Other things to note
NEW CONSTRUCTION:
The home is located in a developing community. We do not know exactly when new construction will start or how long to expect construction to last on any house. You may reserve a house at a time when there is no construction, however construction may begin prior to your arrival. We regret any inconvenience that may result. We have no control over these situations and are unable to refund your money.
BUGS:
Ants, mosquitos, cockroaches, silverfishes, spiders, love bugs, big bugs, small bugs, and all kinds of bugs are part of Galveston's life. You might see them unexpectedly during your stay. To control these pests, the house has been and will continue to be sprayed quarterly by our local pest control company. Per our pest control company, the spraying does not prevent them from crawling or flying in during the open and close of getting in and out of the house. However, if they do get in, they won't survive. Do not leave doors open; close doors immediately after use to prevent and minimize bugs from entering the home. Turning off the outside lights at the doorways also helps minimize bugs from getting inside as lights attract bugs and mosquitoes.
Do not bring food, snacks, candy into the bedrooms to prevent ants. Do not leave food crumbs on the floor inside the house that will attract cockroaches and ants, or on the ground floor outside near the grill and tables that will attract bugs, ants, and possibly wild animals such as raccoons or opossums.
DISCLAIMER: There are outdoor cameras surrounding the property.
