Why the Owner Chose Rockport
Rockport has that south Texas feel but on the coast with generally dry weather and cool Gulf breezes.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The property is secluded with a private 300 foot lighted fishing pier. The best spot on the property is the pavilion midway down the pier where you can nap in the shade and feel the breezes.
The beach is groomed daily and is excellent for picnics, jogging, and for kids to play in safe smaller waves in Aransas Bay.
Take the ferry to Port Aransas and head to the Horace Caldwell fishing pier. Can be awesome surf at end of T head of pier.
At the base of the causeway leading into to Corpus Christi is the Texas Aquarium and an aircraft carrier. My kids and their friends enjoyed this outing many times.
The Aquarium has odd hours but is in Rockport, next to the harbor and behind the art museum. Also on the other side of the harbor is the Maritime museum which is worth the visit.
Pools and skate park; located behind the high school, 25 yard eight lane heated pool with diving area, a walk in leisure pool with slides and fountains. 6,000 square foot skate park with pyramids, gri
Owner's Map of Rockport
I have been vacationing in Rockport since I was an infant. Things have changed a lot over the years but it is still the best place on the Texas coast for fishing, bird watching, windsurfing and sailing. The steady breezes and spectacular Copano Bay sunsets are hard to beat. Our property is in great shape with the main house having been recently remoduled including replacement and upgrade of all interiors, apppliances and amenities.
