Our vacation rental is situated right across from the Tres Palacios Bay. We have beautiful sunrises to look at right from the front porch or yard, as well as the perfect view of the bay.

There is a boat ramp and several fishing piers right across the street. However, we have plenty of room for you to trailer park your boat at night, right behind our place.

Our beautiful 1 and 1/2-mile-long seawall is very enjoyable for a romantic stroll. It is also a perfect run for the athletic. You will get to enjoy the many, many Shorebirds & Pelicans and you may even spot some dolphins that frequent our bay. Palacios is on the Great Coasting Birding Trail and the wildlife around here is bountiful.

You can have a picnic at many of the tables along the bay with small BBQ grills. If you have children, there are awesome nautical playgrounds to entertain them.

Palacios has many covered table areas, 3 playground for kids, restrooms, and grassy areas for picnicking. Numerous piers are spaced out along the parks bay side, all of which are well lit for your coastal fun. It is such an enjoyable experience being in Palacios, Texas.

Costal Cottage Bay House

The Costal Cottage Bay House was a perfect spot for a needed get away, the location is definitely what makes this property. Seeing the sunrise in the bay every morning is worth every moment. The Point store is a 3 minute walk and the bay is also walking distance. The owner are definitely great host, I would definitely recommend if you planning to visit Palacios, Tx to try out the Costal Cottage Bay House.

Beautiful Coastline

What a lovely job the owner did on this little studio space. It truly does have everything you need. We enjoyed the outdoor seating provided and the cheerful indoor space. All small towns are struggling to get back on their feet right now, but Palacios offers much beauty along the well-maintained coastal path featuring fun playgrounds, picnic areas and water access. We felt sincerely welcomed by the owner of the cottage, local restaurateurs and shopkeepers.

Located in a quiet, scenic area. Excellent value. Just a few steps away from the waterfront of Tres Palacios Bay. Cottage is small but very comfortable. There is no conventional stove or oven; instead there are hot plates and a toaster oven -- but we were able to do all the cooking we wanted.

About the host

Hosted by Marianne Cook

Host profile image
My husband and I have lived in and loved Palacios, Tx. for many years. We love the hometown feeling and living on the bay. We love our views of the bay and wanted to share it with vacation renters in the area. We have designed our apartments with the coastal flare that we love.

Three years ago renovated a house that was hit by a hurricane and needed a lot of work to make it a special Coastal get away for you. We love the coast and have decorated with coastal and beach colors. Now we have expanded and soon will have 3 vacations rentals at a great location with awesome views of the Tres Palacios Bay that leads into the Gulf of Mexico.

We purchased a 4300 sq foot 1920s barn with an apartment in the back. We just renovated the barndominium in Dec 2021.
