River front Colorado River house perfect for fishing & boating in Matagorda, TX

Enjoy the seclusion and peacefulness of Selkirk Island in this family friendly waterfront Colorado River house for up to 8 guests. Let your troubles slip away as you take in daily unbeatable sunsets from the balconies and upper pier deck. Coffee from the balcony and afternoon drinks under the palapa are the perfect ways to start and end your day while watching boats… and the occasional barge… parade by. You can enjoy night fishing under the lights and summertime crabbing from the pier just steps from the back door. The Colorado River is the perfect spot for summertime boating and water sports, and the community boat ramp is just down the street.

Selkirk Island is a quiet and secluded neighborhood making it great for taking walks or biking during your stay. Don’t miss out on the local seafood and be sure to spend some time in the historic town of Matagorda just 10 minutes away. If the beach is your happy place, you are only a 15 minute drive from the Matagorda Beach entrances. This home away from home is the perfect spot to help all your stresses melt away.
