Take 12% May Rentals! EZ Walk To Beach.

May 1, 2012

My husband and I stayed the weekend of our 6th wedding anniversary. When we arrived and opened the door the house was spotless! We had already read the reviews about how comfortable the bed was, but the bed was REALLY comfortable! Flat screen TV in the living room, a better BBQ pit than we have at home, kitchen fully stocked with everything you need, including a brand new fridge just bring your food. The covered front porch was huge and we enjoyed our coffee each morning. The backyard is fully fenced, wonderful landscape and so relaxing...that's where we enjoyed our evenings. Linens were clean and fresh. The neighbor hood was so quiet and relaxing. So close to the beach! We had the most wonderful weekend; it will be our new anniversary tradition!

Owner's reply:

Thank you for this unsolicited review. We work hard to create a really homey and comfortable home away from home for all our guests. We hope to see you next year and congratulations on your anniversary.

We had a great time! The house was very nice, clean and welcoming. The beds were fabulous: so cozy and comfortable. We had everything we needed available to us in the "Cozy Cottage". Thanks for a great time!

Owner's reply:

Wow! Totally unexpected. Thank you Debbie. It was so nice meeting everyone in your family. We are thrilled you guys had a nice visit to Galveston. Next time, maybe you'll be able to get in to the West End Cafe.

Best,

Terry

Great value! The rental sleeps six comfortably. It will sleep 8 comfortably if privacy is not an issue. We had our two sons and their families in from Washington State along with several local visitors and there was ample space. Our beds were comfortable and the lines fresh. The place was very clean and the kitchen was well supplied. We cooked turkey, dressing, and fixings for Christmas day and the kitchen served us well. Being a former restaurant operator, I was impressed. Dining area and kitchen offers plenty of space for a large crowd to eat/snack and/or participate in multiple activities from, conversation to board/card games to watching TV. There are two dining tables! The wrap around deck is huge with plenty of deck chairs. A short 1 minute drive or a 10 minute walk will get you to the beach. Terry, the owner, was always very cooperative, informative, and accessible. We plan to work on making holidays in Galveston a tradition.

Owner's reply:

Thank you for great review. This was a new rental for us in 2011 and so far we have had an amazing year and to top it off a great family like the Wilson's to help close out 2011. It make us feel like all our work since Hurricane Ike completely washed the downstairs away is paying off. We hope to see you again. Terry

As a college student, my friends and I were looking for a mini vacation to get away for New Years. The house was perfect, and very clean. Although it is a little far from all the "excitement" of Galveston i.e. the strand, the seawall. It was nice to get away from the noise and traffic. The beach was beautiful, and Terry was extremely helpful. Thanks for a New Years I will not be forgetting. Go Bucs!

Owner's reply:

Thank You Hollie for taking the time and post a review. We are so glad you had a great New Years at The Cozy Cottage. Please come back this summer and visit us again.

Best,

We rented the Cozy Cottage the week of Thanksgiving. We have family in Galveston and needed more room to accomodate everyone. The Cozy Cottage turned into home the minute we opened the door. Everything was wonderful and as we would have hoped. We laughed at the fact that some of the family games we brought with us were already in the bookshelf waiting for us. The neighborhood was quiet and yet close to everything we needed. Terry was very easy to work with and made reserving the home a piece of cake. We sould highly recommend this home for anyone staying in Galveston. Super clean, super friendly and super easy to deal with. Thanks for everything. Steve and kalah

Nice quite street, it was clean, however, there was no bath soap or dishwashing soap and there were several light bulbs burned out and not replaced. The downstairs was musty but once aired out was okay.

This was the best place we've stayed thus far and it meet all our needs. The beds were comfortable and we loved sitting out on the deck. The enclosed fence was perfect for our dog. We look foward to coming back next year.

I want to start by saying thank you Terry. We had a great stay at your vacation beach house. It is very nice and clean. It provided everything we needed. I would highly recommend this house to anyone and will be back myself.

