The beaches near by are not crowded like they are in Galveston, which we loved. It is a quiet neighborhood, and very relaxing.

Awesome stay

Great stay, owners communicated great and even added a little custom welcome pack for us. My 9 year old had a blast fishing and we caught a few speck trout off the dock in the canal. Quick getaway was awesome and my son loved the beach of course too. Lots of deck space so we watched sunrise/sunset. And they just opened the county park store right around the corner for quick trip to get any necessities. Comfortable beds too, all in all great trip, already booked another trip here.

Cozy small beach home

The home is as shown in pictures. This is a small home with a separate private bedroom downstairs. Good for 2 couples and 2-3 children. We just used the home not the private bedroom. We took our boat and caught some drums by the bridge. Would recommend for families to stay here.

Great stay. Rueben was prompt with communication. Fishing on the canal all night. Beach all day. Could t get the light over the canal to work but the neighbor turned his on for us. Neighbors are friendly too. Caught a PB black drum in the canal and lot of blue crab. Only draw back was one bathroom but we made it work. Outdoor shower is nice to rinse off in. House was clean and comfortable.

Vacation 2022

We had a really nice stay. Beautiful house! Was a little disappointed in beach items. There weren’t any beach towels or chairs. So that was disappointing as we flew in and couldn’t bring anything like that with us, but other than that had about everything we needed. Overall great stay!

Hi Dannielle, and thank you for staying at La Bahia. We had beach towels but after your comments find out that they went missing just prior to your stay. No excuses however, we apologize for that and have since replaced them. We also took your feedback and provided foldable beach chairs as well. Thank you for bringing this to our attention as we strive to hit the mark with every single renter. We hop you come back to stay with us in the future. Reuben

We've stayed in many bay homes in this area. This one rates high with us.

Place was very clean and organized. Had all amenities needed for long stays. We were there for almost 3 weeks. Host was very accommodating even in the midst of Hurricane Nicholas. Place was a mess with debris and med everywhere. Host maintained contact and was there right after the roads opened to clean up. Says a lot about care and quality of Host. We will definitely stay again in the future and would recommed to anyone.

5 Star Hospitality

First of all, La Bahia is exactly what we were looking for: a place to get away, unplug and refresh. Our host, Reuben was outstanding! We pointed out a couple of minor deficiencies, and he not only came within 2 hours (drove from Houston), but he also fixed all issues and brought me a 6 pack of great beer! If you like the beach, fishing and relaxing, La Bahia is right for you! Having the 3rd bedroom as a separate apartment is perfect for teens or seniors.

**Perfect Family Getaway in Freeport**

The house in Freeport was perfect for our family of six plus our dog. We loved fishing in the canal, relaxing in the hammock, and the proximity to the beach. The grill was ideal for our hamburger night, and our cornhole game fit perfectly next to the canal while someone enjoyed the hammock. The layout was great, with a downstairs room (ground level) that included a bathroom and laundry room. Upstairs had two bedrooms, a kitchen, a dining room table, and a living room. The decks were perfect for morning coffee and star gazing at night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Great vacation spot

This was a great stay. The home was nice and clean. We caught fish and crab right off the dock. 3 different decks to sit on and watch the sunsets. Close to the beach within 2 min drive. Grill on-site worked great but is older. Also this location is a 30 minute drive in both directions from any meaningful grocery store. So make sure to load up on an groceries or supplies you need on the way in so you don’t have to make trips out. The beaches were spectacular. Great access and not crowded at all. This location is perfect for beach goers. Would highly recommend.

Great Place To Relax!!

Our family has been making trips to San Luis for many many years. Having relatives that own properties next to this location makes things even greater! The property is at one of the greatest places to stay in Treasure Island. A boat is not necessary for fishing. Most our family prefers night fishing and many fish can be caught right in front of house under light. For those that wanna just relax, inside or outside has plenty of space to enjoy. The views from decks can be amazing especially at sunrise and sunset. Great place to enjoy regardless of age. Definitely are looking forward to next trip there. Thank you Reuben for allowing us to enjoy your place and being available for anything needed.

Good place

There was a few things in disrepair like one burner on stove didn’t but nothing major . We came here to fish and was disappointed there was not crab trap for use to use and most of the rod holders was broken . The lower bedroom was very humid . I think the ac in there might should be updated . I think the fishing there could be fantastic it you catch it right . We caught a 30 lb gar which gave us a tall tell . Good place I’ll be back .
