About this property

Beautiful River House w/lighted fishing pier

Nestled on the picturesque Gulf Coast of Texas, this charming, stilted cottage offers the best of coastal living along a serene riverfront setting. It includes 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and washer and dryer. The master bedroom features a comfortable queen-size bed, while the second bedroom offers two full-size beds, and the third bedroom includes a versatile full-size trundle bed with an additional twin bed. The open and light-filled living spaces offer perfect views of the Colorado river and the natural surroundings of Matagorda Bay.

Step onto the expansive wrap-around deck and enjoy both great sunrise and sunset views. With a lighted dock on the river, outdoor enthusiasts can partake in fishing/crabbing day or night. Next to the dock is an outdoor shower and fish cleaning station with running water. For memorable outdoor dining experiences, there's a screened-in dining area where you can enjoy your catch of the day prepared in either the dual fish fryer or propane grill, both found downstairs. Access to Matagorda beach is only a short 5-minute drive. This riverfront house is a true gem that offers the perfect getaway from the city, with outdoor adventures and cherished moments in the Gulf Coast paradise.

The property was perfect for our family. We really enjoyed the dock, especially in the evenings for fishing. We did not lack anything needed. Will definitely book here again in the future.
