Nothing Crabby about Crab Heaven

This place exceeded our expectations. Check in was simple, you walk into a great big covered patio that’s screened in with an awesome breeze. Perfect place to relax and snooze after a trip to the beach or a full day of fishing. Once inside the house had every accommodation you could want. A well furnished kitchen, comfy furniture, nice cool air conditioning, games and movies for the kiddo when it was time to come inside. The beds were very comfortable and the sheets were fresh. The bathroom has a nice big shower and clean fluffy towels provided. Even the decor of the place was awesome and helped round out the whole vibe. Out on the dock we were able to catch plenty of crabs and fish well into the night with the lights on. The host was great about communication and overall provided a very relaxing place to stay. We will definitely be coming back.

Matagorda Bay - House on the Colorado River

Great location and perfect house for small gathering...Outside patio was great and you couldn't get any closer to the water. Great lights at the dock and the crab traps were an added bonus.

Long weekend at the Crab House

We enjoyed a very nice Sat thru Monday weekend, the weather was great and we used the huge screen porch to eat our meals and to relax. The home was very clean when we arrived and all of the facilities worked with no issues. Granddaughter was thrilled to see Dolphins moving up and down the river in the evenings. Fishing under the lights was also good fun.
