The Anchor is the perfect home for a big family where everyone needs their own space and a private bathroom. We've had a family summer vacation in Surfside or Galveston for over 50 years. We've outgrown most of the houses,and,until this year, all the big places we stayed in were cramped and involved a lot of bedroom and bathroom sharing. In this home, every family has their OWN bathrooom and a nice sized bedroom in which to spread out. There is a central AC system that works great, AND many of the rooms also have their own little unit with temp control. And ceiling fans! Beds are comfy.The living spaces and kitchen are spacious, as pictured. The game room and theatre room are an incredible bonus! The massive porch/porches! with covered areas and comfortable seating are awesome for morning coffee and evening gatherings. And the newly built walkover bridge allows for smooth travel between house and beach.The kitchen has everything you need and washer and dryer work well.This house doesn't have any neighbors around it, so the open space is beautiful and peaceful. The sunsets on the bay behind the house are GORGEOUS.You can see the bay from many of the windows in the house, too. Some family members fished back there on their kayaks. (Yes, we had fresh redfish for dinner!) Owner communicated well. (Thanks, Andrew!) Fast wifi!! As expected with all the rain prior to our arrival, mosquitos were the only negative. But they won't keep us away. We hope to be back next year! 5 stars!
