WATER ON THREE SIDES | PRIVATE BAYFRONT ESCAPE

There are properties you stay at…
and then there are places you never forget.

This is one of those places.

Set on a rare stretch of land with water on three sides, this private bayfront getaway delivers the kind of experience people come back for year after year — the kind they talk about long after the trip is over.

From the moment you arrive, something shifts.
The air feels different. Slower. Calmer. Real.

FISH. CRAB. REPEAT.

If you love the water, this is your playground.

Step outside and you’re instantly in it —
casting lines for speckled trout, redfish, flounder, croaker, and sheepshead right from your own dock.

At night, flip on the LED fishing lights and watch the water come alive.

Throw out crab traps along the bulkhead and pull in blue crabs and even stone crabs in the right season — with summer being especially productive (and yes… you might still get lucky in the winter).

Want an edge?
Mullet makes incredible bait — and works great in the traps too.

And for the story you’ll tell later…
There have been alligator gar (4–7 feet) caught right here on light tackle. Big water. Real fishing.

YOUR OWN PRIVATE COASTLINE

Bring your boat and tie off at your private dock.
Swim straight out from the boathouse into 3–5 feet of water, or head about 80 feet out to a hard sand flat that’s knee-deep — perfect for walking, playing, fishing, and just enjoying the water without ever leaving your space.

A brand new ladder makes getting in and out effortless.

Under the boathouse:

Fish cleaning station
Outdoor shower (perfect after the bay or beach)

You’ll also find kayaks ready for you to explore the surrounding water, giving you a completely different perspective of the bay.

Everything is designed for one thing:
being in the water, not just near it.

SUNSETS THAT DON’T LOOK REAL

Every evening, the sky puts on a show.

The sun drops slowly over West Bay, setting directly behind a protected bird island — home to one of the largest bird populations around Galveston.

No buildings. No distractions.
Just open sky, water, and color that doesn’t feel real.

This is the moment people stop talking…
and just watch.

ROOM FOR EVERYONE (AND THEN SOME)

With 5 bedrooms and space for up to 19 guests, this home was built for gathering.

A brand-new kids’ bunk room with a 50” TV (plus an extra twin + cot for that 19th guest)
A stunning upstairs queen bedroom with floor-to-ceiling bay views — easily the best seat in the house for sunrise and sunset
A large upstairs living room with a brand new 65” TV for relaxing after a full day outside

Open living spaces. Easy flow. Plenty of room to spread out or come together.

OUTDOOR LIVING DONE RIGHT

This is where you’ll spend most of your time.

Wraparound decks with panoramic water views
Two hammocks ready to hang (setup located under the carport)
Seating everywhere — main deck, boathouse top, and shaded space below

Coffee in the morning. Drinks in the evening.
And somewhere in between… you lose track of time.

COZY WHEN IT’S COOL

When the temperature drops, this place doesn’t lose its magic — it changes it.

A wood-burning fireplace upstairs lets you sit inside, warm, while looking out over West Bay.
Water in the background. Fire in the foreground.

It’s the kind of contrast you don’t get very often.

Space heaters are available for extra comfort — but most people just stay right there, staring out the window.

THE MOMENT YOU DIDN’T KNOW YOU NEEDED

BRAND NEW 6-PERSON HOT TUB

And this… might be your favorite part.

Slip into warm water after a long day.
Jets rolling. LED lights glowing.

No city noise. No distractions.
Just stars stretching endlessly over the water.

Time slows down out here.

Maybe it’s a late-night drink with friends…
Maybe it’s quiet after everyone else has gone to bed…

Or maybe it’s just you… sitting there… finally able to breathe.

You stay longer than you planned.

Because you don’t want it to end.

WANT TO TAKE IT UP A NOTCH?

Just 2 minutes away:

Hal Newsome’s Airboat Tours
Explore marshes and backwater areas most boats can’t reach.

Fast. Wild. Memorable.

A perfect add-on for families or anyone wanting something different.

WHY PEOPLE COME BACK

It’s not just the fishing.
It’s not just the views.
It’s not even just the house.

It’s how it makes you feel.

Slower. Lighter. More present.

And when you leave…
you’ll already be thinking about coming back.
