Pulling into the neighborhood, you know right away that you are in a very nice Port Aransas community. The houses are beautiful, surrounded by wetlands, nature preserves, and wildlife!

Downstairs, fenced and gated is a gorgeous private pool, outdoor shower, grill, pool toys, and again, those amazing views! There is a propane fire pit for your evening and/or chilly night enjoyment! Or head on into the garage where a game room set up awaits you - pop a shot basketball, air hockey, ring toss, and many more games adults and kiddos will enjoy! Everything is ready for family fun!

As you make your way up the steps to the main floor, you'll stop along the way and take in the views and watch all of the birds of paradise. Binoculars and cameras are welcome! It will all take your breath away! You'll make it to the top deck and although the house is stunning on the interior, you'll stop here for a while to see the view, feel the sea breeze, and relax on the patio!

Great location and nice house
My family really enjoyed the house, the view was nice and the pool was great. The house was a short drive to the beach, maybe 5 minutes. The appliances could use some upgrading, dishwasher didn’t really clean the dishes and the grill needed to be manually lit. Also would be nice to restock the game room with newer equipment. Overall I would recommend this house to any family looking for a clean, relaxing house close to the beach.

Wonderful neighborhood
Loved the house and downstairs pool area and game room. Came with grandkids and they had a blast! Wish there would have been some more cookware specifically pans, we do a lot of cooking and there was only two older pans to pick from but everything else was top notch!

Beautiful view with birds!
We really enjoyed our two nights at your beautiful place overlooking the salt marsh. So many birds! Clean and great accomodations for two couples. A quick dip in the pool was also wonderful. Thank you!

perfect January bday vacay
This house was sooo relaxing! We brought our own food so we wouldn't have to deal with restaurants, and the house had everything in the kitchen we needed. We spent a lot of time on the balcony watching birds and playing board games. I appreciated all the clean (seemingly brand new) towels available. Also the location of the windows made the house bright and sunny, but we still had privacy. This house was truly perfect for my man and me and our sweet pup!

Amazing Stay
Absolutely a beautiful place! Everything from home to furnishings to pool to play room was over the top clean fresh and very welcoming. The pool was kid friendly as was the entire place. The Bird Sanctuary was unbelievable with literally hundreds of different coastal species in and out frequently. One of our days and I’m not exaggerating thousands of birds flew in and out in flocks!!! About 9am! Beautiful view of the sanctuary with ships passing thru the channel in the background. Beach was amazing and clean, restaurants were amazing and plentiful. The entire Island of the people that live their were all kind and serving! Much to my surprise and no intrusion whatsoever, A propane tank knob for a grill was stuck within 20 minutes a staff person showed up with a new one! The pool company stopped by and checked treatment, someone even came and brought trash can back from the street!! This company is Top Gun!! We will be back!!
