Stayed Oct 22, 2021This is exactly what me and my partner needed. We loved staying in Susan house it was so peaceful and had everything we needed. Loved the country and loved the beach so beautiful. And the nice little restaurants around the area are wonderful with kind people. My partner loved it and he said we definitely should come back. Susan was a great host and very kind !! Great stay!

Stayed Sep 3, 2021Owner hovered and came to property twice in 12 hrs. I've stayed at many vrbo properties and never dealt with owner/ manager popping in unannounced. She won't get many repeat customers and that's guaranteed. No where does the rules say you can't have a guest during daytime hours. Complaining of having 5 instead of 4 daytime visitors (not overnight guests) made an uncomfortable stay. Would not recommend this property unless you enjoy being watched and confronted.

Stayed Jul 3, 2021We were Susan and Terry's first renters and we loved it! We'd never been to Matagorda Beach but it was awesome. Less touristy. Drive right on the beach for $10/yr. (Make sure you bring your 4x4 though...the sand is soft! Lots of folks were getting stuck.) There's a parking lot within walking distance if you don't have an off road vehicle. But the beach itself was clean (for the gulf) and fun! The only downside is that this retreat is an escape so there's nothing close by. You're a good 30 minutes from dinner, shopping, etc. But the home is comfy with all the amenities and the view! It's spectacular.
