We just spent last weekend at A laughing horse lodge once again. We come once a year and stay in the same room every time. We just adore this place. The owners are super nice as well as all of the other's employeed there. They are so dog friendly and the rooms are always clean and well maintained. We just... More

Great place to stay in Port Aransas especially if you are bringing your dog(s). Cottages are clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. My dog and I enjoyed our three day stay and will definitely return in the future.

We had a wonderful stay at A Laughing Horse Lodge and will definitely be returning. The staff is very nice, the facilities are very clean and cozy, and the atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing beach vacation. They are very pet friendly and even left bowls and treats for our pup. The cottages are pretty roomy and each unit has... More

We have stayed here 4 times now and each time we grow more determined that this is the only place we will ever stay in Port A. We brought our 2 dogs and everything you could want was provided and all we had to do was enjoy the beach. The rooms are clean and no odors whatever. Beds comfortable and... More

We stay here for the sand festival. It is a very dog friendly place. Cottages are fairly roomy. It is an older place, but we like it a lot. Walking distance to beach and a few restaurants. Will keep coming back here

I loved that they were pet friendly with NO weight restrictions... it's difficult to find places that allow my 65lb husky, even if he is well behaved! The location is perfect for walking to restaurants or shops, although it is a bit of a walk to the beach in the hot sun.

This was our first family trip with our 18 month old daughter. We decided to stay at one of the cottage communities instead of a hotel, and I am so glad we chose A Laughing Horse Lodge! The lady that checked us in was so nice and helpful. We booked room 4B and were pleasantly surprised at how clean it... More

I just went down to Port A this past weekend for the very first time. It was excellent. A great escape spot. I had some car trouble in the morning so I wasn't able to make the 4:00pm check-in, so I called the office and the manager waited until well past office closing to give us the keys and was... More

We came for a "just to get away" weekend with two of our dogs and have really enjoyed ourselves. Cheerful, clean rooms, very close to the beach. I forget the name of the lady who checked us in but she was very helpful with information and just really friendly, overall.

Our family has been a regular in Port A for as long as I can remember. We have stayed just about everywhere possible in the past. Laughing Horse has always been our "one of these days" place. We've always wanted to stay here but it has always been booked. We had our chance last week and were pretty disappointed. We... More

It always makes us sad to see a review like this. We take a great deal of pride in our little lodge and when someone has an unhappy stay with us, it makes us want to do better. I think this guest has a legitimate complaint. My guess is the room wasn't as clean as it should have been. We... More
