True Hidden Gem

This is a wonderful family home! We loved being close to town but right on the river. Having 3 bathrooms with a big family is a wonderful thing and there was plenty of space to spread out! The porch is my favorite spot for drinking coffee and visiting with family. I love how it perfectly frames the view of the river! The fishing dock is right in front of the house and the fish are ready to be caught! This is our new favorite place and we will definitely be back!

Great Fishing Cottage

We are frequent visitors to Matagorda but this is our first time staying in this area on the Colorado River. Cute cottage — Great location, we unloaded the boat at the harbor but were able to dock the boat at the cottage’s pier during the day. Great fishing at the pier at night under the green lights. It was nice to find a house with 2 king beds! Owners responded promptly.

Nice Getawsy

This was a nice fishing trip for our son and 2 friends (15 years old). The property is nice, but is in need of some repair. We enjoyed our time there. Thanks!
