We had such a great stay here for my best friend’s birthday weekend. The house was cute, comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed for our group. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, which made it really easy to relax and enjoy the weekend.There was plenty of room for the adults and kids to spread out, and we especially enjoyed having the outdoor space and porch. The location was convenient for getting around Rockport and enjoying the beach without feeling like we were staying in the middle of a busy tourist area.Overall, it was exactly what we needed for a low-key family weekend with friends. Comfortable, clean, quiet, and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again!

there was mold and other debris in the ice bin in the freezer. Both bathrooms had sinks that did not drain well. The only frying pan in the kitchen was small, and the hand was loose. The cleanliness of some of the rugs was questionable.

The house was full of mesquitos.

We had to spray each other before going to bed. The TV in the living didnt work but was fixed the next day. The beach was not nice. Jellyfish ruined it for the kids. The water was so shallow.

Adorable House & Neighborhood

My family and I stayed here for our first time in Rockport for a 4th of July weekend beach vacation with our friends who stayed nearby. The location is amazing for being close to the beach and all things Rockport. The house was so cute and cozy, perfect for a family. This is the perfect beachy vibed house nestled on a quiet street. My only complaint is the internet was not working. We were unable to use the TVs and our WiFi devices which is not normally a huge deal, but I also work from my devices remotely so it was frustrating. I sent a message to the host the first day and never got a response. I will also consider it was a holiday weekend so maybe that contributed to the lack of communication. Besides that, this rental is absolutely perfect and I would definitely book again!

Beach Cottage

Initial impressions was disappointment in the neighborhood. Three foot deep weeds on adjacent lot. Multiple abandoned properties in disrepair. Cottage was in good repair, appeared to have been recently painted. On arrival the air conditioner was not working. Initially difficult to obtain help. Kept getting an answering machine. However once I spoke with the owner?, help was dispatched and arrived within 30 minutes. Apparently this is a chronic problem as he knew exactly how to correct the problem and we had cool air immediately.One major concern: the secondary exit was locked with the door knob removed, so only exit was the front door. With the bedrooms in the back, exit in case of fire was limited.

What a great property at a great location. Minutes from the beach, one of the nicest beaches we've ever been to. Minutes from restaurants and bars. The place was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a long weekend stay.

It was a cute little place. Would definitely come back when in town again. It’s off the hustle of the “beach” crowd so it’s super quiet. Everything we needed during the stay was readily available. Communication was super easy and quickly responded to when I would have questions.

This spot was perfect for enjoying the house itself, getting out when we could—roomy, cheery, clean, well stocked kitchen, etc.We were able to get out and see many of the local sights, driving into Corpus Christi and Aransas Pass.
