We have stayed here 7 times in the winter and have always enjoyed our stay. The Great Room is very roomy and relaxing. The Labrador was welcome as long as we “pickled up” after him. Mark

Our Go-to Place

This was our 5th time staying at the property. We wouldn't think of going anywhere else. It's a big place, with plenty of room for our friends and an open, fully-appointed kitchen. We love the large dock and palapas - a nice place to sit, fish, and watch the sun go down. Gloria is never more than a phone call away and couldn't be nicer.

We stayed here a few times. We actually stayed here approximately 10 years ago and we really like it. We caught so many fish. My family really loves it. From what I understand It’s not gonna be available to the public. It’s only gonna be available to members.

Spacious and great location

We had a great stay. The house is spacious and comfortable. Loved the deck, the pier, and the screened in sun room. Fishing was great from the pier. Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean. Only small cons were dirty utensils, some with fish scales, and the roaches, but thats to be expected when by the water. Host was great and promply addressed any issues or questions we had. We would definitely book this place again.

Windy weekend

Great set up for fishing place! Caught some trout and gaf top. Quick access to bait shop and by boat to Laguna Madre. Problem we had was a strong southeast wind and the front door on south side would not lock. We just put a chair in front of it. Unfortunately, the dishwasher wasn't working so I kept busy. Had an ant problem from around the stove, but we had some spray to fix that while we were there.
