About this property

BIG FISH LODGE

Brand new house perfect for big groups or multiple families! Built in 2022, Big Fish Lodge is a beautifully decorated house just 3 blocks from the harbor and minutes to the Gulf. You’ll love how nice, new and clean this home is. The bedrooms are large and spacious, the house is gated, secluded and very private , over 1 acre property. There is nothing in Matagorda that compares. The house very comfortably sleeps 18. Outside you’ll find a covered pavilion with plenty of seating and a grill. Property is completely surrounded by bamboo for full privacy, feels like your in a tropical jungle. There is a guest house next door that can be rented as well. We expect shoes to be taken off and spills/messes to be cleaned up. Extra cleaning fees will be applied as needed. Guest house next door is also available for bookings, and is sometimes occupied . This is not your party house, this is my home so respect it.

Great layout

Great property. The house was very clean. Great layout. Only thing that was somewhat strange is that the manager lives on the property. No issues but would have been good to know when booking.

Weekend fun

First Make sure you find the binder with all the rules and regulations and read that before you do anything. Well to start the house was clean and the AC works very well. Bathrooms very spacious and the showers are awesome. Plenty of room and beds, kitchen and dinning area is very spacious. Living room nice seating big TV. On the downside we had two 1 1/2 year old grandbabies with us which was not ideal for some of the stuff that was there on the shelves but we managed. That was 14 of us we all had to come down at different times so there were five vehicles, parking was a little tight but we managed, there's a side gate entrance that has rough poured concrete managed to park the trucks over there it is a little rough but other than that everything was great.
