About this property

Lakefront House in Cinnamon Shore w/ Access to Pools & Other Amenities!

This gorgeous Port Aransas beach home has great covered porches and balcony spaces, along with gorgeous indoor spaces that have wow factor! Bright colors punctuate nautical navy-and-white prints and patterns throughout this winning vacation home, located on Lake Colby. With four bedrooms and sleeping quarters on multiple levels, plus bonus daybed space on the 3rd level, it’s perfect for sharing with family and friends!

AMENITIES: At North, Resort-style amenities include three lavish pools, two scenic lakes, a fishing dock, fire pits, a fitness center, private dune crossovers, lawn games, a pirate ship playscape, and more! Enjoy on-site restaurants such as a Mediterranean bistro and a pizzeria, a coffee shop and café, while the Town Center hosts events, activities, and live music in peak season and on holiday weekends.

MAIN LIVING SPACE: The home has two separate living areas that easily accommodates multiple families. Fantastic balconies and porches provide lake views and extensive outdoor gathering space.

True to its name, shades of blue from cobalt to navy punctuate the main living space on the first floor, which combines the living room, kitchen and dining area. The gorgeous kitchen, with stainless appliances and double sinks, centers around a bright blue island for prep space and extra bar stool seating. A fun dining area features a cascading, shell-like chandelier over driftwood-like dining table ringed with bistro-style chairs. Relax in the family room, where a stylish mix of blue-and-white prints and solid upholstery complete the beachy, sophisticated look. The 3rd-floor sun room offers an alternative gathering space, with a pair of swing chairs and daybed. From the 3rd-floor balcony, you’ll enjoy one of the best views in all of Cinnamon Shore!

SLEEPING QUARTERS: Comfortably sleeping 12, the home easily accommodates several families. A first floor bedroom with queen-size bed works well for those who wish to avoid the stairs. The spectacular, 2nd-floor primary suite features a king-size bed, hardwood floors, and private porch, as well as a luxury primary bath with a soaking tub, separate shower, and beautiful tile work. The spacious, 2nd-floor bunk room has built-in bunks that sleep four comfortably. A fourth bedroom with a king-size bed and happy color scheme opens to its own private, covered porch with lake views and rocking chairs. The 3rd-floor sun room offers a day bed with trundle to accommodate more guests.

GREAT FEATURES: With 1,000 square feet of outdoor covered porches and a lakeside eating area, parents can relax while watching the kids catch fish off the dock of beautiful Lake Colby. From here, it’s just a quick walk, bike ride, or golf cart ride to the pool or beach, and a five-minute drive into Port Aransas, where you will find fabulous restaurants, boutiques, art galleries, and the local grocery.

Fully equipped with all the entertainment and comfort you expect in a luxury vacation home, you’ll get the full Cinnamon Shore experience when you stay at The Blue Dog.

Wonderful home
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home was so beautifully decorated, and we enjoyed our stay very much. One thing that I was not appreciative of was the fact that a young lady who worked at the front desk, apparently was friends with one of my daughter's friends and mocked her for her decorations. My daughter is an honest, hard working, kind young women and she was putting backdrops up for photos. One of the front desk girls told one of our friends that we were purposefully trying to cover up the cameras. There are cameras everywhere, and even inside the house. My daughter and her friends paid for this stay all by themselves, and began paying on it four months ago. We don't appreciate the attitude and being mocked, or talked about as if we would try to do something sneaky. We were trying to enjoy a nice weekend after much loss in our family, including the death of my fiance. So when my son and daughter were told yeah they are making fun of you at the front desk, it didn't sit well. For how beautiful the property and the house is, you would think their employees would have a little more class.

