A Reel Good Spot! Spacious 5 bdrm/ king beds/bunk

Welcome to your beautiful home away from home set in the upscale neighborhood of Isla Del Sol! You will absolutely love the laid-back luxury of this beautiful beach community and this recently updated amazing beach house. This is where you need to go to feel the cozy warmth that a real beach house has to offer.

There are three wonderful outdoor entertaining areas and neighborhood features.

The main deck has a lovely covered seating area that offers serene canal views where you can enjoy your morning coffee or a glass of wine as the sun goes down. The deck extends over the boathouse where the views of the canal are spectacular.

The lower deck has 6 Polywood Adirondack chairs from where you can cast a line, throw burgers on the provided charcoal grill and enjoy catching up with friends.

There is also an upstairs balcony off of the main bedroom with seating for two. The privacy is perfect for winding down in the evening and this deck is accessible from the master bedroom and the upstairs queen bedroom.

The house is a short walk to the nearby estuary and fishing dock where there are spectacular views of the bay, and you may even catch that evening's meal. The nearby boat ramp is accessible only to Isla Del Sol residents and its guests. The key is provided with the rental. We have one kayak available for cruising the canals. We also have an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a great day at the beach.

The beautiful neighborhood beach is vehicle accessible with a marked parking area for your car. It does not allow vehicles to drive down the beachfront. This makes it easy for you to bring your beach items in the vehicle, unload, and set up for a great day at the beach!

FISHING AMENITIES

Our rental property is located directly on the canal in Isla del Sol. The canal is circular and communicates with the large bay allowing tidal water, fish and bait movement. Fishing and crabbing from our dock is very good: All species of fish that are caught in the Galveston West Bay can be found in the canal.

You will enjoy the fishing amenities provided. There is a fish-cleaning table with running water on the dock as well as a 55-gallon perforated drum that can be used as a live bait receptacle that lowers into the water. There are underwater green lights that attract fish and bait at night. The dock is designed to allow your boat to be tied up alongside. A private boat launch is only 100 feet away with parking space for trailers and vehicles. There is good crabbing off the dock. Two kayaks are provided.

Located in the Isla del Sol addition, there is access to a private fishing pier that extends into the West Bay and an adjacent estuary that offers fishing and crabbing.

While fishing results are never guaranteed, this location has proven very productive year-round. Fall fishing is exceptional for speckled trout, red fish and flounder.

Galveston Island has so much to offer. Enjoy spending time at the historic Strand District for shopping, great restaurants, and more. Moody Gardens and Schlitterbahn Waterpark are a must as well. Enjoy wonderful dining at the local hot spots including Rudy and Paco's, Katies, The Fisherman's Wharf, and so many more. You will enjoy making magical memories in this wonderful location.

Everyone in the family enjoyed our stay and said it was the best house yet.

Our entire stay was great! The whole family loved the plentiful beds and bath accommodations. The kids loved being able to get in the canal. This sounds funny for a house called a "reel good spot", but some of our group also caught some fish while enjoying the angling opportunities. The family vote was unanimous that they hope to get this house again next year.

Great place for families

First time staying on the bay-side of Galveston and enjoyed the experience. Whole family came together for Easter and the kids especially loved fishing from the dock and the nearby pier. Little things like having comfortable outdoor seating very much enhanced our experience. Tip: Don't just hang out main level deck; the downstairs patio (under the deck) was our favorite area. Nice breeze and better views of the water.
