The house was good for a family vacation of 17. The pool was small, but fun. The canal was good for some fishing or just a water view. Check in and out was easy. Kitchen had enough to make meals. We would stay here again.

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.

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!

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.

Mediocre
First, I’m used to staying in Key Allegro, so please view through that lens. The location is good unless you want to experience restaurants etc in the main parts of Rockport. The house was clean enough. I’ve never left a bad review on VRBO, and that is not my intent but I do appreciate others’ reviews when choosing a house so I want to share my thoughts since the photos don’t capture everything. The owners put forth effort to make the house nice, but cut corners in the remodel process. I’m not even sure it’s up to code - extremely steep interior stairs, exposed wall outlets and the best part, a stainless oven hood that sticks out in an already very narrow passage that is frankly dangerous. All our guests hit their head on the corner of it. The kitchen is TINY! Two people struggled to cook in the unusually small space - you can’t tell from the photos online. The floor elevation has tiny step ups or step downs that will trip you up. The big master doesn’t have an en suite bath. And there is nearly nothing in the kitchen such as hand soap, etc. Bring everything. The shower looks like one of those cheap plastic showers that you’d find in an RV.. all fine, but the price point should reflect the quality of the house. Mold residue is visible, which I understand with the heat and humidity. Plenty of parking! Poor HVAC design with inconsistent temps. Overall not terrible but certainly needs investment, renovation and some TLC.

PROPERTY DOES NOT RECEIVE PROPER CARE/ MAINTENANCE!!
Extremely dirty property. Seems like the only thing they changed/cleaned were the towels. No one informed us upon arrival that the pool was not safe to get in. Pool guy came out and said there was NO CHLORINE. He even said we shouldn’t be swimming in it. Although they reimbursed for the inconvenience, it wasn’t a fair amount as it caused our kids to have ear infections, and a big reason why we booked was for the pool and was not able to use it on half our trip. Tiles around the pool and stairs were very slippery. We almost slipped a few times. THREE out of their five or six TV’s did NOT work. Grass was long, they did not have yard work done upon arrival. We bought brisket to smoke in the smoker as they had shown in their property images. They got rid of it and never updated their pictures. Their fishing pier feels very shaky. The planks were coming up.One of their check out instructions was to have the boat lift up before leaving. Their boat lift looks like it had been in the water for months. If you plan to bring your boat, be sure to ask them first!They do not respond to messages in a timely manner. Worse rental property I’ve ever stayed in. They do not put in proper care for this house. They definitely do not have the right to charge a cleaning fee as it obviously does not get the maintenance it needs. In my opinion, this property shouldn’t be allowed to be rented out. I will never rent from this rental company again.

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.

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!
