My husband & I spent two days on this property! The location was convenient to great fishing spots. The shoreline was literally right across the street, a short walking distance away. The owner was nice & helpful. We will definitely make a return trip!

Costal Cottage Bay House

The Costal Cottage Bay House was a perfect spot for a needed get away, the location is definitely what makes this property. Seeing the sunrise in the bay every morning is worth every moment. The Point store is a 3 minute walk and the bay is also walking distance. The owner are definitely great host, I would definitely recommend if you planning to visit Palacios, Tx to try out the Costal Cottage Bay House.

Beautiful Coastline

What a lovely job the owner did on this little studio space. It truly does have everything you need. We enjoyed the outdoor seating provided and the cheerful indoor space. All small towns are struggling to get back on their feet right now, but Palacios offers much beauty along the well-maintained coastal path featuring fun playgrounds, picnic areas and water access. We felt sincerely welcomed by the owner of the cottage, local restaurateurs and shopkeepers.

Located in a quiet, scenic area. Excellent value. Just a few steps away from the waterfront of Tres Palacios Bay. Cottage is small but very comfortable. There is no conventional stove or oven; instead there are hot plates and a toaster oven -- but we were able to do all the cooking we wanted.
