About the host
Hosted by Christopher Steven

I work in the Tech industry. I have a passion for the outdoors, and kids. At the age of 41 I adopted my first child and became a proud Dad. Two years later I adopted my second child. I have been married to a wonderful woman for 22 years. We are originally from Arkansas and moved to Houston for work.
Why they chose this property
This property was created in 1978 it has survived many hurricanes including Harvey and Ike. The house is completely fenced in and outside of random small rabbits, racoons or cats strolling through it is completely safe for your furry babies. Since the purchase of the house in 2022 we have been reinvesting and remodeling the house. Every stay you will see new additions and changes. We are working very hard to make this house the premier fishing destination on bolivar!
What makes this property unique
My family has a passion for helping our youth in foster care or group homes. We are Mentors for https://themayflyproject.com/. Here we get the kids outside and teach them strengths such as Patience, Grit, and Determination using Fly Fishing.
The house is available for booking anytime by the Boys and Girls Country of Houston at no cost. If you would like to contribute to them visit. https://boysandgirlscountry.org/
