| We stayed at the Texas Court House for our Family Christmas 2009. The house and amenities were perfect for our family. There was plenty of room for everyone--2 nice living spaces, balconey and patio views of the water and the pasture land (a couple of deer were even spotted), a playground for the kids, a pier for fishing and feeding the seagulls, and even a game room for the kids. The weather was cold and misty, but it did not deter us from having a great time. Our family weekend included my dad (age 74) and my grandkids (the youngest is 1 1/2)and everyone found something to do and enjoy. The house is decorated beautifully and both kitchens have just about everything you could need. I had planned to decorate a bit for the holidays, but was pleasantly surprised to find the house already decorated. (Granddaughter Madelyn loved Santa and the flamingos.) It is also a very short trip (about 15 minutes) into Port Lavaca to a WalMart. Our stay was very enjoyable and my 4 kids and 4 grandkids are already talking about checking into renting it for next year. Thanks for allowing us into your home for the opportunity of building memories for our grandkids! |

| My siblings and I stayed at this remarkable home from July 18 through July 26. The Texas Court House is more than the owners advertise. It is truly a home away from home. The home was very clean and well furnished. The atmosphere of this retreat fit all of our needs ranging from true fishing experiences to fun with the little ones on the play ground equipment out back. We watched beautiful sunsets and sunrises on the pier. The porpoises came within 20 feet of the pier several times, entertaining all that were present. We launched our boat at a nearby boat ramp and enjoyed the experience of the bay in many ways. We followed several porpoises, watching them majestically play in the water. We found a sand beach just a few miles out in the bay that yielded a playground for the little ones and fishing for the older ones. The house was furnished with everything that one could dream of from games to home entertainment systems. There was more than adequate room to prepare a meal for more than 20 individuals without having to rush or get in each other's way. The beds were comfortable to all. There is a small beach just at the start of the pier, which provided hours of fun and enjoyment for the little ones to collect shells and play in the water. Their were kayaks to be used by the guests, but the wind was a little too strong most of the days for unexperienced kayakers to attempt. We visited with several of the locals and learned when the fish were biting and where to go in the boat. Our entire family created wonderful memories during this stay. To say the least, this is truly a magnificent location to rent, very reasonably priced and strategically located to obtain all of your personal needs. Thank-you for allowing us to rent the Texas Court House. See you next year. |

We had the best of times! Really wonderful accommodations and the gentlemen could not say enough about the beautiful surroundings and accommodations. You have a wonderful home on a wonderful piece of land and I would recommend the trip and stay at your home to anyone. We may plan to make this an annual event!!

| This was a great space for our large family. We had grandparents to grandbabies and everyone had plenty of room to relax and have fun. The house is spacious and well equipped, including two full kitchens and master suites. There was very little that was not provided that we wished we had on hand. The large decks and porches offered amazing views of sunrises and sunsets as well as plenty of room and shade for lounging all day (or night) long. This is a great spot to get away from the noise and crowds of suburbs and cities. |

| Wow. Great home... great stay. Decks front and rear. Beautiful views on a large private lot. Would recommend this to anyone wanting to escape city and work. Guiet peaceful neighborhood. Fun on the water. Owners offered lots of toys and personal amenities. My wife and I just kicked back, relaxed and enjoyed. Would not recommend to folks looking to keep "city life" kicked in! This is the real deal!!! |

| This property is as nice in person as it is in it's pictures. We had Dolphins come within 15' of pier two days in a row. Lots of shells on beach - kids had a ball. Caught several fish right off pier. Owners have created a nice guide of area attractions. We had one minor issue with property when we showed up. Owners responded and corrected it immediately. Thank you. |
