About the host
Hosted by Albert Beauge Jr

Welcome to "Once Upon A Tide" hosted by Steve and Albert! We are the proud owners of this beautiful unit located in Matagorda, within walking distance to the beach, and in the backyard a catch and release fishing lake. As great friends we both with our families reside in the Katy area outside of Houston. We also work together as RN's in the Katy hospital system. We wanted our families to have a place to getaway and found this special place. We welcome you to enjoy our home and the beauty of the surrounding area.
Why they chose this property
After searching we decided on this location due to the close proximity to Houston, Katy, Austin, San Antonio and other surrounding towns. The condo has stunning views of beach which provides a peaceful serene setting.
