AMAZING WATERFRONT RETREAT W/ STUNNING GULF VIEWS AND FANTASTIC FISHING!
EXPERIENCE THE ULTIMATE COASTAL GETAWAY AT THE BLUE FISH BOWL
Escape the ordinary in our newly built coastal haven situated along the picturesque Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (ICW). Immerse yourself in the unparalleled beauty of this waterfront retreat. As you unwind, gaze at the awe-inspiring Gulf views, watch passing barges, and marvel at fishing boats as they embark on their daily quests. Let the day begin with a steaming cup of coffee on our spacious deck, offering a front-row seat to the mesmerizing sunrise over the Gulf of Mexico. In the evening, savor a glass of wine or your favorite IPA as you witness the horizon paint itself with rich, vibrant hues during the sunset.
A BEACH LOVERS PARADISE Kick off your shoes and feel the soft sand beneath your toes as you embark on a leisurely 3-mile drive to the beach. Upon crossing the ICW bridge, choose your perfect spot to run with the waves, and consider the tranquility down Canal Dr for a bit more privacy. Adventurous souls can continue their journey along the beach in a 4x4 vehicle, discovering the renowned Mitchell’s Cut to the right, where the Gulf waters flow into the ICW, offering fantastic year-round fishing opportunities. (Note: A 4x4 vehicle is recommended for venturing to the cut, and always be mindful of the tides to ensure a safe experience.)
ANGLER'S PARADISE Reel in the best fishing Texas has to offer from our property's pier under the enchanting glow of pier lights. Catch various inshore fish species, including speckled trout, redfish, flounder, black drum, and sand trout. The ICW is teeming with blue crabs; use our provided traps for a mouthwatering crab boil. Clean your catch with ease at our newly constructed fish cleaning station, complete with a sink, cutting board, and a shaded roof to keep you comfortable during the summer heat.
BOATING CONVENIENCE In September 2020, we added a 10'x30' wooden dock, ensuring secure boat mooring.

LUXURIOUS BEDROOMS The master bedroom has firm mattresses with adjustable bases for your comfort. Two of the bedrooms feature sumptuous Serta iComfort Blue Fusion Pillowtop Hybrid mattresses topped with Cooling Mattress Toppers, guaranteeing restful nights. Crisp white 1800-thread-count hotel collection linen sheets, microfleece blankets, and an abundance of pillows make these bedrooms perfect for post-fishing or beachcombing naps. The master bedroom boasts a king-size bed, a dresser, two side tables with lamps, and USB outlets for your electronic devices. The master bathroom offers an oversized mirror, spacious countertop, and a subway-tiled walk-in shower with a bold blue sea glass accent. The tranquil second bedroom includes a queen-size bed, dresser, and nightstand. The third bedroom is designed for relaxation with two full beds, a dresser, and nightstands. The hall bath is equipped with a soaker tub for serene bath time. White luxury towels are provided.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay here. House was clean and they had plenty of board games to use. Weather wasn't too hot and we were able to eat out on the back patio without being carried away by mosquitoes. Fishing dock was great and lights were easy to turn on. Kids loved seeing the passing boats and even got a couple to honk for them!! Would bring my family back here anytime.

The place was really clean and had everything you could need, besides fresh groceries! Jennifer, the host, promptly responded to any questions I had. If I had to complain, it would be the advertisement of many crab traps, yet there was only one. I also had to clean out the BBQ pit which looked like it had not been cleaned in a while. I filled up 3/4 of a 5 gallon bucket with ash and charcoal. All in all, I would definitely stay here again and I would recommend it to anyone who loves watching the barges come and go and the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets! Note to self: fishing isn’t that good in February…but hey, it was a great time!!

We thouroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. It is extremely clean and well maintained with comfortable furnishings and everything you could possibly need. The view from the balcony is fantastic. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, etc. and we were able to easily cook all meals. We had cold, wet weather, but there are plenty of games/puzzles to pass the time. This is by far one of the nicest homes we have stayed in. We definitely plan on booking this home again!

This was our 3rd time staying at this property for Labor Day weekend and it never disappoints. There was plenty of room for my wife and I, our 1 year old, my parents and my two siblings. Check in is easy, the house is better than advertised and the owners are very responsive. They have everything you could need in the house for a getaway. The property is pet friendly which is a plus. You can’t beat the balcony views or fishing off of the pier. We will definitely be back.

10/10 This place is beautiful! House was clean and fully stocked with everything you need! The bedrooms were big with comfortable bedding and furniture. The bathrooms were nice sized and very clean, and the kitchen is beautiful and big with a large table that allows 6 people to sit comfortably. We played games there too! We were able to tie off our 22 ft boat at the dock and fished all night under the lights where we caught several sand trout and red fish although they were a bit too small to keep. The top deck was awesome with great views of the ocean and comfortable seating and even a fire table. We loved it and will be back!
