Pleasant, clean and relaxing!

Really great place to stay. Nice kitchen and the washer and dryer are very handy in the living area-no lugging clothes up and down to the storage room on the bottom floor to wash. Dock is large enough for 2 or 3 to fish off. We would recommend this one!

Summer triip

The beach house was very nice and close to the beach. We loved fishing off the pier at night and the property owner kept in contact making sure we enjoyed our stay. The only thing was the TV was working due to internet issues and at check in the cleaners hadn’t been there yet. But the property owner took care of it right away and gave us a refund for the trouble. We would definitely stay there again!

Birthday trip!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We had a few hiccups, but the host stayed in contact and handled everything great. Only thing i would add is a light over the bbq and fish cleaning table and some bbq untensils. Everything else was perfect! We will be back!

Perfect for us!

We were interested in fishing and brought my own boat. It was nice to be right on the river and have access to my boat right down stairs. It’s also nice having the boat ramp less than a half mile away and a bait shop.

Fishing trip

Overall fair experience. Main entrance door had blind between glass that needed replaced. This was main area of house and you could not remove yourself from viewing broken blind. When your in the glass business it kind of dampened our trip.

Good Thanksgiving getaway

Pros: Nice house, clean towels and beddings, very friendly neighbors. Cons: I had to contact owners the day of to get access information, there was hair left in the upstairs shower and a Trump flag hanging on house. My husband left his laptop after we checked out and the owner was prompt in responding to help use get it back.

About the host

Hosted by Joel Hering & Sabil Breazeale

Host profile image
We love to hunt, fish, ski and go to the beach so we knew having a home in Matagorda was perfect for our family and friends.

Why they chose this property

This property is conveniently located on the river close to Matagorda Beach and to town. Taking off on the boat in the morning, being able to pick up your family or friends right off the dock and being at the best fishing or skiing spots in Texas within minutes is very nice. This property is also fully remodeled, new paint, furniture, mattresses, sheets and kitchen ware. The layout and floor plan is nice having the bedrooms upstairs away from the kitchen and living room, plus the flow of the decks and BBQ area is nice being able to see everything and be right on the water and fish at the same time.
