The House is centrally located to many famous Texas birding hotspots. The Bolivar Peninsula is right at the center of the action. The entire peninsula is part of the Great Coastal Birding Trail, which plays a vital role as a habitat for migrating birds. There are bird sanctuaries all over the area as well as a nearby national wildlife refuge. Bolivar Peninsula is host to numerous bird sanctuaries along with the nearby national Anahuac Wildlife Refuge. So grab your camera and get ready for a great coastal excursion that will have you spotting spoonbills, kayaking amidst great blue herons and observing alligators, all just minutes from your Bolivar beach chair

Fishing off Bolivar Peninsula is like no other. Take a short stroll down our private access to the beach and you will be right on top of one of the best fishing spots on the Bolivar Peninsula
Fishing in the surf is a relaxing, rewarding experience. Take your rod and reel, some bait (live or dead), or a mirror lure, wade out to the waist-deep water on the second sand bar, and toss your line out and see what happens. Surf fishing is a great way to spend a day in the sun, catching some rays and some fish.

House is also located close to Rollover Pass in Gilchrist, Texas, is a great fishing spot near East Galveston Bay, the intra-coastal, and Rollover Bay. There, you can reel in some spectacular redfish, flounder, croaker, drum, and more for the ultimate feast during your vacation.

Right on the Beach

Really enjoyed our stay. The house is in perfect condition and as close to the water as reasonably possible. Loved the comfy beds. Watched streaming movies each night on the large TV. Great wifi. Sat on the porch watching the birds and the waves. Will definitely go back!

The Perfect Getaway!

We had an amazing stay at this property! Upon our arrival, we were blown away by the ocean views in such a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. The house itself was very clean and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location was the best part—on the beach, allowing us to enjoy morning shelling and walks on the sand.The host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, ensuring that we had everything we needed. If you're looking for the perfect beach getaway, this is the place! I highly recommend this property and we will most definitely be back!

Just the best place to stay in Bolivar!

We have stayed in Bolivar 3 times now. This is by far our best experience and accommodations. The communication with David was immediate and helpful. Even when our daughter forgot some items in a closet, David was on it right away.We like to leave properties as we find them if not better. We picked up blown in trash from the dunes without stepping in the dunes.We created a path to the beach to help us navigate us (and the neighbors) the best route to the beach, protecting the dunes. The house is well equipped. Everything you could possibly need. Beds are comfortable. The house was spotless.Most of our stay we have the beach, moonrises and sunsets to ourselves.We will make this place our new annual place to stay. Thank you David for making our stay perfect.

Foggy Weather - Fun in the Sand anyway

Grandchildren were on break for Mardi Gras (they live in S. Louisiana) I tried to tell them that they wouldn't be able to swim the first week of March, but they insisted we go. We played games, cooked, made several trips down to the beach. There are a lot of stairs and didn't realize until we had hauled everything up that there was a lift. Sure made leaving easier. The house sounds small when you read the square footage, but it is very roomy and comfortable. Spotlessly clean and freshly painted. Do no hesitate to stay here - can't beat the access to the beach.

Great Stay!

Overall our family really enjoyed our stay. The home is located right on the beach, you cannot get any better. We really enjoyed the quieter area of Gilchrist, although that may not be for everyone. The home was very nice and had all the amenities we needed. Our only reason for the 4 star review is due to the weather during our stay. We ended up without power for about 2 days, which is something we’ve learned can be common in the area. It definitely complicated things for us. The house only had 1 very dim flashlight. We had to go to the Big Store and buy a flashlight (which were very spendy), lighters, candles, cooler and ice. We lost all our freezer foods. Thankfully the rest of our family hadn’t arrived, otherwise the additional expense of going out to eat would have been a lot.

Great Stay!

This was our second year staying at this property. The views are amazing and the house is clean and well maintained. We highly recommend this property. David, our host, was on top of communication with us. This year brought a lot of questions due to Francine making its way through the Gulf. We appreciate all of the help and advice he provided. We can not wait to book our next trip.
