This place was perfect for our weekend fishing trip. The pier did not disappoint, we caught flounder, black drum, croaker and catfish. My son especially loved it. Pet friendly and has a fenced in yard so our dogs could run freely. Clean and comfortable, with a beautiful view. We really enjoyed our time there.

Excellent Choice

This was an awesome place. It was a great location, clean, quiet, had all of the needed amenities, and the owners had great communication. If you like to fish, this place had a private fishing pier, and we caught redfish, sheephead, flounder, and even crabs. Would stay again.

Single level, very open space. Everything is there for a long stay. Long pier for the fisherman. The last night I caught a 39”, 30lb Redfish on crab. Will try to stay again next time we are down.

This was an exceptional experience! The home was inviting, clean, and well equipped inside and out. The pier and back patio set the stage for fun and relaxation and the fishing was such an added attraction. Evan, our host was a great communicator and made the entire stay simple. Highly recommend a stay at this gem!

Great short trip

Really enjoyed our stay of 3 nites. Would've liked more time there if it had been possible. Honestly was the best stocked vacation home we have stayed in. Ran into a mess of fish including one that nearly broke our pole and actually straightened out the hook. Can't wait toll the next time. Thanks Evan

A perfect spot for a quick getaway and fishing

Upon arrival didn't seem like much however the pier offered an excellent time fishing if that's what you're into. We are able to catch some bull red as well as surprisingly flounder. The house was well equipped in very clean. Everybody had a place to stay sleep and enjoy some rest and relaxation. Contact to the property owner was a breeze and extremely pleasant. Would not hesitate to rent this place again do another fishing trip.

We really enjoyed our stay! The house was clean, comfortable and super-relaxing to just chillax. And loved that we could take our dog - she had a blast too. Evan was great about providing info about the house as well as nearby restaurants, etc. We especially loved sitting in the backyard enjoying the bay views and the large ships passing through. We did some fishing and caught a bazillion croaker, hardheads and a really nice black drum. The pier was hard for me because there arent any rails, but my family didn’t have a problem so maybe I’m just weird. Overall would highly recommend! Thanks Evan!

Great getaway!

The property was everything advertised. Nice, clean, private place with good sized fenced yard with private pier. Would have liked hand-rails on pier walkway. The only negative was being surprised by the lawn crew showing up unannounced. I was fishing out on the pier and my wife relaxing on the covered patio when a guy suddenly appears in the back mowing. Other than that, it was a very enjoyable stay. We would do it again.

Beautiful sunsets on the Bay

Our family had a great stay with crabbing, fishing, beautiful sunsets, & relaxing on the bay. The only 2 things I can complain about is the blender didn’t work. We had to order ourselves, & have it delivered to the house when we arrived. We do like to enjoy a cold cocktail while on vacation. And I didn’t like the large trash can out front of home, full of smelly garbage from the previous booking before us. We did notify the owner of these 2 complaints. The beds & furniture was comfy & cozy. I like the layout of the inside & decor.,the cold a/c, very nice covered patio-outdoor sink, the large gated grassy back yard, & of course the long fishing pier with beautiful sunsets. A huge bonus was having plenty of nice fluffy bath towels, toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, coffee, & plenty soap. ⭐️Much appreciated! Thank you for sharing your vacation home with us. The Wilson family had a wonderful & memorable Fourth of July 🇺🇸 Holiday in San Leon.
