The hill private fishing pier NOT water front

Perfect weekend getaway close to home!
Here at the hill you forget everything going on in life. As you walk in you feel the coziness; with your own private pier and boat deck! While in the hill you absolutely love the bear theme. While the fishing pier is not located in front it is located a few steps away.
While in the area make sure to check out Brownsville zoo & museum.
If you’re bring boat please book in any of our other cabins that are waterfront. A boat ramp is located in Adolph Thomes Jr County Park.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi. The cottage also includes a coffee maker.

close to fishing pier

the location is close to the fishing pier. plenty of room in the house. just need an antenna for the tv. not everyone in our group fished. Overall clean but does need a deep cleaning. the one issue was the oven/stove not working we had to turn on the breaker to use the stove. Overall a nice location

Best stay at the Arroyo

The property was spacious. Very well equipped and huge fishing pier. Communication with host was great with quick response and made themselves available for any needs or questions. Our best stay in Arroyo so far.
