The Pretty Pelican Place 🌴 Texas coast retreat with RV hookups and coastal views. Available to family, friends & referrals only. Not open to public bookings

🌊 The Time Has Finally Arrived! 🌊

Many of you have been asking about Pretty Pelican Place, and we’re excited to finally begin sharing our little piece of paradise with others.

Our original plan was to open it as a traditional vacation rental, but we quickly realized that finding someone dependable to handle cleaning and turnovers between guests has been more challenging than expected. Rather than continue to delay, we’ve decided to try something different.

For now, Pretty Pelican Place will be available on a limited basis to family, friends, farm families, and trusted referrals. We are currently offering the space for those bringing their own RV, complete with water, sewer, and electric hookups.

Because we won’t have a turnover service, we’re relying on guests we know and trust to help us care for this special place by:
🗑️ Disposing of their own trash
🧹 Leaving the property as they found it
❤️ Treating it with the same care they would their own home away from home

What you’ll enjoy:
☀️ Beautiful sunrise and sunset views
🎣 Fishing and crabbing right from the dock
🌊 Easy access to the beach, bay, and Intracoastal Waterway
🐦 Incredible birdwatching opportunities near the renowned bird sanctuary
🚿 Outdoor shower after a day in the sun and sand
🚐 RV hookups with room to relax and unwind
🙌 Upstairs screened-in room perfect for gathering with family and friends
🍹 Serving bar with refrigerator for entertaining
🌴 Two open porches to enjoy your morning coffee or evening breeze
🪑 Plenty of seating to sit back, relax, and soak in the coastal views

This property has been a place of rest, laughter, and special memories for our family, and we’re looking forward to sharing it with people who will appreciate it just as much.

If you’re interested in a stay or would like information on availability and pricing, send us a message! We’d love to help you plan your coastal getaway.

Let’s talk about the… crappiest part of paradise 💩🐦
We’re proud to be located next to a beautiful bird sanctuary — but with that comes… well… nature’s confetti.

Yep, the birds (and sometimes crabs, raccoons, and their rowdy friends) like to leave their mark. We do our best to keep things clean, but sh #% happens — literally.

So if you see a little “gift” on the porch, rail, chair or deck:
✅ Feel free to sweep it,
✅ Hose it down,
✅ Kick it into the sunset…
Whatever works for you.

We appreciate your grace — just know you’re getting the full coastal wildlife experience, with front-row seats and maybe a few droppings. 😉

Thanks for understanding — and for laughing with us. Welcome to The Pretty Pelican Place, where the view is beautiful and the birds have no manners!
