Where you'll be
Description
A classic Victorian stairway leads to a front porch perfect for enjoying a quiet morning cup of coffee. Through the front door there is a dining area to the left with a table that seats eight. To the right is a large living area with a coffee table large enough for everyone to join in family game night or jigsaw puzzles. The hall, with two bedrooms on either side leads to the kitchen with counter seating. The kitchen, equipped with modern appliances and utensils, was designed by the owner to fit the needs of foodies who enjoy cooking. A French door leads to an airy screened porch, excellent for after meal gatherings or entertaining. Through the screen door there is a large open deck and backyard with two hand laid brick patios. The outdoor shower is a refreshing end to a day at the beach.
Calico Cottage is perfect for a romantic getaway or multi-generational family gatherings. This home is warm and inviting in a great location – a place you will want to come back again and again.

We booked this beautiful home for 7 nights and had a wonderful experience. It's a short walk to the seawall but in a quiet neighborhood, on the corner of two non-thru streets so there was almost no traffic and plenty of parking. Two of the best features of this house were the screened porch, where we spent our evenings, and the outdoor shower which kept the sand out of the house. While it was perfect for our needs, this house might not be right for you if you wanted to use the downstairs suite for young children sleeping there alone. There is no indoor access between the two floors of the house, only outdoor stairs. The listed amenities included a community pool, but it's just the Galveston public pool 23 blocks away. The kitchen had every kind of cookware, dinnerware, and utensils you could possibly need. We were amazed at all of the storage space in the house -- empty closets, cabinets, pantry ready to stash all of your stuff if you want to come for a longer stay. The beds were comfortable and we encountered no maintenance issues at all. Check-in instructions were clear and the AC had been turned on so that the house was nice and cool when we arrived on a hot afternoon. Thank you, Calico house, for a great vacation.
