Really enjoyed the house layout, cupboards full of glasses, storage containers, utensils, pans. Linens and towels felt quality. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Home and lawn are well taken care of
The house was very nice, its location is perfect close to the beach, downtown and grocery stores. The host was very quick to get back to me. The one thing that they could do is have some more dishrags we only had two bigger dish towels but none to wipe countertops but that’s a very minor thing.
How’s is just as listed! Loved everything about it and how up to date all the appliances were. Also extremely close to everything we needed including beach shops and restaurants will definitely be staying here again next time in town!
The property was beautiful. The separate entry downstairs room/bathroom was perfect for our adult nephew. The loft was a haven for our 17 year old and the 11 year old was satisfied with the sleeper sofa. The beds (foam mattress?) were exceptionally comfortable and there were many charming touches throughout.
Talk about a perfect vacation. This property was extremely beautiful and clean. It suited my family in every way possible. We stayed 7 days, and each time we opened the doors it was hard to believe we had to leave. Awesome location close to the water and shops made the trip so relaxing. Will definitely be coming back to stay at this location.
Everything was as pictured, plus small touches around the house that made it even better

Perfect Rockport stay!
Perfect size home for our family of four and room for more. Great distance to the beach. Beautiful quiet neighborhood close to downtown. We enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to go back!
Love this house and where it’s located! The house was gorgeous and had everything we needed and it’s location was convenient to restaurants and stores! Would definitely rent this house again!
Other than being locked inside the residence for about 45 mins and the downstairs room which was a not a great thing for us. The property was great and very beautiful. Everything was fully equip and useful. Great location.

Thank you for your kind review, Jenna! I’m glad to hear that you found the main house super cute and clean. We strive to provide a welcoming environment for our guests.
I appreciate your feedback regarding the downstairs bedroom needing attention and maintenance. Your comments are valuable, and I will ensure that our maintenance team looks into this matter to improve the experience for future guests.
Thank you once again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back for another stay!
This location is super close to the beach and the downtown area. The property looks brand new and it is very well outfitted and comfortable. One note, the second bedroom has its own entrance and cannot be accessed from the main house.

Hi, Sharon. Thank you for providing us with this valuable feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the amenities and location of our home. We thank you for your feedback, as it helps us improve our guests' experiences. We look forward to welcoming you back for another fabulous getaway in the future.
We enjoyed our stay at the property and would highly recommend to others. It was very cleaned and well stocked with everything we needed. We had 4 people staying in the house for the weekend and used both bedrooms. The bedroom on the first floor is small, but cozy. The beds were very comfortable. Communication with the property owner was great. The house is not on the water, but very close to it and within 5 minutes of Rockport beach so was a great location for us. We would definitely stay there again.
Description on VRBO was a bit misleading regarding the beds (2 queens and 1 double). One of the queens was a short fold out sofa bed - not comfortable. The double was a futon bench that would not have slept one average American, but was advertised for 2 people. VRBO filter found this house using a filter for 2 beds and 2bathrooms. There was a description of a "guest room" with a queen bed and I received instructions for this room in my e-mail, but it was not included in the booking - so that created confusion at check-in. The house had 1.5 bathrooms, not 2. Better transparency in the description would be appreciated.The thermostat was set on a schedule which we did not know how to alter. I called the management company when we returned home one evening and the temperature in the house was 80 degrees. They were helpful, but kept asking the same questions over and over. In the end, they did send a technician over to help us. This could be remedied with some instructions for the thermostat, so guests could easily set the temperature without worrying about damaging the settings.I suggested to the hosts that they ask the cleaners to leave more than a small amount of toilet paper for guests. We had to buy our own on the second day, because both rolls had less than 1/2" of paper on them.
Only thing freezer wasn’t freezing right. But we all had a great time .Thank you for always responding to our messages..

At TurnKey, it’s our highest priority to make sure our guests have the best experience possible, but if problems do arise, we try our very best to make things right in any way we can. Please let us assure you that our local Operations Team will make sure any outstanding maintenance issues are resolved to prevent similar issues moving forward. We are so glad you called our 24/7 guest hotline to let us know about it and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. By the way, you were perfect guests, and we appreciate you taking care of our place as if it were your own. Please come back and visit us again any time. -The TurnKey Team
Everything about this place was fabulous.
Only wish it had been a little more specific that the second bedroom downstairs is separate from the top house, meaning you literally have to go through the outside stairs to go back into main house. Which wouldn't be ideal for family with smaller kids. Other than that it is perfect, clean and very close to shops and beach.
This is where the downfall is. The home is labeled a 2 bedroom on VRBO but in reality it is a 1 bedroom with a totally separate entrance downstairs for a guest bedroom. This is not suitable for a 9 and 10 year old. Therefore we had to all cram in the living room and 1 bedroom while paying for a 2 bedroom we o my got to utilize 1 bedroom.

We truly hope we can host you for a more comfortable stay in the future. Thank you.
Beautiful place, if you are traveling with little kids there are things to be aware of...
Lovely place, beautiful neighborhood, cant complain about anything. Its set up to be safe for littles too, with a pull-across gate on the patio and fenced in parking under the house, a yard, and a hose to rinse off after a beach visit. If you are traveling as a group theres privacy for 3 couples, 4 if you count the couch in the living room. If you are traveling with small children though you should be aware, the second bedroom is actually an apartment under the main house. This is really nice if you are newlyweds traveling with friends ;-) but not so much if you are a single parent with 6 kids under 12. Mine are older, so it wasnt an issue, the teen girls enjoyed having their own "hotel room" but it may be if you are traveling with littles, and the listing didnt make that clear. Communication was good though and hopefully that will be clarified for future guests :-) We loved our stay here, and would stay again if we get a chance :-)
