The house was good, the kitchen was big and great for a large group to all gather while preparing BBQ. Nice yard for the dogs seems the stickers and weeds had taken over part of the back section. But still plenty of room to roam.We had a great time and enjoyed our stay!

The place was clean. The kitchen area was large, I'm in wheelchair and had enough room to maneuver around kitchen.The kitchen was fully stocked with pots and pans flatware, plates cups etc, toaster, two types of coffee makers k cup and drip. I loved the coastal decor and hand painted art on walls. 2 bathrooms one had a tub shower and the other had a shower. Lovely covered patio sitting area and bbq pit. It was very roomy. Hopefully this home will be available for another visit later this year. We truly enjoyed our visit And host was very quick to answer and bring extra trash bags.thank you.

The most relaxing trip ever!

We enjoyed this place very much! Parking the boat in the back made it so easy to just go out and fish whenever we wanted without having to load it up on the trailer every time. Thank you for the relaxing time we had. We will be back!

We really enjoyed our stay. They had everything you would need. The only issues we had was the tv in the sunroom did not work. The shower head in the main bathroom should probably be replaced. Would definitely stay again.

Great home on the canal

Very nice home with all of the comforts I expected. Plenty of space. Nice covered patio and large outdoor dining space. Large bedroom and great water pressure in the shower to clean off after a day fishing.

Family escape

Cute place on the canal. Clean, fully stocked kitchen, and comfortable. Thankfully we had some extension cords because fish cleaning stand lights and plug were not working. Overall would go back.

Great location and plenty of room

We stayed at this canal front home for 10 days with my family. My boys loved the fishing from the canal and used the kayaks to go out to the bay and numerous islands just a short paddle from the house. The interior was very spacious with lots of seating in the family room for evening watching TV and playing games at the dining table. I love cooking and found everything I needed to make all the meals, especially the freshly caught trout and redfish that my kids brought home. (my family that lives in Rockport, have a boat) The neighborhood is very quiet and friendly & Palm Harbor Marina is at the end of the street. You won't be disappointed !

Perfect Balance: Remote Work and World-Class Fishing Retreat

My brother and I had devised a cunning plan—a week of "remote work" from a Vrbo haven, strategically nestled between Rockport and Aransas Pass. It was a place where mornings started with the pull of fish on the line, and afternoons hummed with the sound of keyboards beneath the reliable comfort of air conditioning. The house itself, perched just five minutes from world-class fishing by boat, was more than a mere backdrop to our adventures. With WiFi strong enough to rival any office connection, we seamlessly toggled between spreadsheets and tackle boxes. The kitchen—well-stocked and ample—kept us fueled for both work and play, whether it was early-morning coffee or post-fishing meals that tasted like victory. And should the need arise to venture into civilization, both Rockport and Aransas Pass were mere minutes away, perfect for quick restocks on groceries or—more importantly—tackle. In short, this place didn’t just fit our week—it elevated it. If you're seeking a retreat where you can blend the grind with the glide of a boat on the water, look no further.
