Riverfront Houston House w/ Deck & Private Dock!

The scenic Gulf Coast is calling from this stilted 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom vacation rental home just 30 minutes from downtown Houston! Soak up the sun on the private dock, dine downtown, or simply enjoy the peaceful San Jacinto River from the spacious back porch. This waterfront 1,509-square-foot house comfortably sleeps 7, with room for 2 more, and boasts a tastefully furnished interior, beautiful kitchen, sleek granite countertops, and 2 decks with a charcoal and gas grill! -- THE PROPERTY -- Master Bedroom: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Living Room: Twin Sleeper Sofa | Additional Sleeping: Inflatable Mattress Nestled along the gorgeous San Jacinto River, you'll instantly feel at ease when you arrive at this riverfront residence! A spacious dock, second-story porch, and 2 spacious decks make it almost impossible to stay inside at this coastal escape. Inside, the home features a bright and open interior tastefully furnished with high-end furniture, hardwood flooring, and plenty of comfortable nooks to relax in. Unwind on the plush L-shaped sofa in the living room after a sun-filled day and watch your favorite movie on the mounted flat-screen cable TV. With a beautiful yard, multiple spots to dock your boat, and prime swimming space, it's hard to picture a better place to beat out the Texas heat! Fix yourself a refreshing afternoon cocktail and gaze out at the lush riverfront views from the comfort of the porch. The property also has roll-up enclosures making this the perfect year-round spot for relaxation. When you start to get hungry, make your way to the kitchen to prepare a delicious home-cooked meal. If you're more of a grill master than an iron chef, head outside to utilize the charcoal or gas grill. Enjoy a memorable family-style feast at the main dining table or bring your meal outside to for an al fresco dining experience on the lower deck! If you prefer to stay dry, find a cozy spot along the riverbank and gaze out at the star-filled Texas sky. When it's time to call it a night, retreat to one of the 3 spacious bedrooms to enjoy a fantastic night's rest. The master bedroom offers an en-suite bathroom and a cloud-like king bed while the other 2 bedrooms have cozy queen mattresses. This property can sleep 7 guests in beds and on the sleeper sofa, but the maximum occupancy is flexible for up to 2 additional guests with use of the inflatable air mattress provided. -- THE LOCATION -- This riverfront house is in the perfect location with easy access to Galveston Bay as well as the downtown area. Whether you brought your own boat or are renting one, the San Jacinto river feeds directly into the Galveston Bay for the days you want to fish, swim, or explore! On the night's you're not cooking at the house, make the easy 20-30 minute drive into Houston to enjoy a meal at one of the top-notch eateries the city has to offer. Some local favorites are Uchi, Oporto Fooding House & Wine, Ibiza Food & Wine Bar, and Brennan's of Houston. The property sits directly across from the street from the Rio Villa Nature Trail and across the river from the Banana Bend Nature Preserve. Enjoy a morning jog on the Rio Villa trail or bring your fishing pole to cast a line in from the park's pier!
