Fathers Day beach trip

Great trip! Extremely accurate representation of the property based of photos, clean, close to the beach and restaurants. Great backyard area… HUGE yard, well landscaped, and great for entertaining. All of the appliances (washer/dryer especially) were newer and worked great. Great trip!

We had a wonderful time. This is the 4th time staying at the property. I wish the furniture in the living and dining area were not so short, but that's our preference. A little harder to get out of when you have leg and back problems. However we already knew the furniture situation and we weren't there just sit sit on the furniture. We enjoy the property very much. The backyard is great. We will be back.

Fantastic Weekend in Rockport

Where to start! The residence was immaculate, nicely furnished and decorated. One of the most WELL equipped kitchen at any STR I have ever stayed in. Quiet neighborhood, great landscaping and the back yard is the icing on the cake. Perfect for family gatherings. Conveniently located to Old Town Rockport and Rockport beach.

The host was very welcoming. The house was awesome . It met all of our needs and more. We loved the outdoor patio area. Very relaxing and peaceful. Definitely making your home a place to return to for years to come. I have 7 sister’s plus myself. It’s great that we could have our SISTER WEEKEND there . The only drawback was the dishwasher was leaking so we used our towels to put on the floor so we didn’t slip and fall because it was very slippery. We did contact the property management and said the owners would be in to take care of it. Also have a bigger broom in the house to help with mishaps and 2 stand up fans to help with circulation Other than those 2 things the house was great.

Peaceful & Beautiful

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: This was the perfect location for our family and our best friends to spend a few days while enjoying Texas beaches. The home is beautiful and so peaceful. We spent so much time on the covered patio just enjoying the breezes. If our travels bring us to Rockport again we will definitely rent this home again. :)
