Great little house

Our family enjoyed our time in this great little house. It's just down the road from the beach, so you can walk or ride your bike or golf cart over easily. It's also a short walk to restaurants (and donut shop!). Everything was clean and everyone was comfortable. The large shower was very nice. We'd love to stay here again next time.

Clean and comfortable

Well cared for older home in Old Town. Very convenient to the beach and shops. However not scenic because it is directly next door and across the street from an RV park. However, this made no difference for us enjoying our stay.

Quick Getaway

Very nice house and very clean. 3 bedrooms is nice and all rooms are spacious. Only complaint is 1 bathroom. living area, kitchen and dining area are roomy and clean. The neighborhood is ok - next to an RV park which was clean and quiet. Close to town and the beach.

Cottage review

Property was nice in a great location but we did find quite a bit of big roaches inside the house. Alive and dead. Sorry, but as convenient as it was to the beach, we will not be back. Thank you.

Three bedroom house in Port Aransas

Nice quite area. Clean bedding and linens. Good supply of kitchen items. Bathroom well supplied. Carpet did have stains in the bedrooms. Looked like the house had been sprayed and dead bugs were in the bedrooms and laundry room. I really hated the locking system of the front door.

Great location

The house was in a great location. The details are very accurate. Parking was a bit difficult. We took two vehicles since we were aware there were only two parking spots however we rented a golf cart and didn't have much space to park it. I have one small suggestion. Since there is only one bathroom it would be nice it there were some other mirrors in the bedrooms. That didn't effect my rating at all. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great Location

The house was super clean and very good location. The neighbors were nice and friendly except for one really rude man. We had stopped by the front to unload and he came really fast through the drive and honking like crazy. We quickly said sorry and he kept honking and staring at us. Anytime we left and he was outside his trailer he would stare which made myself and kids very uncomfortable. Other than the grumpy rude neighbor it was a wonderful stay.

Misleading house pictures

The house smelled horrible when we first got there. It smelled like old cigarettes or mold. There were stains on the carpet in the bedrooms. There were 3 live cockroaches that we could see. One crawled over the food we had on the counter. The sheets were rough as sand paper.

The little cottage was a very well kept place to stay. Waking distance to bars and restaurants and tucked back from mainstream everything so it was quiet in the evenings.

This is such a beautiful home and environment. The only problem that we had were mosquitos because the front screen door had cracks which they were able to enter. Other than that this is an awesome property.
