This place was amazing! The location is perfect! It's at the end of a road. Very private and quiet. The house is very spacious and clean but the real beauty is outside. The view is amazing! This is our second stay and we will definitely be back! The owner is very accommodating as well. Highly recommend this place!

Spence’s place was a great cozy oasis … For me and my family there was nothing more comforting than waking up early, raising the blinds in the living room, breakfast area, and kitchen area, to take in the amazing sunrise with waterfront views… watching the fish jump just outside the driveway (literally) was so peaceful and relaxing.. we will be definitely staying here again!!

The best fishing spot we’ve stayed at! The house definitely has a comfortable home feel. We would have loved to stay longer. If you want to wade the shallows for fishing this is the place! We gigged our first flounder which was a blast and saw a lot of crab, trout and black drums.

Spence was great. If you like to fish, stay here. The private 300’ pier puts you in the same water as the fishing charters. Short trip to the beach on Padre Island.
