The home is as shown in pictures. This is a small home with a separate private bedroom downstairs. Good for 2 couples and 2-3 children. We just used the home not the private bedroom. We took our boat and caught some drums by the bridge. Would recommend for families to stay here.

There was a few things in disrepair like one burner on stove didn’t but nothing major . We came here to fish and was disappointed there was not crab trap for use to use and most of the rod holders was broken . The lower bedroom was very humid . I think the ac in there might should be updated . I think the fishing there could be fantastic it you catch it right . We caught a 30 lb gar which gave us a tall tell . Good place I’ll be back .

Nice house with a boat slip for your boat! Private bedroom with a full bath down stairs separate from the main house. Huge patio upstairs and down for relaxing. Beautiful views from the front and back decks. Owner was fast to reply and the house was very clean! We will be back!

The house is fairly updated inside and had everything we needed for our stay. Nice bathroom upstairs and a nice large dining table to eat or play games. The decks are huge but need an umbrella to be able to tolerate the sun on a hot day. Plastic chairs were screwed down so we could only sit in one spot in full sun. A table and umbrella would make this a perfect spot so hopefully that will be added at some point.
The house was clean except for the pillows. When I stripped the bed linens I was pretty grossed out by the old stained pillows. The tiki bar area didn’t have the correct height stools so sitting at the tiki bar didn’t really work well.
The beds feel new but are really firm so my wife had trouble sleeping. If you like or need a soft bed you’d need a foam topper on these beds.
The AC blows cold and kept the upstairs comfortable. The downstairs room had a window unit that kept the room comfortable enough for sleeping.
We only used the living room tv but each room has a tv. The sofas are comfy and roomy.

It was everything and more definitely will be booking again. It was 6 adults and 2 furr babies.
The extra living space was perfect for my stepson and his fur baby and me and wife and two daughters up stairs and fur baby. Good fiahing off dock. Pleanty shade and breeze. Had ther memebers come stop by and eat bbq. We atill talkimg about it had a great time and good memories. Good thing is not to crowded on the beaches like surfisde. Littlw more layback family enviorment. But still can have a old good time bbq drinks. And some good muisc. #bestoneyet.
Thanks to Reubun and family

We had a really nice stay. Beautiful house! Was a little disappointed in beach items. There weren’t any beach towels or chairs. So that was disappointing as we flew in and couldn’t bring anything like that with us, but other than that had about everything we needed. Overall great stay!

Great Place!
My family spent the weekend here and it was an amazing place! The layout of the space and décor was so cool. My older kids are still talking about it. I would definitely recommend. The beaches near by are not crowded like they are in Galveston, which we loved. It is a quiet neighborhood, and very relaxing.

Great vacation spot
This was a great stay. The home was nice and clean. We caught fish and crab right off the dock. 3 different decks to sit on and watch the sunsets. Close to the beach within 2 min drive. Grill on-site worked great but is older. Also this location is a 30 minute drive in both directions from any meaningful grocery store. So make sure to load up on an groceries or supplies you need on the way in so you don’t have to make trips out. The beaches were spectacular. Great access and not crowded at all. This location is perfect for beach goers. Would highly recommend.

We stayed the last week of April. The house was very clean. The bed was so comfortable. Living room was inviting and a great place to relax. The kitchen was OK – but not a ton of counter space. We loved the location and the neighbors were friendly. The outside areas were somewhat neglected. We didn’t use the upper decks, despite the wonderful view, because there was no outdoor seating. The furniture was falling apart and the decks were uninviting. (I wanted to say depressing, but my husband thought that was too strong) The lower outdoor was great, after scrubbing the grill, chairs and bar. We even had to run the “tub clean” cycle on the washing machine (a 4 hour cycle – so it took 6 hours for 1 load of laundry). Rather than clean the washing machine, a capful of laundry soap was set out to mask the smell. All the towels smelled funny - so I was glad I cleaned the machine and rewashed them before using them. Overall, we rate it a 3 - average.

The Most Cheerful and Pleasant House
Having gone fishing and staying at canal homes several times in the last 20+ years with many of the same friends and reltatives, we unanimously decided during this last trip that La Bahia offers the most agreeable and confortable set up we could wish for.

Our family has been making trips to San Luis for many many years. Having relatives that own properties next to this location makes things even greater! The property is at one of the greatest places to stay in Treasure Island. A boat is not necessary for fishing. Most our family prefers night fishing and many fish can be caught right in front of house under light. For those that wanna just relax, inside or outside has plenty of space to enjoy. The views from decks can be amazing especially at sunrise and sunset. Great place to enjoy regardless of age. Definitely are looking forward to next trip there. Thank you Reuben for allowing us to enjoy your place and being available for anything needed.

The house is absolutely perfect! We came for a long weekend with friends and family and it was perfect! Everything is clean, well maintained and comfortable! Reuben is extremely responsive and helpful and even left us a welcome gift! The house is just minutes away from incredible fishing and the slip makes it so convenient!! We can't wait to come back again!!

We've stayed in many bay homes in this area. This one rates high with us.
Place was very clean and organized. Had all amenities needed for long stays. We were there for almost 3 weeks. Host was very accommodating even in the midst of Hurricane Nicholas. Place was a mess with debris and med everywhere. Host maintained contact and was there right after the roads opened to clean up. Says a lot about care and quality of Host. We will definitely stay again in the future and would recommed to anyone.

When we booked I had mentioned to Ruben we were coming down for my oldest daughter's birthday. When we arrived there was a birthday cake on the table for her, that was awesome and she was so excited. The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed for our 4 day stay. The downstairs are was the place to be with the tiki bar set up and the BBQ pit. The upper deck is where we went to watch the sunsets every night. The neighbors were all very friendly and fished with us everyday. Overall a great place with an awesome owner. We will definitely be back.
