Thank you so much for the awesome review! We're so happy you enjoyed your stay at The Bay House & hope to host you again in the future!
We had a great time! Pictures do not do justice as the house is much nicer and was pleasantly surprised. Check in was a bit rough but once figured out, our stay was great. The pier was nice. We really enjoyed our stay and even talking about returning again! Communication before staying was good. Thanks for a nice Rockport stay!
The home is big and beautiful photos do not do the home justice! Everything we needed was in the home. Beds were comfortable sofa was amazing!!! The home is clean and the view of the water is amazing! Will be back again!
Perfect Family Getaway for Kayaking, Fishing, and Relaxation!
Our stay at the Bay House was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the place was spotless and incredibly well-maintained. Beds are extremely comfortable as well! The communication with the host was seamless, making check-in and check-out a breeze.
The pier is well lit at night and the benches are nice. We were excited to catch a 34” shark, several trout, and gafftops off the pier. Great location for kayaking as well.
This vacation rental provided everything we needed for a memorable family vacation. We can't wait to return! Highly recommended!

Host was very responsive but both nights of our stay the water got really choppy to the point that the water was half way up the driveway….including mud and sand. Also, we had 2 roaches in one of the bedrooms.

We are so sorry that you were inconvenienced by the weather & the Palmetto! Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about the high tide and weather conditions. I wish we could lol:). As far as the Palmetto bug goes, that is going to happen every so often. We spray quarterly, and then some, however. you are going to get one every now and then. Hopefully that little rascal didn’t ruin your vacation. This is one of our most popular homes and we hate to hear about any inconveniences. Had we known about the Palmetto when you arrived, we would’ve sent someone over immediatley to dispose of it. The choppy bay , unfortunately we cannot fix but hopefully you had a great stay! The views are amazing and being on “island time” is a vacay within itself!
We had an absolutely wonderful time during our stay at Rockport! The accommodations were excellent, providing everything we needed for a perfect family vacation. The pier was a true highlight of our trip as we managed to catch a 23" Redfish and even a 2.5 ft shark - a thrilling experience for the whole family!
The kids had a blast crabbing and swimming in the water right out back, making cherished memories.
A big thank you to the VRBO hosts for making our stay truly remarkable. We are already looking forward to returning next year for another fantastic adventure! Highly recommended!

This property is great! All the comforts of home, and then some! It's a beautiful place, right on the water, great views, huge open spaces both inside and out, well furnished, comfortable beds, big kitchen, and a long lighted pier to boot! What's not to like. Go, stay, you'll like it, and will wish you could have stayed longer!
One of the best places we have ever stayed! There was more than enough room for our family Thanksgiving. We are a family of cooks, so we spent a lot of time in the kitchen and it was spacious and had all of the amenities. Fishing was great despite the weather and everyone had a great time. We will definitely be back!
