About this property

Large private pool! Old Town Cottage 1 block from the Marina STR 181918

We are pleased to announce that we now have a very large private pool in our backyard!! The pool is only available for those guests currently staying at our home.
Our 1940's beach home is a Harvey survivor and has been completely restored with new stainless steel appliances, fresh paint and flooring and all the modern amenities. The high ceilings, beefy pine moldings and oversized windows with original screened in porch & rustic outdoor shower make for an unforgettable vintage beach retreat experience that is sure to please everyone in the family.
The fully equipped kitchen, indoor & outdoor dining areas, 2 bedrooms and 1 bath are located on the main level of the house. There is a separate outside entrance to the Crow's Nest loft where an additional bedroom, sitting area and toilet/sink/changing area are located. The large screened in porch is the perfect place to escape, after a long day at the beach, with your favorite beverage, take a nap, read a book or play a board game with the kids. The enclosed outdoor shower with hot & cold water located off the back entrance makes cleaning off sand quick and easy. Walking distance to most of downtown, the marina, Charlies Pasture and ferry landing. Mermaids and big kahunas of all ages welcome!!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great outdoor space!!

We loved our stay. The house is absolutely adorable but the backyard space is definitely the show stopper. The pool was much bigger than we expected, and the water felt perfect! The outdoor shower was also a great amenity. We will definitely stay here again!!

Favorite place

This was by far the cleanest VRBO we've ever stayed in. It isn’t anything fancy but the front porch is cute and the pool is excellent. The owners also provided a lot of the extras like paper towels, trash bags, and beach accessories. We’ll be back next year.

Nice and Quiet

In general the stay was great, we have no complaints. The interior of the house was as expected, it was clean, no signs of bugs/rodents. The house was equipped with all we needed. The back yard and pool has got to be the best part of this home. We probably spent about 90% of the time out in the pool.

The perfect rental

This is a beautiful home in the perfect location. Super close to the ferry and our favorite restaurant Finn's. Love the screened in front porch and pool. The separate loft is perfect for teenagers. The owners are quick to respond. Definitely recommend. I just hope it's a available next time. Don't want to stay anywhere else.

2023 Annual Port A Girls Trip!

A darling and cozy space for old friends to relax & getaway for our annual girls weekend! The pool is fabulous & the outdoor shower was a nice surprise - perfect for cleaning the sand off from our annual bocce ball tournament before jumping into the pool. The awesome bathtub upstairs was not operational, but otherwise everything was simply wonderful!

Great outdoor space

The pool was clean and larger than we were expecting. The screened in porch with fans is a great way to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine. The bedroom setup with the crow’s nest was exactly as described in the listing (but watch your head up there). The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed for meals. Easy drive to the beach and other activities. Walkable too (but it was a little hot for that). Would stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Deon

Host profile image
We have always loved the beach and in particular Port Aransas. We even spent our honeymoon in Port A, after our initial trip to Little Palm, FL was derailed by a tropical depression. It turned out to be one of the most memorable trips of our lives and made us determined to own our own piece of the island one day. In the fall of 2013 we decided to start looking for a place and spent a month looking at homes in both Rockport and Port A. However, once we stepped foot in the house on 612 Avenue A we knew we had found our special place. It has all of the unique character and nostalgia of an older home and its close proximity to everything in Port A and just blocks from the sand and sea make it the Best Escape Anyone Could Have (B.E.A.C.H.). We are 'shore' you will love it as much as we do!!

Why they chose this property

Close proximity to all things Port Aransas!!

What makes this property unique

Being in "Old Town" means you are within walking distance of guided fishing trips, jet skiing, dolphin watching tours, parasailing, park playgrounds & dining.
