Historic home with tons of character
This home was large enough for two families and only a few blocks from the water and quaint shopping. Beds are comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Absolutely loved staying here! The fact that it is a historical home makes the stay so special. The rooms are large and pair well with the history of the house. The pool is a great bonus, but there are no rails or anything to assist with getting in and out. I know the house is old, but the stairs leading to the house are extremely worn. The wood is rotted and the one of the hand rails was about to collapse. Regardless of all that, we had a great time and would love to visit again.

Beautiful old house
Wonderful historic home in heart of Rockport. Large fenced yard and sparkling pool. Kitchen is well outfitted and big dinning table is great for gathering to eat or play board games. (There are some good games provided.) Limited comfy seating indoors, but great outdoor furniture.

The yellow house is vast! The ceilings are so tall. I loved the decor, old & unique. Due to the height of the bedroom ceilings, I suggest closing the kitchen vent while sleeping. It is walking distance to the kid friendly ocean with picnic tables, grills & tiki cabanas, though driving was preferred in the hot heat. The small pool in the backyard was a wonderful addition. We lived in it. There are sections of the beach that are dog friendly. I even met 2 cats on a leash! The HEB had good groceries & the kitchen had just about everything we needed. For the best breakfast tacos visit Rositas. It is worth the wait!!

Stay in a piece of History
It was a cool but quirky historical home to stay in. What was quirky; the hot and cold faucets were on opposite sides of some sinks. If you like staying in an old historical houses this is a fun one. Loved all the history inside. However, some negatives on our particular trip. The pool was green when we first arrived. The pool guy came shortly after us and noted that it looked like the family before us allowed a dog to swim in the pool. So it was a bummer not to enjoy the pool the first night. However, by the next evening the pool was fine. The only other downside outside is the ants. There were tons of ants everywhere. Could not enjoy sitting on the deck by the pool due to ants. As far as safety, the smoke detectors were not installed where they should be. One started beeping as the battery needed to be installed. It was laying on a table in the room my son stayed in and he took the battery out so he could sleep. The doors were difficult to open for my daughter. So with smoke detectors not properly placed, and if there was a fire it would have been difficult for her to get out. There was also a nail sticking up in the tv room floor. I could not locate anything to hammer it down so moved a chair over it. Only other thing to note for check in, is there is a lock box to a key to the laundry room below the house. But there was no lock on the door. Just walk right in to under the house.

The Gem of Rockport.
We stayed for about a week.
We really enjoys the history of this home.
The home was well stocked for cooking, linens, and paper goods. We really didn’t want to leave.
The pool looks small but I was perfect for us. The street was nice abs quiet during the day and night. Being able to have our dogs with us at the dog friendly rental was a huge plus.
There are some things to note.
We are a family of three people. If there was more of us there would be no real comfortable place to sit and enjoy the living room. We never got the tv to work even though we have the same set up at home. It was okay for us because we took it as a sign to not watch anything for the week.
The pictures that advertise this property are dated. Three room that show pretty vintage wall paper are white wooden walls now. That was okay for us.
The property is beautifully fenced but keep in mind it’s and old antique fence and if you have a small dog it could get out.
