Handy location

My husband and I stayed here with two friends for 3 nights in March. The size of the house was perfect for our needs. The views from the front decks were entrancing, with Laguna Atascosa NWR just across the channel and the state park 2 doors down. We had the area to ourselves midweek. The fishing lodge next door filled up for the weekend. The location was handy for getting to good birding hotspots.

Returning vacationers

We rented the house again and enjoyed the get away. There were new added upgrades to the property. There was a new retainer wall, fishing dock and cleaning station. The area was well lite for night fishing. We BBQ every night and enjoyed the patio deck for gatherings. The house is very spacious and really clean. The owner Ben is always a text/email message away from answering any questions you may have. My family booked a fishing guide and they caught some nice big reds. We hope to come back again.

Dad's Favorite Getaway

We have been renting this home from the owner several years now. This was my fathers favorite place. The owner is quick to reply to your questions and any concerns you may have. The home is beautful and well kept. I loved the upgrades to the home. The porch is huge and great for hanging out. The string lights make the porch glow. The BBQ area is well lit while cooking in the evening. The dock was our favorite hang out in the morning watching the beautiful wild life amd boats going by. My nephew liked fishing at night. The lighting is great. We were able to dock our boat next to the deck. We caught trout off the deck. The boys went out into the laguna and caught some big Red fish and a 25 inch trout. We will be making our reservation for the next trip soon. Thank you again for allowimg us to stay at your beautful get away.
