About Dale Cox
Semi-Retired from the Automotive Service Business, Love Rural Living in the Hill Country of Central Texas, Fishing, Hunting, RVing, Restoring most anything and spending time at my place in Palacios. (When it's not booked!)
Dale Cox purchased this House in 2010
Why Dale Cox chose Palacios
My family moved to Palacios in 1909 and have been present in Matagorda County for generations so, after spending many weekends a year for years fishing in Rockport and seeing the traffic building and overcrowding/choking the Bays there. When I decided to get a Second Home at the Coast, I naturally chose Palacios for my connection to the area and the uncrowded Bays.
What makes this House unique
The home is just two and a half blocks from the "South Bay" Boat Ramp & Marina the new Palacios Pavilion, Fishing Piers, Jetties and Bayside Beach & Park. Palacios is a small community so most everything you need is just blocks away

We had a wonderful time staying at your cute and comfortable little house. Everything was perfect, except for the weather! We did enjoy our stay and will be back. While we couldn’t take advantage of all the fishing we would have liked, due to weather, we hope to come back and will definitely come back. You have it set up perfectly for fishing. Definitely recommend staying here!

Perfect little vacation house

We loved everything about this house. It made our vacation just amazing. The bedroom was very romantic for my husband and I. Our daughter slept on the futon and our dogs in their kennel and it was all perfect. Very clean and orderly. Fully stocked kitchen which was very helpful. Lots and lots of towels available. The sheets on the queen size bed were very good quality and made it that much nicer. We loved the dining room table so much we want to purchase one for our home. Our dogs loved the stay as well. Huge yard with plenty of room and all fenced in made it stress free for us. We will most definitely be staying again in the future. Perfect for our little family. Thank you so much for having us! And thank you to the owners they were so quick to respond to any questions and had so much great advice and information for us. Overall the perfect experience/house!

You will really enjoy your stay at this cozy home. It is nautically decorated and sets the mood for relaxing. The owner is super quick to respond to any questions and provided us with fishing tips and info about the area since it was our first time in Palacios. We traveled with our two small dogs and really enjoyed the fenced yard. The bed and linens were like sleeping at a 5-star hotel - better than home! Take advantage of the kayak and the fishing cart. Little touches like the neon-lighted shower head made for a fun stay.

Cutest little cottage on the South Bay! Everything was as promised and likely we will book again in spite of the fact we don’t fish! Thanks to Dale and his wife!
