We absolutely loved this house! It was clean, cozy and perfect for what my family needed. The host was very accommodating, making sure everything was up to par! She provided us with beach chairs and even offered us her personal fishing rods to use there at the house. Her husband even offered to clean the fish that we caught! And my favorite part was there dog, Cricket! Such a sweetie! I highly recommend this location. If I ever go back to Port Isabel, this is where I'm staying!

Beautiful property! Two streets away from the causeway to SPI. Very quiet neighborhood with a deck for fishing. Big enough for bigger families without feeling like you’re stepping on one another. Will definitely book it again!

Relaxed in a Storm

Bill and Sandy were wonderful people to be dealing with. They kept us calm while we were there and helped us with information and ideals to help us through our days there. The storm showers came and went the 5 days we stayed. But the place was beautiful. The view from the deck as we watch the rain pass over, we’ll always remember the comfort of it. The place it self was more than enough for my family. It had everything we needed to rest and relax. Thanks Bill and Sandy for everything. Until next time.

Spacious - they thought of everything!

O. M. G. This is one of the best places we've ever stayed in the SPI area! Sandy & Bill thought of everything you could need for a weeks stay! Spices, foil, plastic wrap, TP, paper towels, fully stocked kitchen! Even some water in the fridge! Plenty of room for a family gathering. Various places to sit & eat inside & out. Laundry supplies & a large washer & drier in the unit. Nice size bedrooms with plenty of places to hang clothes & dressers, too. Lots of living space to enjoy. Plenty of towels & beach towels. Even a beach umbrella! Lots of pillows & blankets. If you are flying here, just bring your clothes & a few toiletries. The showers had great pressure & were stocked with shampoo, conditioner & body wash. Plenty of free parking, too! Sandy & Bill are right downstairs if you need them & great people! Wonderful to work with! Highly recommend staying here! Hope to be back in the near future!

What an amazing find! This property is on a BEAUTIFUL canal in Port Isabel and we were surprised at how big it was! All the amenities we needed were there and the host was constantly reaching out asking if there was anything else we needed! Beds were super comfortable, location was super close to everything we wanted to see and do, everything was literally perfect. Highly recommend this property for your stay in Port Isabel/SPI!

We stayed at this location so we could be in the Texas 200 Regatta. We used the boat dock/slip to park our boat. Our hosts went out of their way to help us navigate the area, gave us directions to the local boat ramp, made ice for our ice chests, and even offerred to come get us if we got stuck while sailing. The house was set up with everything one would need to feed a family and is very clean and well maintained. The deck is a great place to relax as this is a very quiet area, The restaurants we ate at for breakfast and dinner were both within walking distance and the food was great at both.
