We really enjoyed our stay at Lil’ Blue. It was a great get away for our family. We wish the king bed had a pillow topper or something a bit softer. After a week, we were ready to get back to our beds at home. The kids had a great time fishing off the dock (even though we didn’t catch anything). But our crab trap we brought trapped plenty!! We also appreciated the plenty of laundry detergent and dishwasher soap!

Pros: House was well stocked for all your cooking needs, and the welcome basket was great!! Loved the clean bedding and towels. Cons: I should have read better I didn't realize the third bedroom is outside of the house. No ladder outside into the bay if you want to Kayak etc. It was a great stay, and everyone had a great time.

Great family weekend!
The stay here was very good. Our family really enjoyed this property, especially being able to fish off the back. Sitting on the upper or lower patio areas at night was very relaxing and there is usually a nice breeze blowing in through the cove. The local marina and resturant is awesome and convenient. The food there is great, everyone is friendly. You can get just about anything you need while staying here without having to make the trip into Galveston. Our only complaint about our stay was that the shower heads in both bathrooms spray very hard and dont seem to have an adjustment on them to soften the pressure or to change the spray pattern.That would be my only complaint, and that is minor. I highly recommend this property.