After five years of marriage, my wife and I decided to renew our vows. So we thought there was no better way then to spend a month on the beach. By staying at Cozy Cottage it made everything easier on us, all we had to do was unpack the car, everything else was taken care of. Anything and everything that you could need was already there, all we had to do was relax and enjoy the wonderful house. It was very spacious and roomy. We had such a great time. We spent a lot of time at the beach, shopping at all the stores, and eating at all the great restaurants. There is a grill out on the deck that we used quiet frequently. The view of the stars at night were gorgeous. It was so peaceful just sitting on the front porch in the evenings enjoying the ocean breeze. There is a playground around the corner that the kids played at. Terry was very helpful and we enjoyed the whole beach experience. The house was a great way to spend some much needed time together and it will always be an unforgettable memory, we will definitely do this again in the future. It was money well spent and look forward to our next stay! Thanks Terry and Jeanne!!

My husband and I had never rented a beach house before. We were having a graduation party for my daughter. It was wonderful to be able to handle so many of the arrangements online. There were so many plans to make we really appreciated Terry giving us so much information about the area so that we could get everything together for the party. It would have been much more difficult had he not been so helpful. The only surprise I had was that it was even nicer than the photos had shown it to be! It was decorated so cute and there were all kinds of cute little decorations (like the guy on the bike in the bathroom) and thoughtful items (games and puzzles) at Cozy Cottage to make our stay even more enjoyable. Everything was exactly like Terry had said. I had expected there to be problems because usually when you make these type of plans without having seen it in person, it never works out well. But in this situation, it worked out better! Everyone had a fantastic time! The deck was wonderful, the breeze fantastic. The downstairs bedrooms were laid out perfect. The kids could easily clean up from the beach, in their own shower, without tracking it upstairs. The A/C's upstairs and downstairs worked great. You could access the washer/dryer from a separate door so as not to disturb anyone downstairs if you needed to. It was the best weekend I had in a long time. I cannot wait for next summer! Thank you so much Terry for making my daughter's graduation weekend even more special. It means so much to us!

I just want to thank Terry and his wife for sharing their Cozy Cottage with my family and me. I must say, it was like arriving home because it had everything we needed to come home too. My husband and I most enjoyed the wonderful fresh breezes and drinking some great refreshments, out on the beautiful deck. The kiddos enjoyed having the whole downstairs area to themselves practically. Most of all, they were glad to watch their favorite cable shows & cooling down after a long day out at the beach because they had their own TV and AC. By the way, the beach was easily accessible and only took less than 5 minutes to get to it. One thing my husband was greatful for was that he was able to grill and that it was right out by the kitchen area. While staying at the Cozy Cottage, Terry and his wife stopped by to invite us to hear a band play and a crawfish boil in the neighborhood park, I believe he said. Though we were unable to attend cause we were so beat from being out in the sun, all day, it was very nice of them to do that. Also, the neighbors were very friendly and full of smiles. We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our Memorial Day weekend trip and had such wonderful people to make it happen for us! Thanks so much to the Hudson's and for making it so easy to want to come again and again. Hope to see you soon, we hope! :) The Barrios-Lujan Family

First of all Terry Hudson is so wonderfull, our trip was last minute, and he worked with us and was so patient the whole time. Im very thankful to have found such wonderful customer service, it's hard to find anymore.Our weekend went by way too fast. The Cozy Cottage was wonderful, there were 7 of us and we were perfectly comfortable. We had plenty of room and pretty much everything we needed. Jamica Beach is wonderful, and the neighborhood was quiet and peacefull. There is a gas station littleraly two minutes from the house and the beach is about 3 minutes from the house. The seawall is about 10 minutes from the house, it's just the right distance from all the traffic and people from downtown. In closing, our weekend was SPECTACULAR!! it couldnt have been better. And we will stay at the Cozy Cottage again! Thanks to the Hudsons!
