Neighborhood

TREASURE ISLAND:
The 979 Crew just loves this seaside and bayside community flanked by Galveston Island on one end and Surfside Beach on the other. On your drive, stop by the grocery store for your favorite grillables and beverages, make a pit stop at the bait shop to fill your bait bucket (great fishing in TI), and/or place a call to make arrangements to rent a golf cart - this is a very golf cart friendly spot. Enjoy the Gulfside's uncrowded pedestrian beach (no cars allowed for 300 yards but golf carts welcomed) where you can setup your group's camp for the day on the beach to build sandcastles, jump in the surf, find unique shells and sand dollars, boogie board, shore & surf fish and build an evening bonfire. Or if preferred, utilize the available launch for your boat or kayak or head to the fishing pier on the bayside. Some much to do so little time!

Great beach house steps away from the sparsely populated beach there. House easily accommodated three generations of family with nice in suite bathrooms for the two larger bedrooms and are shared bathroom for the others. The space was open and airy with direct views of the sunset at dinner from the kitchen table. We will definitely be back.

We loved the house and the location for the beach. It’s about 7 miles from the closest restaurants at West End Marina and Jamaica Beach. I recommend to stop in Galveston at Wal Mart or there are several smaller stores that are well stocked with food on the way to the house. There was plenty of room for our family of 10, the bedrooms are spacious enough to put a Pack N Play for babies. The outside shower was very convenient. The neighborhood is quiet. The beach was not crowded. Next time we are here we will rent a golf cart to ride on the beach. Just a heads up is that there is only 1 set of keys provided, which was not a big problem, even though there were 3 separate families there. You can just lock the door and put the keys in the outside lock box. There is only 1 towel and washcloth provided per person. Make sure to bring beach towels. There was a very nice gift basket and card left on the counter. We will definitely stay here again when in Galveston. Thanks 979 Crew!

Ashley, thank you so much for your kind and helpful review! We’re thrilled to hear this beach house and location worked so well for your family and that you enjoyed the quiet Treasure Island neighborhood, spacious bedrooms, and that handy outdoor shower. Your thoughtful tips for future guests are spot-on—we know they’ll appreciate them! We’re glad you enjoyed the welcome basket and felt right at home. We can’t wait to welcome you and your family back to the island for another relaxing beach getaway—golf cart and all! —The 979 Crew

House was pretty good. Id give it a 8 / 10. They need some maintenence done to be on par with other houses we have stayed at down there in this price point.

Beautiful house and right by the beach! Overall loved our stay here, however we did have a issue: upon checkin the doorknob came off in our hands. We raised a ticket which was promptly responded to, however the knob couldn't be completely fixed - they did what they could, then later in our stay the knob fell out again, the glass handle shattering on the floor. We used the key/deadbolt for the remainder of the stay for access. With a new doorknob we would certainly return for a lovely location and amenities!

This is a beautiful home in a beautiful spot, we agree Ginger, thank you for noting. We're glad you loved your stay here and appreciate you being such nice guests to host. We apologize for the misbehaving door knob during your stay. Unfortunately, our humid salty seaside environment can make things tricky especially when it comes to anything metal. We do our best to work with the environment we have. We do hope you plan that return "doorknob behaving" trip.

Beautiful place to stay at! The home was just as described. Spacious, outdoor area, 2 minute walk to the beach, great location! Very peaceful area, they have a security guard that cruises the streets at night. Definitely will be rebooking!

This place was exactly as advertised. Beautiful views on multiple sides of the house. 3 separate decks/porches. The house inside was immaculate, very clean and very well decorated. Not too full. No clutter. House is very spacious, lots of room for kids to spread out. The location is awesome. A short walk to the beach, only about 4 houses away. The neighborhood is small and secluded. The road to the beach doesn’t go through, and because it’s a dead end, it makes it less crowded. Very easy to have your own space on the beach. We would definitely recommend this area, and this house specifically. We had a fantastic time, with only a couple small issues that were easily resolved. The managing company does a great job keeping it clean. If you are looking for a 4 bedroom that’s a little farther from town, this is the one. We will tell our friends to visit, and our family will definitely be back!!! 9.5 outta 10!!

The house was so nearly perfect! We had a great time & even extended our stay for an extra night in spite of a couple hiccups. The pros: location! Screened in porch with a perfect domino table, open floor plan with lots of seating, king beds, great linens. Cons: (all fixable!) the alarm messed up upon arrival we had to contact them & flip the breaker to turn it off, the dishwasher & disposal were broken, the handle to the door on the screen porch broke and scratched my moms arm, broke the skin, & the dryer ruined/stained 4 articles of our clothing! The bath tub barely drained, & there are no extra towels or mats for getting out of the shower. So you have to be very careful! Other than those couple things- we really did have a blast. Oh & my wife had a high score on Galaga!

Thank you for staying with us, and while we appreciate near perfect, perfection is always our goal! :). We're glad you enjoyed a blast of a great time and extended your experience. Biasly, we agree this is quite the scenic special spot! As for the dishwasher and disposal, sorry the breaker was misbehaving for you. With all the power blips we've been having, it seems the breaker met its match and just needed to be replaced and since has been done. With the sea air, salt, sand, and humidity (great for the beach, not so great on homes), rust certainly is no stranger. Sorry about the door handle and the scratch as a result. We're not sure what you mean by the dryer staining clothing? But we will certainly check it out, the tub draining and bath mats. Congratulations on the Galaga high score!

Beautiful house and just a few steps from the beach. The house was spotless, the kitchen was well stocked with all equipment needed to cook, very comfortable furniture in the living room and loved the split bedroom layout with bedrooms on each side of the house. The only issue we had was the door knob on the front door did not work but they responded quickly and it was fixed right away. We look forward to staying here again.

We travel to Treasure Island often as my brother has a house on the water. Every Thanksgiving we have a family reunion and many of us rent houses near his house. Porch Paradise is a very comfortable, super clean house with water views. It is tastefully decorated and laid out beautifully. We will definitely be back next year if it is available.

It is a lovely home. It was not terribly clean. The garbage disposal was stinky. I had to run soap through it and run it for a short while with hot water. The sand had blown up all around the downstairs and the outdoor shower. To where anyone who showered off would have to walk through sand again. My husband worked hard to clean the area. There was no grill on the property. We had to pay $60 from the food truck to feed the family. No lift. family.
