We stayed at this canal front home for 10 days with my family. My boys loved the fishing from the canal and used the kayaks to go out to the bay and numerous islands just a short paddle from the house.
The interior was very spacious with lots of seating in the family room for evening watching TV and playing games at the dining table. I love cooking and found everything I needed to make all the meals, especially the freshly caught trout and redfish that my kids brought home. (my family that lives in Rockport, have a boat)
The neighborhood is very quiet and friendly & Palm Harbor Marina is at the end of the street.
You won't be disappointed !
I had a great time here and will return in the future.

I had a great time here and will return in the future.
My brother and I had devised a cunning plan—a week of "remote work" from a Vrbo haven, strategically nestled between Rockport and Aransas Pass. It was a place where mornings started with the pull of fish on the line, and afternoons hummed with the sound of keyboards beneath the reliable comfort of air conditioning.
The house itself, perched just five minutes from world-class fishing by boat, was more than a mere backdrop to our adventures. With WiFi strong enough to rival any office connection, we seamlessly toggled between spreadsheets and tackle boxes. The kitchen—well-stocked and ample—kept us fueled for both work and play, whether it was early-morning coffee or post-fishing meals that tasted like victory.
And should the need arise to venture into civilization, both Rockport and Aransas Pass were mere minutes away, perfect for quick restocks on groceries or—more importantly—tackle. In short, this place didn’t just fit our week—it elevated it.
If you're seeking a retreat where you can blend the grind with the glide of a boat on the water, look no further.
