing, boating or watching boats cruise the bay. If you kayak, bring it because the inlets along West Bay provide great fishing and calm wave/tidal currents for paddling your water toy!! Nautical's private pier is equipped with many cleats. Do not dock boats overnight due to active tide.
INSPIRING SUNSETS & SUNRISES: Bring your camera because God's sunsets and sunrises can be spectacular! In the evening, the lights on the distant mainland, Causeway Bridge and Galveston Island nicely frame West Bay and create a beautiful skyline. From the East Porch and house, the rising moon is memorably huge and quick; Star gaze the constellations from the porches or pier because the stars don't have to compete against bright city lights.
BEST BIRD WATCHING: Enjoy the daily bird migration between the federally protected bird sanctuary islands to the North and federally protected wetlands directly South of Nautical; daily you'll see Brown Pelicans, pink Roseate Spoonbills, Grey Blue Herons, Great White, Snowy and Cattle Egrets, various Terns, other Herons & the classic Laughing Sea Gulls. From Fall through Spring, birds migrate from as far away as South America. As our mantra says, 'It doesn't get any better than this!' ....
