Perfect unwind

We only had three days to Spring Break- and we made them count. The property was ON the beach, with a porch worth spending time on. The sliding doors to the living room and kitchen made our time at the property perfectly beach-y. My husband and sons are warship aficionados so the USS Lexington VISIBLE from the house was a delight. My crew kept complimenting me on the rental, so THANKS for the win! :)

Great place!

Beautiful place to stay! Clean house, nicely made beds, full kitchen for cooking, and exactly as advertised. The beach is so close and barely had any other people around this area of beach while we stayed there. We loved the 1 1/2 mile sidewalk along the beach that led all the way to the USS Lexington too. Would definitely return if the chance came again. Thanks!

Great Vacation Getaway

2nd time staying here, and it was great. The location is not crowded at all, and the property being so close to the bay makes it simple to fish or relax at the beach. Close to alot of good restaurants in Corpus or across the bridge in Portland. Plenty of room for our small family of 3. If you want to swim you'll need to drive to a different beach though...lots of jellyfish. We look forward to staying again soon!

We spent most of our time on the balcony porch relaxing and watching the ocean. My husband spent most of his time in the hammock. Close to town and the USS Lexington.

Great place! Great Location!

This place is a great place to kick back, relax and enjoy your ocean view. The deck overlooking the ocean is very spacious and the house itself is a hidden gem. You're steps away from the beach and the walking path that will take you to the aquarium and the USS Lexington. The beds were very comfortable and the space is very inviting. We will definitely stay again if we are ever in the area. Highly recommended.
