Overall great location. The space and amenities are good. Plenty of room for all our guests. Great to have a pool and BBQ pit. Fishing access to the canal was good. Although the house needs some upkeep. We ran into a few things, house was not cleaned to good. Needs some maintenance. We had to call for dining door not opening. Maintenance came to replace door know. We also informed him of there being dirty underwater hanging in closet,threshold in 2nd bedroom loose, we tripped over it, old molded coffee grounds in pot. Oven dirty,Bbq pit was filthy which we cleaned, dead and live cockroches. Maintenance was very nice and friendly. Our hostes Nina was very nice and accommodating to our needs even prior to our arrival,thank you. We had a great time at this location, would definitely recommend staying here.

Reviewer Comments:
The property has an excellent location for fishing, and a very nice outdoor yard and environment. As advertised. What is not properly advertised is the very poor condition of the home inside. It is large and does sleep 18. But the master bath has loose tile on the floor that was never glued down, master bath shower is plastic insert that I have seen in RVs, there is a hole in the wall in the other large room. Wall facing the kitchen is unfinished with plaster not even sanded down, the kitchen is TINY. Two large me can barley work in the kitchen at the same time. Paint worn all over the home. This is a good project home that probably needs $150k for a make over. Great for 5 guys that just want to fish and don't care about interior condition. But this is not a luxury home, and not a place to bring entire families that actually want to stay in a nice home.

This house allows for lots of room for a large family. Love the pool. We grilled three times and enjoyed the outside areas. Location is a quick drive to all the area has to offer, and a quick boat ride too! Kitchen is tight, and my tall people each had at least one turn hitting the corner of the hood vent, one drew blood!

We had a great stay. The weather was perfect and the house was big enough for all 17 who stayed with us.

Check in was a breeze! The kids enjoyed the pool and fishing off the dock. We enjoyed gatherings and making s’mores at the fire pit at night. Plenty of space for the family. Some of the doors were hard to open and close but overall a great property.

We loved the house, it was very roomy and the pool was great. I would more than likely come back again. The property manager stayed in contact with me through the entire process. Wonderful customer service. 🤗

Very clean nice home. Plenty of dock space for boats an awesome view from the balcony.

Nice to stay where we could dock the boat and enjoy the pool and grilling area and balcony. It is very easy to hit your head on the kitchen stove vent, lots of stairs.

We had the best trip - 3 families and lots of kids, and the house was very accommodating. Everyone had their space, the backyard was so spacious - room for everyone to sit, to swim, to fish, it was great. Close to Rockport Beach and Port Aransas and beautiful weather while we were there. Thank you for such a great experience!

My family enjoyed all the amenities along with locations of activities near us. We enjoyed the pool while we barbecued, enjoyed the atmosphere of the location by the water for fishing along with plenty of space for my family. We look forward to staying again for our yearly beach vacation!
4.5
We enjoyed the pool, swimming in the canal, gathering around the large table in the living area, and all the outdoor seating areas that were perfectly situated so very little sun was ever on us. The beach was nearby and had lots of free parking with easy access. It was a great stay for 10 in our family!

The house was advertised as being able to fit 18 adults and it could not. Three of our guests had to go find another place to stay because there was not enough room. Two of the beds were fold down futons and they were not comfortable. The location is great but they need to either change the listing or add some beds.

everything was really good except the Grill. bbq pit was missing a grill on the smoker . the grill on the grilling section had a big hole and was not the grill to that pit. that was a huge deal for me because that was one of tge closing points for me. i had to have a pool , fishing deck and a bbq grill. i grilled the two nights and it was terrible experience.

It was a beautiful and roomy house! There were a few issues when we arrived like the pool being green and trash dumpsters were knocked over with trash on the ground but Suzanne had it all taken care of within 30 min. She was very attentive and helpful through it all starting at booking the property . We would certainly stay there again!
