Matagorda Delight

The rental was exactly as described - it was perfect! impeccably clean, very nicely renovated, and modernized. The deck was out of this world! A very nice place for anyone having a get-together. The owners were awesome. Great communication and a delight to talk/text with. I highly recommend this home away from home!

Excellent house for family vacations

The property is newly renovated, and the renovation is excellent. Lots of high end touches. The over water, covered deck is fantastic and perfect for watching sunsets. The owner is very helpful. It is clear that they have put a lot of time and thought into their property. We will be coming back.

Perfect stay on the river!!

The home was so clean and fresh, and had a perfect setup for a family stay. The property owner was very helpful and made himself available in case we needed anything during our stay. The view off the deck was unreal, and my brother loved fishing off the dock the entire week. It is easy to run into town or head out to the beach, the location is right in the center of beach road! We will definitely be renting this property again!!

Great stay on the water

Boat house is huge with ample room to dock your boat during the stay is a selling point. The house and cleanliness of the property is great. Wife and kids were very comfortable during a spring break stay. Owners are friendly and communicative. Beach is only 5 minutes away. I will definitely be back.

Family Vacation

The stay was perfect! We very much enjoyed the upstairs deck with our five grand babies ranging from 2 years of age to 12, felt very safe… the only thing I would change would be the ac be cooler during the day closer to evening but that’s just me I’m hot natured. But truly everything was AWESOME would return again!

Great house on the river

4 friends and I stayed for the weekend. This well stocked house appears to be fresh off a remodel and looks great. We used the boat slip with no issues. There is a public boat ramp ~1/2 mile up the river. Highlight for us was the second story covered deck. Up there you will find ample seating, gas grill, fishing light, water hose, a huge TV, and incredible sunsets. Owners were responsive and easy-going. No issues. Great weekend. Thanks!

Perfect fishing heaven

If you're looking to fish in Matagorda, book this place now! It is located on the Colorado River just about a mile before it dumps into the Gulf of Mexico, with fishing right off the back yard, and a short drive to either the jetty to fish, or an equally short drive to the immaculate Matagorda beach, where you can drive your vehicle right on the beach and set up a wonderful camp. The house is amazing too. Comfortable beds (1 King, 2 fulls, 2 twins) and the most fully stocked kitchen with really sharp knives and amazing utensils. The owners of this house have such pride and provide thoughtful amenities (soaps, shampoos, coffee/laundry starter kits) and they even have a full sports package on the TV's so you can watch all of the big games on the extra large living room deck. You will not regret this one. (Plus my 13-year old caught a 39" Bull Red right off the jetty!)
