Nice Vacation

My partner & I had a great vacation in Matagorda with our two dogs and we really enjoyed the rental. We were able to cook all of our own meals in the kitchen and we really enjoyed that. Only word of advice is to bring bug spray because the mosquitos are vicious! But we loved the beach and how nearby it was.

Father's Day trip

This place was perfect for our trip. The beach was a short walk and not crammed with people. Ice machine even close by, that was a plus. Everything was as listed and we brought our side x side/utv which was perfect for the longer beach explorations. The house was really comfy and equipped with what we needed. Being able to bring our dog that didnt have to weigh under 50lbs was awesome! He loved the beach runs and laying out on the deck. Thank your for sharing your home!

Lovely Beach Getaway

I enjoyed this sweet little beach house with my two golden retrievers. We had a lovely time! The house was comfortable and the walk to the beach was not bad! We ended up driving onto the beach because it was easier with the dogs. This little house was just perfect!!

Quiet, awesome little beach house

We drove down to Matagorda for a little getaway at the beach and the house was perfect! It is at the end of the street and very quiet - easy access to the beach on a trail through the sand dunes. We will definitely be back 😀

The owner was very communicative, and we love this property! The house was well furnished and stocked, and exactly what we wanted near the beach. There is a very short walk, and we walked over several times we will definitely be back! I did need to communicate a few times with the owner and he immediately got right back with me. Excellent stay!

Perfect beach house

We enjoyed our short stay . Location was great , we enjoyed taking our dogs to walk on the beach. Beach was absolutely beautiful, haven’t been to Matagorda in 20 years and was delighted with the nature park at beach entrance. I had just read about the beach there and wasn’t disappointed . it was mostly deserted very few people there on a week day. The little beach house was almost perfect. Tastefully decorated with great AC which made for some good sleep. The only thing that was missing were Toothpicks. 😂😂we’re looking forward to next time.

Quiet and Peaceful

We had a wonderful time. Loved the easy check in. Jim was a great host and responded to questions very quickly. The home is cute and clean and we were comfortable. It was the perfect size for my husband and I and our dog. It is at the end of a quiet street, and very peaceful to just sit and relax on the front porch. The views were even better than I expected. We brought in all of our groceries to avoid having to drive back into Bay City. We went to Buddy's once for shrimp, and Dollar General in Matagorda was convenient for odds and ends. Using the vintage stove was fun. It worked well. We used the dune path down to the beach, our dog enjoyed the walk. Be sure to wear shoes and plenty of mosquito spray for the trek through the dunes. The beach was never crowded, even on the weekend. Sometimes we were the only ones down there. That was amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Just Perfect

With nothing planned for a few upcoming days off and being in a position of not feeling beach sand between our toes in for some time, we decided we must remedy the situation. Having heard about Matagorda from friends, we quickly scanned the available rentals and found the little jewel named Casa de la Costa. There are grandeur homes, there are larger homes, there are homes beyond imagination, but Casa de la Costa looked perfect and was priced fantastically reasonable. The house is charming in its simplicity and far enough down the road that gave us an exclusivity feeling, too. There were literally nobody near by - an absolute blessing - after following the path over the dune, the beach appeared and was surprisingly wide with only a handful of people around - we felt we had a mile of beach front ownership for a mile both east and west. We found our perfect getaway spot that is close enough yet far enough from the daily grind in Houston. The house offers exactly what one;one needs tor a few days of rest and solitude. During our stay, my wife thinks we should sell everything and move based on the Casa de la Costa home and atmosphere, It is not a bad idea. The porch morning coffee with a view of the beach was perfect. In addition, Jim is an amazing host - he actually responds in a timely manner. Thank you Jim - thank you for a wonderful stay.

It was perfect for our quick getaway

The property was as pictured and it was perfect for mine and my husbands stay. It is a good walk through the dune to get to the beach and we decided it would be best to just drive to the public beach access which is right up the road from the house. We had a cooler and other things that would make it a difficult trek through the sand dune. The beach was beautiful and not crowded at all. The owner Jim was quick to answer any messages and help anyway he could. Overall I would definitely stay here again.