Could have been a great stay. Missed the mark.
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lots of issues. Upon check in there was a new girl. She was very sweet but not ready to answer all my questions and the other girls there had their backs to us and she had to keep interrupting her to ask my question. Very unprofessional. Our Keurig wasn't on property and I texted at 430pm and got no reply. Again later that night and got a candid reply out of office. So didn't have it the first morning. It clearly states in the email what to bring coffee pods for Kuerig. I this time had someone ask at the office in person and was told they would open a work order. Seriously? It should have been said they would take care of it right away. Shelves in fridge were terrible as things rolled and were actually missing (course you tried to fix before but they were the wrong ones that were ordered). Had to go buy ice cause there was none when we arrived and had to pay for overpriced ice at your store and make trips to grocery for rest. Ice maker still didn't work well and maintenance said it was just slow. (If this is known then put a bag in the freezer for people or bring them some at this point). Air took WAY too long to cool when it's so hot out. House was 75 when we got there. 10 ppl in a place is too long to cool and neat thermostat only on second floor so didn't cool evenly. Couldn't find another. Was there only one unit for that large place? Not enough tp for 10 ppl which is less than even what house holds. Golf cart on property blocked drive so no cars could be parked in a double spot out back. 10 people and no cars could be parked there, again no reply to move it from the office. Not enough silverware to accommodate everyone and we had to use plastic ware. missing some amenities in the kitchen, normal items, and cutting boards were not cleaned. Grill out back had not been cleaned and only 1 gas component worked. No one in property management seemed to care about any concerns, I'd be concerned if I owned a rental here. Maintenance is an issue and missing items!

Just OK
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I would give our vacation 2 stars. It had so much potential, but failed to deliver on the service side. The amenities like the live music and movies on the lawn were great, but the overall service we received was horrible. We could tell the staff at Cinnamon Shore was overwhelmed and the place was over-crowded.The house wasn't thoroughly cleaned when we arrived..there were crumbs all over the floor in the common area, and the second master had dried blood on the sheets. There were ants crawling all over the bunk room. We had a really difficult time reaching anyone to get anything resolved. Pools were overcrowded, and pool by the beach had moldy chair cushions with dried food and stains all over, golf carts were extremely overpriced. Also, at the beach there needs to be some sort of assigned number to the chairs and umbrellas, instead of making the customer trek up and down trying to find their name in the 100 degree heat. We would not go back. Definitely not a good value and we feel like we paid a fortune, which is unfortunate, because the place had so much potential.

The location is great,. really doesn’t matter how close you are to the beach as the beach buggy rentals are a must no matter where you stay. maintenance was prompt for a few issues and even tracked down jumper cables to help us out with a dead battery st midnight. Only negative was the futons in the loft - very uncomfortable even for teens. Dinner at Lisabellas was so good!

Great family house and location
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 3 families (kids ages 2-13) and loved being by the "lake" for pre-supper fishing. The table outside was great for feeding the kids and then feeding us while we watched the kids play along the alley behind the house. The bedroom on the 1st floor is a bit small so one couple gets a bit shorted but plenty of room for the kids. Some kids liked to sleep on the top floor vs the bunk room. They need a bit more bedding for the sleeping sofas on the top floor. One of our favorite family places to come. Highly recommend.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We always stay at Cinnamon Shores. This trip I found the staff to be unhelpful and rude. With the amount of money I spent for 3 nights, I would have expected much better service. We could not check in when told. The AC was broken, the dishwasher was broken and overall I was not happy with the staff. Generally I love Connamon Shores but this trip has made me want to consider a different place to stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: In spite of the house, we had a great vacation. We choose Cinnamon Shore again because of the "seaside village" atmosphere and upscale homes. However, the A/c didn't work when we arrived, the house is infested with roaches, the ceiling leaks, and the dishwasher didn't work. Expected more with accommodations.

2016 Summer Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great vacation. Cinnamon Shore is always clean and well maintained. We thought the lawn area with volleyball net was great. I would suggest more shaded area in the "new Pool" area, such as a few umbrellas. I also would ask for better trash pick up. We were staying a week and our trash piled up quickly, so we had to drive to other trash bins to dump out trash. We saw trash pick up on the property, but it never made it to our unit.
