The Barefoot Bungalow is located on the Colorado River in Matagorda Texas. The house features a large open living area and kitchen. There is a large bedroom with 2 bunk beds , twin on top and full on bottom, and a small sleeping area with a full bed, as well as a full sized sleeper sofa. Bath towels and all linens are provided, just bring towels for the beach.
Cold a/c will keep you nice and cool between fishing trips.

You can enjoy fishing day and night on the private lightedpier. For boaters, there is easy access to both East and West Matagorda bays. We are located on a private road, so you don't have to worry about cars speeding by like the busy main beach road. Beautiful Matagorda beach is just a short 5 minute drive away. The public boat ramp at Riverbend is only about half a mile away.
The patio area below the house is concreted and always cool and breezy. Perfect for family gatherings, grilling, or a good crawfish, shrimp or crab boil. Be sure to bring string and chicken necks, the crabs are always biting off the pier.
For nature lovers, the birds are always enjoyable! Many species can be seen from the deck, including pelicans, herons, gulls, pipers and if you're lucky maybe even a Bald Eagle!
The house faces West bay, and in the evening the sunsets are beautiful. Bring your kayak and paddle out through St Mary's bayou , you can follow the marked kayak trails to East Bay. There is something for every one in Matagorda!
Come on, Go Barefoot!

    Our family decided to go to Matagorda at the last minute and we’re able to book a trip at this house. It was easy affordable, and we had the best time ever. They made the process easy to check in and out. The house was family, friendly to play games and engage with everyone together.

    Down for a fishing weekend with my buds. The house was everything it was advertised to be, and frankly, better than expected. Tons of towels, bedding was nice, bathroom was clean and modern, kitchen was packed with cooking supplies, and the host was helpful and responsive. The neighborhood was private, clean, safe and full of families having fun. Walking distance to a remarkably good outdoor restaurant/foodtruck/bar, None of us would hesitate to come back with our wives/kids. We’ll be back. FYI: first cast off the back deck we reeled in a flounder big enough to feed three men for dinner.

    Loved the place it was absolutely what we needed!!! Very clean had everything you need. I would say the Grill was very rusted inside(but it’s on the coast) they should replace that as we couldn’t use it. I cooked burgers inside though no biggie. We caught lots of fish!! Thanks to the host and the timely response. We definitely will go back again!!

    Great location and a beautiful home! The kitchen is fully equipped, and there are plenty of towels, bedding, pillows, and games for the kids. Fishing was excellent this weekend. One of the pluses is that they provide trash service, so you don't have to haul trash to the dump. The host is easy to communicate with and responsive via text
