The host was very responsive to all my questions! She even reached out to let us know the house would be available for an early check in. The best part was being able to take our fur babies and leave our boat in the water on the canal. It was just the perfect house for our family.

Great house for fishing RedfishBay

The house has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths which was perfectly fine for 3 guys. Nice, casual layout with a nice dock and cleaning station. The house is well-stocked and I appreciated that. Easy, quick communication with the owner when needed and the price was right. Will return!

Sibling fishing getaway

We thought the property was great. The house had everything that we needed, clean, well-stocked, comfy beds, great patios and deck. Great water view. My sister-in-law said it was a great choice and that we would definitely stay here again, and she got dibs on the downstairs room.

Great family house with a lot of amenities!

This is a great 3 bedroom house right between Rockport and Aransas Pass. It is located on a canal with a green light underwater for fishing. My husband and adult children loved the stay and there was plenty of room for 6 adults.

Great Home on the Canal

We loved our stay at this beautiful canal-front home. We chose it because we have a daughter who is not quite 2yo and loved the safety of the fence. My son and husband love to fish and enjoyed fishing each day after getting home from the beach. Would absolutely rent again
