Perfect Family Getaway for Kayaking, Fishing, and Relaxation!

Our stay at the Bay House was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the place was spotless and incredibly well-maintained. Beds are extremely comfortable as well! The communication with the host was seamless, making check-in and check-out a breeze. The pier is well lit at night and the benches are nice. We were excited to catch a 34” shark, several trout, and gafftops off the pier. Great location for kayaking as well. This vacation rental provided everything we needed for a memorable family vacation. We can't wait to return! Highly recommended!

Memorable Family Vacation at Rockport - 5 Stars!

We had an absolutely wonderful time during our stay at Rockport! The accommodations were excellent, providing everything we needed for a perfect family vacation. The pier was a true highlight of our trip as we managed to catch a 23" Redfish and even a 2.5 ft shark - a thrilling experience for the whole family! The kids had a blast crabbing and swimming in the water right out back, making cherished memories. A big thank you to the VRBO hosts for making our stay truly remarkable. We are already looking forward to returning next year for another fantastic adventure! Highly recommended! - The Davis & Moore Family

Beautiful peoperty and

This was one of the better properties we’ve stayed. Everything was better than expected except for few things that needed an attention. First was the entrance to the main door and its code was inoperable which was a known issue but I wasn’t apprised until I had to reach out to the property management for troubleshooting. Second,, the mattress in one of the main bedroom was old and saggy which was covered up with a memory foam that didn’t resolve the problem and caused every night of tossing and turning trying to find a comfortable position. Finally, the floor inside the house seemed to be uncleaned from the previous visitors because it was definitely noticeable on our bare feet. Overall, my family and I enjoyed the stay and it’s beautiful view of the water from the property and will consider revisiting in the future.
