Wonderful location for a family gathering

This house was above and beyond my expectations - the photos do not do it justice! Clean, comfortable beds, tons of towels. Danny was a gracious host with an incredible response time. Thanks for hosting us!

We had a great experience hosting Blair for a family weekend. The communication was pleasant and smooth at all times. Also, our house was left in perfect condition. They are certainly welcome to come back any time!

Perfect for big families/groups

This place had a spot for everyone to sleep, lots of seating and a fun little back area to hang out in. It was over a great place to stay with a short drive to the beach. However it was a bit cluttered and not the cleanest, and it says there is a community boat ramp, but we did not find one. There was a boat ramp that was fenced and gated for only certain people to use. Other than that, we had great fun.

Lovely Farm House

We were the parents of the groom and an aunt & uncke and another aunt and a brother with his wife and 3 kids. One cousin and his wife could not make it. The wedding was in Matagorda (very close by) and was perfect. The house was great, lots of room, clean and great beds. The brother and his 6 year old even went fishing off the backyard pier one night. 3 bathrooms! And the price was right. If we come this way again we will certainly stay here.
