As described and more

The location is perfectly placed between Rockport and Aransas Pass. Very quiet property. We felt very safe. Very clean neighbors and subdivision. Clear instructions to check in and checkout without all the typical high demand cleaning requests you typically see in rentals. We would definitely stay again.
