Fish on!

Great location and dock to fish the San Bernard River. Caught a 2lb flounder and several small redfish during our stay. Inside is nicely remodeled, but exterior could use more curb appeal.

Fun fishing and resting

Last minute trip to unwind and fish and that's exactly what we did. We caught so many fish off the pier. House is cozy and cute. Not a lot to it but perfect for fishing and resting. At night the sunset was amazing. The scenery reminds you of an African sunset. You have to see it to truly appreciate it. Just beautiful. We were not disappointed. We will come again.

River Front Tranquility

The small living quarters were clean and neat. I appreciated the remodel, it was quite a nice place inside. The property owner was responsive to questions and very pleasant to deal with. Turn on the green light at dark and it attracts all sorts of aquatic life. We caught redfish, hard head, sand trout, and saw shrimp and gar as well. My son hooked something very large that broke the line...

Could’ve been better

I had high expectations because the rating was a 10 but there were a few issues. In the kitchen there were crumbs on the counter and 2 of the coffee mugs were dirty and there was dog hair on the sheets which led me to believe the unit had not been cleaned. Small issues that I could overlook once host explained but the major issue was the bathroom. The toilet appeared to not have been cleaned as the bowl was brown (from the rust I later discovered) and then I looked in the shower and the floor and some areas on the wall were orange. The showerhead had alot of rust and the tubing was completely orange. So I turned on the shower and put some water in a glass and it was murky. After messaging the host she stated that they have well water and to run it for a bit and it would clear up. It did clear up somewhat but it was not stated in the listing that they had well water. The host said it was in the guide. I never saw or found such guide. It should be listed in the main page clearly visible. The water had a very strong rust smell and I was also concerned with bacteria since it’s well water. The host offered alternatives but we had a family function the next day so we had no choice but to stay. We did leave a day early and are going to be refunded for one night stay.

Great Weekend Getaway!

My husband and son rented this place with some friends for the weekend and they had such a good time. The place was just as the listing described and very relaxing. They didn’t catch any fish but that could’ve been user error, lol. Julia was very helpful and communicative and just a wonderful host! They said they would definitely stay there again!

Beautiful place to relax and retreat. Enjoyed the privacy of the property, made full use of outdoor spaces to catch up with grownup sons with activities, games and cookouts every evening. Even our 4pawed family had a blast.Definitely need to comeback.

Great fishing

Our kids caught fish and a crab. Watching the lake once dark, illuminated with a green light was a special joy. Kids found some coloring books and really appreciated them. We loved the convenience of fishing poles, proximity of the ocean and lots of great dining options near by.

Relaxing, Quiet, Peaceful River Retreat

This place I will definitely go back. So quiet, relaxing, and peaceful to get away from your hectic life. Clean and well equipped. It was only my husband and me for our 29th anniversary. We had so much fun fishing during the day and also at night. They have so many activities on site for the whole family to play. Julia, thank you for sharing your retreat. Trip was awesome.
