This Suite has a large separate bedroom with a plush queen size bed. There is a flat screen TV in the bedroom with a closet and armoire. The living area is perfect for relaxing and reading or watching the 2nd flat screen TV. The Kitchen in this unit is full size with a large fridge and is stocked with pans, dishes, and utensils and includes a Coffee Maker, coffees, and various sugars and creamers.

Cozy place.
This was a great little place to stay a few days. Definitely better than a hotel. Cute cottage with all ya need. Couple of jacuzzis and nice view from them. Chose it for proximity to Kemah Boardwalk. The floor is soft between the bed and into the bathroom next to the toilet and floor tiles didn't fit right but covered them up with rugs. May consider repairing the soft foot before it gets worse and an injury occurs. Bed was very comfortable! Enjoyed the stay there.

The property is located in a great spot for fishing, The house is in great condition with a comfortable bed but one downside is that they don’t have cooking pans or anything to cook, but overall not a bad experience.

Short Fishing Trip
We really enjoyed our stay, it was a quick trip to try and get some fish to stock the freezer. The room was clean with plenty of square feet to relax in. Also they had COFFEE a must for me getting up early to fish. Also we love that they except pets, hate to always put the fur babies in the kennel. While we did not catch many keepers we did catch around 20 or so trout just none were big enough to keep. We did manage to catch one black drum that was around 20 lbs and over 3 foot long. Maybe better luck next time.

Short Vacation
We were looking for a place on the water where we could fish and just relax not far from Houston and pet friendly. We arrived Monday afternoon. Ordered dinner at The Noah’s Ark to pick up. It was so good we went there for dinner the next night. Tables far from others and outdoors facing the Bay. Monday morning we fished on the Pier. My husband caught a few fish which we tossed back. Caught fish for sport not to keep. On our way home, we went to a fish shop and bought red snapper and shrimp to take home with us, which was our original plan. We enjoyed our stay and hope to go back next Spring.
