Get Away from It All! Waterfront Home on San Antonio Bay! 300' Private Pier!

Our modest but comfortable, coastal home, we've named Pelicasa (Pelican + Casa!) is located in the small fishing community of Seadrift, Texas. Get ready to leave any stress & anxiety behind as you find yourself in an environment lacking traffic jams, traffic lights, restaurant lines and full parking lots.

Pelicasa is located outside of town at the end of Swan Point Road where it meets San Antonio Bay. This beautiful bay is one of the Gulf Coast’s best-kept secrets for great fishing & duck hunting. In fact, there are many well-seasoned fishing & hunting guides and guide services available in our area. Whether you’re a fisherman excited at the prospect of fishing from the convenience of a private pier during your stay, a hunter looking for ducks, deer or wild hog, an avid bird watcher & wildlife enthusiast or a person in need of unwinding & relaxation, our home is the place for you!

Here are some things to look forward to with your stay: front row sunset seats all for you; uninterrupted view of San Antonio Bay along with all it’s fascinating inhabitants like Pelicans & Dolphins; launch your boat right down the street at the Free Public Boat Ramp; and no noise except for the water lapping against the bulk head and the breeze rustling through the old palm tree.

There is a deck attached to the backside of the home facing the water and a deck out over the water from the bulkhead. Both offer a wonderful place to sit and take in the view. There is a large concrete pad in front of our home next to the barn that will accommodate a fairly large RV or boat trailer.

Our home offers sleeping accommodations for up to 10 people (including adults, teens or kids). However, please note: The nightly rate allows up to 6 people only. If your party includes 7 up to 10 people maximum, additional fees are required in order to allow for more time cleaning (changing bed linens, laundry, etc), to offset the additional wear & tear on our home (septic system, water well pump & equipment, etc) and to cover supply use (propane, drinking water, etc).
The master bedroom has a king sized bed, the guest bedroom has a king sized bed and the bunk room has 3 bunk beds for a total of 6 twin sized beds. Each bathroom has a standup shower and the home has a full size washer & dryer. The kitchen is equipped with a full size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, electric stove and coffee maker (both Mr Coffee and Keurig) along with the basic pots, pans, dishes & utensils. There is a bay view from the open concept kitchen, dining & living room as well as the master bedroom. In addition to the home itself, a very large barn is set up with a propane grill, flat top propane griddle, single propane burner for boiling pots or fish fries, a freezer for storing ice and table that seats 10. We have Roku for Guests with a TV in the living room, master bedroom, guest bedroom and barn. And we also have fiber optic cable wifi for your convenience.

This will be the 5th or 6th year in a row that my buddies and I stayed at Pelicasa. We head down every fall to do a blast & cast and can’t say enough good things about this property. Russel and Denise are the best hosts and the property has more charm and character than any other spot we have rented in the past. We can’t wait to get back down in December !!

Nice private accommodations on the bay. Loved the barn so guys can hang out & ladies had their space. House stocked well for preparing meals. Nice neighborhood easy walks to the boat ramp & park at the end of the street. Pier was fun to fish from day or night, beautiful sunset. I’d go back there to relax & get away!

This ground level bay home was so easy. Porch, patio, man cave, fishing pier and cool driftwood art made it all so perfect. Would definitely come back.

We had a great time at Pelicasa. This was our second time there, and we’ve enjoyed both very much. The house is clean and well stocked. Having the barn to cook in, hang out and store fishing gear is perfect. Communication with Denise is easy. She’s very quick to respond. We would’ve liked to stay another week, but duty called.

This place has everything! We have rented this place for many years and it never disappoints! We pretty much fish and spend all of our time in the barn playing games, relaxing and cooking!
