    This is my second B&B to stay at and I felt at home here. This was our first time going to…read moreMatagorda and I knew the lodging was limited there. They don't even have a HEB or Walmart in the city. I like to compare cities that way in Texas lol! My coworker raved about the beach here so I wanted to check it out. I pulled up and noticed the Texas landmark. Samuel Rhoads Fisher built this home for his family in 1832. Such a beautiful house and cool that they reused all the original items as they can. Lots of photos of the past. If you enjoy history or appreciate it you will love this place. Peggy and Rik were wonderful hosts. I felt like home here and they made sure everyone was comfortable. Peggy gave us a tour of the house along with the history. Amazing stuff here!!! I love how each room had a theme and she was very detailed in her decorations. We stayed upstairs in room 3. The room was cozy and the bathroom was very clean. Love the little touches to the message and booklets in the room to help you enjoy the area. They even made a home cooked meal for breakfast. It was so good. Loved my stay here thanks to them.

    We love it here. Very homey. Attention to detail is incredible. Very personable. Hosts are so…read morewelcoming and accommodating. Family friendly! Delicious breakfasts. We've stayed at the Lodge and in the big house- both are just wonderful, comfortable, and have all we need for a lovely stay. We'll always stay here!!

    We stayed in the first floor suite in the main house for a week. It's in the back of the…read morebeautifully restored Victorian style home dating from 1910. The house is tastefully furnished in period furniture, and quirky knick knacks. While the suite was very comfortable, the view from the front porch was spectacular. You are literally across the street from the bay, and fishing from the public pier, with a fish cleaning station. The best part of the stay was the host - Paula. She does everything to make the stay comfortable, and memorable. She even enquired about our food preferences before we visited. My wife has extensive allergies, and yet she was able to prepare breakfasts that my wife tolerated, and enjoyed and were varied every day! She is an excellent cook, and makes everything to order for every guest every day. Try her delicious ham and cheese omelets. There is a snack bar with fruit, cereal, and coffee available all the time for snacks. Try the Peaceful Pelican - you'll like it! Say Hi to Paula from us.

The breakfast was delicious. The conversations with other guests added to our enjoyment. The bed was so comfortable that we both slept well. My only complaint was that the room had a window A/C unit which was loud and woke me up multiple times throughout the night. It could also have used a TV but aside from that it was a great place to stay and the view out the front door which is directly across from the water was beautiful. I would definitely recommend it for a place to stay.
