Nice house for our weekend stay

We brought our young grandkids for the weekend. Magnolia Beach wasn't so great for young children...probably more of a fishing beach. However, the home was very quaint. It had everything we needed. We loved the fenced yard and beautiful grass!

Cozy weekend end get away. Beautiful home with everything you need for the weekend. We loved the old book about Indianola! Only suggestion is maybe get some updated maps/brochures for guests, but we found everything just fine. We will recommend to others.

Home Away From Home

We had a lovely time at the little cottage. It was clean and had a wide variety of amenities available. The property was well kept and the inside of the house was clean and smelled fantastic! We took our boat and the drive way was easily backed into and long enough for truck and trailer. I wish the check out time had been a little later, since you do have to strip the beds, wash, dry, and put away the dishes and take out the trash before leaving.

What a gem!

My wife and I and a friend stayed here for a quick two night fishing trip. Perfect does not capture how great this house was. Everything we needed was there and the elevated porch with views of of the water was a perfect way to spend the afternoon. Even in the July Texas heat, the breeze made it pleasant to be outside. A perfect property!

Memaw's Beach house

Charming cottage, beachy decor. Situated in a quiet neighborhood. More amenities than anyplace we've previously stayed. TV reception was unbelievably bad and we couldn't figure out the Blueray. Enjoyed the backporch and the deck, however we were disappointed that we had no water view. Pictures shown led us to believe we would have a good view from deck and I was assured by Host that we would have that view.
