Port Bolivar House | Seahorse Sea – Waterfront, Private Dock, Gulf & Bay Views, Sleeps 16

3 Bedroom House in Port Bolivar, Bolivar Peninsula

Welcome to Seahorse Sea — it's always a great day to be at the beach!
Seahorse Sea is a true waterfront retreat on a quiet canal near the east end of the Bolivar Peninsula. Launch at the subdivision boat ramp at the end of Mabry, then tie up at your own private dock behind the house. The home sits between the sand and the water — a short hop across the highway to a wide, uncrowded beach, with the dock, patio, and canal out back all your own.
We built it up high on purpose, for a Gulf, bay, and Intracoastal Waterway panorama from nearly every room and deck, with barges rolling by and pelicans over the canal. This was our family's beach home for years — sunrise over the Gulf from the master deck, sunset over the bay from the rear deck, long afternoons crabbing off the dock. Now we share it with you.
Inside, the open kitchen, dining, and living area is bright and wrapped in windows, with granite counters and seating for twelve. The home sleeps 16: a master suite with a king, TV, walk-in closet, and spa-like ensuite (jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, double sinks); a queen-over-queen bunk room; a second room with two queen-over-queen bunks; and two living-room daybeds. The bunks are genuinely comfortable — grown-ups sleep as well as the kids. There's a full hall bath and a laundry room with a washer and dryer.
We provide starter coffee, hand soap, bar soap, toilet paper and paper towels, plus laundry detergent for two loads, two dryer sheets, and dishwasher soap for two loads. One of those laundry loads is meant for the towels at checkout. We do not provide food, condiments or spices.
Downstairs is made for waterfront living: an enclosed rinse-off shower, a large sandstone patio with two tables, a wind-protection wall, and your dock for grilling and fishing. Part of canal life is the wildlife — jumping fish, blue crabs, and now and then an alligator gliding past — so please don't swim in the canal, watch children and pets near the water, and never feed or approach the wildlife.
Parking fits five vehicles, or four plus a trailer if you are bringing a boat, between the driveway and the space under the house. Please do not park on the street or on the grass, and please do not park on the right side of the driveway, as that is the septic drain field.
