Waterfront Paradise
Whether you're after a relaxing vacation, a serious fishing trip, or a weekend of coastal festivals — our home on Oso Bay puts the best of Corpus Christi at your back door. Cast a line from the yard, walk to the beach, then come home to a glass of wine as the sun melts into the water.
Explore Corpus Christi
We've stayed, eaten and fished our way through the coast. These are the spots we send every guest to.

Miles of soft Gulf sand minutes from the door. Surfers, shells and shoreline sunsets.

Fresh seafood, bayfront patios and Texas BBQ — all within a short drive.

From Sandfest to Mardi Gras, the Corpus Christi calendar is alive year-round.

Fishing at its Best
Bring your waders, kayak, or just a pole and a folding chair. The backyard of 1350 Sandpiper opens to some of the best speckled trout water on the coast. For trophy fish, our favorite local captains are a short ride away.

Booking terms
Clear, simple terms so you know exactly where you stand. Refund windows are counted from your check-in date.
60+ days before check-in
100% refundCancel two months or more ahead and you receive a full refund of everything paid, less the non-refundable booking deposit.
30–59 days before check-in
50% refundHalf of the total stay cost is refunded. The remaining balance may instead be applied as a date-change credit (see below).
Less than 30 days
No refundInside 30 days the dates are held exclusively for you and cannot be rebooked, so payments are non-refundable.
We sit on the Gulf Coast, and hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30. If a mandatory evacuation order is issued for Nueces County covering any night of your stay, or a named storm makes landfall in the Coastal Bend during your dates, you receive a full refund or a full-value credit — your choice, regardless of how close to check-in it happens. We strongly recommend travel insurance for everything a storm doesn't cover.
Refund windows are calculated from 4:00 PM Central on your check-in date. Refunds are returned to the original payment method within 5–10 business days. Long-term stays (September 1 – February 28, 30-night minimum) require 60 days' notice for any change to the departure date.
