Dining options are limited. Freezer and refrigerator freezer smelled over powering of fish but this is a fishing community. Everything was adequate, cabin was clean. Got to see deer and a fawn right in the yard. There is no grocery store so plan accordingly and Mondays and Tuesdays there no places open for breakfast. I would recommend this lil cabin. Had good Wi-Fi and good selection of tv apps.

Dated, but sufficient and fairly priced.
There are not a ton of options in this little fishing town, but this place served us 4 adult men well with clean beds, TV, WiFi and a comfortable setting. Priced about right given the location and age of the property. Checking in and out went very smoothly. Thanks for sharing your property!

Nice Fishing Cabin
This was my first time to stay at this property, but not my first time in PM. The cabin had most of what we needed, there was an issue with the A/C but Vic's Rents was quick to fix the unit and got it cooling down once again. Overall the cabin works for fishermen.

Functional Fishing Camp in Port Mansfield
Clean and functional fishing camp, well located in a quiet section of Port Mansfield, TX. Plenty of room for a small family or group of fishermen. Tucked away on a quiet street, but convenient to boat ramp, supplies and evening deer strolls looking at the "Muy Grandes of Port Mansfield"!

Fishing Trip for 4
Nothing fancy, but perfect for a fishing trip! Great price for the house! Beds were a tad hard and noisy, shower door didn't slide great, and front door only opens halfway. Kitchen had everything we needed and extra freezer was very nice to have for storing ice! Overall great bang for your buck! Would definitely stay here again!

Cabin is good. Nice little place. Nothing fancy but felt like home. New mini split work awesome even in. The mid day when it's the hottest. This is a 5bstar place for the price. Best fishing town in my opinion. Will be back

Beds were comfortable. Rooms were warm. Larger AC window units would help. Kitchen was adequate but non-stick frying pans would sure be an improvement. Shower was real good. Overall it was okay for a fishing trip

Thank you for your feedback. The window AC units are being replaced this week (6/24/2021) with 2 new mini-split units that will be much more efficient. Pans will also be replaced. We hope to see you again next time.

Not bad but not great.
Check in easy. House is as pictured. It’s old and in a fishing village which is ok with us because it’s why we come. No central air, just two window units. Became a little sticky at night. Mattress protectors are necessary but very hot as well. I opted for the couch under the window unit. My husband stayed in the bed. Also, the dishes we used had to all be washed prior to us using them. Don’t worry, if you’re next to stay, rest assured they are all clean. There is one burner on the stove that doesn’t work. We come to Mansfield a lot to fish and our normal property to book was already taken. This property worked for us but a little on the “for the guys only” type place. There was extra necessary items and the kitchen has dishes and pots and pans. Make sure to bring your own spices. Also, we bought fire ant poison and placed around the BBq pit area after my husband was attacked. So the property should be good to go for the next people staying there.

Thank you for your feedback. Our apologies for the dirty dishes. The cleaning crew has been addressed. Please know while staying in any of our homes we are available 24/7 and would have been more than happy to take care of the ants. But we sure appreciate you handling them. We have replaced the mattresses with nice cooling gel memory foam mattresses in June 2021. The home is scheduled to to have 2 mini-split AC units installed the end of June 2021. We hope to see you again in the future.

Property was in a great location to the marina. It was a good fishing trip rental for a few Men. The property was older but in ok shape. If I had one complaint it would be the mattresses definitely need replaced.

Did not like my stay
Did not sleep well due to mattresses making a lot of noise as well as the AC unit was really loud and would turn off and on during the night. The kitchen didn’t have good pots and everything would stick. There was no blender to make a smoothie in the morning. Kitchen stuff was kind of old like utensils and pots and some electronics. We had a leak outside and the manager was nice and polite and sent someone to fix it in a timely matter. I would not stay there again due to the fact that I couldn’t sleep and didn’t have the right kitchen supplies to cook breakfast in the am.

We apologize for the oversight on a blender, a new one has now been stocked in the home. Upon inspection I did notice you had issues with the new stainless steel frying pan sticking and burning. The pan has been cleaned and all is once again well. Mattresses have been replaced with nice cooling gel memory foam as of June 2021. New mini-split AC units are scheduled to be installed the end of June 2021. Thanks for staying with us.
