The lodge rooms were very comfortable with queen size beds and luxury Marriott bedding. Super nice for high class hotel, much less a fish camp! Then on Tuesday we experienced a fantastic day of fishing with Captain Jeremy, who is a first class guide. We went home with a nice mess of fish, including: red fish, black drum, and blue catfish. We caught many more fish, with some too small to keep and some too large to keep, including a 31" long red fish. We will be back that is a fact. We highly recommend Bay Flats Lodge for a great experience.

The lights on the water were excellent, but all I was pulling up on the sabiki were tiny bait fish -- piggy perch, small whiting, you name it. Basically running a daycare for baby fish under those lights. Dropped $20 on croaker and got nothing out of it. Even tried the artificial fish bites, and still just fed the little guys. Didn't see anyone else land anything worth bragging about either. Honestly, just way too many people for not much action.

The RV park also has a very nice Rec Hall with a kitchen, shuffle board and a private boat launch and small marina to keep a boat at. Only 4 minutes from the white sands of Magnolia Beach and 3 from the Indianola Fishing Marina that has live music every weekend in the summer for free. Powderhorn is the perfect place to stay for a weekend to enjoy the world famous fishing or to stay a few months on a longer contract job. The community it's in is quite and friendly. Another bonus is that Mike the owner is always available with a hand shake and a smile. Couldn't imagine staying anywhere else in the Port LaVaca area now.

We don't drink either, lol but the music was nice, food was delicious. We had the crab cake, chips with salsa & queso, he had the cheeseburger and fries, and I had the shrimp taco. Nothing disappointed. Lived watching the fishermen do their thing. Would visit again!

We looked around Houston and everything was booked or rained out! So we found Goose Island and it had decent reviews! We decided to book a campsite for one night- our campsite was 201. When we arrived my goodness!! I've never seen so many deer - one minute outside of the park, there were about 5 deers hanging out- not scared of me or my car or the noises. It was beautiful! When we entered the park, we first was looking for our campsite and drove in many circles- it was in the "wooded area" so it was a bit hard to find! When we arrived it was around 3pm And we started setting up camp. I am thankful the parking was right in front of the campsite but also that whole area I think 201-204 Is shared. I was lucky it was Christmas so no one else Booked the area next to us but it wouldn't have been as fun if others did! We stayed overnight- everything went well as planned! One thing I didn't like the restrooms were driving distance or a longer walk away but this was an amazing weekend getaway for us! In the morning we checked out the pier area. It was nice and very different than our campsite area! Highly recommend this park even for a daytime park!

It's an antonishingly old live oak tree with a massive trunk and spreading branches. During our visit, the land under and around the tree was a carpet of wildflowers. Goose Island State Park is smaller than some state parks we have visited but it's full of amenities. There are lots of camping spots for tents and RVs. There are short hiking trails that showcase the local flora . . . but be sure to bring your bug spray if you come during the warmer months. The pier that stretches into Aransas Bay has spectacular views, and the wetlands welcome many types of birds.

Six of us arrived in Port O Conner on a Friday night at Captain Bob Hills guest house and Saturday morning he shuttled us via private boat the 4.5 mile bay ride to the north shore of the island. Capt Bob told us the history of the island on the boat ride over and if you are also intrigued by history I highly suggest you you read the history of the island on the website www.matagordaisland.com in short the land that is now a state park was seized by the government from the original settlers during WWII. On the island there is no longer any permanent residents but you can camp by permit, there are numerous hiking trails and lots of birds and other wildlife and fishing (we caught enough fish for 3 dinners for 6 -red fish and a baby shark). On the N shore is a lighthouse from the 1800's and a grave site of the original settlers. The Island is managed by Texas Parks and Wildlife and if you want to camp you need to get a permit through them. This island is a must visit for any trip to the coast.
