Matagorda Hidden GemRiver front night light onDock Family beach & fishing trips!

Amenities and location were great.

Annual trip with friends that grew up together 50 years ago. House is better than advertised. Hope to come back next year.

Great experience, this is an awesome place to stay. We definitely look forward to booking this listing. The host is super and the place is great.

We arrived on location around 10pm, well after check in time to find that the door code did not work and that there was no spare key in the lock box. We then had to sit outside with my child and wait for another hr. for a cleaning lady to arrive with a key. Bathrooms are not kept up and in need of major repair, shower walls falling off and shower doors off the glides. Bed sheets did not look cleaned when pulled back nor did the floors. Dirt and bottles built up under the couch that you can visible see. For the price they are asking they are not close to the quality of the other locations in the area that are asking the same amount. I asked for an extended checkout and I was soo graciously given 1 hr. and told any more past that would be charged. The Response from owners was delayed by several hrs. numerous times so you get no response in real time. Also, we had no access to the laundry room to wash clothes and when I notified them that the door was locked their response was that they don't think it can be locked....Well , it was locked and we couldn't wash clothes as we planned to due to our wade fishing trip. Honestly, the dock is a decent set up and the house has potential but the owners have not made any upgrades in the last few years as this is my second time to stay with the first being a couple years back. I had hoped they had taken the time to update as the price had increased from my last stay , but that isn't the case.

Everything top notch. Loved it

Awesome place right on the Colorado river and just minutes from The Harbor in Matagorda. Loved the porch and the pier. Will definitely be coming back this winter. Kids loved playing pool in the game room and fishing/crabbing on the pier. Nice layout with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.

The property was perfect for our event. It had a dock to fish from and room for us to play guitars and enjoy the time together.

The home was clean and roomy. The game room was an added bonus. It was Easy check in and out. The fishing pier gave us many hours of relaxation and fishing. Dolphins were swimming off pier the last morning. Had a great time and got some much needed rest. Would definitely recommend!

The location, back porch, firepit, & river view was great! The description of the house was not accurate. The “child bed” in one of the BR was a very small couch…it was not big enough even for a baby(we were counting on this bed to accommodate an adult). The house was not as clean as I would want for guests. The kitchen was not adequately stocked, we cleaned the refrigerator before we put our food in it, there was no blankets, not enough dining room or living room seating for 8 people, one tv was not hooked up for use, the LR tv we could not get to work( never received call from owners husband as promised to try & get it working), there was not a “ 2nd key” to open the rec room, coffee pot has to be coaxed to work, & only 1 BR trash can & 1 small kitchen trashcans. The owner was very apologetic, but house was disappointing for amount we paid.

Really enjoyed the property. Everything as listed. Caught lots of fish.

Great house and location, we had very good time and caught a lot of fish from the deck.

Trip and stay were fantastic. The Hidden Gem was what the name says. Owner was great to work, and communication was the best I have had. The house was close to what the pictures represent, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The dining room chairs needed some work. The game room was a great plus for all of us. Great for spending downtime and hanging out. The grounds of the house were kept well. The only thing that would have made it better would have been a big gas grill instead of the small charcoal grill. The fire pit and surrounding chairs was a hit with the group also. Of course, we were there for a fishing trip & tournament, so the dock was amazing. We spend hours during our off time fishing off the dock. The group caught plenty of fish and a few keepers. Overall I would recommend and stay here again and again. Thank you for a GREAT stay.

Private lighted pier for fishing( with cleaning table) night or day, Ok for boat docking/boarding, but no launching. Nice kitchen, adequate cooking equipment, plates, etc. Lots of bed and bath space. No complaints from us.

Great location and amenities.

Great place to stay

The beds are comfy. The AC works well. We have stayed here before and love the fact that each couple has their own king size suite. I was sitting on the covered porch watching my husband fish and reading the reviews of this place online and everyone was talking about the pool table. I mentioned it out loud and then my husband went around to the back of the house and found the door to the garage opened and there was a game room! If I had not read that, we would have never known. It's a fun little room. I wish it had been listed in the amenities. I have no clue if it was there 2 yrs ago on our last stay cause we're not ones to go snooping where we don't belong and like I said, we had no clue it was even there.

My kids loved fishing off the dock and the owner was very responsive when we tried. Contacting her. Property is very kid friendly and close to everything! We had more than enough room to spread out and relax for our recent Easter vacation. The pool table room was a neat addition giving the older kids a place to hang out without disturbing everyone while we slept! Loved the house and will definitely be back!

Loved everything. Great house!
