Yearly Family Rockport Trip

Every year, we visit Rockport with our kids. My grandparents used to own a house downtown, so we have many fond memories of the area. The house was definitely worth the price, and our 10-year-old loved celebrating her birthday there. We had a birthday dinner, and our other daughter had everything she needed in the kitchen for cooking.

Great home in convenient location

House was exactly as advertised. Open concept, comfortable bed (didn’t use the bunks but they looked to have thicker than standard upgraded mattresses), spacious, easy walk to downtown and/or the beach (20 ish minutes), quiet neighborhood, big backyard, streaming apps on the tv with guest access, and everything you’d need in a kitchen. No complaints!

Very Clean with Well-Equipped Kitchen

This property was very clean with a well-equipped kitchen, great appliances, close enough to walk to downtown area. I would recommend letting people know ahead of time about there only being room for 2 vehicles. We had 2 big trucks, a boat, and a car. Thankfully, the property next door wasn't being used while we were there, so we used some of the space in front of that house to park.

This is a tough one to review. The house is great, the location is great, and the management respose was good. We had easy access to the shops and restaurants, and the crawfish festival, the rookery, and other sights farther away. The bed was comfortable enough, and the kitchen was easy to use, although the icemaker didn't work properly. However, our final night was marred by an ant invasion. I woke shortly after midnight because the ants were stinging me in my sleep. We moved to the lower bunks in the other bedroom to finish the night, but the experience was traumatic. Management said they would deal with it, and I am sure they will, but be careful.
