Nice, but….

Overall, this is a nice place to stay. Just not for us. After staying here, I can now interpret the description better. This is a nice house but they are only renting out 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. They have closed off a hallway to separate the “apartment”. It’s clean, the beds are comfortable and the outdoor space is nice. Unfortunately, there is not an area inside to gather (there were 3 of us). There are only the two bedrooms. Instead of a kitchen area, there is an apartment sized refrigerator, a microwave and a Keurig coffee maker. We set up a portable table (that we brought) so we could have a place to put our snacks and things. It just felt very cramped. The owner was wonderful. She communicated quickly and efficiently. Again, nice place but just not what we needed.

Great clean place with a nice lighted fishing pier. Drums were biting great on dead shrimp off the left corner. Bedrooms were clean with sofas to relax on besides the bed. Price is perfect for a great fishing getaway.

Review

We booked our stay for the proximity to South Padre yet more rural. The description stated that the it was "an entire home" when in fact it was the side entrance to an area of two bedrooms with a frig, microwave and toaster oven in the hallway between the two rooms with the no eating area except outside. We returned from sightseeing on the 2nd night to find several unwanted insects running around. We actually felt uncomfortable staying a 3rd night and checked out early. The host was quick to respond and stated that they would promptly spray, but no compensation was made. The view of the bay was beautiful and the bed was very comfortable.

Very nice place. With owners on-site, you might feel like you are intruding, but it’s not an issue. No kitchen or fridge so don’t brings groceries but it’s way better than a hotel in Kingsville. Great fishing pier. Beautiful views.

Baffin Bay Fishing Pier and Back Deck

This is the perfect setup for an outdoor cooking and fishing relaxing vacation. Plenty of parking for a truck and boat. Easy drive to a public ramp. The back deck had plenty of room to relax, the bbq grill area was awesome. The private fishing pier had a lit up walk way with a big green fishing light, and property was really well kept. We caught plenty for trout off the dock. The bed was very comfortable, the oversized jetted tub was a nice way to wrap up your day. Within a hour and half of Padre Island, which we enjoyed that without pup. Gerri and Art were great people, easy going, and hospitable. We will return for another vacation. Was a great trip!

Hidden Gem

From the moment I arrived at this hidden gem, it was clear I had discovered a slice of paradise. Nestled in a serene, private location, this property was a dream come true for anyone seeking tranquility. The rooms, surrounded by lush greenery and water views, offered complete privacy, making it feel like I was in my own secluded world. Every aspect of the rooms was impeccable. The interior was elegantly furnished, blending comfort with style. The bedroom was cozy, offering a peaceful night's sleep. This VRBO property wasn't just a place to stay; it was a retreat that rejuvenated my spirit. For those seeking a private escape from the hustle and bustle, this property is a must-visit. It's a rare find that deserves every one of its five stars!

kind of ackward

First off it doesn't say anywhere that the owners live in the same house that you are staying in and the division between myself and the owners was divided by a flimsy thin movable wall. The listing shows that it can sleep five, but it only had two beds one king size and one queen size bed. I don't believe this is the owner's fault and I feel it is more VRBO that needs to change the way its listed. The place is nice if you don't mind sharing the house with the owners. I would have spent the money for a place with more room and privacy if it would have been listed correctly. Vrbo need to fix the listing!
