Snowbirds heading south

This is an older home that had some remodeling done. It worked out very well for the 4 of us. Especially having 2 bathrooms. With the fenced in back yard it made it easy to relax. 20 minutes from just about any direction’s you’ll find something to do, eat, or drink. If you’re a sports fan I recommend a must see Double Day Bar My thoughts are that this place gets 4.5 outa of 5. And would come back if in the area. A special thanks too Hillary. KnSnCnD

Nice little house with big backyard

House was perfect for our trip. Was close to all the amenities and easy to get to. The driveway was only able to fit 2 pickup trucks and the other vehicles had to park on the street. Overall was a great house and would stay there again. Hillary was a great host and very responsive to any questions!

About the host

Host profile image
Hello fellow travelers! We are Hillary, James and Holland! Welcome to our vacation home! Our little family currently lives in McAllen, TX…about an hour and a half Northwest of Port Isabel. We love taking weekend trips to South Padre Island for some family fun at the beach and absolutely adore Port Isabel on our way there. The town square with the Lighthouse, shops, restaurants and Pirate’s Landing Pier is one of our favorite places to visit. That’s why we decided to make it our permanent vacation home location.

Why they chose this property

Port Isabel is an adorable, walkable little town! Our personal favorite, the Hopper Haus Bar and Grill, is such a welcoming little pub! It’s just a short walk from the house! The best part, it’s family friendly and has a beer garden with live music! Once we’ve enjoyed a bite to eat and some delicious drinks, we walk over to the Lighthouse square for some dessert and coffee, browse the cute little boutiques and hang out at the Pirate’s Landing Pier! The locals are lovely and everyone is so nice. We enjoy every moment when we visit!

What makes this property unique

Location! Location! LOCATION! This home is walking distance to pretty much anything you want or need! The neighborhood is quiet and it’s a short drive to beach access! Also, the large backyard provides plenty of space for our dogs and our toddler to roam safely.
