Great location

The house was in a good location for me to get to my events. The only drawback was the cross street was loud, but I live in the country so city noise is noticeable.

Cute yellow house

Property was as described and clean. Very close to the beach. Nice restaurants close by. I would definitely stay there again. It had everything we needed. If you have small kids, there was a bookshelf with lots of books and block toys in one of the rooms. Bonus that it was pet friendly as we have our fur baby with us.

Extended weekend

We enjoyed the stay and the house was cozy and well decorated. However, there was an issue with the door latch in one of the bedrooms that wasn't secure and did close, but did not cause us any loss of comfort. Overall, the accommodations were great and definitely worth the price.

Cozy very clean convenient historical home

When my truck RV was in the shop unexpectantly, this cozy historical home saved my sons birthday getaway. The place was immaculate, roomy and still decked out for Christmas. Kitchen had all the pots and pans. Beds were very comfortable. Parking is on street Easy access to beach and grocery. I would recommend this place to everyone.

The house was nice no issues. However if we would have known bout the construction activities going on right outside the house we would have chosen to stay somewhere else. Between being woke up at 545 in the morning with the noise and us being blocked in and not being able to come and go freely

Quaint getaway

The property itself was a cute little oasis, not to far from the beach but enough that it was quiet place away. The decor made the place feel very at home. We did find a cockroach in the bathroom and the communication was minimal with the host. We didn’t not receive check in instructions until just before check in and I had to reach out to get the same.

Just what we needed…

My son and I wanted a simple place with a kitchen near town to relax and enjoy some sun. This exceeded my expectation as it was fully remodeled, very clean, and we felt safe. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to navigate. Unfortunately the previous tenants caused us to check in late, but the manager/owner was more than willing to accommodate my requests and communicate often about our stay. Thank you for the lovely home away from home!

Overrated

Washer is broke they dont tell you till after you book your stay. Lots of hidden rules that should have been posted before hand and no parking. And you get blamed for stains that were already there.

Home away from home

After looking over many other options, we chose Patty’s Place for our little getaway. It was PERFECT. Exactly as pictured and described. The kitchen was well appointed. I did a lot of cooking and the only thing I can say was missing was some baking dish options…everything else was perfect! The place is clean and comfortable. The area is quiet and close to everything. Having two restrooms was a plus when getting ready to go out. Madison, the property manager, was quick to respond to questions and was very attentive. We needed this little getaway! Will definitely book here again!!

Galveston Cottage

This little cottage was precious, and well done and organized. They had pretty much everything we needed. Only slight negative would be the bedroom off the kitchen was a bit warm. They did come out and look at it, even opened a damper in the attic, but didn’t change the situation. It wouldn’t stop me from staying there, but if you’re hot natured, like my husband, an extra fan would be helpful. 😊
