We had a nice time at Richard's vacation rental. There are 3 floors with lots of nice bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms so be prepared for some good calf workouts. Richard and James were very responsive and happy to help with anything we needed. Short drive to beach and bring your own fishing gear to take advantage of the pier!

The private night fishing

The private night fishing

Honestly this condo met our needs perfectly. The private deck for night fishing was such a cool experience for our 5 year old, she really loved it. We even saw some sting rays. Really neat place, recommend renting a golf cart to drive to beach, it’s the perfect distance to ride in a golf cart to!

Spring Break

Spring Break

Property is far enough away from the middle of town that it is quiet and relaxing, but close enough to town to enjoy the public beaches and other events in Corpus with just a short drive. Fishing and crabbing was fun with the kids on the pier. Kitchen is fully stocked, making meals done there easy. Family enjoyed our stay very much. Staff on property were very helpful with questions and super friendly.

Great place for family vacation

We came here for a family vacation during Labor Day weekend and Richard was very friendly and gave us tour of his property even though we arrived late night. This place was huge and you can definitely relax because it’s very quite in the area. Pier was clean and we definitely had a great time fishing. I would recommend this place to everyone who will be traveling with big family and we will definitely come back for next trip!

A Good Time Was Had By All!

A Good Time Was Had By All!

The location with private lighted pier was wonderful and the fishing was great. Our unit had plenty of room and the A/C worked very well - no problems with keeping cool even on the 3rd floor. Washer & Dryer were a huge plus. We had a problem with the disposal at 10:30 pm & the maintenance man James, who lives on site, was there within minutes to fix the problem. Do not expect to park in the double garage pictured in the photos. We only had limited space for ice chests, canopy, chairs, etc. as the garage was filled with "stuff" being stored there. The limited parking issue others have reported was not a huge problem for us. All in all, we had a great time. Would I stay here again.....yes.

The Island & Beach!

The Island & Beach!

We stayed here (8) 4 Adults 3 Teens and 1 child and had plenty of space. It was nice to have 3 functional bathrooms with the # of people and the teens had fun on the pier at night fishing…lots of action no BIG fish being caught, but they loved it. There was plenty of room to enjoy the nights outside sitting around the table, just spray yourself for mosquitoes! If it’s breezy none came around :) House itself was great, but there was ALOT going on with the properties and owner actually lives onsite and I have to say it was not like our typical or usual VRBO experiences. The garage was full of their belongings, as were all of their garages and they needed to clean it out so that there was room to walk thru to get into the house, but they couldn’t do that until the next day. We didn’t have a working door lock to the garage and had to ask him to fix that, so our first evening there the garage had to stay opened. We asked what they were doing with all of these things and they told us they were getting some other VRBO properties ready for rentals. They were loud at some points and had some bickering going on that you couldn’t help but overhear….everything is pretty close quarters so you’ll hear others and their conversations if on the balconies We came from AZ & TN to grieve and heal after losing our mother unexpectedly and this sort of put us in a weird and awkward situation. There is no digital key code system and you have to ask for the WIFI passcodes and stuff! We had strangers walking into our garage and into the house looking for the owner! We used the pool but we also had an issue with not being able to use the pool on day 5 of our stay due to all the sand that was blown into it from the wind and them trying to do work on the property…I tried contacting Richard to ask they clean it up and we were not successful in getting him to respond until late the following day, and it still hadn’t been fully cleaned by the time we checked out to leave. I feel the Owner was genuinely nice but has a lot of organizing that needs to be done around the place to make it a more professional VRBO experience. Overall we did enjoy our stay and the rooms and beds were comfortable, but not a place I would come back to, unfortunately. :(

Minor items

Minor items

The property was fine and the people who we worked with were also great. The only two things we would not rate as high were parking and the fact that one of the bedrooms did not have a closet or dresser for people to use. The parking is not sufficient for the amount of cars. It made parking every day difficult. Otherwise this property was a good one.

This is a great condo in a unique location. Really enjoyed our stay. Richard, the owner, and James the maintenance and operations guy couldn’t have been better. Richard was a cool guy to hang out with and he has an awesome spot to stay on the Island. Also good place for kids to catch a few fish under the lights at night. Boater and boating trailer friendly. Hope to stay there again soon. Thanks again Richard!

Nice clean beach house

Nice clean beach house

This place was great for a getaway. It's actually 3bd/3.5ba (though listing says 3/2.5). The inside of the house was very clean and fishing pier came in handy as we could just walk from our terrace to the pier and go fishing late at night. The checkin process was smooth. The only thing that could be improved would be more cooking utensils in the kitchen and also the garage is pretty full so it's hard to get in and out through the garage.

Good overall and on short notice

Good overall and on short notice

We had rented out another property prior, but the owner canceled late on us. So vrbo worked with me and helped make sure this property would work. The private fishing pier is awesome and the main attraction. The cottage/condo looks like it was recently renovated, but it seems 90% done, not quite all the way there. The only issue though that we really had? Some other folks had also rented it for Saturday night, which was our second night. It was double-booked for the day, which must've been tough for the other renters, as they had to find last minute lodging. Yikes!

Awesome!!!!! Richard and James were great. Anything we needed, James was on it. Location was perfect for us. The back deck on the wayer was surreal, even our little ones caught. I shouldn't post too much then we may have to book super early because everyone will want to stay here. We will be going again next year. Thank you for making great memories.
