Beautiful off grid dispersed camping on Lavaca Bay, steps away from the beach and marsh. Sunrises and sunsets are unobstructed from this location. Quiet and peaceful, yet just close enough to the local marina, shopping, and restaurants. Easy access to camp from Ocean Drive. Zero overhead hazards on property, ex. no overhead power lines or tree limbs. Excellent fishing on both the Lavaca Bay/ beach side, and the marsh side of the property. Bring your own kayak or small boat. Launch from the property or anywhere else near by. Shore fishing can be excellent at times. Bird enthusiasts will love the Magic Bird Sanctuary located directly behind the property. Bring your binoculars to get closer to the action. If you are looking for space, relaxation, beautiful scenery and the chance to wet a line, this may be the place for you. Carly's Bait and Boondocking will soon have a small bait shop. Until then, your host will provide you with bait, fish, and crab traps that will be located in the marsh. Feel free to take as much bait from the traps until the actual bait shop is up and running. We are just starting here, and more amenities will be available soon. Until then, please enjoy your stay, and "tight lines" to everyone.
If you happen to be staying at Carly's Bait and Boondocking, and need a generator, please feel free. However, due to us striving for a dark quiet sky, we ask for no generators if any other guests are on property. We are looking for all customers to have a quiet safe stay at Carly's.
Thank you

For fishing enthusiasts, Lake Texana offers a diverse range of fish species, including catfish, bass, and crappie, thanks to regular stocking efforts aimed at enhancing recreational fishing opportunities.

We had a great experience here. We stayed 3 nights, fished off the dock everyday & at night with the light. Host was very sweet & communicative. We wanted to relax so being in a quiet neighborhood was better for us than a busy, loud RV park.

Camp 1 is a nice site sitting at the end of the property above the river. It is secluded and peaceful with a fire ring and table. James is a really nice host who met us at the gate and escorted us to the site. I would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing site for boondocking that has good swimming and fishing available. Victoria is only about 20 minutes away as well.

We had such a great time here! It was perfect for the 2 of us, plus our dog. It was very comfortable and cozy, and we found a few good restaurants with patios so we could take our dog. She got to run around and play, and we got to relax in the hammock chairs and enjoy the fresh air. Wouldn't change a thing and will definitely be back! Jennifer was so nice and accommodating, and gave us a lot of info about where to go and what we could do. Absolutely recommend this place 1000%!

Weekend Trip to Matt B.’s Land Treehouse!!
This trip was mega cool. The tree house was super comfortable. To everyone considering there I have a message: there is a property full size bed in the tree house. The photos make it look like it's a tiny sofa and you can't sleep on it, but in reality it is a proper bed big enough for two people. Over all I would give this place 5 out of 4 stars.

My wife and I had an amazing time at The Magnolia. Jennifer and her husband were super friendly and treated us with kindness. They greeted us and gave us a short intro.
The set up in the tent house was full of thought and essentials. Flashlights, towels, matches, and first aid kit. They also had some outdoor games. Along with coffee cups and a French press! ☕️
We also bought some eggs and they were DELICIOUS! The eggs are a must! It completes the experience. 🍳
Our dog had an amazing time outdoors and really enjoyed his time out there! 🐾

I can't wait to return. This is a quiet, beautiful, scenic area, and Marc is a gracious and helpful host. If you like to walk, the road is quiet, scenic and perfect for strolling or getting in some cardio. The bay looks like the Gulf of Mexico with its long, expansive view, and the morning sunrise is over that water body. Gorgeous coastal beauty is in every direction. I felt safe and at home on this piece of paradise and the surrounding region.
