    Both the pool and pier were private which was nice. We caught several fish off the pier (Black Drum, Croaker, catfish) and several kids caught their very first fish. The pool was a nice getaway for both kids and adults. Water as a little cold but very clean. Sitting areas and bay view was wonderful and relaxing. Kitchen was huge and spacious which we loved. Host Dawn answered all my questions and in a very timely manner. The whole family loved the get-away and quality time together!

    14 members of my family, including for teens and for preteens, had a great time at your place. The Fishing was OK, not great. The swimming pool was a big hit, especially in the heat of the day. The large living room and kitchen served our purposes well. Plenty of room to play games and enjoy meals together. It was especially nice to have five bedrooms, because escape from the noise was doable.Not a problem to go to town. A well stocked HEB was near enough to get the ice cream home before it melted. Tackle town, a popular tackle shop, had everything we need for Fishing. Highly recommend Flemming’s bait stand in the Rockport Harbor.Had a problem with a door handle falling off, and Dawn had it fixed within eight hours. Plenty of dishes, utensils, and glasses.We will be back again, in the future.

    The house was beautiful and everything we could have wanted for a family gathering. We had 13 people and there was plenty of room. Plenty of hot water! We had washer going and people showering at the same time with no problem. The kids had the best time going from swimming in the pool to fishing on the pier and back again. Would highly recommend.
