A great weekend trip
Host was extremely helpful and thought of everything we needed!! She had great suggestions for places to eat, a beach bag packed for our trip to Matagorda and everything we needed for our dogs. Highly recommend this host and place!

Double booking snafu
We, sadly, did not get to enjoy the property due to booking platform communications. However, Susan went above and beyond to find us a place to make our stay enjoyable! Highly recommend Susan as a host!!!

About the host
Hosted by Susan Dancer
Thank you for your interest in my rental! I'm local to the area, born and raised here and I'm a State licensed wildlife rehabber and use the proceeds from my B&Bs to help fund my all -species animal rescue work and Texas Blessings Rescue.
Why they chose this property
This house belonged to a local attorney and had been extremely well cared for all along. I was able to buy it from her estate after she passed away. I love mid century homes with their strong construction, functionality and the inviting hardwood floors throughout!
