| Get out of the city and on to the Island!
Why stay with strangers? The Kate McCall offers a different alternative to traditional beach houses and bed and breakfasts. We’re not a crowded shack on the sand and we don’t sell you a room – you rent the whole historic Victorian house. This means on a lazy Sunday you can lounge in your pajamas, prepare special family meals in the fully equipped kitchen, or have a small cocktail party in your antique furnished parlor and still be just minutes from the water.
A 1900 Storm Survivor, the cozy Kate McCall sits in the heart of Galveston's hub of activity after having made an unexpected trip to sea. According to local legend, this house washed into the Gulf during the 1900 hurricane and returned to Galveston Island at East Beach. Firmly replanted upon her foundation, along with a couple of extra *also found* rooms, this determined dwelling is one of the islanders' favorites.
Quiet and serene inside, this 1869 house is steps away from Bishops Palace and Sacred Heart Catholic Church and only five easy blocks from the Seawall.
A stay at this no-host home will include an equipped kitchen, luxurious cotton bedding and Turkish towels, and it is beautifully decorated with European and American antiques. Cable, local phone, and wireless internet access keep this Victorian modern. Kate McCall is not your average island beach house!
You can escape to the Island and be minutes from the Gulf of Mexico and beaches, a quick trolley ride from The Strand, a quick jaunt from the city’s fine restaurants or cruise terminals, all while vacationing in an historic District.
The Kate McCall is rented at a flat rate. There is a two-night minimum required. Rates are approximate, packages are available. Email us for more special rate details!
