Guys Trip

This house was a perfect place to stay for our group of guys. There was plenty of room for everyone, the house was clean and open. Love the patios and getting to fish off the back porch. We caught catfish, redfish, and speckled trout! A short drive to the beach and a H-E-B right down the road. Perfect house for big groups!
