Camelot

We absolutely love staying at the Camelot In Caplen on the Bolivar Peninsula in Texas. The location is the best all around because it is so close to the water and you aren't surrounded by neighbors. It is very private. The beach in front isn't crowded. The house has great views from the windows too. You can sit on the back balcony and see the ocean and sit on the front balcony and see the intercoastal waterway. The house is clean and designed with an open concept. Plenty of room for my husband and I along with our family who came to stay with us one of the weekends we were there. We stayed almost three weeks and still weren't ready to leave. Cobb Real Estate is the absolute best to work with. They go above and beyond. Airbnb and VRBO don't give you a beach bag and the best lip balm ever. We have stayed here several years and never once have we had any problems. The truth is I really don't want to review this property because it is a hidden gen and I am afraid to get the word out in fear of not being able to find it available when we want it. LOL But I promise you will love Cobb Real Estate and the Camelot.

This was a great location. The only issues that we had were there were no supplies on site to use to clean with (dust pan, etc.) I will definitely stay here again.

The pictures on the website don’t do this property any justice!! This was our first stay at Camelot but won’t be our last. The location is great, furniture is comfy, fully stocked with just about anything you could need. Love the fence and size of yard; just wish the sticker burrs weren’t everywhere!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Camelot! This is the second time we've chosen this location and it's by far out favorite. There are no immediately adjacent neighbors so it feels private. The furnishings are comfortable and the appliances seem relatively new and in good working order. The house is spacious enough that you never feel on top of one another. We'll definitely be back!

Great nice view please with my stay.

Camelot was a perfect fit for a stay on the beach right by the water.

This is the 3rd year in a row that we have stayed at the Camelot. The location and view are the best you can find on the Bolivar. The people at Cobb are very nice and easy to work with. We plan to stay here again next year and every year after if we can.

Great view and quiet area

My family just returned from a 3 day stay at Camelot. This house is right on the beach and very private. My husband, myself and 2 adult children had plenty of space in the house. Our 2 small dogs enjoyed the house too. The house is close to the High Island bird sanctuaries and is a great location for birders. I made 3 trips to the sanctuaries to view migrating warblers and the egret/spoonbill rookery. This is our second time in this house and we will return.

We had an incredible time staying at the Camelot on the Bolivar Peninsula. The house was in the perfect location, just steps to the water. What a view from every window in the house! We could see the ocean from the back balcony and the ships and barges on the intercoastal waterway from the front balcony. The beach was peaceful. We felt safe on the beach at all times. We rented golf carts and explored the peninsula. We built a fire at night on the beach. We found so many great shells, not just ordinary shells, the kind you search to find the perfect one, just like the Camelot. While it wasn't perfect, it was perfect for us. It was our favorite place to stay so far. We were able to celebrate our 30 year wedding anniversary and still remain Covid responsible. We could just walk back and forth from our house to the beach and not see anyone if we didn't want to. With no close neighbors, I could play my guitar and sing on the balcony without worrying if I was bothering anyone. The place was affordable and everything we could want in a beach house. The only complaint I would have is that the internet and cable wasn't very good. But that ended up being a blessing to escape for a while. I could still get internet on my phone in case I needed it. Cobb Real Estate was great to work with. We hope to stay at here again next year. I highly recommend the Camelot.

Perfect beachfront house! Quiet beach with less traffic and beach goers than Crystal beach. We found plenty of treasures including sharks teeth, sea glass and intact seashells. Loved the fenced in yard for our fur babies. Although a two bedroom, the living area and kitchen are spacious and the second bedroom is huge. Kitchen has ample cookware. Camelot is our new favorite.

- Alysa C. from Lufkin, Posted: 07/04/2020

We had a wonderful time at Camelot. The fenced yard was a big plus for our fur babies. We enjoyed being beach front and the beautiful view. The furniture was outdated but comfortable. Everything was nice and functioned well. The layout of the home was enjoyable for our two families. We really had a great time and would definitively stay again.

Good rental

My husband and I have rented Camelot for two weeks in May for the last six years now. We love relaxing on the wraparound deck and watching all the action. We are already looking forward to 2020.

My family and I enjoyed the house a lot. Great location peace and quiet.

Loved the house! Perfect location!

We were a little nervous about this house, with some of the furnishings being outdated and not the prettiest (My first thought was Golden Girls called - they want their couch back lol). However, I will say that the sofas and chairs in the living room, and the beds were very sturdy and super comfortable. I get it now. They don't make things like they used to. We ended up having the best time and may never go to Galveston for our yearly rental again. The walk down to the beach was awesome, not having to go around or down the street. I don't have a single complaint about the house, we enjoyed every minute of our stay. It would be nice to have a covered area on the deck, but you can make it work by moving around to let the house block the sun at different times of day.
Cobb Real Estate was very accommodating. After renting through a large rental agency in Galveston many times, and also renting directly from owners via VRBO, I am impressed with Cobb. They worked with us on a last-minute, same-day reservation, which is not easy. They provided plenty of towels, which makes a huge difference when you've got little kids in and out of the beach and then bath all day. We will definitely be back to Cobb and probably Camelot too!

Very nice house. Cobb was very attentive to issues and prompt.

- John M. from Georgetown, Posted: 05/01/2018

We had a great time. Great area. Kitchen as everything you could possible need.

- Dianna W. from Cypress, Posted: 04/24/2018

Love the Camelot, secluded and awesome view.

- Julia S. from Pflugerville, Posted: 07/15/2017

We found this beach home to be very nice for the money. You can tell the people that own it actually care about the people who stay there. Utensils, dishes, pots and pans, etc... were all there. TV's in every room. Internet worked well, had to unplug it and plug it back in a couple times to re-boot it, but no big deal. Very foggy in the month of December at this beach, but that is more of an FYI than anything to do with the house. Overall my wife and I were very happy and would stay here again. The only thing you need to remember is to bring your own outdoor grill. The one there is like you would see at a state park.

My experience at the Camelot was absolutely husband and I was married there and it will forever be special to us ..

- Devin B. from Roundrock, Posted: 11/15/2016

Very nice great view absolutely loved it fantastic views

- Archie B. from Longview, Posted: 06/02/2016

The Property description was was clean and very private. We would recommend this home to friends & family. We had the perfect vacation at this home. Cobb real estate was friendly & easy to work with!

Very friendly & helpful people.

Very nice, clean, secluded house. Great location right on the beach. Will definitely recommend and will be staying there again!

- Leigh D. from Terrell, Posted: 08/11/2015

Just losing both parents in 5 days we were looking for privacy and quiet. This house has that. It was nice, we have stayed in alot of rentals this one was the least personal one. But having the beach right at the gate and not having anyone around ( except for lawncare ppl at 8) was nice.

We have rented Camelot 3 times, and it is the perfect beach house for us and our dogs. The wrap around deck, fenced yard and free WIFI, plus being beach front, are what brings us back. We always wish we could stay longer!

- Mary Liz S. from Bastrop, Posted: 05/20/2015

Lovely private place to get away from city living. I have rented this house 3 x only problem is yard gate from road is hard to open & close.

- Linda J. from Fort Worth, Posted: 05/02/2015

This house is an excellent & affordable front row beach destination. It is relatively isolated, very few houses around. Has what ever you need in the kitchen, not too many personal 'chatchkis' sitting around so it is easy to keep clean and clean up when you leave. Close enough to The Big Store and other restauraunts to not have to bring a lot from home....very clean beach with direct access from gated yard. Did not have any seaweed this time!!!! You can be the king of this castle and not go broke! I have rented this house 2 times, once for a teacher/girls weekend and once for a family week......we begged to stay just one more night!
