Finish off the evenings with a tasty family-style meal on the main floor with your crew dispersed between the breakfast bar and wooden dining table. From the eclectic artwork lining the walls to the top-of-the-line modern furniture, this house is the perfect coastal Texas home-away-from-home.
When it's time to call it a night, retreat to one of the 3 bathrooms to brush your teeth before you hit the sack!
