Upon arrival and entering the cabin there was a very musty smell. The group decided to leave the doors open for a bit and turn the A/C on to see if this would help air out the cabin. This did help with both the upstairs and downstairs. The kitchen table was very sticky/tacky.

Pet friendly and worked great for our family. Disappointed in the missing items. Had to bring toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags! Plus they have a grill but you need to fill the propane tank. Not filling it for a few days use.

The home was perfect for our family to comfortably stay in which for my teen, the downstairs private area worked out great! Although, the pictures are outdated as the outdoor furniture was rusted, and the bird poop was everywhere that we couldn’t really sit and enjoy the backyard. Considering we had our dog, a fence should be added to allow the dogs outside safely.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate your insights and will address the outdoor furniture and cleanliness. Adding a fence is also a great suggestion and we will look into this. We hope to welcome you back soon.

Great stay!

The house was awesome! We didnt have any luck at the water fishing, but we also stayed in the colder months so it was kindof expected for the location. House was clean and was stocked with everything we needed.

Great fishing spot

The house is located in a great location in between Rockport and Aransas Pass. Caught our first flounder from the back dock and several small black drum and my wife caught a huge oversized drum. We hit the flats on our kayaks and caught a little of everything including a giant trout. Looking forward to booking again.

House was decent but it’s an odd layout with no real deck to enjoy the morning or evening looking at the water. Lots of egrets around that make a mess as well. The house also lacks some things many other VRBO’s in Rockport provide.. basic beach stuff, beach towels, cooking spices, etc.Overall this house is a mid 3.

Thank you for your feedback, Jeremy. We're glad you found the house somewhat enjoyable, and we are sorry the back porch and deck on the canal did not provide you the view you wanted. Your guest portal had our "we provide list" so I am sorry for that confusion. We appreciate your input and hope you have a pleasant stay overall. Miss Kitty's

The inside was excellent. Plenty of seating and comfortable couches. The beds were very comfortable as well. The kitchen was fully stocked with very nice pots and pans and cookware. My husband was impressed that the knives were actually sharp! The biggest disappointment was the downstairs outside porch area. The pictures show a really nice table and chair set for dining or just sitting outside enjoying the view. The table was completely dirty and rusty and the chairs were dirty and wet. No one could use the table. The glass fire pit and chairs were in the same condition and the ping pong table was warped and rusty from being outside so it was unusable as well. Other than not being able to use the downstairs, which we were excited about, the inside was very nice and comfortable. We would book again if the downstairs is cleaned up and has useable furniture.

The customer service was above and beyond. The team was very friendly and helpful. I have always used VRBO to book houses at the coast. Now I will go directly to Miss Kitty's. The experience was far better.

Great House and location. Only issue is the listing said max of 22’ boat. I have a 22’ boat and it definitely hung over to the neighbors dock. Luckily he didn’t mind but I’d say a 20’ boat would be the max
