This was by far the best experience I have had with a VRBO rental. Enough beds for hosting a group 10. House was very clean and was furnished with everything you could possibly need. Private pier was the best with green lights for night fishing. Great outdoor area and games to play during the day. Host (Amber) was very helpful and made the experience that much more enjoyable with quick responses to our questions. We will definitely be going back in the future.

Family Fishing Trip

Overall the stay was amazing, the guys enjoyed fishing so much - my father in law specifically wants to come back already :). The host was very responsive and even had the property ready way before check in time which was greatly appreciated. The house was very well stocked and there was nothing that we needed that wasn't available there.

Super impressed with the property. Walked in and the house smelled amazing. Lots of high end appliances in the kitchen and fully stocked. The decor was beautiful and every bed was super comfortable and very fluffy pillows! Plenty of room to hang outside on both decks and loved there was a hammock which i dont think i saw in the original posts. Every detail was thought about when making this a home away from home and my family had an amazing trip! Everyone loved the pier for fishing and we ended everynight there catching fish and looking at the stars! What a sweet house!!

We wanted a place that was comfortable, quiet and convenient for fishing. This property checked all the boxes. The house was clean and slept 10 of us comfortably. The private pier with lights was the main reason we booked this location and it didn’t disappoint. We caught plenty of fish (specs, sand trout, reds and even a gar). The cleaning table made everything convenient. The neighborhood has a private boat launch and the area in general is great for fishing. The property owner was very responsive to any questions we had. If you want a laid back, convenient and enjoyable fishing experience I would highly recommend this house. I can’t wait to come back!!

Father’s Day weekend

This was an amazing stay. The owner took great care and thought of everything you would possibly need to make our stay both relaxing and memorable. We were absolutely BLESSED for her hospitality and quick responsiveness from the booking process and during the stay. The views were serene offering a nice escape from the city and bustling beaches. The home was as very clean and well kept, it had some exquisite updates. We loved the deck space and the outdoor furnishings they were outstanding! Would definitely stay again. - THE YBARRA FAMILY

Wonderful family stay

This property was great for a long weekend getaway. It had everything we needed and much, much more. The kitchen was very well stocked, and there were plenty of towels and bathroom supplies. There were lots of games to play and movies to watch in the cozy living room. The outdoor patios were nice for watching the sunrise and sunset off the grassy area and rocky shore. The long pier with great fishing lights, boat dock and fish cleaning station worked well. We caught lots of fish! The downstairs room with bed, bath, washer and dryer, was nice. Lots of extras, like a desk, and bait fridge, double hammock, black stone griddle, grilling utensils, corn hole game, and much more. Just a really well stocked place with everything we needed plus more. Thanks for the memories!

Long Weekend Stay

Had a great time with 3 generations of family fishing and hanging out at this nice property. There were 9 of us and we had plenty of room to handle all of us comfortably. The downstairs portion is a big plus for extra sleeping area, storage, extra fridge, etc. This place is very well stocked inside and out, including outdoor gas grill, flattop grill, and fish fryer. We caught a lot of fish off the pier including a handful of keepers. The pier had lights at the fish cleaning area and at the end of the pier so you had 2 different areas to fish with lights at night (really nice with so many fishing). The owner's are super responsive and answered all our questions very quickly. Thanks!

My husband Chuck and I are native Texans. We love boating, fishing, and traveling with our Westie, “CatCat.” We fell in love with Turtle Bay years ago and made great memories. We want other families to have the same, wonderful experiences.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is peaceful, quiet, and right on the water.

What makes this property unique

We love the outdoor seating areas and views of the bay. Even on the hottest days, the shade and bay breeze make it enjoyable.
