Wonderful canal lot retreat
Absolutely amazing property and location. There are 6 of us who have been friends for 40 years and we were looking for a getaway and access to boat dock for bay fishing. This well maintained and furnished property was everything we could ask for and then some. Highly recommend! Great owner and check in.

We loved the house, location was excellent!
We enjoyed fishing at the house and at the pier down the street. We feel like the house looks much better in person than the pictures online

Could Not Have Been Better
As a former beach house rental owner, I am conscious of what it takes to provide a memorable experience for our guests. In this case, the owners have gone above and beyond all expectations in sharing their home with others.
The home is beautifully decorated and equipped, the kitchen is worthy of the finest gourmet. Five Stars all around.

None Better, Awesome
We've rented several places along the Texas Coast. This is the best home we have rented. My sister, brother-in-law, sister's granddaughter visiting from L.A. stayed with us. Everyone had a great time. I told friends and sent pictures and several wished they had been there :). Roomy, clean, so many extras, great cooking space, bedrooms very comfortable, ... too much to write about. But don't crowd this place because we want it to be available when we return ;)

Perfect!
This home was beautiful inside and out. Very spacious with plenty of room to accommodate a large group or family. Lots of extras available for beach time or fishing. It is in a nice, quiet neighborhood and had everything we were looking for! This place definitely made us feel like it was a home away from home. The owner was super informative and answered all of our questions in regards to the incoming weather, what the evacuation routes were and just wonderful to work with from start to finish for our stay. We would definitely be more than happy to book with them again in the future!

We loved our recent stay at this property! The pictures don't do the home justice. It's so charming, and you just feel right at home. We love to cook and the kitchen was so accommodating. The deck downstairs is nice and large, and the location to the pier was perfect for fishing and crabbing. We are looking forward to our next visit!

Great property and location. The owner was very attentive and swift with responding if I had some questions. In my opinion, pics didn’t do justice for this place. Although it still looked nice, I believe it was better in person. I definitely wouldn’t mind staying here again. Thank you.

Beautiful home, so close to the west bay
Clean, beautiful home with amazing decor. Kitchen and bathrooms were very nice. Cargo elevator made getting things upstairs for eveyone very easy. Plenty of sleeping room for everyone. We had so much fun relaxing by the water, socializing, and fishing. Property is located so close to the west bay and has an amazing view. Everyone enjoyed fishing right from the back deck, and also a fishing pier that was very nearby. Caught some flounder, croaker, black drum, and a speckled trout. Ice machine in livingroom bar was very helpful and kept up with supplying ice for 10 people. Plenty of parking space for all family members. Hosts were so helpful, and accommodating, making our stay so great. We will definitely plan on staying at this location again!
