My wife was really doubtfull of recent trip here. Will never go back to port a. We had so much fun going out at 6, sip on our coffee, watch the sunrise a little after 7, take a short stroll thru the dunes and walk the beach. It was suprising to see more than 1 or 2 folks on the beach, yes its early, but no one all day, Fantastic and special place, tks for all. Mnl

Matagorda summer stay year 10

We have stayed at this property 4x over the last 10 years and have found it clean, comfortable and with great views of and easy access to the beach. The futon floor has a somewhat musty smell, and there were a couple of items missing we needed on this visit (trash bags and soap). Other than that, another great year and we plan to be back again next year.

It was a chill place nearby nothing but a gorgeous beach. Warning: you have to have a four wheel drive vehicle or garden galoshes to get the beach. The house was in good shape for being older. It sleeps a lot of people.

Great house in walking distance from the beach. Pet friendly.

Overall our stay was great. House was very clean and organized, there were toys and movies to play for our 2 grandkids. Only thing I would say that I wasn’t 100% with was the actual walking distance from the beach.It seemed allot shorter wall in the pics and the actual path about halfway down it had a makeshift bridge made with pallets thru the soggy ground. It was a bit slippery and we weren’t a be to our beach wagon over it, so we have to load everything up in our vehicle and drive around to the beach. But other than that it was a great place to stay with very reasonable price compared to the surrounding rentals and pet friendly.

Last Minute Birthday Get Away

Bobbie &Matt were excellent hosts, allowing us to set up last minute accommodations for my wife's 60th birthday getaway. The home is in a great location near the beach and close to enough to town for any last minute things we needed from Stanleys. The house was clean, neat and the house was well stocked with everything necessary for a great stay. We come to Matagorda often and will check their availability again. Take care, till next time!

House made for making memories

I searched and viewed many properties when looking for a place for us to spend Father's Day weekend with our family. My eye kept coming back to this house. I am more than happy with choosing Lazy Daze for our stay. The house itself is a perfect beach house. The decks are made for family visiting and relaxing on. The house is fully stocked, there isn't anything they haven't thought of including in your stay. Working with Bobbie and Matthew was a breeze. We will be returning in the future. Thank you for listing your property so that families like ours can make beautiful memories for a lifetime there.

Met the owners…super nice & accommodating!

We enjoyed our stay, but… 1. Downstairs living area very small…could have used the larger upstairs living room but we wanted to be close to kitchen for snacks & dining table for games 2. Small step up & down from dining room to living room was hazardous 3. No dishwasher was disappointing 4. unable to walk to beach due to swampy area 5. Parts of the house are in need of repairs

Great place to stay when winter hunting

We stayed in the house two nights. Duck hunted the first morning then came back to rest and relax. Headed to the jetty to fish till it was time for the night hunt. Headed out for a night hog hunt that did not finish till 4:00am in the morning. We met the duck guide at 5:00am and hunted till noon. Later check out would have been nice so we could shower after the hunting since we did not even sleep in the house the second night. Food for though when I book my next hunting trip. Run-N-Gun Adventures is probably the best hunting guide company in the Matagorda area, they are awesome fishing guides too! This house is perfect for what we needed it for. I would love to come back in the summer and enjoy the beach too.

Wonderful beachouse for two families to share!

We had a great stay at Lazy Daze. The house was more than enough room for two families. The beds were sooo comfortable. The adults used the king sized beds on the main floor and the teenagers used the futons and full beds on the second floor and loft. The house was well stocked and well maintained. Just a short walk over the dunes to the beach was easy. The beach was beautiful and calm. We had a blast sunbathing and collecting shells. The kids found a Frisbee and body boards at the house that they used down at the beach. We would definitely come back to Lazy Daze in the future. Loved the house and the nice town of Matagorda! We even went into the building at the Matagorda Bay Nature and RV park and found a touch tank with hermit crabs and fish. They loan fishing rods and tackle at that building. My husband and some of the kids caught quite a few trout while we were there. And crabs were running everywhere down by the pier. The have frequent "crab crawls" in the area to catch and cook them. Highly recommend Lazy Daze!

Perfect Anniversary Getaway!

We stayed Wed - Sat to celebrate our anniversary and it was absolutely perfect! We had so much solitude at the house, on the beach and even at restaurants in town that it felt like we were on a private island just for the two of us. The hosts were very responsive and communicated well. The house has plenty of comfortable sleeping spots and space for multiple families, the kitchen is well stocked for all your cooking needs and the view from the deck are wonderful! 180 degrees of dunes, beachfront surf, and beautiful sky from the top deck! We spent hours up there just watching the waves crash and enjoying the roar of the ocean. We went through the walk trail through the dunes long walks on the beach. It was great advice to bring rain boots for that trek. We also went to the LCRA Nature Science Center near by purchased the pass to drive on the beach. We have a Subaru Outback AWD and if you know how to drive on sand you should be fine most of the way but we saw several big trucks stuck. We saw several different types of birds and deer too! All and all it was everything we wanted to celebrate our anniversary! 💖 Definitely want to go back with family and friends!

Ocean Breezes and Family Fun

We all hopped out of the car after the long drive and headed straight for the beach. The mosquitos were waiting. After that first ambush we were much more prepared and wore long sleeves and pants for the trip through the dunes to the beach. Thankfully the house also came with a ready supply of bug spray! The gauntlet of mosquitoes along the trail was our only issue during our stay - they didn't even bother us on the deck. We loved everything else about our stay. The house itself is very comfortable and had everything we needed. Our favorite part was the two decks. The upper deck has amazing views of the beach and gulf. Our kids loved the nook room up at the top floor as well. It was nice that the majority of vehicle traffic on the beach was more towards the east where the main beach road is which gave us tons of space. As with all things along the coast there is definitely some rust and things like rough deck lumber and warped paneling. However, we had no functional issues with the house and it made a fantastic base for us to enjoy Matagorda. The folks over at the Matagorda Bay Nature Park were super friendly and helped us rent kayaks which was one of the highlights of our trip, so check them out if you go!

Guests love the peaceful atmosphere, the natural dune trail to the beach, and the easy access to both the shoreline and the wetlands behind the home.
