Great spot to get away!

This property was absolutely beautiful. The cottage was clean when we arrived and looked just like the pictures on the website. The spacious grounds and pond were all we and our dog could ask for. Lots of wildlife could be seen on a daily basis. Just a 5-minute drive from town, it was very conveniently located. Vacasa quickly responded every time we reached out to them.We only had a couple of concerns with the property. First, the stairs and decks around the cottage could use some maintenance. There were nails sticking up in quite a few places. Also, it would have been really nice to have a vacuum cleaner available for us to use during a 2-month stay.

Very clean

The property was nice and the house was very clean. The bed is very firm so bring a mattress pad if you sleep on your side. The people staying in the cabin next to us did not leash their dogs and stood outside chain smoking so it made it undesirable to be outside and not easy to walk our dogs to go to the bathroom. Had the neighbors not been there, it would have been much better.

Absolutely Stunning!

This property is absolutely beautiful! With the pond, perfectly manicured lawn, and breath taking sunsets. Our dog loved chasing his ball in the yard and swimming in the pond. Great place for a family retreat

It's everything they said it would be

What a picturesque, peaceful setting...on a well-managed compound that is perfectly maintained. It might be relatively small, but it has such charm and a great layout with a vaulted living room ceiling; it feels wonderfully roomy. The entire cottage is updated, super clean and tastefully decorated! Even the sofa couch was comfortable (I brought a cot-sized padding for good snoozing). The bedroom is beautifully appointed with a large bed; the bathroom has a terrific bathtub and nice sink and lighting. So close to Corpus Christi, but tons of things to do in town. Get the pizza at The Groove - amazing! Our Family Kitchen offers a really tasty breakfast. We loved our stay and commend the owners on such a relatively affordable way to enjoy the area.

Exactly what I pictured

I’ve been fooled by pics on these sites before. That isn’t the case here. The property is every bit as beautiful as the pictures suggest. The cottage itself was clean and had great amenities. Everything in the kitchen was put in easy to find, logical places. The bed was comfortable and so was the couch and chair. The property itself is very well maintained as well. The pond had clear water so you could see the fish and my dogs loved running around sniffing everything in sight. The fire pit is huge and there’s a giant stack of logs ready to be burned. The cottage also has lighters in plain view to help you get the fire started. All in all, I have every intention of coming back.
