PORT O'CONNOR FISHING LODGE

Rich Southern Hospitality!

Welcome to our Port O'Connor fishing lodge with the best full-time guides. Castaway Lodge is your home away from home. Centrally located in Seadrift, Texas, The Port O'Connor fishing lodge encompasses 5,000 square feet of comfort and privacy in the heart of Seadrift. Castaway Lodge was built in 2007 specifially designed to meet the demands of duck hunting and fishing guests and is nestled among our large established trees on a half acre that's close to everything in "Seadrift". Come experience the "spirit of Southern Hospitality".

You're Here, Get Comfortable

The Main Lodge includes the main Kitchen and dining area and a large Great Room with leather sectional and sofa, flat panel LCD satellite TV, Granite countertops, soaring ceilings, along with the finest art and taxidermy work with local species from the area.

The Quarters Building is directly adjacent to the Main Lodge and consists of four private bedrooms and four private "in room" bathrooms and a large Great Room. The Great Room offers relaxed conversation and is centrally located with leather sofas, LCD flat panel satellite TV, and a wet bar, refrigerator, and microwave. If mixing business with pleasure, it is the perfect backdrop for entertaining clients, meetings, and team building.

Feels Like Home, No It's Better Than That!

A focal point at The Lodge are the large covered areas including a 1,500 square foot wraparound outdoor kitchen with a "fireside conversation lounge" and dining area. Porches have a Southern elevation to capture our dominate Southerly winds during the summertime and are sheltered from North winds in the Winter just like we planned it!
