Beautiful space!
Our group had a blast staying here! Beautiful view from the deck, clean and comfortable bedding, and we adored the record player! Such a nice spot for a group of friends or a family getaway. Very short walk to the beach as well!

Texas Coastal Home
This property is about as close to Matagorda Beach as you can get. This is a relatively remote location on the middle Texas coast. I'm sure there are many issues with any property this close to the coastal beach and this one is no different with strong odors of mildew in the closed up house. These mold related issues ultimately forced us to cut our visit short by one day due to respiratory medical issues in two members of our group. Our hosts were easy to work with on a refund for the one day of unused occupancy.Our personal issues aside there is a virtually empty beach in your backyard, great shelling, and amazing dark nighttime star gazing from the elevated deck.
