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.

Another fantastic stay at Pelicasa

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 !!

Perfect 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.

6 or 7th stay

We had a great time staying in this Bay house! We have stayed there 6 or 7 times and we will be back. The fishing is great and the location is perfect for frying fish and visiting with friends. The beds are comfortable and we always have everything we need. Denise is quick to respond if you have any questions. It’s one of our favorite homes away from home.

Great Birthday Celebration

A group of 6 set out for a wonderful long weekend in SEADRIFT to celebrate a Birthday!! We had a great time - this place has everything we need: An outdoor space for the guys to hang out; nice chairs on the back porch for the morning coffee; a wonderful yard for a few games of Corn-Hole; and a table big enough for our Surf & Turf dinner. This was our 3rd time here and it is always clean and so relaxing.

Coastal Getaway

We couldn't have been more pleased with this property! The house was clean and well equipped. The views were amazing and the fishing was non-stop. While it was fun to explore the surrounding area, just relaxing by the water was the best experience ever. We will definitely be back. Thank you!!!

Second visit

Second visit to pelicasa and it was mostly wonderful! There were lots of complications (broken dock, no fishing lights, alligators) due to the recent rains that were out of the owners control however, she did call me and give me the opportunity cancel without penalty the day before our trip. We couldn’t find another place short notice and went knowing about the dock. It was still relaxing and we made the best of it in the party barn. They’ve updated it since last summer and it’s got a great outdoor kitchen now which we really enjoyed!

We had the best time. We were able to easily launch our boat from the boat launch in the neighborhood and get into the bay, reefs, shallows quickly. Great location. The house was well equipped with everything we needed and the barn decorations were adorable and a great place to hang out with family and friends. The view of the bay from the deck was perfect. We had a great time!

Wonderful home for a cozy getaway.

This home is very cute and came equipped with everything we could have possibly needed during our weekend stay. It was very comfortable and had plenty of space for our party of 6 adults plus guests that visited during the day. The private pier was great but definitely needs some minor repairs which the owner is aware of and working on. Loved the barn for evening hang outs!
