Coastal and salt marshes make up this duck rich habitat. The San Antonio bay is surrounded by three Wild Life Management areas, which provides sanctuary for millions of wintering waterfowl. Guests will enjoy morning flights of a variety of different species over miles of pristine huntable coastline. Professional guides and their dogs make each hunt a memorable one. Non-stop action awaits you at the Sportsman's Paradise Lodge.

Our lodge is fully equipped to accommodate your party of up to 10 guests. A fully functioning kitchen, all bedding, towels and linens are provided for your use. There is parking, a cleaning station, washer, dryer and plenty of room for everyone to kick back and relax. Direct TV is available, but it doesn't nearly rival sitting out on the deck grilling the days harvest while watching the sun go down with a margarita or cold beer in hand.

We strive to ensure that you have a comfortable memorable getaway. Waves of ducks and nonstop action awaits you at the Sportsman's Paradise Lodge.

Guadalupe Delta WMA

The Deltaic estuary of the Guadalupe River is a complex mix of natural and manmade wetlands and associated adjacent uplands in the vicinity of the delta of the Guadalupe and San Antonio rivers. The volume of freshwater the Guadalupe River discharges, along with the shallowness of adjacent bays, contribute to extremely low salinity in those bay systems as compared to other bay systems in Texas.

Matagorda Island WMA

A 38 mile long island off central Texas coast, at Port O’Connor, the Matagorda Island WMA is separated from the mainland by San Antonio and Espiritu Santo bays. The island offers a multitude of other waterfowl species that prefer its salt marshes to the brackish waters of the delta.

Rare/endangered/threatened species and natural communities with occurrence record on the WMA include:
Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus)
Whooping Crane (Grus americana)
Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus)
Texas diamondback terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin littoralis)
Panther Reef Bird Rookery
Matagorda Island Air Base Bird Rookery

Aransas National Refuge

ANWR falls under the Gulf Prairies and Marshes which is broken down into:1) Bluestem Grassland, 2) Live Oak Woods/Parks, and 3) Marsh/Barrier Island. Grassland, live oak, and redbay thickets cover most of the uplands creating an island of habitat surrounded by thousands of acres of agricultural lands to the north and west, and saltwater bays to the south and east. The peninsula is ringed by tidal marshes and uplands are broken by long, narrow swales that are often flooded. ANWR provides a stop-over and wintering area for more than 210 species of birds migrating in either the spring or fall, or both seasons. The length of stopovers by migratory birds varies widely, depending on the species.

For the waterfowl enthusiast Seadrift is a must experience duck hunting paradise.
