Great place in the heart of Rockport!

My family and I had a wonderful stay in Rockport! The location couldn't be better, right in the middle of everything. I was initially a bit concerned about parking, but it turned out to be no issue at all. The place was clean, comfortable, and a perfect fit for out family of 4. We'd gladly stay here again on a future visit to Rockport.

The Host was very clear that parking was off site, so no surprises there. However, it would have been helpful to have been provided a small street map with the free parking streets marked. We were given the names of the streets in advance, but had difficulty finding them because we didn't know the town nor knew which streets streets were one way or how far the streets were from the rental. A simple marked map would have been very helpful.

Fabulous VRBO!

We absolutely loved staying here. It was great to be in the center of the Bearskin Neck area of Rockport. The apartment was charming and had everything we needed. I was a bit worried because there was no parking on site, but we found ample parking an extremely short distance away—even I, with 5 joint replacements had no trouble with the parking! I would definitely stay here again. Definitely a five star experience in my book!

We enjoyed our stay. Check in was easy and the location was fantastic! We could walk to everything in town. The beds were comfortable. The air conditioner works well, but is located in one bedroom, which makes it not as comfortable for the people staying in the second bedroom.
