General Overview
Rockport is a small coastal town located on the Texas Gulf. The town has a ton of fishing opportunities, birding, art and other outdoor water activities. It is located 45 minutes via car from Corpus Christi, Texas. The city itself has a beautiful public access beach that is perfect for kids. Port Aransas is located only 30 minutes away should you wish to be in the thick of the party scene! Rockport is perfect for family getaways and has close enough proximity to South Texas for hunting or fishing adventures as well.
With enough notice we are happy to show you around San Antonio if you fly in there before you drive to Rockport. We are also willing to host in Rockport and take you fishing as well for the right reciprocal opportunity.
The Space
4 bedroom 4 bath (all on suite). Two king size beds in two masters. The other two bedrooms are bunk rooms (one sleeps 6 and the other sleeps 4). All bedrooms have bathrooms attached. Our home is on an island community and directly on the water. We have access to a community pool as well and depending on the guest we may throw in use of our golf cart during your stay. The home is close enough to restaurants and the grocery store to travel by golf cart!
The backyard is directly on the water and you can fish from the dock. We have 5 kayaks, life jackets, a fire pit as well as a pellet grill for you to use. We have a lovely, covered porch for outside covered dinning as well.
Guest Access
The house is all one floor and comes with an e-lock for easy access. There is plenty of room for parking as well
Notes
Backyard is fenced and has a private dock. There are boat rentals close by and enough space to tie up a boat on our dock. The community pool is close by as well as is a private eating club that can be utilized as well.

Neighbourhood
The entire neighborhood is on a private island. The walking is amazing on the island with beautiful views of Aransas Bay.
Getting to my home
From Corpus Christi just head north on HWY 35 directly to Rockport. Its about 45 minutes from there. From San Antonio head South on HWY 37 and then exit HWY 188 and drive directly to Rockport for a total of 2.5 hours.
Nearest airport
The closest airport is Corpus Christi International located in Corpus Christi, Texas USA. It is a 45 minute drive to the airport from the house. If you are flying in consider flying into San Antonio International Airport as it is much larger and only 2.5 hours from the house. We can also meet and give a tour of San Antonio as well.
Getting Around
You can easily traverse Rockport in a car. Most things are accessible via golf cart. There are multiple islands in the bay system around Rockport that are accessible only via boat and they are virtually all public. This is a great opportunity to enjoy a picknick completely isolated on a island!
